Re: Time track

When I load several tracks at one time to do basic editing on, the last track loaded will have the time track above the work area correctly displayed. After I export that file and close it, the next track, and all subsequent tracks, do not correctly show the time track. Is this a setting I'm not fi...

I'm talking about the time track or scale that appears directly above the work area. It's grey and goes from 0 to the end of that particular track.

Re: How do I stop Audacity from saving a backup?

Every time I open a file and then save it as the same name Audacity saves a backup copy...i.e. If I open 001.wav and save it again as 001.wav Audacity will save the original as 001-old.wav, 001-old1.wav...etc. I would rather is NOT save old copies. You asked this question over two years ago. See ht...

Re: Audacity won't overwrite files, even when told to

OK, so playing around last night, I checked a few files in the folder that's been acting weird and that I haven't yet adjusted and, yes, they were marked as Read Only. When I removed this in Properties, then exported them from Audacity, I wasn't seeing the dupe files. When I just loaded a bunch mor...

Re: Audacity won't overwrite files, even when told to

I'm working with mp3 files in this case, and that's mostly what I work with since it's for my Zune player. I've never had this happen before and I only output mp3 files. I understand I'll have dupe files if I'm converting formats, but not when I'm opening an mp3 then exporting back to mp3. Then in ...

Re: Audacity won't overwrite files, even when told to

Running Audacity 2.0.5 on a Windows 7 64 Pro laptop. New weirdness just started happening tonight. After adjusting the amplification on a track (splitting to 2 tracks, amp'ing each track separately, then re-joining), then exporting, I get the usual "file exists, do you want to overwrite"? I say "ye...
