Audacity Forum

Gale,
All the info. by right clicking on the speaker icon works fine.
I have found computers have a mind of there own - perhaps the threat of the sledgehammer made it work?
I hope all this effort will benefit other users if they have the same problem.
Thank you once again.
Brian.

Thank you all for your advice and assistance. Yesterday Audacity finally worked - and today it is still working. Thor 21344 "He was able to recover all my files and most of my programmes" I regret if my information was confusing. When the computer enginner replaced my C Drive with a brand new one he...

Gale, It does seem that the sound divice is causing the problem. My computer is a DEll XPS 430 - originally using VIsta, but as soon as Windows 7 became available I converted the operating system.

Hi Koz, Glad to hear from you again. Initally downloaded Audacity 2.0 from sourceforge and on the next three occasions. The last two times I've downloaded from CNET Download.com.

I have not ...

Thanks for your prompt reply. My Windows 7 was upgraded from Vista. As I have been using Audacity for some years without any problems I must have had older versions, the latest being Audacity 1.3 Beta.I almost certainly had Audacity 1.2 installed. I am not running Audacity on a network - just this c...

Koz, Each time I installed Audacity I restarted the computer. If you mean by a 'Dead Stop' a complete shutdown no, but I have since receiving your post removed Audacity (for the 4th. time), re-installed it and shut down the computer completely. I have now powered up the computer and the problem is s...

My computer is Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. I have been using Audacity for some years without trouble. Four weeks ago I downloaded the new version Audacity 2.0. I keep getting the message The system has detected another copy of Audacity is running. I have checked Programmes and searched for additi...
