Audacity Forum

If I'm reading you correctly, the program actually keeps opening a new session each time you close one -- right? Try this: Select Edit > Preferences , click the Interface tab, then make sure to check the box that says "Quit Audacity upon closing last window." Worked for me, and when I had the box un...

I had similar problems with the first CD drive I owned that would write CD-R's. I couldn't play back music CD's that I'd made on it reliably on my old boom box (over 15 years old) -- had to get something new to play them on. With the drives on my newer computers I have no problems; and my car player...

I'm usin...
