Audacity Forum

Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried opening a new window and while it doesn't create another ghost block, the ghost from the first window remains after I close that window. Also, I can't say that it happens with any regularity or schedule. It just seems to occur at times. I think I've restarted...

When I use the Audacity (2.1.0) recording window, it creates an opaque white window behind it that remains on my screen after I move or close the recording window. It doesn't do it every time, but fairly frequently. The only way I can seem to get ride of it is to close and reopen Audacity. I run OS ...

Does Audacity 2.0.6 operate pretty much the same as the earlier version? I'm comfortable with the fairly basic processes I now use and worry that if the new version is different, I won't be able to figure it out. I'm not particularly computer savvy as you can probably guess.

I erased Audacity and downloaded it again. Seems to be working now.

I'm listening through powered external speakers, which is what I've always used. The window next to the speaker reads Soundflower (64ch), which I think it what it's always read. The only other choice in the drop down menu is Soundflower (2ch) and when I click on that I get no sound, either. But when...

All of a sudden, I'm getting no audible sound from playback on Audacity. The left and right markers are moving, but no sound is coming out. I probably did something to make this happen. Any idea how I can fix this? Thanks.

All of a sudden, Audacity has begun to playback again. So I suppose the problem solved itself, at least for now.

I haven't changed anything. It's played back through the external speakers I have plugged in since I set it up when the new iMac arrived two weeks ago. If anything got changed, it was an accident. I haven't intentionally changed anything.

Audacity has, all of a sudden, ceased to play back. When I click the play button an Error window pops up that reads: "Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate."
Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Thanks for any help.

Bill - Thanks a million. I gotta say, though, it's about a thousand times more complicated than Total Recorder on Windows. I read through the Soundflower instructions/tutorial, and I don't understand even half of it. One quick question: If I don't intend to add any sounds to what I'm recording - if ...
