Doesn’t matter what application I import the file into You have a damaged file. We're not in Play The File any more. We're in Disaster Recovery . Somebody actually had to do this recently and I'm looking for the posting. It involves File > Import > Raw Data (scroll down). http://manual.audacityteam...

Oh. OK. We can't always tell how far along you are. Let's see. I don't use the same download everybody else does. Click on the desktop. Go > Download. You should see the file from the download.
