<<<I found the saved AIFF file in documents as well as an .aup file,>>> You didn't say in your narrative that you Saved A Project, but you must have, because that's what creates the AUP file. The AUP file is the Audacity Project manager. It's a list of instructions, not a sound file. <<<I tried to l...

We always urge people, especially new Mac users, to stop using Audacity 1.2 and go on to 1.3.

You recorded a 24-minute side of vinyl, Saved a Project, and then it wouldn't playback in the Audacity timeline right then? Describe the exact steps before...

Assuming the drivers and Windows supports it. <<<bluetooth USB transmitter.>>> That may kill you right there. Two antennas, one inside...

Then we need to know what you were recording and how it was connected and to what kind of computer. You may now have a specific connection problem which we can't address because we don't have any specifics on your computer.
