<<<download an mp3 ebook to my computer.>>> You need to talk a lot more about that. How do I reproduce the problem exactly? Do you have Show File Extensions selected in Windows?

<<<I lined his cassette deck into the mic input>>>

Probably not. Macs for a good long time have had Stereo Line-In on the side or back, not Mono Mic-In. Circle with two black arrows? That's the Line-In -- which is a good thing in your case.

Yes, but only after you also set it up in the Audacity Preference Panels. Audacity > Preferences > Audio I/O > Input. Also in that same panel, you must select Stereo and not Mono. Audacity > Preferences > Quality That one should be changed from 32-floating to 16 and 44100 sample rate. Restart Audaci...

<<<If a pop filter doesn't reduce sibilants neither will foam.>>> Some foams might help a little. Those little tie-tack microphones become slightly less bright when I put the foam blast filter on. This I have experienced with these fingers. That's why I pointed to them. The ad for Electro-Voice foam...

There is no stable 1.2 for Mac/Intel/Leopard. I bought my second Mac, a MacBook Pro that has problems with Audacity 1.2 in addition to 1.2 problems on my Intel Mac Mini. Audacity 1.2.6 never worked right and 1.2.5 is becoming more and more damaged. For us, the only stable production version is 1.3.7...

I've often wondered that. I have no idea because in spite of doing substantial production work in Audacity, I don't use Projects. I don't need multiple channel productions or do any of the other things that make Projects valuable. I export capture masters at the beginning, edit my brains out and exp...

I don't think a pop and blast filter will have any affect on high frequencies and sibilance at all. They're designed to be completely transparent to the performance except they need to stretch a bit in response to serious low frequency energy -- and thus gracefully suppress plosives and anything tha...

The blue waves on the screen are created by two or more picture files, not the show. If you start moving things around, it's perfectly possible to have all the waveforms and no show at all. There is a way to fix all this without moving your files around, but it means you have to manually write your ...

<<<I didn't consider I'd 'moved' anything as such.>>> Each folder in a computer has a name and is considered a "location." This name is recorded, literally, inside the programming of your Project. When I open up a Project, Audacity is going to look for my work in (for example) koz > Docume...
