We should probably spend the first few minutes getting OS-X to be a little more helpful instead of straight Fuzzy-Warm®. Did you get a two-button mouse with scroll wheel? Drop what you're doing and go get one. Mine's Microsoft (gasp) wireless. Highly recommended. Standard Mac users are used to singl...

You used the wrong words. If there was an image on your LaCie drive, you wouldn't be able to open up any music files. An Image is a single file with the extension DMG (Disk Image). It's a compressed compilation of everything on your hard drive and you can't go in later to "get" stuff unles...

Here's the piece I was thinking about. This is the long version of "No."

In Win2K, there were two different sound panels, Record and PlayBack. I don't know how it works in WinXP, but I can tell you that you're adjusting the wrong service.

See if that helps.

<<<Does anyone know if it's possible to work across platforms on the same project? >>> Yes I do know. No. Before everybody gets all jump up and downy, If you're enough of a techie, you can move a project between computers and platforms, but trust me, it's not pretty. Open up an AUP file in WordPad a...

And as a compulsive Mac user, I can ask you if you made a Disk Image of your old system drive before you got rid of it? Just before my iBook licked the last ice cream cone, I was able to connect a FireWire drive and Image the whole system drive. As it turned out, I didn't need it, but if I discovere...

I think I may have posted some thoughts about this on the other section. Several people make devices that you can plug your microphone into and that remove everything below 100Hz. Some choose 120Hz. While the human voice does have stuff down that low, most of it doesn't contribute at all to the qual...

Can you tell if the music cut was an MP3 file? Do you have Windows set to show you file extensions? I've run into times when Windows Media Player has tried to "help me" with MP3 files and I didn't much like the help. You played the song through beginning to end once, closed it, then opened...

As a compulsive engineer I must point out that it's possible to manually change the AUP file in TextEdit to reflect where you actually put your sound clips after you moved them. For example: /FireWireDrive/MyMusic/MyClips/Piano2.wav The next time you launch Audacity, it will read your changes and ma...

Let me rephrase that a little. "I'm trying to move an Audacity Project from an old computer to a new one." Open up your AUP file in TextEdit and read it. Every time you pass a listing that looks like this: aliasfile='/Users/koz/Desktop/piano2.wav' That is a very specific location where Aud...
