Audacity Forum

Sorry! I didn't expect to be back so soon. But I noticed that the process you outlined (prior to your Roxio revelation) employed Audacity 1.3. The web site recommends that for Windows 7 or Vista; I'm still using XP. Does that mean I should stick with 1.2? And what adjustments should I then make to t...

EXPLETIVE DELETED Of course I have the Roxio that came with my PC. That must be the problem. It won't format any music files for finalization. I guess I'm up against it.

Correct: I emailed it to a friend and he could not play it on his PC. I can play it on mine. And it is definitely a .WAV file. And yes, Windows shows my file extensions. Warren So the recorded audio can be played on my computer but nowhere else. Even if you email a song to your mom, she can't play i...

Why am I unable, in either the 1.2 Audacity or the Beta, to finalize in Roxio on Windows XP the .WAV files I export to my PC?
