Audacity Forum

To Steve and billw - Many thanks for the advice and suggestions forward.

My version ofAudacity on my laptop is 1.2.6 where as my desktop is 1.3.12-Beta(Unicode). Is this the reason the split function won`t work on my laptop?

I use the Edit - Split. It works on my desktop and not on my laptop.
The version of Audacity on my desktop is 1.3 Beta. The version on my laptop was downloaded recently and I cannot see anyversion numbers.

I have Audacity on both my desk top using Windows 7 and on my laptop using Windows XP. When I edit sound using the "split" function in my desktop it works perfectly satisfactory. But when I try to use it in my laptop it simply will not work. Can anyone suggest what is wrong?
