Audacity Forum

Gale, Here are the last two crash reports — in two successive [osts because of their size — both with 2.0.4 after I had shut my computer down and later restarted it. I tried twice before abandoning 2.0.4. I then uninstalled and deleted 2.0.4, but if necessary I can download another copy. I am having...

Thanks, Bill.

PS: Well, here is my answer to my own question. After submitting the above post, I shut my computer down. A little later, I started it again — and I can no longer import audio files into Audacity 2.0.4 (even though there are no longer any audio files with accents or Umlauts in their names or those o...

Thanks, Gale, for your comprehensive reply to my last post. Previously, I had tried rebooting my computer 3 times after renaming the file I was using to experiment with (and once before renaming it), with no success. In response to your recommendation, I now tried Import/Audio and Audacity 2.0.4 cra...

I should have been clearer in describing my problem. If I drag an aiff file to the Audacity 2.0.4 icon, Audacity starts, does not crash, but does not load the aiff file.

The string of posts on this subject that concludes with this one: Re: Audacity Quit Unexpectedly (Crashes on Bootup)[SOLVED] Permanent link to this post Posted by drewilliam » Sat Sep 07, 2013 10:23 pm I figured ...

That's immensely useful, Steve. The scroll bar underneath the tracks is much too rough and ready, and just using the left and right arrows by themselves only useful for detailed work. Thank you very much, and my apologies for not picking your reply up and thanking you earlier — but I thought I would...

Audacity 2.0.3 on Mac mini (2012) with OS 10.8.4 I have only recently started using Audacity (having for many years used another recording application), so please forgive this very naive question. I cannot find out, either by experimenting or by reading the documentation, how to move the cursor rapi...

Thanks for that warning, Gale. At the moment the things I need to search for are pretty basic and will probably not be that much different in 2.0.4; but I will bear your warning in mind. I have also noted the limitations of the pdf versiuon of the Manual, but again it is turning out to be a simple a...
