Re: Missing audio data block file(s)

I changed the name of my audacity project An Audacity project is not a single file. It is a "project file" (which has ".AUP" as the file extension) AND the audio data. In saved projects, the audio data is usually in a folder that has the same name as the project with "_data...

and export that selection to a new file named buttonClick.wav.
What format? "16-bit Microsoft PCM WAV"?

Perhaps the sound is too short for Firefox. Try a longer WAV file from Audacity (the same click with more trailing silence may work).

Re: Cannot open IMA ADPCM WAV file

If the header is damaged, and the file is IMA ADPCM (as reported by VLC), the Audacity will probably not be able to read it. If it plays in VLC, then you could use VLC to convert it to another format (such as 16-bit PCM WAV). If VLC can't play it, then the file may not be recoverable, but if it is e...
