Re: Audacity won't import mp3's anymore

Your post arrived while I was typing my previous reply.

Go into preferences (from the Edit menu) and in the "Directories" section check the location of the Audacity temp folder.

The first thing to check is that Audacity really is (not) doing what you think it is (not) doing.
