Thanks Koz, Gale. Editing the audacity.cfg file directly did the trick. I installed and opened Audacity as myself, which has admin rights, so I don't know why Audacity couldn't update in /tmp (which was linked as /private/tmp), but I pointed it to my Desktop and so I'm good to go. Audacity should b...

ok I just did a recuva scan and it looks like it has all my data from yesterday and it shows it recoverable I'm recovering all the files now on an external hdd like it recommends, but how should I go about putting the parts together.
