You probably managed to delete separate FFMpeg software which is required to open and play M4A files. On Mac you can tell Audacity in the Extended Import Preferences to try the QuickTime importer first for M4A files, so you don't have to use FFmpeg for importing M4A files. To do that, press "A...

Please check you don't have a selection in another track extending from zero to 2 minutes. If so, click in that track then press the mauve |<< button or press HOME on your keyboard. That puts the cursor at time zero and new recordings will start from there. Make sure Transport > Sound Activated Reco...

It unzips correctly even if dragged elsewhere. That error usually means there is already a folder with the same name that you are trying to extract to. Unzip to another name. The extracted "bandstop.ny" needs to be in the root of the "Plug-Ins" folder, not in another folder insid...
