Audacity Forum

Go to the Interface tab of Preferences and under "Behaviors", put a check mark by "Editing a clip can move other clips". It is on by default, so you must have unchecked it.

every time I start it up, it says "Couldn't find symbol "main" in a dynamic library (eppror 127: the specified procedure could not be found.)" What version of Windows, and are you just double-clicking the executable? Have you got all the files in the zip and are you running them...

So, it looks like there's something with the un-patched/raw Windows (Win XP Pro, no service packs, no patches) that's causing the grief... or does Audacity and/or lame_enc.dll require .NET Framework to be installed? Someone else on a fully patched Windows XP SP3 system had the same problem and help...

What is the basis of the timestamp - time when you recorded the file or file modified time? If you used File > Export Multiple (the most efficient method, because you could export the files all at one go) the files would all have near identical timestamps. If the file modified time is what you want ...

This one better work. http://drop.io/mikehunt Thanks. The file imports fine in 1.3.8 Alpha (Unicode), either via FFmpeg or the inbuilt FLAC importer. This might possibly be due to some improvements we have made in metadata tag handling since 1.3.7. If you want to try it, download this: http://www.g...

Tell us more about this file - what exact format is it? does it play in other applications? It's a wav file. It won't open in itunes or wmplayer. I left the computer on record by accident - that's why the file is 3 gig. Recorded by what application - Audacity 1.3.6? Try 1.3.7 - I know people have o...

I have the same problem with 1.3.7. Whenever I try to import a FLAC it says it couldn't find ffmpeg, and I have to idea how to get it. As fas as I can see on their site I have to compile it myself. After telling we that, Audacity crashes. You can import FLAC with the Audacity built-in FLAC importer...

3) Because the shell open command path stored in the registry no longer exists (C:Program FilesAudacityaudacity.exe), Vista does not display Audacity in the Open With context menu even though the appropriate registry keys exist./ 5) Vista still fails to display Audacity in the Open With... dialog a...

I don't know how Windows handles the file, but WAV file size as far as I know is set in the headers as an unsigned 4 byte integer, which imposes a 4 GB limit (not 2 GB). The problem is that many applications interpret the file length as a signed number, which imposes a 2 GB limit. Are you sure Audac...
