Re: Could not save project perhaps disk is full

It may not be the same issue. To avoid confusing the other topic, I started a new topic for you. Audacity 2.0.3 is very old. Audacity versions before 2.1.2 are prone to "Cannot save project". What you should have done, assuming you had blue waves visible, was to export as WAV as a workarou...

Re: Trying to recover lost project data after exporting audi

What version of Audacity are you using? Please give us all three numbers from Help > About Audacity... . So did you never do File > Save Project... ? If you don't have the current Audacity 2.1.2 version, the default temporary directory Audacity uses can be cleaned up without warning by Norton or oth...

Re: AUP File will not open

AUP is a text file. Open it in a text editor (notepad?) and read it. It should contain semi-English programming instructions. One of my older ones, spread out for visibility looks like this. If you have scrambled trash or all the same character, then your AUP file is bad. Koz I just tried this righ...

Re: How to audio-scrub on Macbook Pro

Coming from Final Cut Pro X to Audacity, allow me to heartily second the notion that timeline scrubbing in Audacity is a really miserable experience, particularly on a MacBook Air. I expect to be able to slide the waveform to the left or to the right, thereby changing what part of the waveform I am...

Re: Audacity won't record [SOLVED]

Issue resolved. I uninstalled my sound card and reinstalled it in Windows 10. That did the trick. I'm glad it seems to have been resolved. When you reinstalled did you then run "SBA5_PCDRV_L11_3_01_0046.exe" again? Yes sometimes uninstalling before reinstalling can help. Some installers w...

Re: Audacity suddenly won't open

I don't know if the permissions error that was noticed is the cause or a symptom. Have you installed KXStudio or JACK before the problem started? You can also ask on the Ubuntu forums if there is any significance in the lo server message. I don't see that message launching Audacity on Ubuntu 14.04. ...

Re: RECORDING [SOLVED]

I will mark this topic {SOLVED] and lock it as this has drifted away from the original subject.

If you have any more problems recording computer playback, please just start a new topic.

Re: Settings and Input levels - URGENT HELP PLEASE.

We do not make or verify YouTube videos. You would be far better following our official documentation. Then you won't have mismatch between documentation and software.

Re: Audacity won't record

Do you have the guitar and mic connected to the mixer then the mixer connected to Line-In of SoundBlaster? When you change host do you also check the Audacity recording device is the Line-In? When you change host does the Audacity Recording Slider ungrey? http://manual.audacityteam.org/m/images/2/2b...

Re: Audacity suddenly won't open

Where did this Audacity 2.1.2 come from, exactly? Did you build it yourself? Did you install it, if so, where? Where are you executing Audacity from? It appears to be a permissions problem: 15:45:06: Audacity 2.1.2 15:45:06: Error: Impossible to get permissions for file '/home/brian/.audacity-data/p...
