Audacity Forum

I will paste the log in two parts as there is a maximum character limit on this forums When the file is very long, it is better to save the log and attach it as we requested. It is the same process as attaching an image. The maximum file size is 2 MB. Yeah the ""2.5 aztec part 2_data" folder just d...

I didn't post the second part of the log as it is just more of the same (a list of files it cant find). I looked up about the error and found that it was a proble, with the "avformat-55.dll" file. I downloaded as the Audacity website recommended and then located it within the program. Now it has mo...

As user "Gale" (admin) I saved "20170429 Tracks #58 hr 1 & 2.aup" in C:\Users\Public\Music\Audacity Projects. I could not save the AUP file name with a space after the final "2", as you seemed to have done. I logged in as a standard user and opened "20170429 Tracks #58 hr 1 & 2.aup" just fine. I hav...

The Audacity online manual has confused the crap out of me so if you reply do not refer me back to it. I need easy to follow instructions in plain English. There is someth...

I copied the AUP and DATA. Within the directory from where they started, they opened, but only with a flat line, just like the original. (During the copy, at least one file required me to enter my admin ID to complete the task.) I hope you don't mean within the same folder. You must never do that, ...

[...]If there are simple (non-network) permissions problems on the Public Folder or subfolders then you can fix these by right-click over the folder > Properties > Security tab. You need to be logged in with an admin account to make those changes. [...]I've looked at the security for the Directory,...
