Re: Automatic Crash Recovery issue

Please look at the pink panel at the top of the page and tell us what version of Audacity you are using (all three numbers). Reinstalling Audacity does not reset your settings. To reset settings, quit Audacity, open Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder and type: ~/Library/Application Support/audacity/ I...

Re: Unexpected crashing and project recovery

Overall the software is great! At times, however, it will crash while in the middle of a recording. So that is very likely a problem with the audio device you are recording with. What device is that, for example a USB turntable or USB or Firewire interface? If it's an interface, does it have the co...

Re: can't locate libmp3lame.dylib

Installed Audacity 2.1.2 on my Mac running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 Downloaded the Lame_Library_v3.98.2_for_Audacity_on_OSX.dmg and that is in my "Downloads" folder. I double click that and it brings up a .pkg file in a window. I double click that and it asks me if i am sure I want to open i...

Re: can't locate libmp3lame.dylib

My Audacity exports MP3 just fine, but claims it's finding its lame dynamic library in a folder which doesn't exist. That is because opening "Locate" in Libraries Preferences just shows you the "MP3LibPath" specified in the audacity.cfg settings file, or the default location if ...

Re: Bizarre volume level issue with USB headset

Exactly what audio are you recording? Have you tried playing the audio you want to record, then opening Volume Mixer as in your screenshot and turning up the volume slider for the application that is playing the sound?

Re: how do I restore Project File from Raw files only?

is there any way that they can be sorted by time stamp order Yes but unless this is an unedited recording, the time stamps don't relate to the position of the AU files in the Audacity waveform. So you should try what Koz said. Get the name of the AUP file, "projname" in the AUP file and t...

Re: Exporting makes the project dirty (2.1.3-alpha)

It happens whether the metadata is viewed or not during the export process. I think that part is correct, because user may have changed the metadata before export. The best, of course, would be to check to see if the metadata had been changed before displaying the message, but of course that takes ...

Re: How to audio-scrub on Macbook Pro

Anybody who tries to use Audacity after successfully using a video editing program is horrified how difficult it is. No, you shouldn't turn the function on and off. It's completely seamless. My comments about turning scrubbing on an off were in relation to scrubbing in the waveform. If there is a s...

Re: how do I restore Project File from Raw files only?

Although not relevant to the issue, 2.0.1 is very old now. The current version is 2.1.2 from http://audacityteam.org/download/windows . When you open the AUP file now, what is the exact error message, word for word? Unless the project is an unedited recording, the AU files cannot be made into the or...
