What version of Audacity and version of OS X? Please see the pink panel at the top of this page. I am a novice Audacity user. I recorded a dear friend's memorial to my computer using a line-in to Audacity. I didn't read the audacity manual and wrongly assume Audacity worked like other media programs...

I have a small problem with a Project. I actually made a copy of my main project and tried different tools and features on the copy audacity Project and now, Audacity cannot open the copy at all and it says for the main one that "audio data files are missing". How did you make a copy? You...

Have a look at http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/am ... alize.html. Normalize removes differences between the peak volume of multiple tracks.

You should not move AUP file and _data folder around while Audacity is open, if that is what you mean. In fact you should not move AUP file and _data folder around in Explorer at all. If you still have the whole performance available and open, try saving it to your desktop. You can move it around la...

What version of Audacity are you using? Please see the pink panel at the top of the page. It would have been better to ask for help before replacing everything with silence. Audacity only did what you asked. What you could have done is given us the content of Help > Show Log... which might have give...

It would be nice to add a blank label track after each audio track when I use the .lof file. Or, maybe do this with some type of chain command. I could then sync lock the tracks and then do the align end to end. Audacity exports multiple label tracks as one track, so I end up with the one blank lab...
