OK, that one is safe as long as no errors get into the AUP file such as by hand edits of the file or imported audio files contain emoji or control characters.

I mean that the .aup file and .dat file shared an identical name with each other (projectname NEW), not identical with the old files, which would indeed be impossible. OK but it's a _data folder not a .dat file. To be clear: when I stupidly duplicated, as usual the Mac automatically added "cop...

he filenames are intentionally randomized and the only clue how they're supposed to go is each individual time and date stamp. Even if you do get those right, the Left/Right sound channel alternation may get scrambled. They will get scrambled on Mac because it doesn't yet have a file system that sh...

I spoke to one of the developers about this, and in principle he is open to including a high contrast theme in the Audacity version after next. No guarantees yet but if so, we wouldn't fix that the standard theme does not fully adjust to operating system High Contrast Themes. That fix is a lot of wo...

Change the "New length" box in "Change Speed" to hh:mm:ss + samples (click the downwards-pointing triangle) then set the speed change according to the exact length you need. I can't find this triangle you said. You mean going to "effects ->change speed"? I only get &qu...

2.0.5 is ancient. In that version, if any clip is 2^31 samples or greater of audio (just over 13.5 hours at 44100 Hz) then the entire project reopens with orphan block files. If you have 15 minute tracks that is not the case for you, but you should be aware of the danger of running obsolete versions...

Thanks for the version number. It's a little old, but not the cause of the problem.

would this fix also work with the missing ACX Check plugin? It is working on my MacBook Air (mid 2013) running El Capitan 10.11.6. However, it is missing on my MacBook Pro (mid 2015) running Mac OS Sierra 10.12.3. I can see it in the plugins folder, but it does not appear on the list of Effects ins...

Ok, what is doing is trying to load the parameter from the previously used/saved effect. I saved the sole parameter for Clip FIx as a user preset (Parameters=thresh="21.000000000000"). Closed Audacity, reopened. Clip Fix held that, however when I open Adjustable fade, the error pops up wi...
