Re: "Missing audio datablock files" when opening save file

Are you using Audacity 2.2.0 or 2.2.1 ?

And if so are you using "Save As" instead of "Save" yto save your existing open project ?

Re: How to move mouse pointer position with keyboard shortcu

Ah - thos commands move the view not the mouse cursor.

With a selection present the mouse cursor position is always the start of the selection.

Re: Help Minimizing Stretched Tape WaWa

Thank you for your replies. My brother has been doing a lot of "cassette ripping" recently. I'll dig out the cassette and take it over to him. We can do some of the suggested re-tensioning, etc before attempting to re-record. When you do retension, if the deck does not have automatic brak...

Re: Help Minimizing Stretched Tape WaWa

Hi Jim, I do note that you can still get vinyl copies in the US at a reasonable price-point - so if you know someone with the wherewithal to run a vinyl conversion for you (I'm in the UK - too far away for you realistically) I used Audacity (and Brian Davies' ClickRepair) to digitize my (and my wife...

Re: audio blockfiles missing, please help!

I suspect that you have been using " Save As " to save back to the current open project (rather than just using " Save "). A nasty bug crept in in version 2.2.0 and remained in in 2.2.1 until a user posted on the Forum in late December with this problem. We have now foxed this fo...
