I don’t think this has been covered by other topics, apologies if it has.
I’m using Audacity 3.7.3 on a Macbook Pro running Sequoia 15.3.2.
I don’t know exactly when this started happening, but I if I try to do File → Export Audio, no file selector dialog appears, but input is disabled. I.E. if I try to click somewhere else, I can’t, and I hear the Mac “can’t do this” sound until I press escape to “close” the invisible dialog.
It’s obviously very annoying, and I’ve resorted to using the Share Audio feature which uploads to Audio.com, and then downloading from there.
I’m new to how Audacity feedback works, should I submit a bug report somewhere? If anybody sees this and has any ideas of what this might be down to (if it isn’t just a bug), then let me know!
@andrewmccafferty, this is unusual. Could you post a screencap here?
Also, is “Preferences\Cloud\Show How would you like to export” checkbox set?
In Audacity 3.6.4 / macOS Sequoia, the first dialog i get is “How would you like to export”, giving me two options: “Share to Audio com” and “Export to Computer”. You can disable this dialog by checking “don’t show again” at the bottom left, or in Audacity’s “precerences” in the “Cloud” section (at the very bottom in the left column).
When I click “Export to Computer”, i see a standard dialog where I can select / adjust various options.
For exporting all tracks of a digitized tape or LP, I recommend you use labels and the “export multiple files” option. Please ask again if you need instructions / help on this matter.
