I’m trying to edit some tracks and burn them onto CD. Some have exported just fine as MP3 or WAV, but some are turn into a generic “File”. I click on properties and says File Type: File. Help?
I followed the tips about putting the project rate at 44100 hz, adding stereo track, and I export as WAV and it ends up as ‘File’.
Avoid using the “dot” (period / full stop) character in file names. Generally it’s best to stick to numbers, letters, space, hyphen and underscore in file names.
Or if you must have the dot in the file name, add another dot and the file extension at the end. See http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_opening_and_saving_files.html#extensions .

As ShineSpark1 has marked his post as “solved” I guess we must have hit it.
