No sound wave

OSX 10.6.8 Audacity 2.0.0

That version of Audacity is obsolete. Please quit it and trash it then get the latest “Audacity 2.0.5 (.dmg file)” from: Audacity ® | Download for Mac OS . Follow Installation: Do NOT run Audacity from the DMG!!!! to the letter then you will install 2.0.5 correctly.

For the past several days I have been attempting to install Audacity and transfer some old cassette tapes. I have sent and received several emails hoping to resolve the problem of no sound being sent from cassette2USB to computer.

Audacity does not provide support by e-mail. If you sent the e-mails to the device manufacturer it is highly unlikely they will reply (Audacity does not make the device).

@Loyst

When I go to Audacity>Preference>Devices there is not any USB choices to select, only Built in Microphone and Built in Input.

Launch 2.0.5 with the USB device connected and recognised by the Mac.

Try these steps here if you need help: Missing features - Audacity Support .

@Loyst

When I start Audacity, I get astart screen that is different that the screen on the SetUp manual.

Audacity does not provide the manual for your device, that will be written by the device manufacturer.

Use the latest 2.0.5, then use the Manual at Help > Manual (in web browser). The Help menu is top right of the Audacity screen. You can also read the Manual online. Here is a page that should help you: Audacity Manual .
