No tabs in Preferences

Post by Soundswan » Mon Apr 05, 2010 7:44 pm

Hello all, it's my first time here. I trawled through some of the Audacity help pages, posts on here and even added some info to my registry, but to no avail. I have downloaded 1.3.12. I have Windows XP. There is no 'tab' format under Preferences, just a list menu on the left, and no 'Audio' tab. As I am not hearing any audio from my sound device to laptop I am guessing this may be the missing link... please help!

Thank you.

In version 1.3, the "Devices" option in the preferences menu selects the recording and playback devices.

This page from the manual shows the layout of the Preference menu.

Thank you for your reply, Irish. I must have been looking at a screencap from an earlier version. :)
