Capital Z in labels.

[mansunthemonkey]

Help. When typing in track names to my labels why won't Audacity let me use a lower case z? It will let me use capital Z no problem. It is becoming frustrating having to label songs like this: CraZy For You, and then having to go into the file afterwards and change the file name and id3 tag info...

Apologies if this has been posted as a topic before, I did search but couldn't find anything.

You didn't look in the right place. The minute you experience instabilities like this, you should stop using Audacity 1.2.

Audacity 1.2 is very old and no longer supported,
patched, corrected, or updated. Audacity 1.2 can
be unstable on newer computers.

Download and install the latest Audacity 1.3 from here...

http://audacityteam.org/download/

You can install both audacity 1.2 and Audacity 1.3 on
the same computer, but only use one at a time.

Audacity 1.2 will not open projects made on Audacity 1.3.

If you use MP3 or some of the more modern audio
compression formats, get Lame and FFMpeg software
from the same web site. Do not use older software
or software from other web sites, even though they
may have the same names.

Yes it's a known issue with Audacity 1.2.6.
The best solution is to upgrade to the latest 1.3.x version (currently 1.3.12, but 1.3.13 is due out next week).
