Combining mp3s in Vista isn't working properly

Post by slughappy1 » Sun Dec 07, 2008 10:30 pm

Ok so I didn't know what exactly to put in the subject line, but I am having a problem. I using Audacity in Linux most of the time, but for right now I can't. So I am trying to use it in Vista. But when I try and combine mp3s in Vista, there seems to be something missing. When I combine tracks in Linux when the beginning of one track meets the end of another track. It gets a yellow line that shows that they are perfectly aligned, and it also snaps them together to make sure you are exactly aligned. But in Vista the line doesn't show up.

My question is, how can I get that line helper to show up?

You need to use Audacity 1.3.x
The recommended 1.3.x version for Vista is currently 1.3.6

Well that worked. I didn't realize that in Linux I was using a newer version. Thanks
