Audacity 1.2.x is now obsolete. Please use the current Audacity 2.1.x version.

Mac 0S X 10.3 and earlier are no longer supported but you can download legacy versions of Audacity for those systems HERE.

Hello Koz
I am afraid that your suggestion did not solve the problem or I did something wrong.
Kind regards
Erik

Effects (and many other menu items) are only available when you are in "Stop" mode. "Pause" is not the same as "Stop". You cannot apply effects (they are greyed out) while Audacity is playing, recording or paused.
