Audacity 1.2.6 on a Mac OSX.6 with intel chip shows an effects menu with editing options, but the entire list is grayed out. How do I access the "effects?"

You must be stopped and not paused, and you must select some music before the effects become active.

The last thing you must do is stop using Audacity 1.2 Audacity 1.2 is not supported on modern Macs and can be unstable if it runs at all. Get Audacity 1.3.12 from here...

You can install both versions, but only use one at a time. Audacity 1.3 Projects will not open in 1.2. Get all your additional software like 'lame' from the same place. Do not use your older software.
