Error opening project?!

Post by ninjistic » Sat Mar 05, 2011 4:56 pm

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum and I come bearing a huge problem!

I was working on a project in Audacity yesterday, and everything went find. I saved as always and exited the program. I tried open up the project today and was hit with:

"Couldn't find the project data folder for: 'TITLE_data'"

Now I understand that if the data folder is moved, deleted or altered, that it will screw up the entire project, but here's the thing... NOTHING HAPPENED TO IT! It is still saved in the SAME folder it has been the whole time, right next to the AUP file! This is the second time this has happened to me while working with Audacity but I thought the first time was a freak accident or something-- apparently not! I am worried this is going to start happening every time I work with the program and if that's the case, I want to find a different software ASAP!

Can someone help me? Is there any way to fix this? I was 90% done with the project and I'd hate to start from scratch.

Nevermind guys I got it.

The file folder was named differently and was missing a small detail (an underscore in this case). When I added it, it worked fine.
