Hi
Using Audacity for couples days, without problem, but now I tried to 'play' some audio file (WAV) and when I press 'play' button, nothing happens.
Is this a bug, or is there an option that could cause that (unkown feature ) ?
I'm using Windowz 7
Thanks
PL

Does it say 1.3.13 Beta (Unicode) when you click Help > About Audacity? If you have some earlier version that 1.3.13, please download 1.3.13
here .
Is the green triangle moving above the waveform when you press Play? If yes, choose the correct playback device in Audacity's Devices Preferences. Check at "Sound" in the Windows Control Panel that the device isn't muted.
If the green triangle does not move, try rebooting. There may be a delay before Play responds if you have lots of tracks and you are out of computer resources.
