I am not computer savy. The quick tip help text have not empowered me to make my first recording. Please, is there a resource where someone can walk me through a first recording over the telephone? Henry in California

Sorry Henry - there is no telephone support. This is not a commercial organizatin but rather is an Open Source project "staffed" by volunteers in their spare time.
This tutorial should hopefully help you though:

The manualdoes not help. Iget the red VU meter readings but no wave form, and just silence on playback. I have checked all volume leve s and uniform inout modes. What can I try next?

If you're getting the red meter, then you you are recording something, but perhaps it is just very quiet.
Try applying the Amplify effect (with default settings) to what you have recorded. Anything now?
If it has recorded at a very low level then the sound quality after you have amplified will probably be very poor quality, but it will prove if the recording is working.
What are you trying to record and what equipment are you using?
