large file won't import aud2.06 XP

Post by davethewave » Sun Dec 28, 2014 7:12 pm

I have a folder that contains 2 gb of an audacity recording that won't Import.It's uncompressed and I tried importing via
raw data.It's not in the recent files list,and Aud doesn't recognise it .The project name I created is MMBP2,hence the folder
reads MMBP2_data.When I go to properties it says Type: File Folder. which consists of about 20 folders numbered d00 d0a
d0b d0c ...d0f then d01 d02 d03 ... Once I'm able to access this recording will make it a sucsessful first attempt in
audacity and 96000khz.I've alreeady heard A small part and it sounded real good. Hope someone can help me out.

To open an Audacity Project, use the "File menu > Open" command and select the Audacity Project file (has the file extension ".aup".
See here for information about "Audacity projects". http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/au ... jects.html

Please note also that Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft and is therefore a dangerously insecure operating system.
