"Error Opening Sound Device"

Audacity 2.2.2
MacOs High Sierra 10.13.4

Hello, every time I hit record message in the subject line comes up, as well as “change audio host, recording device, and the recording sample rate.” I think I recall that there is only partial support for MacOS Sierra. If this is so and there is no fix, guess I will be returning this Cassette to MP3 gadget, unless you know of another fix or app to complete this action.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Alton Dex.

See this page in the Audacity Manual about the error: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/error_opening_sound_device.html

But there is full support for macOS Sierra/High Sierra - a couple of Audacity releases ago Audacity was listed as partial support for Sierra - but it always ran fine on my macbook pro with Sierra and High Sierra.

These days i#I am running Audacity 2.2.2 and 2.3.0 alpha test on High Sierra 10.13.3 and 10.13.4 and it runs just fine.
