So my friends and I recently recorded the first few hours of a podcast we’re trying to start, and we used my laptop to record. Before I edited the projects, however, my computer’s graphics card burned up and I had to go get it replaced; they told me they would have to wipe the hard drive, but I decided that I had essentially no important files and just selected the ones I needed and put them on dropbox. Being new to audacity, I think I missed the _data files for the projects, and they got wiped with the hard drive. Now I’m only left with the .aup files, and I would love to be able to get my recordings back. Is there anything I can do?
Mac OS High Sierra Version 10.13.4
Audacity Version 2.2.2
When I try to open the files, I get the “can’t find project data folder” and “can’t open file” errors.
Thanks so much for your help!
