I had two projects I was working on in tandem, and noticed my mac was starting to have slow responses when I did commands, like delete a section for example…so I saved to be safe, and closed out Audacity. I then restarted the mac to make sure everything was fine on that end…
and now I’m in a pickle. Both files are unopenable. By that, I mean they spinning rainbow starts every time I try to open either, and I have to force quit Audacity. If I just open Audacity solo, it gives me the “recover files” option, and no matter what I pick other than Skip, the system gets hosed up again.
I can select skip, then open another file but every time I quit and start back up, it gives me that “recover” window…and the process starts again. I really want to be able to save these files, or barring that, at least get Audacity to work without the Recovery prompt every time I open it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
System info:
Mac OS Big Sur v. 11.4
Audacity v. 3.0.2.0 (but files were created using 3.0.0.0)
