Hi, there. I have a similar problem to a guy in the windows section of this forum; some user was kind enough to individually help him with his files, but I didn’t find a general solution, so I hope you don’t mind me posting my issue here.
My problem: After working many hours on an audacity project, incl. closing and opening it, suddenly I cannot open the project anymore. When I try to open the file, an error message is displayed (see below). First I thought this is a unigue problem, so I completely started the project from scratch, and now, many many hours later, the problem has occurred again, preventing my from accessing even the new file, which honestly brings me close to despair.
Have you seen this problem before and understand its origin? Is there a general fix for it? And specifically for my current project file, is there anyone able and kind enough to be able to restore it for me so it is accessable?
I’m using mac version 11.5.2 (Big Sur) and Audacity 3.1.2.
Here are the problem details:
(!) Audacity could not read a file in /Users/Erik/…

}

}
}
I would appreciate any help SO much!
Thanks a lot,
Erik.
