Help for Audacity on macOS.
Forum rules
This forum is for Audacity on macOS 10.4 and later.
Please state which version of macOS you are using,
and the exact three-section version number of Audacity from "Audacity menu > About Audacity".
Audacity 1.2.x and 1.3.x are obsolete and no longer supported. If you still have those versions, please upgrade at
https://www.audacityteam.org/download/.
The old forums for those versions are now closed, but you can still read the archives of the
1.2.x and
1.3.x forums.

Even when I uninstall the app, I get the click. Something is incompatible with the latest Mac OSX and 2.0.5 (and 2.0.4) but is fine with 2.0.3.
Did you upgrade to 10.9.3?
It's possible that reinstalling 10.9.3 might have cured it. Installing Mavericks over previous OS X does cause audio issues for some people, not just in Audacity.
Thanks for the comments.

Yes, I accepted the 10.9.3 upgrade that came it early this week from the app store and Audacity didn't work since that point until I downgraded it to 2.0.3.

All I am saying is - if you had installed 10.9.3 over 10.8 or earlier and have audio issues in other applications than Audacity, installing 10.9.3 again may cure them.
Simply reboot then as soon as you see the grey screen, press COMMAND + R to enter the OS X Recovery Utility then follow the steps.
Doing that probably won't help the Audacity issue, though one person has said that it did.
