I downloaded audacity last night and it worked perfectly. I opened it this morning and it pops up saying "Audacity is already running" and it won't open. Does anyone know how to help? Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated

What exactly did you try? Have you tried repairing the disk and repairing permissions?Phil25 wrote:I've tried everything and it's still not working
Is it Yosemite or some other version of OS X? We can't see your computer, so we have to ask.
Did you make system changes since last night, if so, what were those changes?
As requested please post the information about your system temporary directory: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 10#p267610. The Terminal is at /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app.
