missing menus?

[rstringer]

I've been using 1.2.6, decided to upgrade to 1.3.5 - noise reduction much better, now. However, I can't persuade this thing to give me access to label tracks. I have the strange feeling that I am missing the menu from which I access it - is there supposed to be a "Tracks" menu?
Second little problem - I don't have access to most of the effects in the plugins folder - what's up with that?
Am I just looking in the wrong places? I'm using an intel MacBook, OSX 10.5.3.
Thanks.

If you're on an Intel machine, you should have been using Audacity 1.2.5 not 1.2.6.

So it would be really good to go back and make sure you got the right 1.3.

Well, I'm using (trying to use) 1.3.5d, distributed in universal binary, which I assume is the correct version. Do I assume correctly? I've also tried 1.3.3, which has the same problems. Suggestions?

Just to give al ittle more info - on 1.2.x I see the following menus: File, Edit, View, Project, Generate, Effect, Analyze, Help. The Project menu allows me to add a "New Label Track." Under Effect I see about 30 choices.
With 1.3.5d I have the following menus: File, Edit, View, Effect, Window, Help.
I can find nowhere that allows me to add a label track, and under Effects I have only six choices.
For interest, I downloaded 1.3.6a4, which added one menu, Transport.
So, is there something missing? I believe, from reading the postings here, there should be more menus, at least one. Thoughts?

Yes 1.3.5d is for PPC and Intel architectures. 1.3.5 d by default should have all the menus shown here:

I think you may have turned CleanSpeech on by mistake which is a reduced GUI. You can turn it off on the Interface tab of Preferences (under Modes). Preferences should be under the Audacity menu, isn't it there? Or use CTRL + , to get to Preferences.
