Re: Will not record
Mac computers have no built in ability to record sounds that are playing on the computer.

Re: Will not record
I was having this problem as well. Steve's reference solved the issue for me. I thought this was strange since I had been recording using Audacity without a problem. I did notice something though. If you look in Audacity Preferences under devices you will see a more current build for the core audio interface. I don't know if this affected Audacity performance. I am back to normal and a happy camper.
