I recently downloaded 2.0.4 and it's fine. But, now when I boot up, on my Dock in stead of seeing the Audacity icon I see a question mark.
When I click on the question mark an Audacity folder pops up on my desk top. Then a window opens and asks me if I want to open it, cancel it, or go to the website.
Never had this with other versions. Just had the icon on the Dock when I booted up.
Is there a way that I can have the same thing, just the Audacity icon on my Dock when I boot up?
Thanks.

Re: ? Showing for Audacity
Are you trying to run Audacity from the .dmg file?
Go > Applications > Audacity
Does your listing look like the illustration?
You may be missing FFMpeg and Lame, those are two add-ons, and your files may not say ".app." I told the Finder to show me everything.
If so, drag your dock icon to the trash and pull a fresh one from "Audacity" (or Audacity.app in my case).
