PLEASE HELP ME, really need help

Post by Music87 » Sun Jan 11, 2009 10:02 pm

Hi people

I hope someone can help me with a problem i am facing, please-

My problem is : I was working on a project where i imported different songs,and i cut them up to last only 30 secs for each imported song. This was a dj mix preview for a mixtape. Then i saved my project by pressing : save project as. 2 secs later the program frooze up. I then ended the whole program, i shut it down. Then i went to look for my project to see if i managed to save it, yes is was saved, but saved in a strange way i did not understand.

I pressed on the saved file and it open. I thought it would open as the full project in audacity, but it didnt. When i press on my saved file in order to open the whole project up, i see that my whole project has been divided into over 1000 files in AU-format. ANd i dont get the whole project back up, it has split up my project into 1000 + files in AU-format. How can i get the whole project back up in one piece, and not split up piece for piece???

Please help me, i have worked hard on this, and dont want to miss this... PLEASE help me anyone

However, it's probably going to happen again. Audacity 1.2 was really bad about opening music files that it didn't know how to manage. It sounds like that's what happened to you. The export got to that song and went straight into the dirt.

Where did the music come from?

Windows? When was the last time you defragmented your hard drive? How much hard drive room do you have? A tight hard drive will drive Audacity crazy.

And please don't double post - it only wastes peoples time and annoys them.

And Iv'e already posted the same answer to your query in the inappropriate section of the forum where you double posted.
