Next time you restart Audacity, it should realize it’s gone and rebuild it. Go > Go To Folder > ~/Library/Application Support > drag the audacity (lower case intentional) folder to the trash. This is less useful if one of your configurations or settings is broken.
When you reinstalled Audacity, did you go into the system and delete the config file? Audacity keeps that around even during reinstalls so you don’t have to put all your configurations and settings in again. Should we be worried that you are restarting the machine all the time? Most Mac users have to be poked repeatedly with a stick to stop what they’re doing long enough to restart, sometimes over many months. I am at this point mostly interested in being able to keep Audacity in the dock and not having it become a question mark after every reboot.Īudacity will only stay in the dock only until I reboot the machine, I already know that using slashes in file names is not an advised practice but I have hundreds of projects that I have saved this way and would like to avoid renaming everything.
I have tried adding and removing Audacity.app to the dock many times, and I am making sure that the dock icon is pointing to the right place and I still get a question mark after reboot.Īny advice would be greatly appreciated. The one singular problem that I have now is that Audacity will only stay in the dock only until I reboot the machine, at which point the Audacity icon becomes a question mark and nothing happens when I click on it. I can load my projects by double-clicking, I can have more than one project open at the same time in separate windows, I can export and all, even with my slash-containing file names and all that. All of the above problems seem to be gone, and everything seems to be running fine. I tried uninstalling Audacity completely again, and this time went back to 2.1.1. I ended up with all of the same problems. I next uninstalled Audacity completely and tried the 2.2.0 RC Version. The same applied to exporting projects as well. With Audacity already open, I was able to open my projects by using the “File, Open” method, but could not save again using the same file name, because of the slashes I assume. I couldn’t open any project by double clicking on it or I would just get a blank project. I initially installed Audacity 2.1.3 and ended up with all kinds of problems opening, saving, and exporting my projects due to my previous file naming format. I recently replaced my MBP to a mid-2016 model with OSX 10.13 High Sierra. I have never had any problems saving or exporting projects or using slashes in project filenames. I have always saved my projects as: “Name - YYYY/MM/DD Venue Name”. Version 2.1.0 is currently on that machine. For years I have used a Mid-2009 MPB that currently has OSX El Capitan 10.11.6 on it to make recordings using Audacity.
