Exporting MP3′s Using Audacity

Posted on October 19th, 2009 by Dave Taylor

I’ve been recording my daughter’s singing with Audacity, a great open source audio recording and editing app, and it’s fun and makes it pretty easy to chop and organize audio tracks. Problem is, I want to save the output as an MP3, not as a WMA file. but when I try to export the audio file in that format, it just pops up an error. How can I fix it?

Building A Windows Connection To A Mac File Server

My computer network has an old Mac Mini running Mac OS X Tiger (10.4), acting as a file and network printer server, along with a number of desktop computers running the newer version of Mac OS X, Snow Leopard. For those computers, everything’s fine, but when a colleague hooked up his Vista laptop, he couldn’t see the file server at all. How do I enable that?
