Yes, I tried to do that before.
And just did it again now.
It exported/saved it as an mp3.
But I don't know where it is.
When I click "add file" I can't find the mp3 file.
I don't see it on the desktop or the icloud or in Audacity or anywhere else.

Help again! I have recorded the 1-minute test. Now I'm trying to upload it using the "uploader" page. I selected "tests--tests" as the MC. I have saved the 1-minute test file and it appears on the desktop as "test_maxgal.aup" I know it's there; I can find and open it th...

I think I've got it now...

O!
I thought this list of setup steps was for "setup only" -- i.e., setting the specs in anticipation of exporting later.
So I'll circle back to it warily in the near future.
Thanks to everyone who responded so quickly.

Ah. So I started this time with "Audacity" and... I got through the "preferences" items (1-4). Now I've got to "file" and then "export" -- but none of the items under "export" (of which MP3 is the first item) can be selected; they are all light grey....

Ah, not to worry... I'm sure I'll have more Qs to dump on your doorstep.

O, thank you in advance...I'm sure I'll have more Qs...L.

Ah. It took several (actually, many) starts & stops & rewinds, but it worked. THANKS! I never would have been able to do it otherwise. Now I have to go get a microphone. (I'm pretty sure I could test the thing using a microphone that lurks somewhere in my Mac, but I don't want to accidentall...

O wow, you're not far from me! (Sebastopol) And you're a tech wizard compared to me! I am brand new and floundering around. Maybe you can take a look at my "help" Q that I just posted, about installing Audacity onto my Mac? I might have to retain you by the hour. ...Louise (username "...

Hi everyone, I'm brand new to LibriVox and I already have a problem! I think it stems from the fact that I am always anticipating that my Mac will explode in my face. I will be getting a microphone soon (Yeti), which is fine. Here is my problem, which may have a simple answer just out of my line of ...

Hi everyone, I am new to LibriVox and a kick-&-screaming Luddite. So needless to say, but I'll say it anyway: I already have a problem getting set up. 👹 But I think I'm not supposed to rant about it on this "introduce yourself" page, so I'll segue over to the "help" forum. Me...
