I'm thinking your file isn't an MP3. Please upload it to http://ge.tt and post the resulting link here.

Hmm, check that again. The last slash makes the link not work, and if I just remove the slash, it says that it's not found.

Aha! It's an .aup (Audacity project) file, not an MP3.
After recording, you must export it as an MP3.
In Audacity, after recording and doing whatever edits to the file, go to File/Export, then Export as MP3.
Under Format Options, make sure Bit Rate Mode is "Constant" and choose "Quality" of 128kbps.

When exporting, you will probably see a box that allows one to edit metadata. Just ignore this. Don't add data and just hit 'okay.'TriciaG wrote: ↑June 18th, 2019, 9:32 am Aha! It's an .aup (Audacity project) file, not an MP3.

It shows under where you put in the file name when you export.

Nope, still won't work. I've done everything, and it still keeps coming up "aup" instead of Mp3. I'm doing something wrong at this stage, clearly, but I've no idea what it is. The videos don't seem to help, because they simply omit the filling out of the dropdown screen when you go to export as an MP3. There are several things to fill out, and I'm choosing the wrong answers, clearly

EDIT: OMG you are right. It 's not in there darn it. This video "How to Set your LibriVox tech specs" does show it at about 1:50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8JkCgKo3fU&t=72s and I will fix the other ones.

Just an idea here, could you check where you are sending the mp3 file? It may be trying to send it to a strange folder. If you could select Desktop (if you haven't already), maybe you can see it. I'm suspecting that you are exporting it correctly but can't find it.7A2c3Ml wrote: ↑June 18th, 2019, 11:30 am Nope, still won't work.

I decided I'll spell out EVERRYTHING, and maybe that way someone will spot where I go wrong. Incidentally, the files are not longer even showing up when the MP3 window opens, so something is going wrong even earlier in the process. But I'll start from when I hit export to MP3.
The window opens. I first see "Save as:Audacity" Is that what it should say?
This is followed by "names", which I presume means the names of files.. It showed me one file, "Test_7a2cml_data", from yesterday! and then a second "Test_mleder_data" from earlier today. {Like I said, I've tried 3 times since then, and none even show up!]
Under that it asks for a file name, which I assume would be "test_mleder" again, no? Under that, "Save as type", which correctly says "MP3 Files"
Is any of this helpful? I fear not since, as I said, the more recent files are not even showing up at all. Let me ask another question. AFTER I think I've done the exporting, and x out that screen, now I'm back to the Audacity dashboard. A new screen appears, asking if I want to save the project? Is that a yes or a no?
