Hello Larry and list: Afraid I'm a step ahead of you on this one, Larry;
have already done that "search" thing as I had that same thought; I came up
empty, except for the copy that WD Smartware had backed up of the part of
the file I ended up saving; the one I wanted to "cut away" from the main
file!

Just making sure. When you save as, when you tab backwards to see where
the file is being saved, it is being saved on the desktop? Just for the
hell of it, do a search on your hard drive for your file with Windows
find, just in case there is a duplicate. If there is, that may be the one
you have been working on.
I really wish you luck with this one. As I suggested, you might send an
enquiry to the guys at High Criteria and maybe that can suggest something
we haven't thought of. TR sure has been a great and reliable utility for
me for a lot of years, and I hope it will be for you in the very near
future.
Good luck,
Larry

Also try creating a new file from some other recording source, just to
see where it might go when saving. You might save using the file menu in
order to see just where files are being saved too. Have you tried saving
your work through the menus, rather than just pressing ctrl-s. Try doing
that, and tab backward from the file name just to get an idea where TR is
likely to save a file.

Are you absolutely sure that the work is being saved to the file on the
desktop?
Maybe you should copy the file to another folder, then bring the new
copy up from within that new folder with TR, and do it all over again.
Just forget the copy in the desktop. I know, it really shouldn't make a
difference, but I believe it is possible that TR might be saving your
resulting file to a folder of its own choosing, although I can't say
why exactly. I'm just trying to make sure that you are sure that TR is
using the desktop as a default, because it doesn't usually. If I
remember correctly, I think it saves folders under my documents\my
music, but not sure anymore. I have my files presently saved to a
folder of my own creation called "TR Downloads." That is where I save
my audio streamed recordings at present.
I know that this is a matter of personal preference, but I really don't
like to do such tasks from the desktop anyway, just for housekeeping
purposes, but I have my organizational eccentricities just like
everybody else does <g>.

Again Tom, I hope you aren't mistakenly playing a previous copy of
the original file using Winamp, giving you the misimpression that TR
isn't doing its work. Or maybe I'm actually hoping that is exactly
what you are doing, because if you are... You might feel a bit
foolish for a while after realizing that you've been making such a
mistake, but there's nothing like making a bit of a fool of yourself
to learn such a lesson <g>. Believe me, no one here will be laughing
at you if this is the case, certainly not me.

OK Tom, one more point of clarification. If you delete the
selection, save the file, then close TR, then return to TR and
reopen the previously saved file with the selected material gone,
is it really gone? I mean when replaying it in TR, not with Winamp.
Is there no chance that you aren't mistakenly replaying a copy of
the file in another location when using Winamp from another folder
on your hard drive.
Sorry, I know some of these questions have to be rather irritating,
but until we get this thing figured out, no stone should go
unturned <g>.

when I do the steps necessary to accomplish this, if if I play the

when I play the original file, the part I tried to cut out is

Tom an easier way to edit files is with a program called mp3
direct cut.
That one will allow you to mark the beginning and the end of the
portion
you want to cut out. That program is freeware.

Hi Thom
I don't know what controll s is used for.
What I said is
Shift l marks the left boundary and shift r marks the right
boundary
or
the stream.
Once this region is marked there is a special file save that
you get
to
using the alt key.
arow down in through the files menue and you will se special
file save
and after you have named the file keep tabing until you se
different
options for mp3 atc atc.
If you still have gtrouble call me at

Hi Thom
If the file is properly marked with the
shift l for left and shift r for the rithe boundary, then
when you
save the file,
thereis an option called special save that lets yhyou save
that
marked
section.
Don't forget to use the undo after you use this.

Hi list: If you've been following this thread, you know
that I've
been trying to trim off the unwanted parts of a file!
Thanks to
lister Richard Godfrey, we were able to do it; well, sort
of! I
can
get Total Recorder to do what I want to do; now my problem
is:
Total
Recorder _will not_ save my changes! Richard tells me
that, upon
pressing "control-S" you don't get that "save as" dialog
(which I
didn't! But when I then play my original file, all of the
file is
___still_ _there_!" I really don't want to re-install TR;
afraid I
might not get things set back as they are now! Can anybody
advise
on
what may be causing TR to not save my edit?
Tom Kaufman, feeling frustrated and a little hungry; gonna
go have
lunch now!
