Norma,
Have you tried cleaning the tape path in the tape machine?
That would be the tape guides, the tape heads, the capstan
and the pinch roller.
Is the squeal mechanical or does it come through the speakers
or headphones along with the recorded material that is on the
tape?

Try another cassette in the machine and see what happens.
If it still makes a squeeking noise, chances are that it is probably the
machine. .

me what is a safe solution to clean with? And the squeal does come
through the speaker and headphones. Other tapes play just fine. I
should probab

The last thing that you want to do is to expose your cassette tapes to
water. In most cases it is moisture that is causing the problem. Read below.
Tape Baking
When magnetic recording tapes are being stored, moisture is slowly absorbed
by the binder that holds the components of the tape together
