Thank you both forever for these Audacity tips! It worked, and I have the
audio for my husband's favorite movie, Dune.

Hi Judy
I can tell you the procedure for Windows, if this is the OS of your laptop:
1. Shift+H
Choose the host --> Wasapi
2. Shift+I
Choose Recording Device -> "Speaker" + >your audio device name> +
"(Loop back)"
3. Record
4. On error, check the sample rate settings, both in Audacity and the
control panel (enter e.g. "Sound" in the start menu search box)
I hope that helps.
Cheers
Robert

Hello, Folks,
I am a novice with Audacity, but really like it. I have used it
mostly for transposing keys of songs when needed, but I would like to
start recording from my laptop. I tried to record by hitting the
record button in the menu, but the computer mic was being used rather
than recording the audio from the computer. Can you please tell me
how to set up so I am recording from the software and not the
computer's mic?
Thanks.
Judy
