How do I restore a WAV version of my Multitrack session? Only isolated clips show up.

I am -- for the first time as a non-engineer -- recording, editing and mastering  an audiobook.  I have learned a lot and have pretty much mastered the process to bring in a wav file that conforms (exceeds, actually) the ACX/Audible requirements for RMS statistics.  BUT....

I am struggling with a chapter which seems to have come adrift from its source media.  I have a fully edited and clean Multitrack version, but I cannot seem to sync it with the corresponding WAV file. I have assumed that each multitrack session (I have only one track, actually, plus room tone), would have a synced and complete corresponding assembly of source clips that I could then use for statistical analysis and final output to WAV.  But this ornery chapter does not.  It only brings up isolated clips, which end at the point where it runs into a mistake and we did the punch-and-roll.

I tried doing a multi-track mixdown, and then exporting that as a WAV, but it won't let me;  the option is grayed out. 

How do I reconnect my media, so the multitrack and wav versions are in sync?  I have tried linking media,  and link all media, but after going through the whole chapter clip-by-clip, saving it, re-opening -- it is back to the old problem, only the WAV file for the immediate clip, not a complete version of the recordings.  Just now, when I went to click on "link all media," I got a window of my multitrack view with all clips shown as "offline,"  I know they are there, but why can't the program help me relink them and save that?

Obviously, I am missing something major here.

My system details are below.   Thanks in advance for any help!

When I try to "link all media," I get this daunting image:

I think that you can get this message if, for instance, you made a change to a file in Waveform view and didn't save it before attempting to effectively make a copy of the file in the session folder. At that point, Audition is likely to object considerably!


Just wanted to check back in with the eventual solution -- provided by the Adobe Chat agent -- which was a pleasant surprise.  Usually they direct me to a beginner's tutorial and hang up.

The answer, for me, was once I got a good Multitrack, I select "bounce to new track."  This created a complete SINGLE file, with all the clips combined.  Then I exported that file to WAV, and presto.  Salvation .

Hope others with this problem stumble upon this solution, which is nowhere to be found in all the manuals and tutorials.

This only happens when the files you used when you created the session aren't in the same place that they were at the time. If you moved them, or the place they were stored isn't online, then this is exactly what happens; you have to relink each blank clip with its source. When you saved the session, did you get a message telling you that files were located outside the session folder, and would you like to place copies of them in it?

I tried one more time.  This time it was easier -- I got the complete Multitrack up, after clicking on "link all media" in the Clip menu.  It seemed to find all the files immediately after I located the first clip it asked for.  Okay so far.  But again, when I switched to the WAV view, only the first clip is there.  So I tried "Save all" and for the first time got this error message:

I can Identify.  I am in an alert state, and may not be able to be saved.  Going to bed.
