recording???

[peacenique]

I bought a new MAC a year ago.
I used a PC for twelve years and have had a rough time changing over. To be honest, I regret having purchased a MAC. Perhaps if there had been some instruction given at the dealer, or better yet; if a workshop or two had been offered, I would not be feeling this ambivalence towards it.

One of the things I cannot figure out is how to record. I'm thinking you have to do it through GarageBand, but for the life of me I cannot.

I have messages on my phone answering machine that I want to save and burn. (as goofy as that may sound)

Once again this morning I tried to figure it out. However, when I hit the support/help button on GarageBand, it gives me tutorials for 09, when mine is 08.

Can anybody help?

Thank you in advance,
Maija
