Hi Chris,

I downloaded a sample from here http://soundbible.com/1778-Cow-Moo.html and 
was able to drag it into TW (chrome, mac-os) with no problem.

If keyboards are more your thing, you can also get it in there using the 
import button in the tools menu of the sidebar.

The unsaved-wiki warning suggests that you are dropping the file onto the 
wrong part of the page and the browser is trying to navigate to it - you 
should see a green bar at the top of the page which is the 'dropzone' for 
importing files by drag, aim for that.

It doesn't appear that .m4a files are supported and I managed to crash 
chrome by dragging one in, big files will slow TW down too much - the 
documentation for audio files does seem to be in need of improvement.

Hope that helps a bit. What is your project?

Regards,
Richard
