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?
