   The media upload function won't let me upload audio files larger than 2MB. That's not good. Where do I change that limit?

   That limit is the php directive upload_max_filesize you can either edit your php.ini file or try putting this in your .htaccess file. Some hosts don't allow php_value in htaccess files, if not you might can ask your host to increase the limit.

   php_value upload_max_filesize 16M
   php_value post_max_size 16M

   Starting from my present htaccess file, would it be like so?

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /wp/
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>

   php_value upload_max_filesize 16M
   php_value post_max_size 16M

   # END WordPress

   Yes that looks right, if your hosts allows it, it should work now.

   I don't have access to my .htaccess file, but I am able to edit my php.ini file.

   However, I don't see any limiting code in the php.ini file? I added the above code to the file, but it is still restricting my audio file upload.

   register_globals = off
   allow_url_fopen = off
   
   expose_php = Off
   max_input_time = 60
   variables_order = "EGPCS"
   extension_dir = ./
   upload_tmp_dir = /tmp
   precision = 12
   SMTP = relay-hosting.secureserver.net
   url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset="

   php_value upload_max_filesize 16M
   php_value post_max_size 16M
