not sure what you mean. Can you explain what your results are ?
Is it just not working at all ? your dragging an audio track to the timeline to let Melodyne read its tempo correct ?

I do it on a laptop all the time. Make sure Melodyne is installed. If the results are inconsistent, try setting it to Percussion mode...it seems better at coping with extreme changes.

Im going to approach this like I don't know if you've used this before.
As Craig mentioned, make sure Melodyne is indeed installed.
 
1- Drag your audio clip right on the timeline.
2- When the timeline turns a blue color, then release your mouse button/to drop the file on the TL.
3- You should see sonar/Melodyne computing, calculating your BPM.

I went through this.
 
Melodyne support couldn't solve it. The guideline they gave was to make sure that the version of Melodyne I installed was the latest from my account at the Melodyne site, and not the version that I could download from the Command Center. Also, a full reinstall of Melodyne and Sonar. Unfortunately, none of this worked. I had to follow the instructions on the Cakewalk site and do a full wipe/reinstall of Sonar. Then, everything worked fine.

I just want to throw this out there. All of the instructions I've seen about dragging clip to the timeline says it turn blue. Mine does not turn blue, but turns the dark orange color in the theme.

When I see threads like this I try the function out to see what happens, and try to get it to mess up. I haven't been able to, and I'm using it on my office computer with the most recent SONAR updates and Melodyne Essential.
 
Try this: insert any WAV file, then insert Melodyne under Region FX. Under Algorithm, change the default to Percussive. Now that you've set the default, you can remove the WAV file.
 
Also note that you can't drag anything other than a standard WAV file to the timeline - no groove clips, REX, etc.

This is real important. I thought that any audio file would work. But not true!
 
Got to be standard .wav file

Anything you can't process with Melodyne will make it unhappy.

Well two points... lol 
one, I have a crappy laptop upstairs, and B, I only get one copy of Melodyne and it not on my laptop. :) So thinks for the info, it's good to know that you need to use Melodyne with a Splat feature. :P that must explain my other issue as well. Dragging a and audio file to a midi track? who know I was using Melodyne when I have never used it in the past. Ha! 
 
Thank you!

Yes - both of those issues are caused by not having Melodyne installed on your laptop

I would suggest changing the thread title to "SOLVED"
