I cant listen to my recording

The program says I am recording but when I press play and try to listen to it, none of the sound comes out. It is not my Bose headphones that are not working because I can listen to music on Spotify with them. I am trying to record with an AudioBox 22VSL and a sterling audio mic. I am also using this all on my mac. I got these for a Christmas present years ago and am now trying to record so I do not know a whole lot about them. I have tried looking up tutorials and other q&a but have not found any that help me out. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
