(b) If I do receive a usuable version of 2004 from Coda, how do I transfer my old Finale files to the new I Mac? My old computer only backs up via a Zip Drive, and the I Mac only accepts CD roms. There may be an easy answer to this, but I'm way to stupid to know it. Any help would be gratefully accepted.
You're right, if anyone can help you, it's probably someone here. I find myself in the same kind of predicament, unfortunately. Our university upgrades our computers on a 4-year cycle, which isn't quite short enough. I have a lot of files on a 1998 G3, and I'm trying to keep it alive and working because it can't communicate with my 2002 PowerBook Titanium G4. The problem is partly operating systems--OS 8.1 vs. OS X/Classic. But even more frustrating is the impossibility of connecting them directly. The G3 has only serial (or parallel--whatever) ports, while the G4 has only USB ports. The G3 can save to floppy, but the G4 has no floppy drive. The G3 can read CDs, but not burn them. Etc. Lots of luck, and I'll be watching for suggestions that might help me as well.
