I got a response back from MacSupport (below). Apparenty it's the file in which Finale saves your demographic data in order to pass it on to the next version. Remembe when you installed 2005 and your address, serial number, etc. was already filled out? Well, if you delete (or move elsewhere) the demdata.txt file from the OS-level \Library\Application Support, Finale 2004c won't crash on exit. -- Brad Beyenhof [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://augmentedfourth.blogspot.com MacSupport <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: The crash-on-quit is, indeed, a bug. It's related to a particular file which is created when the software is registered. Our engineers are working on a fix but, in the meantime, taking the file out of the folder should alleviate the problem. The file name is demdata.txt and it resides in the OS Library in another folder titled Application Support. Drag it to the trash and empty the trash. The demdata.txt file is used to automatically carry the serial number forward to the next registration on the computer. Just keep a record of that serial number so that you can enter it when you next need to register an upgrade. Your serial number is also available in your account at finalemusic.com. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
