Well, it is a Win2K4 file -- I didn't realize that libraries were version-specific.

You are unzipping the file first, right?

Aaron.


Libraries aren't SUPPOSED to be version, nor platform, specific. I can't open it in FinMac 2004b either. It corrupts my file in the same way (creating a blank multi-measure rest for the first 23 measures or so, and other odd behaviour, indicating most likely a corrupt file.)


Yes I unzipped it. It shows up as Bracket Articulation.LIB on my desktop, but Finale doesn't recognise it as a Finale file (no news there, since it came from a PC, it wouldn't have the Mac-specific headers). But when I ask Finale to load a library, select "All file types", and open it anyway (which works in most Mac programs to force recognition) I get the behaviour I described.

Perhaps a full Finale file, with only the articulation library loaded? I (nor my colleagues) don't usually have any problems with those, especially when zipped.
