Just to let you know that you are not alone in observing this behavior, only I haven't been careful enough to notice exactly when it happens. I do remember that it often occurs in updated files, and that the duplicates are sometimes multiple. This kind of thing may well be linked to the new copy and paste behavior. I include myself in the list of those who find it (the new copy and paste behavior) unfathomable and annoying.

I have no idea when the duplicates showed up, because they are exact copies of the original, superimposed perfectly. There is no way to even tell they're there except by clicking on them individually and dragging, to see if they leave their clone behind.
Frankly, I'm stumped.
Hmm, so am I. Are you CERTAIN that they are actually there? That is, are they still there after a cmd-D screen redraw?
Oh yes. They have their own handles, and I can move them independently. If I offset them from the original, they print. (Well, they print even without offsetting them, it's just that the two hairpins print exactly on top of each other. They are definitely a second set of hairpins, and they're all over the place.
Not just this one score, by the way. I haven't checked, but I think many of my old documents have spawned duplicate hairpins. It's just that most of the time, I don't notice, since I almost never move hairpins by clicking and dragging.
When you open an old file, try checking right away to see if they are there. You could try checking in 2004 as well, to see if they are there.
I don't have the original Fin2k4 draft score -- I deleted it after I started working on it in 2k5 (probably not the wisest move, I admit).
