How long does it typically take Make Music to Debug something like this?

I also lost Address Book contacts and iCal entries after installing Fin2006.  My .Mac account came in handy for restoring the lost data!

Oh crap. I just installed Finale 2006 and I noticed that I had lost
my Firefox preferences, bookmarks, addons and other settings. (And
my Snitch settings are also gone.) I just checked my address book
now and noticed that it was empty too except for an Apple listing.


This could be coincidence. I've had the same thing happen to me in
10.3 -- suddenly the Address Book emptied completely, for no
apparent reason.

It's *really* important to back up your Address Book data regularly.


Yeah, I have backups for most things. I checked permissions before
and after installing Finale 2006 (and other included installers).

Here is a partial list of things missing right after installing Finale 2006:

Address book contacts
iCal entries
Firefox additions, extensions and preferences
Lil Snitch preferences
MOTU 828mkII Firewire interface settings
I'm still discovering more!

OK, this could have been bad luck and a coincidence, but when another
user reported similar losses after installing Finale 2006 on Tiger, I
have to seriously wonder if all is well. Perhaps other early adapters
could add their data points to this discussion.
