Hi Karen,  I'll try this too.

Something will have to work!

If I save the preferences to a backed up place and then reinstall them, will the backed up preferences be corrupted so that I must rebuild them anyway?

I'm not sure I understand where the "corruption" lives, if it is possible to "save" the preferences that seem to be causing the problem.

First thing I'm going to try is the opening from within 2006 to see if that works any differently.

I'll report soon.

thanks,

Chuck

Hi Chuck,

Try opening the older files from within Finale 2006 rather than double clicking them to open...also, I would create a backup of your Finale preferences once you have them the way you want them. Then when this happens, you can at least save yourself the trouble of re-creating them each time. Make sure to quit Finale before dragging the backed up preferences into your library>preferences folder.

Just another thought...

Well, it has happened again, and maybe this has to do with conversion from older documents. Now neither the chord tool, nor the tuplet tool will work. (This is in an up-converted file.) And opening a new 2006 default document exhibits the same behavior. So, I can again delete and rebuild the preferences, but how can I prevent this from happening every time I go to work on an old file?

Frustrating!
