I am so tired of this.

I've re-installed Finale, done things with preferences etc., really tried to track this down to no avail. Now Speedy Entry doesn't work, and articulations are not working, and I can't figure out anything. I may just go back to 2005b and be done with it, if I have any serious work to do.

I've got to give it a rest.

Hey Chuck,

If you double-click on a tuplet or chord with the selection tool, it should switch you to the appropriate tool. For instance, if you have "Type Into Score" in the Chord Tool selected, you should be able to double-click on a chord, and the chord will be highlighted. If you press Tab, it should take you to the next chord and the insertion point should appear.

The other thing you can do is launch Finale with a copy of the prefs I gave you, and then immediately uncheck "Save Preferences When Quitting Finale" in the program options. (Don't open any documents.) Then manually save prefs and quit. This should keep your prefs from being further modified in any way, which should help you troubleshoot the problem.

Something mysterious is still wrong. I quit Finale and re-opened the document, and there was the problem again.

So I tried Darcy's suggestion of using the selection tool on an existing tuplet, and that works as expected. Selecting existing chords with that tool also does what it is supposed to, but the Chord Tool and the Tuplet Tool have stopped working again, and I am baffled.

I'm not going to worry about this and get all worked up about it. I'll just keep messing with it, and if it persists, I'll call MM on Monday to see what they have to say about it. I don't have a "feel" for where the problem lies.
