Hi Dean,
There are some books too. One called (if memory serves) OS X - The
Missing Manual. Not exactly entertaining but pretty well written,
and it will get you familiar with the ways of controlling your
computer. I have a copy and occasionally open it to a section about
something that's giving me trouble, read through the chapter, and
find important information.

Dean,
To remove the original Fin2006 icon from your dock, just drag the
icon out of the Dock. Simple.
One would think so, but when I dragged, it just popped back into
the dock ... hmmmmm.
If you want to remove the original Fin2006 from your hard drive
entirely, open the "Finale 2006b" folder, and drag "Finale 2006"
to the trash.
Do you live near an Apple retail store by any chance? Reason I
ask, many of them offer regular, free OS X workshops that might
help you get more comfortable with this stuff.
Not real close, but I sure could use some study in the matter.
Thanks again for all the good info.
Dean
Here's a list of Apple Store retail locations:

You can check the store's calendar to see if they offer that sort
of thing.

Ok, now some really stupid questions. 2006b is in my dock ..
that's fine. So is 2006.
(1) I'm not sure how to drag and delete 2006.
(2) If I do delete 2006, will all my 2006 files open in 2006b,
and thence be able to be saved as audio files, etc.
Hey guys, I'm a tyro, ok?

Dean,
If you received that error message, you aren't running Finale
2006b.
I hate to point out the obvious, but are you sure you INSTALLED
the upgrade? You have to double-click on the installer after
you have downloaded it.
The other thing is, you must make sure you are launching Finale
2006b and not the original Finale 2006 (unlike most installers,
the Finale 2006b installer does not replace the old version). If
you have Fin2006 in your dock, drag it out of there and replace
it with Finale 2006b. You can even delete your original Finale
2006 application to be certain you don't inadvertently launch
Finale 2006 instead of Finale 2006b.

I just tried to save a GPO file as an audio file, and the
message came up that Finale 2006 does not yet save a file as
audio while using NI AU instruments. Softsynth, yes, but not
the other. I downloaded the upgrade earlier today. Any thoughts?

Dean,
File -> Save Special -> Save As Audio File
This has worked for GPO instruments since Fin2006a.
If you never downloaded Fin2006a, there's no need to do so
now. Just download and install Fin2006b.
Cheers,

I think that's what I meant. I want to save a Fin File, in
GPO to a file I can then pull into my iTunes, and thence to a
CD. I didn't think that was possible with Fin2006, and if it
is, I don't see it in the "Save As" options. Maybe I'm
missing something.

If you mean saving a file with GPO as an audio file, this
was added in Fin2006a.
