Hi Eric

Yes, the Get Info .> Open With > Change All routine doesn't work with Finale and never has. It is particularly galling because if you inadvertently open the wrong version of Finale you can lose all your preferences. You simply have to remember always to open Finale first, then open the document..

Regards
John

Hi all,

While I hesitate to perpetuate (hmm...maybe there's a lyric in there...) the thread I started with my "Open With" question, FYI I had already done all the steps everyone has kindly suggested before posting my original question:

- Trying "Open With/Other" from within both the Get Info window and the contextual menu;
- Selecting "Change All" from within both the Get Info window and the contextual menu;
-  I've even repaired Permissions.

Still, the file won't "remember" the "Open With" association after I close it! As soon as I close it and double click the file icon, FinMac 2006 Demo launches instead of 2005b. This is admittedly a very minor annoyance, however I guess the Type-A component of my personality would like to figure this out. Is there anything else I'm missing?

Once again...thanks in advance,
Eric
