I didn't mean to imply that Finale used the OS-specific convention for placement of a preferences dialog -- I only said that this was the kind of menu option that it was *appropriate* for there to be differences between Mac and Windows.
Yes, and that's what we're talking about -- preferences. That's the only difference.
In the present instance, the question was not about AU/VST
Obivously, I realize that.
it was about setting backup file locations.
Actually. Chuck was responding to Will's *first* question, which was about setting the default view (Page View vs. Scroll View vs. Studio View).
Chuck said for Mac: Preferences/Program Options/View
Chuck made a small mistake here. The option is found in Finale 2007 - > Preferences -> Program Options -> New (not View).
and Noel said for Windows: Edit > Program Options > New;
So yes, on Mac, the Program Options menu is found in the standard place for all Preferences in OS X. On Windows, it's in the Edit menu (which seems logical enough to me, but I'm not a Windows user).
I thought of one more difference. As of Finale 2007, Enharmonic Spelling is also in the Finale 2007 -> Preferences menu on Mac. I'm not sure where it is on Windows.
