Hey Allen,
Really? Hmm. That's very mysterious. Was there any change to the
installer behavior after the initial release of Finale 2007a? I
grabbed Fin2007a as soon as it was available, and I definitely ended
up with two separate apps after running the installer, one called
"Finale 2007" and one called "Finale 2007a."
What happened when everyone else ran the Finale 2007a updater? Did
you end up with separate "Finale 2007" and "Finale 2007a" apps, or
just a single, updated app named "Finale 2007."
Cheers,
- Darcy

Same with the updater.

Hey Allen,
I'm afraid this isn't how it works now -- the installer
(confusingly)
left Finale 2007a in place, and created a new application
called just
"Finale 2007." At first, I wasn't sure if the installer had even
worked. Since the Fin2007a installer leaves the original Fin2007 in
place, I think a lot of users will be confused about this.
I'm all for maintenance updates replacing the earlier versions
instead of creating a second (or third, or fourth) copy of the app,
but the behavior needs to be consistent and clear.
Cheers,
- Darcy

I would actually be in favor of NOT appending "a", "b", etc to the
filename, provided this was done consistently, and that the Finale
maintenance updates would actually UPDATE the app instead of
creating
a duplicate.
This is how it works now.
