Erik,
There are 3 things in Fontbook. Artic, Articlations.bmap, and
Articulations.suit
Which one is which? Do I need all 3?
Arghhh!

Usually, fonts get installed, I think, in Users/YOURUSERNAME/
Library/Fonts and are available just to that user. But, some
programs install the fonts in /Library/Fonts (Like Macintosh HD/
Library/Fonts) which is available to all users. There is an option
in Font book, in the preferences, to force the program to install a
font in a specific place. And, you can drag fonts from Collections
(Like Computer) to a User, and vice versa. I'm sure you already
knew all this.
Perhaps there were two copies that were different with the same
name that was causing the problem? Rather interesting problem......

I am in touch with Nick about this now.
Nd yes, I meant the Finale Library. I have moved symbols around
and deleted some, at my convenience so, if you replace the
articulations font in Fontbook (the application that handles fonts
on Macs) the root level of the computer cannot know what you've
done in Finale. If I'd given this a moment's thought, I could have
seen this coming. Experience is a hard teacher; first the test;
then the lesson.
Anyway, everything is now restored to working order. I re-
installed the Articulations font I had originally, and everything
is back in place. Now I would like to figure out how to proceed
to add the one new symbol Nick has made. Maybe Nick will be able
to tell me, or maybe I can figure out how to create it from one of
the existing symbols, which is what I think Nick did. It's simply
a re-orientation of something that's already there.
