This is what happened to me with 2008. Never got it to work. Mem
test didn't find anything, After exhausting everyones good advice, to
no avail, I tried completely reformating the disk and reinstalling all
programs from scratch. Still didn't work. I could run it with out
the MOTU software that I use for DAW and audio I/O, but as soon as I
installed it, I'd have the crash on start at the same spot you did.
Are you using MOTU software or hardware? What computer and system are
you using.

I was wondering whether anyone else had encountered a problem
wherein Finale 2009 won't start up at all. It gets to the
Initializing MIDI stage and then crashes. The Crash Log says
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x00000000bf7ffff0
I've trashed every Finale preference and plist file I can find,
rebuilt my MIDI system from scratch, re-installed Finale 2009,
restarted innumerable times, created a new user and tried to open it
from there but without success. It's extremely frustrating in every
respect.
Finale 2007 starts up fine (as well as it does in Leopard).
Short of starting from scratch and reinstalling the entire system
and the entire drive, any suggestions?
Thanks for any tips,
Matthew
