I have experience the same problem in the past and it has happened
when I have somehow messed up by doing illegal commands, or simply made
unreasonable requests, I guess you could say, with tools or mass mover
or such. The only thing that I could do was to go the most recent
good file
and recopy it to a new template which I made to match the document as
I had evolved it to be at the time I contaminated it. Usually the
reconstruction
process was not all that long or tedious as I knew exactly what I
wanted to do. Annoying, but in the end you will come out with a
better product.

Yes, I do have a copy "saved as". I said that on my post. It gives
the same error. All three files give the same error: the main file,
the ".asv" copy and the "saved as" copy. It seems as if although the
file was still open, it was already corrupted when both copies were
made.

Did you not have a "copy" of the file also? This is usually the
case with Finale. Also, I always do a save as, every time I close
a file after working on it.
That way, I will always have a file that is very recent to revert
to if I lose the present one. I may not help your present
situation, but it will never happen again
if you do this.

This is the third score I've lost. I spent hours of work on this
one, and when tried to open it I got this message:
"While attempting to open file [fileName] the File Manager
reported an error. -39"
Is there any way of getting it back? I have the autosave on, but
the file.asv.mus is gone, just the same, and another copy I made
with the "save as" command is gone too.
Macbook, Finale 2009
I think this, as well as the others were originally 2008 files
saved as 2009, erased and started anew.
Any hope here?
Thanks,
Harold
