Hi Dana, Just FYI, there is a FinaleScript to batch process a folder of files to convert them to the current version. This may save some time.

Thanks for all your >suggestions! Just "for the record", there were two underlying problems (and this is with FinMac 2004 in general). Its association with the .mus extension was some variety of Unix binary, and that was buried pretty deep in the OS. So just installing FinMac 2011 wasn't enough. Selecting it as the default application for all .mus files doesn't make it any easier. One must still tell it (for every OLD .mus file, created in FinMac 2004) to open the file with FinMac 2011. That really is...NOT cool. Regardless, Katherine is reducing the number of files composed in FinMac 2004 by converting them to 2011. All should be on the way to paradise now. Best, Dana _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
