Linda, For changing the MIDI tracks - do you mean "send patches before play" that used to be in the Instrument Window and now is in the Playback/Record options Window in the Playback Controls Window? If that box is not checked, all your instruments will play piano only and not the individual patches they are set for. Bonnie

They look great, but I keep coming across things that don't work, or that don't work the same way I'm used to. A couple of them have me completely hung up. 1) I can no longer find any "Instrument List" to change internal instruments (I use them for checking only). 2) I need to change the MIDI files of each track in order to create a standard MIDI file that can then be opened with all the tracks as separate staves. How do I do that in 2012? I've been doing this for decades without a hitch and suddenly don't have a clue! 3) a lot of text blocks (both attached to page and attached to measure) will not show up with the little handle that lets me move them, delete them, open them etc. I have had to delete measures to get rid of unwanted or screwed up text blocks and then re entered the music for those measures (PAIN!) AND 4) The text too will not do what it has always done. In 2010 when I double clicked anywhere on the score it allowed me to create a text block. Now... nothing. Sometimes it works, but it usually doesn't. Where did I go wrong. Any help on any of these issues and I'm a friend for life!
