Can't say about autosave with the update (before yes) but FINMAC 2014d (is it?) 
still displays aberrant behavior (including the occasional crash) with inertia 
scrolling enabled.  I slowed it down and no crash so far but that is not a 
final assessment. GJB

I've never had this kind of crash, but no matter. It could happen.

I save *incremental numbered versions* at every point where recreating all my
work is going to be more trouble than "Save as...".

Finale files are relatively small compared with disk drive space. A recent
complex client score had numbers [Filename]0001 through [Filename]1487 -- and
took less than 2GB to hold them all. They were saved between 1 and 6 minutes
apart. Incremental saves give me a revert point if I make a serious error and
also protect against losing work due to crashes, cats, or stupidity.

I believe Mac requires some mousing, but on Windows my fingers are trained for
those 18 keystrokes: ALT, F, A, END, LEFT ARRO (x5), BCKSPC (x4), 4 new
digits, ENTER. Incremental file saved, work continues safely.
