I just ran an experiment, started with the default single-line file. Opened Score manager, clicked on Full Name, typed Alto Saxophone. Then I clicked on Abbr. Name and entered A. Sax and everything is working like it should once I clicked OK. The new names appeared instantly on screen. I was in scroll view when I entered them, so the only thing which showed up was the full name, but the instant I switched to Page view, both the Full Name and the Abbr. Name appeared just as I had entered them.
So the only thing I can think of might be that you didn't click OK after entering the new names? I'm using Finale2014.5 on Windows10 -- I don't have Finale2012 installed. David H.
