I have everything backed up in at least 4 places, and do regular backups every month, or every time I do a major section. That has saved my bacon more than once. With external hard drives and thumb drives as heap as they are, there's little excuse not to. cd >> On Apr 9, 2016, at 1:39 PM, Michael Dutka wrote: >> >> Hi, folks.

Re: [Finale] Finale Zapped An Entire Opera
This happens to me sometimes. I doubt Finale is the one at fault. Just create a new folder (possibly in a new directory) and save it there. Also, backup in at least two more places than on your hard drive, along with old versions. It isn’t really backed up until then. Don’t ask how I know.

Re: [Finale] Finale Zapped An Entire Opera
One word: BACKUP?? This could also be a OS issue. What version of Mac OS are you running. More info on your Mac system could help out here. *** J D Thomas ThomaStudios > On Apr 9, 2016, at 10:39 AM, Michael Dutka wrote: > > Hi, folks.

[Finale] Finale Zapped An Entire Opera
Hi, folks. Working on a long opera for years now, running Finale 10 on a MacBook Pro, and all of a sudden Finale can't find the folder I store it in. Finder finds the folder, and recently modified files show up in the recently modified files menu, but I can't save changes to the right folder, because it doesn't show up in the menu with the 'save as' command. Opened and closed Finale, rebooted, everything. Any ideas, suggestions? Thanks!
