Re: [Finale] Repair Corrupted File?
The first thing to try is File Maintenance. That might fix the problem. At the very least you'll get a report. On the report is something called "Frames". Hopefully that number is nowhere near 32767, otherwise you will be having continuing troubles. FWIW: Garritan, at least, starts much faster in Fin25 than some older versions. I don't know about Fin10, though. On Sat, Jul 1, 2017 at 2:41 PM, Michael Dutka wrote: > Hi, folks.

[Finale] Repair Corrupted File?
Hi, folks. Running Finale 2010 on Mac OSX 10.8.5. Been working on my first full-length opera, and the Act IV Finale (no pun intended) became, for want of a better word, corrupted. When I try to play it, it takes several minutes to load. Since I'm one of those, 'try this, play it, don't like it, try that, play it' type of composers, that makes work on the file pretty odious. I tried to export the file to .xml, and it keeps giving the message 'Error while exporting MusicXML file [FILENAME] at part 22, measure 11." Since that's somewhere in the string section (it doesn't seem to go by staves), I tried deleting the entire string section, exported it, imported it, and I get a file that loads and plays immediately. Now I'm trying again with the original file, deleting strings section by section / measure by measure to try to delete the measures with the error. Is there any easier way to do this? Is there someone I could (gladly!) pay to take my original corrupted file and send my back an uncorrupted file? Any advice / suggestions deeply appreciated.

Re: [Finale] Fill with rests
Hi Barbara, When I do this in 14.5, using Speedy Entry, in the too many beats dialog, if I tell it to move the extra notes into the next measure, it does just that. It only fills the rest of the measure when I exit the Speedy edit pane, not before. I do have fill with rests checked. Are you doing this differently, Simple entry perhaps? *** J D Thomas ThomaStudios > On Jul 1, 2017, at 9:08 AM, Barbara Touburg wrote: > > When there are too many notes in a measure, Finale moves them (if I say > so) to the next measure, *but then fills the rest of the next measure > with rests*.

[Finale] Fill with rests
When there are too many notes in a measure, Finale moves them (if I say so) to the next measure, *but then fills the rest of the next measure with rests*. I don't want that. Fill with rests is disabled in Speedy Options. Where can I disable this behaviour, please? Thanks!
