Hi all, I just installed Finale on my netbook so I could use the Garritan player in a live performance situation (keyboard used as a cimbalom, since in a year of searching I couldn't find a cimbalom player willing to come to Vermont for the opera production). Unfortunately at 1024x600, my netbook

Found out how to place the jwinstrumentchange.bundle in the Plug-ins folder by means of a work-around not involving any third party commercial software. In the window popping up from pressing cmd-F I searched Plug-ins. The wanted folder did not occur, at least in my eyes in first attempt (which

There should be a folder in ~/Library/Application support/MakeMusic/Finale 2012 and the same path from you hard drives root directory. Installing finale 2012 does not move any of your old stuff. You will have to manually move annotations, default music files, plugins, etc... Sent from my iSomethi

Hi!, Klaus, I use the TinkerToolSystem from Marcel Bresink, http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/13662/tinkertool-system, to make the folders visible and invisible. This is one I have used several years so I have already paid for it. MacWorld Magazine also recommended using this application and I

My ignorance may be unique for this fine list, but I have to admit to it. I gratefully downloaded this plug-in. Read and followed the instructions on installing it. And ran into a problem which to me is pure voodoo. From the Program options I found the location of the Plug-ins folder. Pressed a

Hello! A new plug-in is now available for download from the Finale Tips site. It's called "JW Instrument Change" and works only with Finale 2012 and later versions. The plug-in maintains text instructions (as text expressions) at Finale 2012 Instrument Changes for the selected region. The posi

In order to scroll one bar at a time on Mac OS Lion, you can install Smart Scroll. It's free to evaluate from http://marcmoini.com/sx_en.html and I highly recommend it: using the default settings for right/left scrolling you can advance or go back one measure at a time using the keyboard. Micha
