[Finale] Space key to start / stop playback on Windows version

2017-06-09 Thread Dave Lang
Hi - I'm changing from the Mac version to the Windows version and the way stop / starting playback works is frustrating me. On Mac the space bar stops / starts the playback as it does on almost every piece of audio / video software I've ever worked on. But on the Windows version it doesn't.

[Finale] Finale forum closing

2016-12-03 Thread Dave Lang
I know Mark Adler reads this list so I wanted to let him know how frustrated and angry many VERY knowledgeable Finale users are with MM's decision to close the existing user forums. It may not be your decision but it reflects poorly on the company. Shame. Some reaction at the link below.

Hi Giovanni - did you receive any responses to your question? I don't know how to do it but I am definitely interested in learning. Sometimes Finale changes the file on its own without telling me (often when a file is opened) and I would like to be able to prevent it from doing this. cheers,

Re: [Finale] New Mac Book and Finale 2010

2016-01-15 Thread Dave Lang
When I updated to a retina Macbook Pro laptop last year Finale 2012 looked so bad that I ended up moving to 2014. Since 2014d was updated to 2014.5 just to allow Finale to run on El Capitan, I would expect that you would have problems running 2010 on that OS, but I'm just guessing. Maybe

fwiw the most dramatic speed increase in F2014 for me came after I removed F2012 from my system. I have no idea why, and can't guarantee that you'll have the same experience, but that's what I found. And by dramatic, I mean, dramatic. (using MacBook Pro running OSX) best of luck, dave On
