Re: [Finale] Emergency help
Hey Justin, OK, partial success. Deleting the ini files allowed Finale to recognise my Roland. However, at first only the simple entry method worked, but after playing around a little with the midi controls I got the speedy entry to work again. Thank you for all your help.

If not, try this first: 1) Close Finale 2) Shut down your PC and turn off your Roland 3) Verify your USB/MIDI cables are still connected properly 4) Turn the Roland back on then turn the computer back on. Launch Finale and see if Finale recognizes it. If not, try the following. This will reset your preferences for Finale but will not impact any of your files. 1) Close Finale then open a Windows Explorer window. Turn on Hidden Files and Folders by going to the Tools menu Folder and Search Options View Tab and check Show Hidden Files and Folders. 2) Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\(Your User Name)\Application Data\MakeMusic\Finale 2012 3) Locate the files named Finale.ini and Finmidi.ini. Drag these to the Trash. 4) Reboot your PC and re-launch Finale. You should be prompted on open to re-select your MIDI preferences. Select the appropriate setup then see if Finale recognizes the device again. --- Justin Phillips justinwphill...@gmail.com (952) 923-9878 On Aug 12, 2014, at 9:44 PM, John Witmer wit...@nctv.com wrote: Sorry, this is a Windows XP - Original Message - From: Justin Phillips To: finale@shsu.edu Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2014 10:00 PM Subject: Re: [Finale] Emergency help Are you on a Mac or Windows computer? --- Justin Phillips justinwphill...@gmail.com (952) 923-9878 On Aug 12, 2014, at 8:52 PM, John Witmer wit...@nctv.com wrote: Suddenly, Finale '12 will not recognize my MIDI device, a Roland SK50 that I have used for many years with various versions of Finale. I get the message that I have installed an input device that is out of the range of my music although I have done nothing different other than turning Finale off and on. The computer hasn't even been turned off since I used Finale last. (yesterday) I did notice that Finale had lost my specialized templates. Can anyone suggest a fix. I need to transcribe some music ASAP.

[Finale] How do I get playback to skip some measures???
How do I get playback to skip some measures??? WinFin 2014, or 2012, either or both: I want to put some cuts in for playback but leave those measures in the score. I've tried the repeat tool, which, I thought, ws the way that I had done this in the past. No options for jumping in expressions. What am I missing???

Re: [Finale] How do I get playback to skip some measures???
For me the simplest method would be about making a renamed copy of the file. And then just delete the bars of the jump.

[Finale] Need to show resting section staff in solo passage?
In a work for string orchestra, I have a passage with 4 solo first violins, and the rest of the section in resting. I have included 4 staves in the score for the first violins and will hide the empty staves when I lay out the rest of the score. These four staves will be included in the Violin I part. Do I need to have a fifth staff with rests to show that the rest of the section is not playing this passage? Or are the current four sufficient with the staves labelled as solo for this passage?

Re: [Finale] Patterson Lite beaming plug-in
Thanks! That did it! ajr Robert Patterson rob...@robertgpatterson.com wrote: From the FAQ: *1.7 What causes an error message like FinPIStaffSystem::FinPIStaffSystem-Unable to load Enigma Data. EXTAG is'O%SS'* This most likely is due to a bug in Finale's Auto Update Layout feature. You can usually work around the problem by turning off Auto Update Layout. Auto Update Layout causes a substantial performance hit, so learning to work without it is not necessarily bad.
