Re: [Finale] Mac OS issue
Now you tell me….:-) You would think that after using Finale for 30+ years I would have known to take this wise precaution.

Re: [Finale] Mac OS issue
Hi Lawrence, Keep a couple of copies of your uncorrupted new preference file to use if the one you’re using becomes corrupted. That avoids the rebuilding process.

Re: [Finale] Mac OS issue
I solved my Crashing Finale problem by deleting the Finale Preferences File. Hated setting everything up again, but Finale is now running smoothly again. I wonder if this will fix Mike G’s problem as well. Larry Eden > On Feb 10, 2019, at 7:23 PM, Mike Greensill wrote: > > I just did the same and Finale 25 has slowed noticeably.

Re: [Finale] Mac OS issue
I just did the same and Finale 25 has slowed noticeably. Also a strange behavior has returnedwhen I use the staff tool to alter the distance between stave, all the music on the staves disappears while I'm moving them.

Re: [Finale] Mac OS issue
Looks like I might have jumped the shark with my warnings about the Security Update. My problems with Finale 25 have proven to be unrelated to the Security Update. Finale Mac 25 Mac Mini running Mac OS Mojave 10.14.3. I can crash Finale simply by changing tools….very unusual for my system. Question: I plan on doing a reinstallation of Finale. Should I delete the version (FinMac25) that is already on my Mac before reinstalling? Thanks for any assistance!
