Pickups as implemented in Finale are always a pain in the butt. Instead, set the first measure to be 1/4 but click the box to use a different time signature for display and set that to be 4/4. Then the tuplets should stay as you want because it is a normal measure, not the hybrid bastardization that Finale uses for pickups.
