What happened when everyone else ran the Finale 2007a updater? Did you end up with separate "Finale 2007" and "Finale 2007a" apps, or just a single, updated app named "Finale 2007."

Hi Darcy,

I think I ended up with a single 2007 version in my applications folder, but had to reassign my QuickKeys shortcuts to 2007a r3 or whatever it was called - not sure I remember this correctly, but that's what I think happened.

Huh?  I just ran the Finale 2007a installer and it installed an
application called Finale 2007, and the about box says 2007a.r3 for
Macintosh

Same with the updater.

Hey Allen,

I'm afraid this isn't how it works now -- the installer
(confusingly)
left Finale 2007a in place, and created a new application
called just
"Finale 2007." At first, I wasn't sure if the installer had even
worked. Since the Fin2007a installer leaves the original Fin2007 in
place, I think a lot of users will be confused about this.

I'm all for maintenance updates replacing the earlier versions
instead of creating a second (or third, or fourth) copy of the app,
but the behavior needs to be consistent and clear.


Cheers,

- Darcy

I would actually be in favor of NOT appending "a", "b", etc to the
filename, provided this was done consistently, and that the Finale
maintenance updates would actually UPDATE the app instead of
creating
a duplicate.

This is how it works now.
