Versions of Finale prior to MacFin2006d CANNOT be registered on Intel- based Macs.
I've been warning about this for some time. Infuriatin' idn'it? A direct consequence of the tethered copy protection many so blythely accepted a few years back. (Not that any of us really had a choice, other than Win and/or Sibelius.)
The biggest irony is that I believe there is a 3rd party program for Intel macs that emulates Classic thru I believe System 9.0-something. It is quite likely you can run Fin03 and earlier on that. Perhaps eventually even Fin04 in OS9 mode.
Makemusic has zero incentive to support Fin04 or Fin05 under Rosetta. Write those versions off before you get too much heartburn. I did long since. If your work really depends on them, hang on to (or buy if you don't still have) an old PPC laptop.
