Hi Darcy,
I wish I could say that I was having more success communicating with
MM than others on this list, but my experience is the same. Still, I
encourage you to call Jim Bruce and speak to him about this
impossible situation. You've paid for the use of the software and it
is unethical for them to do anything that prevents you from
continuing to use it.

Good luck,
Chuck

Yes, you are correct: it's purely due to the copy protection
scheme. I have kept a copy of Finale 2005 on my recent intel iMac
and it works fine because I used the transfer settings
application, and it seems to have transferred the registration
factor or whatever across as well.
What is this "transfer settings" application? Do you mean the
FireWire Target Mode transfer that you get asked about when you
turn on your new Mac for the first time? That's exactly what I
used. It didn't work -- Finale knows that my computer has changed
and the copied registration isn't valid.
It would be a fairly trivial matter for Makemusic to supply a one-
license version of this to you I'm sure: whether they'd want to or
not is another question.
The guy I spoke to emphatically did not want to help me.
Cheers,
- Darcy
