You are having the same problem I was having when I installed Fin2K7 on my Mac; I still had installed (and was still using) Fin 2k6, and something in the installation of 2K7 screwed with the registration for each app, because whichever version I used last seemed to be overwriting the registration for the other. Each time I launched, I would get the prompt to register, and each time I would register, and then launch the other version, I would get the prompt again. This went on for weeks, (along with other GPO & JABB glitches, freezes, crashes, non-access to the full versions of the Garritan libraries) even though I was in daily communications with MM to solve the issues. I finally resolved my problems with 2K7 by not using it at all. I'm still running 2K6 successfully with almost no problems (using GPO and JABB, full versions). The few documents I created with 2K7, I printed out and re-entered in 2K6. Not a pretty or acceptable solution, but I have been able to keep working while I watch this FInale list and see all the anomolies others are reporting about 2K7 and 2K8.
