Chuck-- You've received some good suggestions, I'll just add one more:
1. Put in your system restore (or operating system if you've upgraded your OS...) disk 2. Reboot, holding down the C key 3. Select a language. 4. Go to the Utilities menu and choose Disk Utility 5. Select your hard drive, and click Repair disk. 6. When that's finished, click Repair permissions. 7. Reboot and see if you have fewer issues. NOTE: These are 10.5 instructions, I can't remember where Disk Utility is in the 10.4 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chuck Israels Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 5:46 PM To: finale@shsu.edu Subject: [Finale] continued trouble with 2008b > Hi all, I'm still having trouble with Finale corrupting the preference file when quitting. It no longer freezes. It seems to quit without obvious incident, but the next time I try to open it, it quits before the opening is complete. Before I complain yet again to MM about this, is it possible (or likely) that something in my system is causing this? Am I the only one experiencing this profound annoyance? I'm getting too good at rebuilding my preferences! Also, is there a place on my computer that I can keep a copy of the preferences that Finale will not see it and get confused, and what is a good, step by step procedure to follow when Finale will not open? Thanks guys (and gals).
