Anyone getting this happening to them?
This depends on what OS version you are running. This problem didn't exist before Leo, and MM has fixed this problem with FinMac2009. Older Finale auth had an weird requirement how you are connecting to the internet. I don't really understand why this happens but the Service order of your network has to be: AirMac Ethernet ... ... You can reorder the Service order from the Network Pref Panel. Just reboot then auth again. It won't ask you again. You are out of luck if you are on OSX10.6.x. This reordering service trick won't work. You can upgrade to 2010, which doesn't have this problem, and I like 2010 much better than 2008 :-) -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
