So, eventually, after tediously trying multiple installs, I finally managed to manually locate and remove all Garritan and Plogue files from my computer. I had had already tried Library/Application Support, ~/Library/Application Support, and ~/Library/Preferences, but it turns out there are also files in Library/Audio that need to be removed to get a clean reinstall. (ARIA really needs to come with an uninstaller.)
I also had to remove all sample files. After that, doing a complete reinstall in the following order worked: GPO4 JABB3 Finale 2014.5 (Garritan Instruments and ARIA player) ARIA Player v1.872 An absolute nightmare that took untold hours, but at least I’ve got the GPO and JABB instruments back. In future, it would be nice to know if there were a less brute-force method.

I’ve followed the instructions here: http://makemusic.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5381/~/setting-up-garritan-sound-libraries-in-finale-and-printmusic The result is that instrument libraries show up as options in Finale 2014.5, but the instrument samples don’t load. I’ve also tried directing ARIA (latest version) to my Applications folder, which contains the “Garritan Jazz and Big Band 3” and “Garritan Personal Orchestra 4” folders. These libraries then show up as “User” libraries in the ARIA player but the samples still don’t load. Has anyone gotten this to work?
