Absolutely!  There are benefits, and stability is one.

Thanks GuysI did have auto save on, so I only lost 15 minutes
workwhich the way my brain is working these days ain't much work!

I opened it in 2012 and it seems OK. I was using 2010 because that's where
my template was. Time to put in the work and get up to speed in 2012.

If AutoSave is on, then it is possible that the last one of those is OK - 
missing whatever happened in between, of course.  If you can salvage an AS 
version, the next thing to do would be to check for a corrupted preference 
file.  This used to happen a lot in 2010 - so much so that I always kept a copy 
of my preference file handy to use as a replacement when they got corrupted.

I remember this same frustration - it happened often in 2010.

if you have auto-save on, wait for the next save, duplicate the file 
and open the dupe to check if your last edits were in it

if you don't... might be a good time to try out this function 8-)

what about save as?  i suppose the same thing, just checking

[Finale] File manager error, when trying to save.

2013-05-13 Thread Mike Greensill
I am currently working on a symphony pops score in Finale 2010. I just
tried to save it and got this message...

"While attempting to access the "TemporySaveFile" The file manager reported
an error."

So I thought I'd best make another copy of the score so I attempted to do a
"save as", but I got the same message.

I then tried to globally copy everything in case I had to start a new
template, and I got this messgae...

"While attempting to access the "EnigmaTemp171185" The file manager
reported an error."

Any ideas, I'm too scared to close the file?

Thanks Don. That does speed the work flow up a bit.
But I'd still like to know why the text is disappearing in conjunction with 
Speedy Entry. MM are you listening?

The zero key is the kbd short cut to go in and out of the Speedy Entry Box.
 Does that help you in this situation?

Thanks Michael. I suspected as much.
But again to the Finale community at large, let me try to put my problem 
another way:
Editing baroque music, we add the basso continuo using Ansgar Krause's 
Final-Generalbaß font as a line of Chorus-text under the staff. We would now 
like to add the realization of the figures in the right hand part one staff up, 
using speedy entry and playing the appropriate chords. However, when Speedy 
jumps to the next measure, all the numbers below the bass staff disappear and 
must be made to reappear with Command-d, which of course causes the Speedy 
Entry box to disappear. Frustrating and time consuming.
I suspect a bug, or rather some kind of disconnect,the kind that seems to pop 
up when you try to do something a little off the beaten path. Can anyone 
confirm this behavior: "Chorus" text disappearing during Speedy Entry?
Thanks!
Eric

The Redraw Options dialog was removed from Finale in version 2008. There's 
still a page in the help files called View/Redraw Options which must have got 
missed when obsolete pages were being removed.
