Re: [Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
I'm having the same problem in both locations. Unlike all previous versions, 2011 won't recognise my edited default document. - Nigel Hanley On 08/03/2011, at 7:26 AM, A-NO-NE Music wrote: On 2011/03/07, at 14:20, Andrew Levin wrote: user/Library/Application Support/MakeMusic/Finale 2011/Music Files/Default Files I believe it is supposed to be ~/Libraries/Application\ Support/MakeMusic/Finale\ 2011/Libraries/ The one under Music Files dir is a backup copy. -- - 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 ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Re: [Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
I don't want to edit a default file, I want to replace it with my default file. Otherwise I've got to start again every time there is a new Finale.

Re: [Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
Yes, but re-creating your default file from scratch in each new version is actually a good idea. It's a huge pain, of course, but it ensures that there are no conversion artifacts.

I respond: That's what I did. Started fresh with the original Maestro Font Default from Finale 2011 (although at this point I don't remember which one from it's many locations). I have some templates in the template folder in my user folder's Music Files, and Finale reads them just fine. But it won't find my default file. Arrgghh!

Re: [Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
I hear you. But I'm not sure that it's such a good idea to try to use files created with older versions of Finale in newer versions. I got into trouble doing this a few versions back, and since then have made a point of taking an hour to edit the fresh new default file in each new version. Since then no more problems.

[Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
Hi, all. I can *swear* I'm doing everything right, and yet I'm stifled. When pressing command-N for a new document Finale tells me that it can't find the Maestro Font Default file and will create a new one. First, my specs: MacPro Dual Core 2 GHz MacOS 10.6.6 Finale 2011c.r1 I went to: user/Library/Application Support/MakeMusic/Finale 2011/Music Files/Default Files And changed Maestro Font Default to Maestro Font Default.orig, then placed my new and improved Maestro Font Default in its place. It's the original default file with lots of small changes (and it opens just fine when I double click on it in the Finder). Under Program options I've selected the folder listed above. I've restarted many times. I've also deleted the folder entirely, placed my new files in the harddrive path to the same files, then used MakeMusic's supplied Terminal app to move files from there to my own user folder (as I tried by hand earlier). After resetting the Program Options again to look in the Default Files in the user path and restarting, still no luck. I even pointed to harddrive path. Still no luck. What am I missing? I know people have offered solutions to this in the past, but my set-up was working, so didn't pay attention. I would appreciate any help that could be given. (I'm also on the digest, so my replies might take day). Thank you. Andrew Levin ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
