TIFF files frequently look bad in Word on screen but usually print OK. Did
you try printing them? Also, did you try to open them as tiff files using
an
imaging program such as Photoshop, Quicktime, or any photo viewing

I can't speak to your specific question. I have tried running older Finale versions
under Classic on my G4, and they seem to work. I'm not trying to do any MIDI, and I
