Because I had problems with Migration Assistant going from PPC to Intel, I did
some research online and found that there was indeed quite a lot of discussion
about the issue. It works without flaw for many, but others, such as myself,
found that the program would hang.
The main solvable problem
Having suffered through a college degree to get a major in saxophone
performance, we studied classical music only in lessons. There is a lot
of repertoire out there for it. Plus a lot of the Oboe repertoire has
been arranged for saxophone as well. Then there is the whole quartet
aspect. And the

Many of Bill's fonts never worked correctly with OS X. The problem was only
with specific character slots (cmd-opt-2, for instance). If you never use the
glyphs at those spots then you wouldn't encounter the problems, but if you did
need those glyphs, until now you were out of luck.

Hopefully it will be really reasonably priced (as in like $20). I mean,
the fonts work fine for me as they are (Mac 10.6, latest
Finale).so.what would be the incentive to upgrade them?

Hi Jef,
Just use the Migration Assistant. Choose your options sensibly and it will
almost certainly be fine.

The first Mac Mini was PPC, but all the rest were based on Intel
chips, so I would check that before you start.

"abso-freakin-lutely." I love it in the Army, I quickly
became used to the insertion of four-letter words between standard
syllables. It became an art form.
Thanks for the memories ...

And,
Generally, things are easily transferred between a new mac and an old
one. You just boot the old mac into target disk mode (reboot it and hold
down the T key). Then use the Migration assistant, and you are set.
Having transferred many Macs over the years, you do get the occasional

Richard, that is it! For some reason this didn't work the last time I
tried this (the beamlet changed length), but it works perfectly in 2010!
This can be copied from measure to measure as well, so if it shows up
many times, Dennis can just copy the edit without the notes. Great!

If you must use a tuplet instead of a time signature of 12/8 as four dotted
wuaters, then you have to use the Broken Beam Tool to switch the sixteenth
beamlet to the other side.

Is your 12/8 not set up in the Time Signature dialog box as 4 dotted
quarters?
Also, your jpg link is broken.
