Well I will have to say, before he figured this out he was wiping his drive every 30 days. So maybe the key is to wipe your drive, install 2006, register it, then install 2005 and register it with a clean drive. I know it sounds crazy but he was desperate and worked very hard to get 2005 registere

Steve, I have no idea what kind of crazy voodoo your friend pulled, but the reason I cannot register Finale 2005 is because the Finale 2005 Registration Wizard will flat-out not run on Intel Macs. Period. It didn't run when Finale 2006 was unregistered, and it still doesn't run now that F

He registered 2006 first. Then register 2005. He has been working this way for the last 6 months. It works beautifully and it is possible...we just cannot remember the exact steps. Good Luck, Steve On 2/23/07 2:51 PM, "Darcy James Argue" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Steve, > > I'm afraid I do

Steve, I'm afraid I don't see how this is possible. It if is, I'd love to know exactly how it was done. The registration for Fin2006 doesn't have anything to do with the registration for Fin2005 or Fin2004. All versions need to be registered via the Registration Wizard -- but the 2004/200

FWIW: I have a co-worker who was able to register (or fake register) his 2005 so it works under Rosetta. He (doesn't recall the process exactly) either installed 2005 then installed 2006 (without registering). Or installed 2006 then installed 2005 (without registering). Either way, he registered 2

I also do not understand why MakeMusic refused to sell the 2K6 upgrade to a registered Finale user who did not want to migrate to 2K7 yet, but needed to get up to 2K6 to collaborate with me on a potentially long term project: and this was in September, 2006 just after the pre-release of 2K7.

Hey all, I don't recall this topic being discussed on the Finale list before, so I thought I'd draw everyone's attention to it now: Versions of Finale prior to MacFin2006d CANNOT be registered on Intel- based Macs. That means that if you purchase a new Mac (as I recently did), you cannot r
