Once of the great improvements in 2014 and higher is beat-attachment of smarts shapes (rather than measure attachment). Not only can you get more precise endpoints, you can unlink the endpoints in parts and edit them separately. Another great improvement (with 2014) is that most of the special

Hi all, I've kept working in Fin2011 for several years, because it has met my needs and because I haven't been working in Finale enough lately to figure out a new version. But I've been having a few minor compatibility issues with Windows 10, so I think it's time to move on. I have both Fin2012

[Finale] Upgrading to Finale Mac 2014

I finally bit the bullet yesterday and purchased a MacBook Pro running Mavericks. You guessed it: Finale 2012 is dead (along with a slew of my other apps). Anyone have any idea whether there is likely to be an upcoming upgrade-special that will make the leap to Finale 2014 cheaper than $139?

Re: [Finale] Upgrading to Finale Mac 2014

Finale 2012 is supposed to work in Mavericks. Have you tried re-installing? Often the Finale installation breaks for me when I upgrade the OS or migrate to another computer. Re-installation fixes it. Christopher On Wed Jul 16, at WednesdayJul 16 7:26 AM, Thurletta Brown-Gavins wrote: I

10.9 (mavericks) didn't break finale 2012 for me. My 10.9 system still can run finale 2008 just fine. Actually, 10.9 upgrade was probably the most painless upgrade in a long time for me. I can't think of anything that stopped working. Also, in the upcoming 10.10, finale 2014 and 2012 work Sent

Re: [Finale] Upgrading to Finale Mac 2014

The only problem I had after the Mavericks upgrade was printing 2 sides up on 12x18 landscape. Seems to be a compatibility problem with Mavericks and HP. The only way I can make it work is to save as a PDF and configure each PDF part separately to 12X18 landscape. If anyone has a work around,

Re: [Finale] Upgrading to Finale Mac 2014

Incompatibility with an old (and still reliable) HP 5000 is the only thing that prevents me from upgrading to Mavericks. As far as I can tell (haven't checked this lately) there are no drivers that will work with this printer and Mavericks. There were some suggestions of things to try - but

10.9.4 seems to be incompatible with my printer driver. (10.9.2 was for sure fine, and I'm not certain about 10.9.3.) But I am still able to print because I run Snow Leopard with VMWare Fusion. I highly recommend setting up a virtual of the oldest Mac OS you can using Fusion. It has saved many of

That still confuses me chuck because I never once had a printing problem with my HP 5000 when I upgraded to Mavericks or now even on 10.10. Now I don’t duplex but I print booklet style and multiple sizes of paper as well. ___ J. Scott

I wish I understood how this is working for you. I am not the only one with this problem. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5676471 This thread aptly describes my experience - including HP's eagerness to sell me a new printer. They simply say that they no longer support the old product.

Scott, What size paper are you printing on? I can print on 8½ x 11 11 x 17 both landscape and portrait, and 9 x 12 portrait with no problem. But when I try to print on 12 x 18 landscape I am not able. As I have researched this it seems to apply across the board outside of Finale. I noticed a

Jim, Unfortunately I have no 12x18 paper to test to. I mainly print single sheets here. My larger prints (two sheet paper i.e. 12x18) are printed elsewhere. I have no need to keep that paper in stock. I print large formatted scores mostly.

Hi Robert, I was getting severe crashes with Fin2012a, which I eventually discovered were related to my MIDI Thru setting, of all things. If your MIDI Thru is currently set to Off, try turning it on (use Fixed or Smart or whatever, it doesn't seem to matter so long as it is on) and see if

Aha. I did turn off MIDI Thru because I didn't want to hear the instrument sounds on top of my kbd sounds in Speedy. Do you know another way to suppress them? On Mon, Apr 23, 2012 at 12:32 PM, Darcy James Argue djar...@earthlink.netwrote: Hi Robert, I was getting severe crashes with Fin2012a,

Hi Robert, Yes -- you can assign the MIDI Thru to an empty Fixed channel that does not have an instrument associated with it. Let me know if this helps! If it does, please report it to MM, as the bug is 100% reproducible on my system, but it would be nice to have corroboration. Cheers, - DJA
