Finale 2007, Windows 10. I have recently returned to Finale after a long break and I have forgotten (if I ever knew) how to correct the following without seriously affecting the work I have already done. All the notes on the piano base stave have jumped one octave down from where they should be. Obviously I have accidentaly pressed that which I shouldn't, so could anyone out there enlighten me on how to put matters right? PS: the treble stave is not affected. Thank you, Ken

I believe Finale 2007 still has the Mass Mover tool. Go to the Mass Mover tool and select the entire bass staff clicking in the first measure and then pressing Shift-right-arrow. Then use Transpose from the Mass Mover menu.

Highlight the effected measures and hit the 9 key on the top number row for octave up. Hit the 8 key for octave down.
That worked as far back as I can remember.
