I suspect that you have found a bug in Finale 2012. I've just been on the phone with Tech Support. Un...

Yes, via File menu > Open File->Open does not work for me (using Finale 2012). When I go to open the file, I get a message that says: "invalid file type..."

Can ETF files be opened in Finale 2012? If so, how?
