Are you sure it is a Finale file? What if you rename it jose.musx. Try that.
The name itself isn't important to a degree but the file extension is and it must be a file made by Finale.

Right click on the desktop.
In the Display Setting drop down type "high contrast" in the search field. Select "Dessert" and see if that helps.

Jose,
On your desk top, no other program running or open, type File Explorer in the search field at the bottom of your screen. This will open where you need to be. Don't use Finale and or certainly not chrome to do this.

ebiggs1

All the best Billy.

ebiggs1

I agree with my colleagues, write it out is best practice.

ebiggs1

You are receiving that error message because the file you are opening used a different Aria Engine version than what you currently have installed on your computer. If you go to MIDI/Audio > Reassign Playback Sounds, the playback should work just fine. The Aria Engine is used for other libraries othe...

Billy it (Finale 27) will work and it will work well. Plus you don't have to do special tasks 54 times. If I may suggest, do you have a computer savvy person that could come by and make sure the installation is done correctly?

ebiggs1

These scripts can be called up with a keystroke command if you want to

ebiggs1

Oh, BTW, you can find it and other helpful and some not so helpful script plug-ins here. https://www.finalelua.com/scripts

ebiggs1

Brent,
I don't know if you use plug-ins and scripts but there is a RPG Lus script that puts most all page settings on one place. Page Format Wizard.

Before you copy, make sure you have selected "Copy Clefs: Always" in the Edit Filter

No before you do anything make a "Save as" new file. Don't mess with the original.

Another thought you can do whatever to this save as file. Just select and delete what you don't want.

Billy something else is going on obliviously. You saw and listened to my last piece. You can have the exact same results or perhaps even better. Troubleshooting from afar is always more difficult. At this point I would suggest if you know a friend that is a computer guru or you have a store like Mic...

Does it work?

ebiggs1

Well that counts me out.

Wine? Please explain with more info.

...Lower than that I wouldn't write for a Big Band section.

Wow, jazz charts routinely have a trumpet part with two ledger line A, B above it and middle C. At least all the ones I have seen or played.

ebiggs1

I don't do extremely long charts. A 100 to 150 measures of concert band just about gets it but I still save often and I do Save As with an extension like underscore A or _B, _C. I have three 2 terabyte external HD's for my backups. I don't like the "cloud" or Dropbox, personally. If I ever would use...

ebiggs1

... write for Tpt more than one or two ledger lines below the staff.

Middle C or an A ? Common notes for trumpet.

ebiggs1

i got three oldie cornets; special place in me heart for cornet. I am not a trumpet/cornet player by any means but I can hang with any of the 5th and 6th graders at our school! :D 3rd space C just about does it for me! However, I have a circa. 1907(?) York Bb/A cornet. It is silver with a gold wash...

You won't get an upgrade deal from a "copy that's not yours", so to speak.

I agree. Your "friend' will have to ask for the upgrade and he/she will have to have the original serial number. And that serial number must be assigned to that person could be through an email name, address, etc.

Billy I am not familiar with the Dell Optiplex 7050 but it looks like it meets the minimum requirements to run Finale 27.4.1. 27 works on thousands of Windows computers mostly without issue and it will for you, too. I would send you a link to my latest piece which has a cornet solo in it but it isn'...

ebiggs1

I did by a new PC. Hopefully, Finale v27 will perform better on that one. Billy. Billy I can assure you 27.4.1 will run almost flawlessly on a Windows computer. It has for me, as all the older version have, and there is nothing special about me nor my machine. Exactly what computer did you buy? My ...

All I can say is my former high school and middle schools ditched Smart Music because nobody liked it. Not the students nor the parents and not even the music teachers. So I hope their new try is a lot better but somehow I don't really see it. It seems like a wasted area to pursue as your future. I ...
