Thanks for the reminder. I'll look at Score Manager. I took a long break from Finale when we moved, and forgot many details.
BTW, do I need to give the Forum my new email contact info since we moved?

Changing subtitle
I have just finished a trio for clarinet, cello, and marimba or vibraphone. When I first started it, I gave it the subtitle "for clarinet, cello, and marimba." Later I decided that a vibraphone would work well, and haven't been able to add that to the subtitle.

Re: lyrics
Thank you very much for your help, and happy new year. I'm following your suggestions and making some progress. I hope I attached the file correctly. One problem is those red lines -- the word extensions. I had to delete all the words to get rid of some, and others just stayed there. What I'm trying...

Re: lyrics; how to attach the file
If I knew how, I'd attach the offending 2 pages.
I do have a PDF of the corrected score without the problem lyrics, but I don't know if that can be entered into Finale and edited.

Finale version 25.3.0.276 Mac Mojave I messed up the lyrics in a piece that has to be finished by Sat., Jan. 5. Panic! The main thing I need to do is to delete some lyrics that need to be replaced. I know someone who can help with the replacement. I thought I entered them in layer 2, but clicking on...

disable autofill with rests
Mac
Finale version 25.3.0
How do I disable the autofill with rests function? In earlier versions of Finale, there was an option to enable it, but with the current version it's enabled all the time; can't find option to disable it.

Can't save file
Mac Finale Version 25.3.0.276 2017 -- and this is weird: when I tried to read the number again, and clicked the Final icon, it said 2014.5 I know I updated in March of 2017, and I'm having problems finding confirmation of that. When I clicked Save or Save as, I got: While attempting to access “Enigm...

Re: Finale not working right
Thank you very much, Mike. This is the most specific response I've gotten. It's an original Finale file -- a composition I've been working on for months. I didn't do anything unusual, but in the last few days it's been acting up. It's not a read-only file; other than this issue, my hard drive is wor...

Finale not working right
I'm using a Mac, with Finale 2014.5 Notes aren't always entered when I try to put them on the staff; sometimes can't scroll past the first two pages; if I change something, it doesn't show up until after I have done something else. I started a new version of an unfinished composition, thinking I mig...

Re: Can't save file
Now I've got it. I had been holding down the option key at the wrong time. I found the library and trashed the Finale 2014.5 Preferences. I then opened the file I couldn't save, and was able to save it and also save it as [title] backup. Thanks very much for helping me with this. Now I can continue ...

Re: Can't save file
Again, thanks for your information and your patience.
I had to force quit Finale. Now I'll follow your instructions.
The Go menu did not have Library listed. Is there an intermediary step that I didn't know about?

Re: Can't save file
No, I haven't done any of the things you suggested. Which preferences file should I trash? The only one I know about is System Preferences, which seems irrelevant. I have not tested a new user account. Does that mean a new Finale account? I have turned off the computer and turned it back on. Reboote...

Can't go to next pages
The score I'm working on is stuck on the initial two pages. The progress bar at the bottom fills the whole area, rather than showing that it's just a fraction of the whole piece. Can't access the following pages. I have recently upgraded to 2014.5.
Finale 2014.5
Mac OS ElCapitan version 10.11.6

Note = note
Using Finale 2010 on a Mac: Tried to show that in the new time signature the "old" quarter note = the "new" eighth note. I used Expression tool >Tempo marks >Create tempo mark. In the box, I typed "q = e" but the Text menu did not show Maestro, so the q and the e didn't turn into notes.
