Playback stops on measure 31 of this piece I"m transcribing. I cannot figure out why. Help is much appreciated, thanks.

Change your Playback Settings to "Stop At End of Piece" and you should then not have that problem.

Thank you! Is there a way to make that the default? I seem to have to reset it each time.

When I open the Default, that is already the default for me. Maybe you created a Custom Default file or a Template that uses the actual measure number.

My default setting is play to the end of the piece. But if I add measures after creating the document, playback stops where the original document ended. I have to edit the playback setting, after which the issue does not reappear...until I add more measures! I don't recall experiencing this issue in my last version of Finale. Did you add measures at the end?
