Not sure when this started, and it doesn't really affect my workflow, but sometimes the cursor appears as text, with the name of one of my mounted drives...??? see image below.... have any of you seen this?

I think it’s been blamed on a Mac issue. I get the same type of bleed. But nobody has a fix, so far.

The picture is too small for my eyes.

According to MakeMusic, Finale 27 and MacOs14 Sonoma are not compatible. They have found a few problems, and yours may have to be added to the list...

Thanks for the reply… It’s actually been doing it since before upgraded to Sonoma

Since posting this I’ve been paying a bit more attention… The text that appears actually seems to be random items from the Finder… The name of a file, folder, Drive, etc. Weird!

I'm seeing in Ventura. And, like SMS, random items.
