Hi, today I needed to convert a 4/4 chart with triplets into a 12/8 chart with eighth notes. I read here that the JW Meter and Rhythm plugin would be helpful so I downloaded it and followed the instructions to install the jwmeterandrhythm64.bundle. After installing and relaunching finale, I see the JW Plug-in bundle in the correct folder but when I access plug-ins from Finale, the folder is empty.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you for any help you might be able to provide!

Are you sure you have installed the bundle, not an alias? I see a little arrow on your icon (and I'm not sure I see the complete name, possibly ending with "alias"). I don't see an arrow in my configuration.

I think michel is right. After you unzip the download, you need to find the plugin itself, and drag that into the folder.

@miker and @michel thank you both so much! It was indeed an alias. I copy/pasted the original .bundle into the plub-ins folder and it was fine!

Thanks again!
Andy
