Basicly title.
First 2 pages are positioned correctly, but there's no space between page 2 and 3. Why?

We need a little more info.

Open the Finale document, and take a look in the sub-menu:
View menu > Page View Style > …

In the sub-menu you can choose between 8 Page View Styles.
Which style is selected?

That's just to remind you where page turns are (on right-hand pages if you imagine the music on your music stand), which can be helpful especially in the case of parts.

I notice that you have one movement which covers two pages. If possible, the movement could be placed on one spread (left-right), eliminating the need to turn the page in the middle of it. Of course, that depends on what comes before and after.
