Finale 27 and High Sierra

Hi people out there!

For different reasons I cannot upgrade my OS beyond MacOS High Sierra - but have to upgrade my old Finale 2012 to something that will run on it.
Reportedly Finale v27 cannot run on High Sierra - but I installed the demo and it seems to run perfectly - tested all the basic features, writing, saving, playback...
- Anyone having experience with High Sierra and v27? Can't find anything on the net.

Alternatively I will have to get v26 somehow...justed wanted to check if it would run.

Thank you in advance:)
Adam

FYI, Finale 26.3.1 is compatible with High Sierra, according to Makemusic :

You won’t be able to get 26 from MakeMusic. I would try eBay or some of the 3rd party sellers.

Ok, thanks. I was most interested to hear, if anyone had experience with 27 on High Sierra...and where the problems might be.
Seems to work perfect here - better than my old 2012 on El Capitan...

I'm a bit late to the party, but I tried the Version 27.2.0.142 demo with my MacBook Pro running High Sierra and it worked perfectly, so I went ahead and bought it. It still works fine. I haven't tried to use Aria Player, however. But now, I'm getting prompts to upgrade to 27.3 for Mac, and I haven't, because I'm afraid to get shut out! I would like to get more info on this from those in the know. Thanks!
