I just installed the latest version of Finale (25.5) but no sound is coming out, and when I hit play on a score nothing happens.

I get these three errors (from top to bottom order).

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Make sure your system is 64bit. Having said that, maybe all of the components didn't install correctly. Since you just installed, you might want to try again and make sure all the audio components install as well.

My system is 64-bit. I re-installed it but still get the same errors.

Under MIDI/Audio - VST Bank & Effects I wonder if something needs configuration here:

I get that error when I've run some other ReWire enabled app. Go to MIDI/Audio / Device Setup and reset ReWire

I went to MIDI/Audio / Device Setup and reseted ReWire. The playback cursor is now moving, but still no sound...

On Mac, I select the Device Setup/Audio Setup under Midi/Audio.
And the speakers are... on...?

I find that Cubase (the DAW I'm using) resets the volume to zero whenever you reset or update any parameter. Just hit the volume up buttons. (In my case, I have aria players in most of those slots - and it plays through to Cubase.)
