This is perhaps Garritan or FInale or HP or Microsoft or me issue, not necessarily in that order. I cannot get the Garritan Keycards to work. I did the same as every time I move to a new computer. I downloaded Finale 26.2 (Windows) and copied the Garritan zip files (as the estimated download time was between 8 and 14 days); they were the same size as those at MM's site. Then (as several times before), I downloaded the Keycard picture to the desktop and moved it over to the Aria Player. (I installed Garritan and these VST libraries show up in the Score Manager; same as before.) However now I get "this keycard does not belong to any Garritan product...." every time I try to authorize. I have posted a case with MM. (I posted another with them about other problems but these problems went away on their own. Thus allowing me to consider them as a Microsoft problem.)

I just wanted to see if anyone else has had similar problems.

Had to redownload the files from MM. Then install with a couple of reboots. Things seem to work now.
