I just installed the Garritan Personal Orchestra and updated to V.26.3 and now I don't hear any playback. Sorry, I used to use Finale all the time but haven't in years. I'm sure I messed up a setting or two. Can someone please lead me through troubleshooting this so I can hear playback? Thanks!

Hi, yes, followed it to the letter. In Finale, Garritan is in there under MIDI/Audio...... under VST banks and effects, I see Aria......if I click on Aria, all the places say "empty," though.....is that normal? I have "play Finale through VST".........must be missing something......

Ok, this is now RESOLVED. I called their tech support and got it straightened out. What I had done is install "Garritan Personal Orchestra" instead of "Garritan Instruments for Finale." Once we installed it properly, it worked fine. Thanks for the suggestions for the other sounds....I will look into it!
