I hope this is the correct forum for this. I just got 2012 and during installation this error message came up;
"Mappedfile Error 1006" which is this according to MS "ERR_FORMAT 1006 An input data format error occurred."
but doesn't go on to say how to fix it. Is there a way to get the fonts to install? I already downloaded the Makemusic font exe it gave the same error message.Thank You

Do you, or have you had another version of Finale installed? Is it refusing to install ANY fonts or just a specific one? My first thought is that the font in question is already there and that the developers forgot to throw in a try/catch statement in case it was already present.
Is Finale still installing despite the error, or does it halt the installation?

No other version ever.Finale installs fine even loads up but the music notation fonts are what look to be the "wingding" fonts. I looked in the font folder of my W7 OS and the fonts used were those.I tried to reinstall same error message, tried the makemusic font installer same error message.I can start finale, create document but instaed of, say a G clef, i get a strange symbol (idk what the symbol actually is), i see a mailbox,a hand with a pencil in it, a weird squiggly thing etc.Do I have to install Finale in compatibility mode?I didn't try that since it is a newer program and should install fine.

no
No. Whenever I get a problem with software I try the forums first, usually, like with my Pro Tools, the problem can be answered there.Where do I place this problem?
