Hello Everyone,
I've recently hooked up a new numberpad to my iMac desktop specifically for Finale. I've never had this issue with previous numberpads, but every time I use the pad to change the duration for speedy entry it inputs the interval instead of changing duration.

for example, I'll hit a Bb on my keyboard then press the 4 to change the duration but instead it inputs a note a fourth above the Bb.

Please help.
Kevin

It sounds like the numpad is producing the same results as when you press the numbers on the main keyboard. I don't know whether that's an issue with the way the numpad works, or how the OS/Finale handles your numpad.
