Thanks for letting us know. No surprises, just the usual security panel issues. This bodes well.

MakeMusic never weighs in on Apple beta releases except for the occasional press release just before release. 

Actually, they were glad I reported it and had a solution, so that they can make sure to appropriately apprise folks should it happen to them and they file a help request with the Finale team. 

David, could you elaborate on exactly what you did to allow Finale to open correctly? Did you toggle the switch for full disc access in Privacy/Security? I tried the later and the warning about moving the damaged Finale file to the trash popped up, even after a restart. Thanks. 

This was quite some time ago but if you look at my update it does elaborate. It has nothing to do with full disc access. Thanks. 

When Gatekeeper is blocking access, you should see this as you open the Security and Privacy/General panel. Unlock it and you should be able to allow it to open.

I had the same problem. When I started my Finale on my Mac running current Ventura, I got this box for 27.3 with nothing in the "Release Notes" box (which I found a little strange).

When I tried to install the update, I got this:

I finally solved things by deleting my current version of Finale (27.2), downloading 27.3 from the website and reinstalling it. Seems to work OK.

There are many apps currently having this issue. They are Ventura compatible but a) the updaters don’t work properly or b) the app was installed but generates these errors after the Ventura update.

The recommendation is always a) reinstall the app after the Ventura update b) see if you still have the problem c) if so, Now send it to tech support.

Interesting. I’ve been using Ventura early on as part of the development seed process and never saw this behavior. I have not had to reinstall any apps including Finale. 

I'm having the same problem. I have Ventura running on my PowerBook. I did the newest Finale update. 27.3.3. It works, but I keep getting an update error, like the one above. That error message keeps popping up, even though I restart Finale and my computer. I am not erasing and reloading Finale. There should be an update for the update!

I am not erasing and reloading Finale.

Unless you want to fix the problem. It won’t affect your files. It is often the first thing recommended by Support as a resolution for any issue.

Neither have I. So what? Many others have had this issue. 

“Neither have I. So what? Many others have had this issue.”

yes but I guess what I don’t understand is why then this isn’t much more common. This is the first I’ve heard of this. It was not reported as best I’m aware during the development process nor does it appear to be highly prevalent. So that suggests it is more likely something less universal and more arcane. That’s why I commented. 

You can always Google “Ventura File/App is damaged and cannot be opened. You should move it to Trash“ and start reading the 2,250,000 search results.

I guess I’m blessed them. Not seeing it. So what makes my system so special? 

I had the same exact problem with the update. I also removed Finale and re-installed the full version and that seemed to work, but we will have to wait and see if this issue pops up again on the next Finale update. 

Since Apple’s Final Cut Pro X is one of the many apps where this is occurring, my money is on a Ventura update being where the problem is solved — or not. We know the workaround.

In Ventura, Finale 27 scrolls 1/2 measure ahead of the audio playback. This is in scroll view. in Page view, it is fine. Is there a fix for this?

Need more information. What are you using to generate the audio?
