I've had trouble with this, and still do and was wondering if anyone could help me. ive already asked a few people and they're not sure, either. I'd like to see if it can be fixed. :)

So the basic problem is, i cant Authorize Finale 2009. it says to right click the icon and click "Run as Administrator." so, i did, but nothing happens, i'll re-open Finale and it will say the same thing....im not sure what to do.... whether its something wrong with my computer, the program......hmm.....

and this is a downloaded version of Finale.....via Torrent..... >_< (i have tried another source)

any ideas? thanks ^_^

Are you running Vista?

And it's very possible that the upload is just bad.

No, there's a process you have to do. (Note, I forget some of the terminology of the buttons you have to click, but follow this general process)

1. Disconnect from internet
2. Say you'll register by whatever the non-internet option is
3. You'll be given a user code. Plug that into the keygen. Write down the serial code the keygen gives you.
4. Exit, and open Finale again. This time, authorize with the serial code the keygen gave you.

That should work...again, I might have mixed up some of the names of codes and stuff, but follow that general guideline.

ya, i have the instructions....but its jsut, it wont let me Authorize it, cuz its not "Running as administrator"...... :/

are you sure that your account have the admin. privileges?
To check it go:
"Control panel", then something like "account users". Then check if you have all the privileges...

Oh, that's what I do for XP.

Why not trying turning off your user account saftey thing? I don't know what the accual term is, but that might help.

I was wondering, can you download Finale 2009 somewhere on the net without downloading Finale Demo 2009. I got the keygen for it and I'd like to use it. Only prob: I don't want running a torrent. It made my computer crash twice. Any site I can download it?
