Dear members,
How do I disable the music (Finlandia) which plays every time I open the software? I've used Sibelius since about the year 2001. At one time I received daily tips each time I opened the software; this was helpful. Along the way, one tip did mention how to disable the opening fanfare, and I did. However, that was two computers and several upgraded versions ago and I have forgotten. Can't find this in users guide or help index. I am super tired of hearing it. Thanks all!

Hi. In Sibelius 7, go to File > Preferences, select Other > When Sibelius Starts > Untick the Play Music box.

Thanks so much!! While it occurs to me, do you know how to re-enable the daily tips which used to display on opening. That I didn't mind. With appreciation -

Afraid I don't know, it looks like Tip of the Day may have been discontinued from Sibelius 7. I still have it on my Sibelius 6 installation however, only just noticed it on the Start up screen.
