I thought it was because of other Sibelius windows being open and also having Logic Pro X open, but that isn't it. I closed the other Sibelius windows and also Logic Pro X and it's still running extremely slow. I could highlight a note on the staff that I may want to change and it could take up to 6 seconds before it gets highlighted. I've been thinking of upgrading to Sibelius 8, thinking that the newer version would run normal or faster. Anyone have any suggestions about all this? My Mac has 16 gb's of ram which is the maximum so I don't think it's the ram. Thanks.

If you are running Sibelius with the inspector open, that will slow down. Also, try restarting your machine which also sometimes clears up these issues. As you are running on a Mac, I assume you haven't done a full shut down in some time.
