Re: Cannot locate the "Cres./Dim. Playback" Plugin
Which version of Sib are you on? The method changes if you are on or before Sib 6 or on sib 7 and later.

Re: Playback problems in v7.13
Let me correct a misapprehension. This forum is NOT the official Sibelius one. That lies at : https://www.sibelius.com/cgi-bin/helpcenter/chat/chat.pl?com=show&groupid=3b . No sib staffers or other representatives come here. Just me and a few other die hards. This forum is incredibly old (by modern ...

Re: Sibelius 8.6 on M1 macbook
Andrew,
No version of Sib before 2020.12 will work properly on Mac OS Big Sur. Don't blame Sibelius, blame Apple.

Re: Which version do I buy?
If you are using it for school, you really do need sib ultimate. When you buy the full software, you also get a year of updates and free help. DO NOT LET THIS LAPSE. INCLUDE IT IN YOUR BUDGET. That way it will only cost you £80/£90 a year to keep as up-to-date as possible. I don't kn ow if this is s...

Re: Play back sounds
It would be very useful to have more info, and possibly a score to view/play with.
What machine is this (apple/windows)
What version of the OS?
What version and tier of Sibelius?
What changed between it working and not working?
A screenshot of the Audio engine options and playback devices dialogs.

Re: "Make into page" sometimes doesn't work
If you email me the score I will take a look at it to see what can be seen.

Re: Sibelius Sounds 7 stops working in Ultimate 2020.12
It would help if we knew your OS and version. Also, do you have the absolute, latest version of the sounds with the bass clarinet patch?

Re: Instrument changes disappear
I'd have to see an actual score that shows the problems to diagnose them, but the text off the page syndrome is usually due to inadvertant dragging or dragging while in panorama mode. Just somethign to watch out for.

Re: Need help with paging
If you must have x bars on a page, try making the staff size smaller - use the inspector, in the bars panel.

Re: Export from Photoscore/Import into Sibelius causes key signature to change
So much in sib depends on your choice of transposition interval and on the settings for the individual instruments. Can you send me your score and the .opt file from PS and Sib so I can have a close look at what is happening? This long-distance relationship is making it very hard for me to detect yo...

Re: Adding an optional way of playing a measure, like a footnote
The type where it's above or below the actual bar is called an ossia. If you are using the full version of Sibelius ossias are available on the Home tab of the ribbon. Footnotes are a little more involved. See the attached link to the official Sibelius forum. https://www.sibelius.com/cgi-bin/helpcen...

Re: Export from Photoscore/Import into Sibelius causes key signature to change
Photoscore does not eliminate your role as proofreader! :D PS can put incorrect key and time changes into a scanned score (even from a pdf) and you should very carefully check the start of every system for spurious key changes. I get caught out by this quite a lot. The change between 2 sharps/flats ...

If there are multirests nearby, make sure the text is attached before the first bar of the multirest,
