I'm using Version 8.5.1 of Sibelius.

The bar numbers over each system in the piece I'm editing are fine until pages 4 through 17, when they disappear.

I've done this: While the entire piece is selected, go to Appearance->Engraving Rules->Bar Numbers and select "Every system" for Frequency and "All Staves" for Show on Staves, yet the bar numbers don't appear.

The piece was entered into Sibelius via PhotoScore (the separate app). That may have something to do with the problem.

Any ideas?

This usually indicates a broken or too complicated repeat structure. Check carefully for missing or incorrect repeat barlines and for signs/DS/DC that do not match. Also check that any 1st/2nd time bars are input correctly.

Thanks, Mike. That did the trick.
