Hi Forum,

When I use Halve or Double note values in the Transformations Tab, I get this message
"Unable to open score file /Users/**********/Documents/Scores/***********GPS flutes Half.sib for writing"
followed by
"Halve Note Values: Unable to create new score to hold plug-in output; plug-in will terminate"
When I OK the first message.

Has anyone else seen this problem with the plug in?

Paul

This can happen if your saving folder is set to one you don't have permission to write to (like a system or temporary folder). Make sure you/the plugin are saving in a place for which you have permission.

I am having this problem too. The same message appears. How do you grant permission for Sibelius to save in a location?
