How do I tie the last note of the bar before the first ending to the first note of the second ending? Enclosed is a screenshot of what I mean.

You can only do this (but it's still a fake up) in later versions of Sibelius.
There is a plugin called "Tie into 2nd ending" which fakes it for other versions.

I looked at all the plug-ins and didn't see it. I may have found a work around it by using the "slur". On the Mac keyboard it's the S key. You have to play with it a little, but it works. The plug-in you mentioned "Tie into 2nd ending", sounds like the right one, but don't see it in my Sibelius.

I've always used the fake method using non-magnetic slurs, as you've discovered. A bit faffy, but once you've done it a few times it's not so bad. I've not tried the plug-in.

That plugin, "Tie to second ending" works great. Thanks for telling me about it. Saves a lot of time.
