I need to add a measure in the middle of my song. Do you know how I can do this?

Welcome to the forum!

In my own copy of Finale 2014 the steps are:

1) Selection Tool.
Double-click the measure that is going to be the first measure after the inserted.
This step will select the measure.

2) Edit menu > Insert Measure Stack…
The measure will be inserted in place of the selected measure, thus pushing the selected (and everything after it) to the right.

Another way, though less efficient, is to use the Selection tool: right-click in a nearby measure -> Copy -> right-click on target staff -> Insert -> right-click on the inserted measure -> Clear All Items. It takes only a few seconds.
