Finale is not giving me problems anymore! What did I do different? Has Make Music fixed the problem?

about the only thing I did recently was uninstall Growl. It was causing other problems and I wonder if it was interfering with Finale as well.

I have growl active on one of my three computers that was giving me authorizsation problem, deactivated on the other 2, for what it's worth.

(furiosly knowing on head)
I've not had any authroization problems in about 2 weeks or so.

Whooops, spoke too soon. Just tried starting up Fon2008 and it wants to be authorized again. On this computer growl is deactivated.

For me not deactivated: Removed. I uninstalled Growl completely. It wasn't giving me much and I was suspicious it was interfering with other programs I like.

Authorization problems have stopped. I have even tried to make them occur: Airport: top of the list, on reboot, off reboot. Authorization is sticking.

Finales asked to be authorised twice on the same day on the same computer, with two separate codes, on 17th June, shortly after I updated to 10.5.7.
Both authorisations were processed, and don't seem to affect my "count", as I also have a laptop with Finale and 10.5.7 that has been unaffected.

Since then, I've not had any authorisation issues.

I wish I could say that my authorization woes are behind me, but alas, they aren't.

MM really needs to get this fixed!

Authorization stuck for awhile and now the problem is back again. Perplexing.

I have Finale 2010, and today when I went to use it, it told me my authorization grace period expired. It registered when I first installed the software. Does anybody know what is going on? And just my luck, the office is closed. I cannot attempt to get this working tonight.

UGGGGHHHHHHH!
