I'm trying to return to the begining of my composition but the Playback goes to a later measure. I click the 1st two areas of the Playback and it at earlier times returned to the 1st measure, it won't now. I've tried redrawing the screen and updating the Layout from the Edit Menu, when I have selected ALL from the Mass Edit Window - no go. Can anyone help me?

What do you mean when you say you click the first two areas of the Playback?

I would have you check the obvious first. Expand your Playback window by clicking the diamond at the far left of the Playback bar, and make sure that "Play From" is selected correctly. You should have it selected to play from measure 1.

What I meant was that if I hit the Vertical icon and the double triangle (reverse triangles) next to it the counter for the Playback goes back to the first measure, as it should. BUT when I then hit PLAY it advances to some later measure in the song instead of the beginning. This is very frustrating when all you want to do is play the beginning

Or something simpler still...

Once upon a time in the land of Convenience, the play arrow was green after stop, but blue after pause. Now, if one hits pause inadvertantly instead of stop, and then hits play, the music resumes from the pause rather than starting again.
