If you haven't moved to Finale3D, and are still trying to use the old FinaleFireworks you may have noticed that finale servers are unavailable (maybe dead for good?). The old FinaleFireworks can only be used in Offline mode.
In Offline mode you can do most things, but you can't add or change music. This is a problem.
Here are a few workarounds I've found. Click on these for additional info:
Method #1 - Replace the sample music.
Method #2 - Replace some of you old music files
Method #3 - Repurpose 5 soundtracks I can provide for you.
Before doing any of these methods, it's probably best to make sure your Windows File Explorer is setup to show hidden files and folders.
View hidden files and folders in Windows 10
Open File Explorer from the taskbar.
Select View > Options > Change folder and search options.
Select the View tab and, in Advanced settings, select Show hidden files, folders, and drives and OK.
While you are enabling that that, it might be useful to enable "Show File Name Extensions" as well so you can see the .mp3 or lack of.
These methods require a Licensed working install.Â
