To then restore your preference settings, simply copy that file into the aforementioned location (making sure that Sibelius is not running when doing so). If you have taken the time to configure your preferences just the way you like them, it might be worth making a copy of that file and placing it somewhere else (such as in your Documents folder) in case you should ever need it. The Reference also notes that “if Sibelius is used on the same computer at different times by different users, then Sibelius automatically remembers a different set of preferences for each person if they log on to the computer as a different user.” This is because the preference file is located in the user folder at Users > Library > Preferences >. In other words, Preferences are program-wide options, unlike Engraving Rules, Note Spacing Rule, Text Styles, Default Positions, or any one of many other settings that are document-specific options. They include things like display settings, keyboard shortcuts and word menus for speeding up text entry.” Why should you care if your preference file was deleted? What are the Preferences and what do they do? While far from being an exhaustive list, I’d like to share some tips about preference settings that may shed a little light on, if not improve upon, the way you use Sibelius.įirst, to quote the Sibelius Reference (from section 1.23): “ Preferences are options that affect the Sibelius program as a whole, and which remain permanently set until you change them again, rather than being saved in individual scores.
