I have Encore version 5.0.7 in my Mac and I upgraded my Mac several months ago to 10.15.7 Catalina and now my files/Encore program are inacesssable; it tells me that the Mac program my computer is using is 64-bit and the Encore program is 32-bit. I have been using Encore since the mid-’90’s and upgraded when needed. I currently have at least 20+ compositions/arrangements (not to mention all the individual parts that were extracted and made separate for printing) that I cannot access at all and I am wondering: does anyone have any idea how I can get the old 32-bit to work on my Mac with Catalina?
I have been considering Notion 6 software to use to replace the Encore but it seems a bit complicated (and rather time consuming to learn how to use) for such great results, the likes of which are like what my Encore program was giving me.
I do have an earlier model Mac computer in my storage room from 10 years ago with the Encore software program on it (maybe not the version I was using on my current Mac), I think, and could probably put the mentioned 20+ pieces/parts on a flash drive and transfer them and go from there, but my printer, I don’t think, can read the exported files that I’d be sending from the old Mac.
I’m starting to feel discouraged about version 6 arriving and from what I am reading others are writing. I hate loosing so much music. Please feel free to drop me a line if you have any ideas on how I can get my computer to accept and read the 32-bit selections I have, even if I just print them out I’ll be ahead of the game (and record them as they play also) or, if you think going back to the old Mac I have, how can I get my printer to accept the material to be printed from the old Mac.
