[sib-access] Re: No Sib 5 With Windows 7???

Hi Allison,

Dan will have to answer for Sibelius-Access and Windows 7, but as far
as Sibelius itself goes, here's the link and comment from them about
Version 5.  I note that they make no mention of versions of Windows 7,
which I feel is rather naughty.

http://www.sibelius.com/helpcenter/win7.html 

"Previous versions of Sibelius on Windows 7

"Versions of Sibelius prior to Sibelius 6 will not be supported on
either the 32-bit or 64-bit editions of Windows 7.

"In our limited testing, we have found that Sibelius 5 and earlier can
be installed and run on Windows 7 without any major problems. Please
note, however, that Sibelius technical support staff cannot offer any
assistance with issues relating to compatibility of Sibelius 5 or
earlier with Windows 7.

George.

Hello, George,

That's interesting to know. I was under the impression that Sib 5
didn't 
work with Windows 7 at all. I assume then that sib access will also
work 
with 7 pro then?

Kind Regards,

Alison Trelfa.
