Hi Sandra I understand now. When Sibelius 7 starts, it says blank, but infact there is no template loaded. But this is already a good thing, because it means, that you have turned off the quick start dialog, which isn't accessible enough. So once Sibelius is started, press the letter "I". This is the shortcut to insert an instrument. Once your instrument inserted, you will have a couple of measures filled with whole rests, which you then overwrite while adding your notes. It looks the same as in all other Sibelius versions. I hope, this helps, otherwise come back.

Thank you very much Claudio. Unfortunately, it didn't work. It's the strangest thing but I can make it read note durations and pitches within an example score but when Sibelius 7 starts up with a blank score, nothing actually happens and I can't access this blessed ribbon to add instruments or do anything whatsoever! All the best, Sandra. If you wish to unsubscribe, send a blank message with the single word, unsubscribe - in the Subject line to: sib-access-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
