Dan,

Yes, I was thinking along those lines. Here is text from one of my "tips and 
tricks":

Step-by-step, no frills...

Control Panel
Display
Settings Tab
Advanced Button
Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator  Tab (could be slightly different based 
on your laptop)
Graphics Properties button
Ensure that notebook is the tab
Use JAWS cursor to find the words: "Display settings" and click
List box appears saying Display settings
Use JAWS cursor to find the word rotation and the checkbox. uncheck. it
  Press Okay until you're all the way out.



Plug and Play Monitor and Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset...
General Adapter Monitor Troubleshoot Color Management
Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile
More visual display options for devices attached to
this computer, such as:
Television
Digital Display
Notebook
Monitor
are available here : Graphics Properties...
Show Tray Icon
OK Cancel Apply 199P3P

Then this one:

Fixing Screen Rotation

Ctrl+Alt+Down restores the screen to its correct position. So, if you're
only trying that keystroke, you won't see anything happening on screen. If
you try Ctrl+Alt+Up however, the screen will turn up-side-down, which will
be an obvious giveaway. You may also find that JAWS stops reading list views
correctly if the screen has been rotated.

The options to double-check are in a dialog that you reach through the
desktop. These instructions are for systems with the Intel graphics chips
usually found in Del machines.

Press Windows+M to minimize all apps and go to the desktop. Then press
Ctrl+Space until JAWS says that the item your on is not selected. Now press
the applications key to bring up the desktops context menu. You should find
an option called graphics. This will open the graphics card applet which
contains some options for disabling the rotation shortcut keys.

You may need to use the JAWS cursor to get to the relevant check boxes
within the adapters properties dialog.

There is another way to get to these options but it involves right-clicking
the desktop itself, not an icon, but the background of the desktop. As Dave
says, go to the desktop and make sure that nothing is selected. (After
pressing Windows+M, press Ctrl+Space until you hear "not selected".) Next,
press Applications and choose graphic options.

BTW, this problem seems to be most prevalent on Del machines which have the
on-board Intel graphics chip, even more so on laptops.

Benjamin,

Make sure that your graphics card isn't set to allow for screen rotation
through keystrokes. These are usually Ctrl+Alt+Arrows and will superceed all
applications.

You can usually find this option by pressing the applications key on the
desktop when nothing is selected and exploring the graphics options in the
context menu.

HTH,

Dan

Subject: [sib-access] Urgent, can't move between staves

Hi to all

Maybe I'm stupid but I just installed Sib6 new after a reset of my system.
But now I can't move between staves like before anymore.
I think I should press Ctrl+Alt and cursor up or down, right?

I have the same sibelius ersion 6.2.0 running on my 2nd computer and
everything is working fine there.
I really should use my first computer tough because its much faster and I'm
tight on shedule for my choir ...
Could I import somehow the keyboard set from my 2nd computer to make it work
again?

Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks in advance and kind regards
Ben
