William,

To help me appreciate what's happening, I need to know the answers to a few questions.

Which track are you entering the notation onto?

Is it a Realtrack (i.e. track name is in green) or is it a midi track (track name is in yellow)?

When you say "preview it" could you please explain how you do this, what icon/button you press to do the "preview"?

Also, when you say "replay it", can you please tell me which icon/button you press to "replay it"?

"Lastly, are you activating the correct freeze button? Each track has its own freeze. I've written a number melodies, basses, etc, over the years and 'freeze' always works for me. As a check, once a track is frozen, there will be an asterisk beside the name.

I'm not sure if you've done this but after you enter notes manually, immediately save a copy of your file and then save a second copy with a new name. Having a backup file always means you can get back to what you had if things don't go according to plan.

If you could make a copy of your file (after notation has been added) available here on the forum by using Dropbox (or equivalent) it would be very useful. It's quite challenging to solve problems without seeing the song file involved.

Regards,
Noel
