If the issues occur on a song file you are actively working on, the song file may be slightly corrupt. If so, I may know of a solution that was originally proposed by forum member Noel96.


Save your existing song file under a new name.
Open RealBand
Import and open the new name song file in RealBand
Save the imported new name song file.
Open Band-in-a-Box
Open the new name song file formerly saved in RealBand
Does the saved RealBand file work in Band-in-a-Box?


Hi Jim,

OK! We're getting somewhere here!!!

I was preparing to do each of the items you suggested on your 7-step list and something very interesting happened before I even got to the 2nd step.

Please allow me to outline the list the steps I've taken so far...

STEP ONE A
The original folder name of the original problem song is:
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major)

The original name of the problem song(s) is:
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].MGU
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].MGX

Please notice the "other10 files" below the top two BIAB files.
See Snapshot 1
(I've itemized them here just incase their names aren't clearly visible in the snapshot)
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].mid
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].mp3
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].mxl
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].pdf
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].sib
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [3-4].wav
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [6-8].pdf
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major) [6-8].sib
20 Beethoven Allegro (G major).sib
z20 Beethoven Allegro (G major).pdf

For the sake of being as through as possible,
I clicked both of the BIAB files and both of them
produced the nuisance pop-up window.


STEP ONE B
I created a new subdirectory with a slightly different name
20 Beethoven Allegro (Jim Fogle Test-1) [3-4]
I saved the original file(s) with a slightly different names into this new subdirectory.
20 Beethoven Allegro (Jim Fogle Test-1) [3-4].MGU
20 Beethoven Allegro (Jim Fogle Test) [3-4].MGX

Please notice that non of the "other10 files" from the parent folder are present!
See snapshot 2
For the sake of being as through as possible,
I clicked both of the BIAB files and NEITHER of them
produced the nuisance pop-up window. WOW! I think that's a huge reveal!

So before I even got to step two of the 7-step test you were so kind to give me, it looks like the problem is being caused by one or more of those "other10 files" that are present in the original parent folder.

It looks to me like you and Noel96 landed a Mike Tyson-like 1-punch knockout with the first step on that list. Should we "call the fight" right here or let it move on to round/step 2 with RealBand?

Personally I think I have my answer! I'm smiling right now from ear to ear about what the first step of your list has revealed!

I'm going to post this right now so that all concerned Forum and Support Team family members can see this latest development!

I'm gonna try to find a virtual bottle of champagne to have ready to pop when I'm finally able to place the "RESOLVED" stamp on this thread, and it won't be long now!!!

I think this case is just about over!!!!
