Every time I load a song, it does not have the key and cappo that I saved it with. Is this normal, or have I changed a setting somewhere?

Welcome to the forums.

Have you set the key signature of the song correctly?

There is a transpose option in the print options menu that will show the "capo'd" version of the song without altering the play key, but I think it is a global setting

Welcome to the forum. Could you give us more detail, please? Windows or Mac? Which version and build (go to Help, About). I ask because we want to rule out a possible bug.

And the questions above.

When you do File, Save you can specify to Save with Patches and Harmony. Try that.

I have only been using it for a week.

I have done all the above, setting key sig. setting cappo.

windows 10
BIAB 2021, 818, 64 bit.

I have 4 numbers lined up for a zoom meeting, as I closed each then opened each one, I had to reset the cappo position & in 2 cases set the key as well.
As you gather, this takes time, while people are sitting there waiting for me to start playing.
I tried saving as mp3, but not being able to see the screen with chord changes, makes it difficult.

The latest available to you is 822.

Don’t go by what the program says. Go instead to the updates on the website.
