I need help with Kontact Player or setting up better audio

Does anyone who's in Finale have the Kontact player set up?  I could use some help with that...

Who's moved on to Finale 2009?

I'm still working in Finale 2007b and there are glitches that I've learned to live with.  For example, when copying a chord change, it may or may not generate guitar fretboards within the chord tool for any given chord type.  When copying the chord change, more of the fretboards multiply/generate within that particular chord type (for example a Dom7+5.)  You can have literally dozens of fretboards multiplying themselves within one chord type, and when it has too many of them in there, and you attempt to paste that chord one more time, the file may (probably will) crash and become corrupt.  Due to this glitch I've lost HOURS of work.  I called Finale and it was a 'known issue' in '07, and they say it's been fixed in '08.  

What is so different about 2008 and/or 2009?
