How can I transpose my music?
Interactive Downloads allow you to transpose the music. Click the orange computer monitor button under the column titled Actions. This will open the interactive feature where music can be transposed by clicking the button with sharp and flat symbols in it. From there, you can transpose the music as needed. Please note that it may take some time for the interactive feature to become available after purchase.
Please note that not all Digital Downloads have the Interactive features.

My computer is asking for a password to open the file. How do I open the file?
The digital download is a PDF that is not password protected. If you are receiving a message stating that it is password protected, then we would recommend that you view the document on a different browser rather than PDF viewer like Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you cannot access your file, please contact us at and include your order number.

My music does not appear when I click the Digital Download title.
To download your music, click on the orange button that looks like a document to begin the download. If you click on the title, you will be taken back to the item's information page where you can purchase it again if needed.

I downloaded my music, but I can't view it.
You may want to confirm you have the latest version of your browser or Adobe Reader. For the latest version of Adobe Reader, visit https://get.adobe.com/reader. If you have installed the latest version of Adobe Reader and are still unable to view the music, you may want to try viewing your music in your browser, or with a different PDF reader. If this is still not working for you, please contact us at and include your order number.

Printing Questions

Can I print the Digital Download from my iPad or mobile device?
Yes, you will be able to view and print on virtually any platform, including Windows®, Mac OS, and mobile platforms including Android™ and iOS on iPhone and iPad.

What can I do if my music gets cut off on the sides of the paper?
You may want to resize the print to a setting such as "fit to page" or "scale to page" allowing you shrink or enlarge pages when you print. You can size the pages of a PDF to fit the selected paper size in the print options of your local printer.

How many times can I print my Digital Download?
You are only licensed to print as many copies as you have purchased. You may replace a destroyed or lost copy. However, you may not distribute the Digital Download to others or print more copies than purchased for use (i.e., you may not print individual copies for friends or students). To comply with copyright regulations, you are only permitted to print the number of copies purchased. A watermark is printed at the bottom of each page to insure copyright compliance.

What is the Digital Download watermark?
At the bottom of every page a watermark is printed to comply with copyright laws and regulations. The watermark contains our company name, order number, number of copies purchased, your name, and date of purchase.
