In Sibelius 6, VDL Template 6.0 does not appear in the create->instrument ";choose from"; dialog.
I copied the xml file to Library/.../.../Sibelius 6/Sounds.

Running OS X 10.5.8

I can access the VDL sound set ok, but can't get the template to open

thanks

You have to make sure you're writing in the VDL template file. It's the one that was also included with the soundset and ends with .sib (Sibelius file extension).

Make sure you also read about importing the vdl house style in the readme that came with the template.
