Changing instruments
I have arranged a piano piece for four cellos but could only find staves for SATB; thus, the program 'thinks' that voices ought to be singing the parts.
How can I change the instrumentation to four cellos?

The best way is that when you start your score you chose the "template" that says "Choose Instruments" and add 4 cellos from the start.
If you have too much work done for this, then you can right click each staff, choose Staff properties and then click Change Instruments.

This was my question too. AWSOME!
I had used Voice for my singing line, but the voice models are too slow on attack and couldn't articulate 16th notes. Now I changed the instrument to Trumpet, and it works much better.
But there's a section in the middle of the song that is slow, and I could switch to using voice there, instead of trumpet. Is there a way to switch instruments at some point along the score, but staying in the same staff?

Yes, see the Handbook under "Mid-staff instrument changes".
