Repeats
Pardon me if this is a stupid question but I've read all the help topics and I can't find one that exactly suits my needs or I'm just not understanding what's being discussed. My issue is one of a repeat that doesn't repeat correctly. If you look at the jpg attachment You can see there are two endings. The first ending works correctly and goes back to the correct measure. The problem is that the 2nd ending starts with the the 2nd note in the first ending instead of the 1st note in the 2nd ending. I've also attache the mscz file if that will help. This is happening in several songs so I'm sure it's a mistake on our part but I can't figure out how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated, and the more detailed steps the better so we can recreate the fix in all of our music files.
Thanks!

Your problem is the you changed the apparent length of the first and second ending - presumably by dragging the lines to the right - but you never actually made the ending longer. See Volta or Line in the Handbook. You can't just lengthen the line visually to make an ending include multiple measures. You have to use Shift+Right to actually extend the line to include the next measure.
