Transposing
I am trying to transpose a score one octave below, but when I transpose the note sounds the same for example
C3 sound as C4 when located in C3. Can anyone help me?
I select a note, go in score property then transposing
Thanks

correcting**** C3 sound as C4 when located in C3!!!
If I understand correctly what you are trying to do, this is a two-step process, since you are starting with an existing score.
1. First, transpose the score one octave down. From the Tools menu, choose "Transpose...". In the window that pops up, choose "By Interval", "Down", and "Perfect Octave". Click "OK".
2. Now, since you want to see a C as a C3 but hear it as a C4, change the staff transposition. Right-click on the staff, choose "Staff/Part Properties", Transposition: 1 Octave(s) Down.

I forgot to say, i want to change the instrument too, piano to cello for example.
I want to hear a C4 as a C3 is what i said. But it keeps sounding C4 when i transpose, got it?

Oops, I said it backwards. Probably because that's how you said it. Twice. What I suggested would make a C4 sound as a C3. And now it sounds like you're saying that's what you want after all.

To change the instrument, right-click on the staff and choose "Staff/Part Properties". Press the "Change Instrument..." button in the middle of the window. Click on "Strings - Bowed", and then "Violoncello".
