Are you using relative mode?  I only use absolute, myself; every pitch
specifies its octave and they don't change depending on the cutting and
pasting of other notes.  I find that the annoyance of having to debug this
kind of thing in relative mode outweighs the convenience of leaving out
octaves on some pitches.
