Craig,

In the Special Tools, choose the Tie Tool (it's the second one from the bottom on the left on my default palette.) Make sure you are in the same layer as the note. Click the note in the second ending. Three handles should appear. Click any one of the handles and hit command-F (on a Mac. Maybe control-F on a PC). It will flip. You can also drag handles around, so as a last resort, you can take a FORWARD tie and drag it backwards.

If this doesn't work, perhaps there is corruption in your file. Sometimes strange things stop working for only one measure. Clearing and re-entering all the contents sometimes works, then I try deleting the measure stack in question and inserting a new one, but sometimes I have to copy the entire file contents to a new document to clean it out.
