I edited this via PDF and then translated it through the software provided. It still states its corrupt and has mistakes, how exactly? It was converted with the software provided by your site and cleared the converstion process into MSCZ.

Welcome aboard...

How exactly did you edit your musical score via pdf?
Where did the original score come from, and in what format was it in originally?

If you used a scorewriter other than MuseScore to create the pdf score, try using MusicXML format (.mxl) instead of pdf, then open the .mxl file directly into MuseScore.
See:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/file-formats#share-with-other-software
for a list of the file formats that MuseScore understands.

In any event, the mscz file you attached does not look like the pdf conversion worked.

Regards.

According to:
https://musescore.com/import
"Best results are obtained with gray level images and a resolution around 300 DPI."

Your attached pdf file should be scanned at 300 DPI (dots per inch), then saved as a pdf. The Audiveris software (which is the basis of the MuseScore pdf import service) fares much better with pdf's created from images.
See:

For pdf files (like yours) which contain discrete score elements, there are other conversion tools such as:

(The trial version allows only one page at a time conversion.)

Here's how to tell the difference when viewing a pdf score in a pdf reader:

Of course, file format conversion often loses stuff in the translation, so these tools usually are not 100% accurate.
