Scores not downloading
I have been happily using musescore for months, but all of a sudden I get
only the title when I download a score. I downloaded the newest version of Musescore, tried
different browsers and devices, but nothing is working. This is the score I was trying to download: https://musescore.com/user/84/scores/40374
Other scores don't work either.
I hope you can help.
Thanks. Kathleen

Interesting, that score doesn't work for me either, I only see the title. Also, the MXL file is invalid. I had to extract the XML and change the two occurrences of "Danny Blues " (note the extra character at the end) within the XML, removing the extra ending character.
Note, I'm using the later/est nightly build.
There's a ^@ (a nul character!) in the title and a few other places, this seems to cause the rest to not get loaded properly.
Once those are fixed (extracting the mscx from the mscz and using a plain text Editor) and attempt to load the file reports several corruptions.

Ignoring those seems to work, now over to fix those ...
The score seems to have been created with MuseScore 1.1, so quite a while ago, and these corruptions would have gone unnoticed until 2.0 added those checks

Thank you! I am using this score to copy paste into a simplified version for a student, so what you fixed works great for me. Kathleen
"Other scores don't work either."
Can you also provide a reference to the others that don't work? Possibly some bugs need to be fixed to handle them.
https://musescore.com/user/84/scores/40370 is another one that wouldn't download.

But it opens with 1.3 (?!?)
edit
I deleted the texts from the frame of the title and saved 2.0. (HTH)

Fixed some errors as earlier the file was corrupted and modified some sections. Here it is in it's original key!

Well, that is another score from the same user, @vanferry, so probably the same reason.
It too contains nul-characters and, once those are fixed, corruptions.

But the web-based system is based on 2.0 code, and it can load and show the score in the browser, so why does it work and not 2.0 on the PC?
