Mojave operating system on Mac
I recently switched from Cataline to Mojave operating system on my MacBook Pro, to solve some compatibility problems with my iPhone. But to my chagrin, all my recent MuseScore files will not open. Oddly, older ones do open. Anyone have this problem?

Actually, I goofed there: I recently moved from Mojave to Catalina. Since that move, all recently MuseScore files won't open at all. Any ideas?

Can you explain what goes wrong when you try? Which version of MuseScore do you have installed on the system with the problem?

I have Musescore 3.5.0 When I click on a score, a read stop sign pops up, and the first words are Cannot Read File; followed by a bunch of numbers; and finally Operation Not Permitted.

Clicking on a score where? In Finder? Are you sure it's an actual MuseScore file? Can you attach one here?
What if you open the score normally from within MuseScore instead of using Finder?

When I open my MuseScore app, I'm in the Start Center. My most recent scores appear in miniature, showing the first page and the title. I just click on the little score. For older ones, it opens as usual; but the ones created in the past few months don't have the picture of the score--they are blank (though the title appears). And if I click on them, I get the stop sign message.
I can't figure out how to attach one of the problem scores, as anything I try results in the stop sign message.

What happens if you just open them normally from File / Open? I’m wondering if maybe these scores got moved somehow. What folder are they in?

Ah, we might be getting somewhere. I tried that, and none of those scores were listed. But then I went hunting in other places, and found them listed in an odd spot--some file just a bunch of letters and numbers. When I opened them, they open.

Probably those were autosave versions recovered after a previous crash. Best to move them where they belong.

Yes, I think they were automatically saved in a weird folder. I can pull them out and put them where they should be. Thank you very much for the help.
