Time Signatures
Please view the picture I have provided. Notice the "common time" signature near the bottom.
Is there a way to associate that time signature symbol with the measure counts in this piece?

Are you wanting the measure count to start over at the cut time?
You can create a tome signature as described here https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/time-signatures#create-time-signatu….
In this case you would create a 4/2 time signature and select the "cut common" symbol in the appearance section.

Worked like a charm!!! Thank you very much.
It happens that a number of pieces in the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, which I love to transcribe to MuseScore, use the 4/2 measure as "Common" or "Cut" time. I honestly didn't expect to see that show up in a Buxtehude organ piece!
....well, not so much.
I followed your instructions, and this is what I get (see picture.)
All the "properties" show that I picked "cut time" for appearance.

Please see above post. Adding picture again just in case.

Now that you have that time signature with the correct symbol showing in the one staff use Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+ drag to drag it into the palette.
From now on you can select a measure and click on that new palette element to have the time signature applied as you want it.
