Hello! I can't seem to replicate this and I don't know whats wrong.
So I've read through the Musescore Voices Handbook and have done what was written in there, but I still cannot seem to figure this out. I don't really know what to ask for since I don't know what I don't know. I also cannot fit enough notes in the measure. Possibly I'm reading the score wrong. Any help is appreciated!

The 8th note B needs to be a 16th note (click it and press 3). This will leave a 16th rest that can be turned into a note (click it and press F). Then you can fix the rest of the 16th notes.

Thank you so much! that fixed it! I'm still learning so hopefully ill get a hang of it :)
For the future, know that you can continue the same topic/conversation (https://musescore.org/en/node/292952) by adding a new reply and adding further attachments in the replies so there's only one thread.
Based on the screenshot of your attempt, it looks like the third note of the first voice (B) needs to be a sixteenths, but your attempt shows an 8th note which omits the possibility of having all the appropriate notes embedded in the measure.
Also, and this is probably what's screwing up your attempt: there's a sixteenth sub-beam utilized there between the second and third note.
Redo the first voice and make sure the third and fourth notes are also 16th notes. The result won't look exactly like the original attachment because of the sub-beam. After doing the 16th notes, click on the 3rd note (the B) and in your Workspace open up the Beam Properties palette. Apply the 16th sub-beam (with the note selected already, just double-clicking it will do instead of dragging it). You can also set up a keyboard shortcut for this stuff.

'Twas late, but at least the image is there for a potential new-comer.
Hello, So I've gotten to another part I'm stuck on (go figure). I have no idea how to do this and I don't even know what it's called (look at pictures for more detail). Thank you!

This is called cross-staff notation (see the handbook).
Assuming that the lower staff is the F clef, make that low F note be part of the upper staff for the first note of the second beam-group in the second voice, and then let your C & A# chord be in the second 8th note slot.
After reading from the handbook, click the low second-voiced F note and then press Shift+Ctrl+Down to bring it over to the bass clef. That should work. Message here if there's an issue. If you want it to look like the original with another downward-stem upon the cross-staved note, the main option is to apply the same note directly in the bass clef in first-voice. Looks like you originally used the second-voice in the bass. Make it first-voice so you don't have two-layers of rests, and then make invisible the extra rests in the bass-staff.
