MS 2.0.3 will not start on OS X 10.11.6
I haven't started MuseScore (2.0.2) for a while but when I tried, it crashed.
I downloaded 2.0.3 and tried again - crash.
Checked the forums.
Tried starting from Terminal with "-F" flag - crash.
Tried uninstalling with CleanMyMac 3 and reinstalled - crash.
What am I doing wrong? What else can I try?
Thanks.

I guess check the Handbook section on known incompatibilies to see if anything there rings a bell.

Checked the handbook. Validated all my fonts. All OK. Still crashing on start.
Are you capable of capturing the crash log? If so, attach it as a txt file or use http://pastebin.com to provide it to us. Thanks!

@Jonathan Clark2 :
Thank you for the crash log.
It is a known incompatibility between the old Facebook Photo Uploader plugin in Mac OS X >= 10.10.
See here for links on how to unistall this old plugin (which actually no more works and it is also no more supported):

Should the "Known incompatibilities" page be updated?
In reply to Should the "Known by Marc Sabatella
Well, it is actually an incompatibility between the Facebook Photo Uploader plugin and the operating system itself.
But maybe a note can be added to the "known incompatibilities" page even if it is not strictly an incompatibility between MuseScore and another software, since I don't think it is possible to blacklist that plugin for the Qt widget used in MuseScore for rendering web pages.

It should be possible to blacklist a plugin in qt5-webkit, but ... there is a bug since 2014 which remains unresolved :/ > https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-36349
