Can't enter notes in a single measure
For some reason, in one of my compositions, there is one measure in which I cannot enter any notes or rests. I can't delete it or do anything with it. I'm wondering what the problem is and how to fix it.

Post the score, please. Also, it helps if you say which version of MuseScore, which OS etc. and what you did just prior to the problem occurring.

Unfortunately, I don't remember what I did before that happened whatsoever, but I'm using Version 1.2 Revision 5470, and I have a Windows 7 64-bit OS.
It's measure 25 on the bass clef.
(I know the end of what I have so far in my composition doesn't really make any sense - I was just trying to figure out how to solve the problem).

I'm not sure what you did, but I think you'll be OK if you delete the measure and add a blank one back in.
You should now be able to continue editing the score.
Hope that helps,

That worked easily. When I right clicked and clicked on delete, it didn't work for some reason, but control-delete worked perfectly. Thank you!

Delete removes the *contents* of a measure; ctrl-delete removes the measure itself. It's the latter you usually need once score corruption has set in, as it apparently had here.
