Wrong time signature after importing from PDF, cannot rewrite, tuplet would cross measure
After importing guitar music from PDF the time signature is 2/2 instead of 4/4 common time. As a result there is a rest added to each measure at the end. When I try to change it I get an error message "Cannor rewrite measures. Tuplet would cross measure". Also get a "File Corrupted" message specifying problems in the score. I don't know of those errors are due to the wrong time signature as it says that it's expecting 2/2. How do I solve these errors? Thank you.

First you need to fix the corruptions, see https://musescore.org/en/node/54721
Realize, though, that the tool that converts the PDF to MusicXML for us is extremely experimental and almost always very error-prone. So I wouldn't get your hopes up too much about this being a quick way to enter sheet music - it's pretyt normal to need to spend a lot of time fixing the corruptions and other errors. In many cases it is more efficient to simply re-enter the music into MuseScore manually.
