I'm not a Mac user, but you could search on Github to see if yours is a new problem not yet reported.
A quick search showed several Closed (i.e. fixed) issues:
Some shortcuts with Cmd/Opt/Ctrl don't work on macOS in 4.4 : https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/24497
Opt+Shift+... shortcuts not working on Mac : https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/25314
Mac Delete key no longer works In MSS 4.4.3 : https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/25373
A Part of Shortcuts don't work on macOS : https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/25734

I cant figure out how to install the previous version. I can download appimage files and stuff and try clicking on them, putting chmod +x ~/Applications/MuseScore-Studio-4.4.3.242971445-armv7l.AppImage
in my terminal, it says no such file. Is there a way to install it simply by just clicking a download, as it was when it was the latest version? I am not a huge techno person. If someone could post a link here to install version 4.4.3 that would be super helpful. Without keyboard commands it's very hard to use musescore.

Your caps-lock key is stuck
In reply to Your caps-lock key is stuck by Jojo-Schmitz
It isn't lit up or on (see i'm typing lowercase). , but i think you're onto something, it thinks the caps is stuck for some reason. maybe it's the underlying software or compiler or something?? what's the new Qt thingy that it is running, how many versions has that been a part of MuseScore?

Bingo! turn ON your caps lock and the problem goes away. THIS IS THE SOLUTION, I NOW HAVE MY CAPS LOT "OFF" ACCORDING TO MUSESCORE. SORRY FOR SOUNDING LIKE I'M YELLING, MY VOICE JUST NATURALLY SOUNDS THIS WAY...

ok but command delete still doesn't work, unfortnately, i tried it with caps lock on and off, with shift and off, all combinations...that's the only way i. know of to really delete a blank measure. I guess copy and paste the whole damn piece from the end backward can be a workaround, but please can someone fix this soon or help us have an easier install process of the reverted version 4.3 or so? thanks!

If you mean remove a measure from the score, you can also select it and go to Tools>Remove selected range.

my caps lock was on, I just didn't feel like re-typing all that. I tried leaving it on caps-lock as the other guy said, did nothing.

it was a mistake, no need to be snarky with me. meantime i'd love to see a solution for this problem. please.

It worked with most things, but not the space bar for start playback. I think it's a clue at least. Something in the code somewhere thinks that the caps lot is on when it's not and vice versa.
Can you please tell me how to get the older version installed again? I couldn't figure it out or find a thread on the boards that answers how to do that. Thanks.

It also doesn't work for the numbers (to change length of a note). Any help would be deeply appreciated, how to fix it or how to install earlier version of Musescore! Thanks

I think I figured out how to install the eearlier version. You to Github, under the release for 4.4.3 go to "assets", click the one that says ".dmg" and only that one. Thanks ChatGPT.

shoot, the install worked but apparently I'd skipped more than one new release. I guess I"ll go to 4.3, hopefully that's not buggy.

Nope, can't open these files now since they were made in a newer version of musescore.
This is really getting frustrating, it seems like something that could be an easy fix. I guess I"ll go make a github account and try to get the feedback across to the developers. It was fine before, I wish they hadn't changed it and kept bugging me to update, I only did it so that the popup would stop popping up and now I've started composing several pieces with the buggy version and I don't know if there's any way I can convert them to a working version.

OK, now I figure out the probem. DCouse, are you multilingual? Do you have a Viet setting on your computer, perhaps? I do, because my partner is Viet and it's a hand-me-down computer, so sometimes it accidentally gets toggled on and that apparently farts up everything. Space bar is working now to start and stop play at least, and when I put it back into Vietnamese mode it stops working again. Nailed it...I hope this time...
