Invalid Scores?

• Apr 10, 2025 - 15:53

My score from only 3 weeks ago is now unopenable because its "invalid score". it has a little blue cloud symbol on it. What the heck? I made the score before spring break and went to go print it for my morning class and now I'm out music for the 5th graders. Please do not tell me I have to start all over.

Attaching an image is not particularly helpful. Instead, attach the supposed invalid score (.MSCZ file) so that we can try to help.

In addition, it's always a good idea to identify your computer's operating system and version, and MuseScore's version. You can get all three simultaneously by clicking on Help / About MuseScore from the main menu. Then click the copy button (two pieces of paper) next to the "Revision" number. Then paste that into your post.

Windows:
1. Press ⊞ Win + R
2. Copy/Paste: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\MuseScore\MuseScore4\cloud_scores
3. Press Enter
4. Look there for a file that might be called not_uploaded.mscz or something similar.
5. If you find something interesting, copy that file to another location and open from that new location

Ok I found out how to do on Mac if this applies to you. Do (Cmnd + Shift + G) and Type in the box: ~/Library/Application Support/MuseScore/MuseScore4/cloud_scores
Then look if there is something like not_uploaded.mscz
If you find something, move it to your downloads and open it from there.
Hope this helps.
