Time Signatures
I'm trying to write a piece that changes time signatures. When I right click a time signature I have placed and select "Time Signature Properites", Musescore crashes. I want the time signatures of 7/8 and 5/8,which aren't selectable from the time signature tab. Please fix this. Also, the Master Palette keeps crashing when I attempt to open it.

The time signature properties is not the proper place to create time signatures like 5/8 and 7/8. You are supposed to use the time signature master palette (press Shift+T, or View / Master Palette / Time Signatures) to create these time signatures. The values in the time signature properties dialog are actually for a "local" time signature - making one staff different than others - and indeed, there was a bug where in certain cases this could lead could crashes. So the latest builds have simply disabled that field, to avoid misleading people into thinking that is the way to get 5/8 and 7/8.
In the future, use the forum for support requests. Even if you have found what appears to a bug, it is best to discuss it in the forum first to be sure of its status. And if/when you do submit to the issue tracker, do not assign yourself or set the status to anything but "active" unless you are providing a fix :-)
As for the master palette crashing, please say what build specifically you are using (Help / About), post the score you are having problems with and precise step by step instructions to reproduce the problem. Master Palette works fine in general, so it must be something unique to your situation. If you had previously installed older builds, you should run with the "-F" option to revert to factory settings. That could well be the problem right there.
