MuseScore 3.6 crashes with Command Key on M1 Mac mini 11.2.1
Starting in safe mode with no other apps running MuseScore will crash whenever command key is pressed with any mscz file. Using pull-down menu doesn't cause problem.

I believe this is a conflict between Qt and a MacOS 11.2 feature. I think it was the "zoom" or "highlight cursor" feature of some sorts. Disabling that MacOS feature prevents the crash.

I also run MuseScore latest version on my 2019 MacBookPro with Intel chip, same OS but no problem. I don't think it's the OS but I think it may have something to do with the M1?

Check the linked issue below? Do you have that feature enabled and then still not experience a crash?
In that case it might be that that feature is only incompatible on M1s.

Disabling hover text seems to have fixed the problem, I wasn't aware of hover text but did observe it immediately before the crashes. Many thanks.

Just a follow up, hover text was disabled in my powerbook which had no problems.

If you don't mind the further follow-up test: Does it then also crash on your powerbook if you then do enable hover text?
To confirm the problem is with hover text in general, and not just on M1s.

Exactly! It crashed on my powerbook when I enabled hover text.

Ah, #317323: macOS 10.5 accessibility setting “Enable Hover Text” causes crash, I guess
