Copyright
I have managed to enter the copyright symbol at the heading but ideally I would like to add this symbol next to my name which appears at the bottom of each page. Is there a way of doing this? Terry

The © symbol is R-CTL+SHIFT+C on the Canadian Multilingual Standard keyboard, if you have that loaded into your computer. If not, you can copy and paste it from the Character Map (Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Character Map).
ETA: Hmmm. It occurs to me I may have answered a question you didn't ask. If you meant to ask how to enter the symbol into the copyright footer that the new-score wizard creates automatically, you can modify that line by clicking FILE>Info... on the main menu. Alternatively, you can open the header and footer dialogue panel by clicking on STYLE>General>Header Footer Numbers, remove the $:copyright: tag that appears in the footer box by default, and insert whatever text you like in its place.

;o) Yep, that works, too.
There's also the special characters palette in MuseScore. That's a bit confusing to bring up, because the default shortcut is F2 and unless you're in edit mode in a text, that shortcut transposes the score instead!

I have tried all recommended above . I tried copying symbol from your email and opening the footer box . I can change text but the paste option is not available. I also tried to take the symbol from the special character box but am unable to have the two boxes open at the same time to enter the symbol!

You are correct; the Paste item in the right-click menu is greyed-out...but if you use the keyboard shortcut for Paste (CTL+V) it will work fine.
Don't ask me why it's that way; I don't know the answer. :(

The paste *menu* command is specifically for pasting into the *score*, not for working with dialog boxes. Those work using standard shortcuts only, just as with most other programs.

Thank you ! I have used a mixture of suggestions to solve my problem, I deleted the footer text and found a site on google which had a copyright symbol to copy and paste and went back into the footer and bingo! it copied on a right click, I have saved the site on my favourites for future scores, Terry
