Operating system, version of MuseScore and, if you wish, attach your files *. Mscz

There's an error in measure 42.
No, serious: you need to provide more information, which MuseScore version, what OS and also attach the score and tell us which measure you can't copy and paste.
Edit, OK you provided the version meanwhile, we still need to see the score.
Are you by chance copying triplets?

I'm basically copying the piano part from the full score into a new score so its just piano on the page. it was letting me copy the bars until bar 17 when it started to crash and wouldn't let me do it any more

meanwhile, why not use "parts"?
p.s.: Chord names seem to be fitted twice

How do you use parts ?

Indeed, there is no reason to use copy and paste in this case - the parts facility is designed to automate all this.
However, while it's much more work to do the copying and pasting manually, it *should* have worked. Unfortunately, there is a bug where MuseScore crashes if you copy and paste a region that includes chord symbols from a score for multiple instruments into a score for fewer instruments (or in your case, a part for a single instrument). This bug has already been reported, filed, and fixed for the next major release.

okay....
musescore v 1.3, revision 5702
running on windows 7 service pack 1
project: notebook for nannerl transcription into musescore.
standard piano score format, straight out of the file setup stuff, no customization.
musescore sometimes crashes on a copy, sometimes partial measure, sometimes complete or multiple measures on single staff, sometimes on multiple staff copies.
to be exact, it actually crashes on the paste, not the copy!
other than figuring out that musescore doesn't like multi-measure multi-staff copies onto a single measure/single staff (i would have thought musescore would figure that one out on its own), i have no idea of why it does that.
i've been using musescore for several years and really like it, other than some minor cosmetic issues i've learned to work around.
this copy thing really has me frustrated because it tends to trash 30 to 60 minutes of work when it happens.
when i start musescore, it does ask to recover the previously open session, but the unsaved work is lost. if the file hasn't been saved at crash, the whole new file disappears.
i've attached a copy of one of the files that has crashed and that i was eventually able to complete.

On Vista, 1.3:
I added an instrument (piano), I copied everything (piano 1) and pasted (piano 2). It works.
I copied from piano 1, treble clef;
I pasted in piano 2, I exchanged the voices;
I copied from piano 1, bass clef, on the same staff;
I exchanged the voices.
The result is visually ugly but it works.
So I've tried everything comes to mind but do not understand exactly what happens on your pc. Have you tried reinstalling?

a little more information:
yes, i did try a reinstall.
problem seems to occur only if i copy a block, and then try to paste it to a measure. this used to work in the previous version of musescore i used. unfortunately i don't know what version i had before my last update.
i will try some more experiments to see if i can figure out any pattern to the crashes.
