How do I make the scores from albums play at the same time?
I'm trying to combine scores so I can listen to them at the same time. How do I do that? This is what ends up happening. (I know the music is not that good, it's not done.)

Please be patient. It took me less than five minutes to answer after I saw your scores. I'm not usually even up this late, even on weekends so you could be still waiting for the Europeans to wake up in a few hours.

It looks like you are using the album feature to join the scores. Album puts one score after another. In a case such as yours with two lines of music in each it will put all the notes on the first two lines. This is a known bug (or more properly the way it was designed) and the handbook tells you that this will happen. If you want them consecutive, you need all of the instruments from all of the scores.
You said you wanted them to play at the same time. To do this, you will need to make a file with all of the instruments and copy the instruments to the correct staves.

For the record, albums are the wrong feature for this. Albums are for combining separate scores sequentially, one after the other. Yu are trying to create one score for several instruments. You don't do that by first creating the separate parts and then combining them. You do that by first creating the full score, and then using MuseScore's built-in facilities to generate parts from that score. So next time, don't enter the parts individually - create the full score and enter the music for each instrument there.
Meanwhile, you can fix this one by creating a new full score for all instruments (File / New, Choose Instruments, select whatever you want) then open each of the parts you created one by one and copy/paste it into the appropriate staff of your full score. This won't be necessary for scores you create correctly in the first place, but it's a way of fixing this particular score.
