Time signature is messed up
Changed the time signature to 4/4 after a 12/8 section, and the following happened: All measures are fine, except for the first measure. The top staff has 5 beats, and the bottom staff has 4, in this measure. When I right click "staff and measure properties" for the staves with 5 beats, it says the actual and nominal beats are 4. Nothing funny there to explain why there are 5 beats. Same with time signature properties for those lines.
Help?

You need to attach your score, preferably in the state before you added the 4/4 and tell us which measure you added the 4/4 to. If you only have it with the 4/4 already entered, then attach that.

It's measure 77.
A related issue (now that I've closed and re-opened it) is that it now says the file is corrupted when you try to open it, because one measure is in "13/8." (Probably m. 77!) I can't find any clear indication once the file is open that it is incorrect, though. The top staves are still showing 5 beats per measure while the bottom are showing 4.

Indeed in measure 77, the top stave of either instrument has way to many notes/rests for a 4/4 measure

I inserted a measure before 78, reentered everything into the new measure then selected measure 77 and press ctrl+delete (this may be slightly differnt on linux) to delete it.

The score said it was saved on Linux, I use Windows.
