Can't add scores to set

• Nov 8, 2022 - 16:50

I created a set and then go to scores. But there's no option in a scores menu to add to set. What's wrong?

This post is over two years old, and still no reply? This appears to be a bug, and is still present. I've tried this in the latest Android app v4.4.4, I just downloaded today. I'm using this on a Samsung tablet running Android 13.

I created a set, which is visible on the home screen, under "My sets".
When I open this set, I get the message "You have no scores in this set yet".
When I use the edit option on the screen, there is no "Add to set" option.

Also, on the home screen, under "Saved scores", I get the option "Upload mscz file", nothing about adding local scores to a set. Also clocking on this upload option displays random local but non-Musescore files.

Looking further, I used a file manager (FX explorer) to select a mscx file on the tablet, and then specified that it be opned using Musescore. I get the message "ERROR: The selected app does not support opening this item using a 'Content URI'. As of 2018, Google has required apps to only use Content URIs for opening files".

This is the musescore.org website, so I assume this related to the notation software, not the separate sheet music website. I just want to use the music notation program to open locally-stored mscz files, nothing more.

Correct.

Instead of opening the Set, you need to go to My Scores on musescore.com where you can open the actual score. There you will find two alternative menu paths:

  • from the option buttons under the score title: + Add to Set
  • from the "3 dots" menu beside the score title: Add to / remove from Set

Sorry, I failed to notice that you are talking about the Android app. Support questions for the mobile apps are not dealt with here on musescore.org, where we only discuss MuseScore Studio (for Windows, MacOS and Linux).
For the mobile apps, try:

"Confusing: that group is on the musescore.com website, which is oriented to the website, and not to the notation software. Or have I misunderstood?"

The musescore.com website handles commercial activities, like the MuseScore mobile player apps (Android and iOS), subscription services such as MuseScore PRO, the score-sharing website, and the ability to download some copyright scores. Money changes hands: you get what you pay for.

The musescore.org website handles the free MuseScore Studio music notation editor (for Windows, Linux and MacOS). These forums on musescore.org are run by volunteers, and there is no charge for MuseScore Studio or the forum support. People on this website are often supporters of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software).
