Can't find my Musescore.org scores
I recently bought a new laptop and am trying to access the music scores that are listed on my PC Musescore account. I downloaded the musescore application to my new laptop but it's only showing scores from the Musescore.com account. At least that's what i think is happening. How do I access the scores showing on my PC (Musescore.org) software?
After much frustration, I deleted the musescore application and tried downloading the software from musescore.org, but no luck...same result in that it's only showing the musescore.com scores.

The files that you created with the MuseScore software on your computer will have been saved on your computer by default, or wherever else you decided to save them, if you changed this.
If both are Windows machines, your files may already be saved to the cloud. See:

Thanks for your response. However, the problem relates not to where the files on my PC are. I have those with no problem and they work in the Musescore.ORG app. The problem is that I want to use those files that are on my PC to display in the Musescore app on my new laptop. I think maybe the Musescore.0RG application simply doesn't work on laptops. Musescore.COM works on my laptop, but it's a different software program than the Musescore app I work with on my PC. I need Musescore.ORG files that are on my PC and are working fine in musesscore.ORG to show up but that software is not the same software as the Musescore.COM app. I know it's confusing, but I have looked at another Musescore forum comment, and I think I'm right. Read those comments and you will be amazed at the Tower of Babel misunderstandings that are evident on this subject.

What do you think to be the MuseScore.org app and what the MuseScore.com app? And what do you think to be MuseScore.org files and what MuseScore.com files?
There's MuseScore files on your PC
There's the MuseScore editor on your PC
There's the MuseScore reader/player app on your mobile device, Android or iOS
There's a Webbrowser and the scores on musescore.com

There is no such thing as MuseScore.org APP

Most people would assume that a "laptop" is a PC or Mac running Windows, Linux or MacOS, and therefore could run the MuseScore application discussed here on musescore.org.
However, you say that "Musescore.COM works on my laptop" which leads me the believe that your "laptop" is actually a Android or iOS device. Like a Android tablet or a iPad. Or possible a Chromebook?
Is that correct?
Hi, I have a problem also, I'm not able to reach my "old" account with all my "old" scores . The only solution is to search after "me" on Google : my username and "Musescore" or in the first page of this forum, the window for searching sheet music, idem, enter username and my "old" list in there .................

Your account raymondwicqua was created only one week ago. So maybe you have a different MuseScore account with a different username and password? And perhaps that old account has the username Raymond Wicquart?
Warning: I have never used the facility to merge accounts, but apparently MuseScore.com does offer this as a feature:

It might resolve your problem?

Every account on the MuseScore websites has a separate email address and password. If you ask for a new password ("Forgot your password?"), then the info or link for a password reset is sent to the email address for that account. So if you have forgotten the password for that email account, then you need to go through the same process for password recovery with that email provider (not with MuseScore).

And did you transfer all your old MuseScore files from the old laptop to the new laptop? If you had not already published these scores to musescore.com, then the only place where they exist might now be on your old computer. Do you still have access to the old computer?

Or on a backup device, e.g. an external USB hard disk - if backups have been made at all :-).
You should make regular backups of the entire document folder anyway!
What is a popular saying: no backup, no pity!
