Hello!

I am running Sibelius 7.5.1 on a 2019 MacBook Pro OS 10.15.2 (Catalina). Any time I open Sibelius and try to work on a score, I am able to use all trackpad functions, but as soon as I use keyboard shortcuts, Sibelius quits IMMEDIATELY and sends a crash report to apple. Does anyone have any advice on how to solve this? The crash report is pasted below.

Thanks!
