2. “can’t have been “ hay “mustn’t have been”

There may be a regional difference here....

AmE speakers routinely use "mustn't have" as the negative of "must have" expressing a logical deduction about the past. For me (BrE speaker) the only option is "can't have":

Speaker 1: Who told you that?
Speaker 2: It must have been Fred.
Speaker 1: It can't have been. Fred's been dead for years. 


(Answer from UK)

3. “can’t have been “ hay “couldn’t have been”

The only difference is in the change of emphasis between "can't" and "couldn't". My example of the lost keys:

Husband: "My keys are missing. They were on the desk this morning."
Wife (in slightly perplexed tone): "They couldn't have been. I thought I saw you put them in your dresser drawer last night."
OR
Wife (in exasperated tone): "They can't have been. I saw you put them in your dresser drawer last night."

The only change is in the emphasis.
