Couldn't is past tense and may not can be used in a variety of ways.
Couldn't: 'Sorry, I couldn't go to the party yesterday.'
'I couldn't complete the exam.'
May not: 'I may not be able to go to the party tomorrow.'
'I may not be able to complete the exam.'
it can also be used in the context of denying something from someone.
May not: 'No, you may not have my last chocolate'
or
'She may not allow that behaviour'
:) hope this helps!
