Copying/pasting tracks between projects

Hi guys,
I have three BIG projects, all called "Master Idea Session" 1 2 and 3, which have perhaps 50 tracks, each representing a different song idea.
I can't seem to copy/cut/paste tracks between projects.
Is there a workaround? Could I for example merge all three project files into one big copy, and then go through it and erase what's not needed? Or is there an obvious solution or a way to copy and paste between projects? Is there any way to have more than one project open simultaneously?
What I'm aiming to do is: go through all 150 ideas, find the ones that could actually be turned into songs, and copy 15 or so of the best ones to one project file. That file will be essentially 15 different songs on 15 different tracks that my bandmate(s) can intelligibly go through to see where I'm at. (To be annoyingly clear, they would probably keep all the tracks muted and unmute one to hear a single idea).
Any ideas?
Thank you!
Alec

that would do it
now I need to change the pitch of a project without adjusting the pitch of anything I recorded.
un-tick the Follow Pitch checkBox in the track editor:

Why can't I cut and paste photos between project?

I recently made the transition from iPhoto to Aperture. One of the weird things is that I can't cut and paste photos between projects. In iPhoto this is an easy way to organize your projects if some photos are in the wrong place.
You also can't split projects, in iPhoto you can do this easily. Say, if two day's photos ending being in the same project, in iPhoto there's a button that you split them in the middle. Is there something like this in Aperture?

Copy and Paste:
In iPhoto "copy and paste" was possible, because it was not possible in the early versions, to see both projects at the same time, the one you are moving from, and the one you are moving to.
In Aperture you simply drag from the source project to the destination project to move image versions around. Also, it is easy to see more than one project in the Browser at the same time, see: Aperture 3 User Manual: Working with Two or More Browsers Open
To drag to another project, select the images in the project, then drag to the other project in the source list, for example:
To split a project, select the images you want to have in the split part, then create a new project from these images: Enable the check mark "Move selected items to new project". This will split the original project.

Copy / Paste Styles between objects?

Can you copy/paste styles between different objects in Motion 5?
I know I can save a Style as a name and then select it from the style list. It would be great to just copy a style and then select another object and paste. Can you do this?
Thanks!
Scot

Motion lets you drag and drop parameters on different things. If the action is "not allowed" you won't be able to do it. That said, if you have a rectangle located somewhere on the screen and you want to line up text over the rectangle, just drag the Position parameter of the rectangle onto the text layer in the layers list.
For "like" objects, for instance: shapes, you can drag the Outline and Fill panels (the entire panel!) onto another shape and all of the contained parameters will be copied over. So, if you have a red outlined (say 10 px wide), blue filled rectangle, and you want the same properties on a circle, just drag those panes (click on "Fill" And "Outline") onto the circle.
If all you want to do is save styles of shapes, or text, that you've created, then for shapes, on the Style inspector theres a Shape Style dropdown at the top of the parameters list. Click that and Save Shape Style. Whatever your current settings are, they can be saved and reselected from that menu. For text, at the top of the Style inspector, you'll generally see Normal (in whatever that layers font is.) Click on that bar and select Save All Basic + Style Attributes.

How can I copy and export a speaker track between project file?

Hi, I am using Premiere Elements 12. I need to copy a speaker track (nothing else) in one project file and paste it into a new track in another project file. I can mark and copy the track but then it is IMPOSSIBLE to paste it. I have no such option - very confusing...
I have tried to mark the complete track, group the parts etc but nothing works...
I can not find any answers via google or the help files...

As for PrPro, one would be working with a different setup - Sequences, within a single Project. PrE does not have Sequences, which are like mini-Projects, but within one single Project. In PrPro, you could Select your Audio Clip, or Clips, Copy, then Open a New Sequence, Target a particular Audio Track in the New Sequence, place the CTI (Current Time Indicator - or Playhead) on that New Sequence at the desired point, then just Paste.
Given your situation, in PrE, this would be my workflow, assuming that I had more than one Audio Track with Clips, but only wanted to use ONE of those in other Projects:
Open Project
Do a Save_As, naming it something like "Speaker_Audio."
Delete any other Audio, that I did not wish to export.
Publish+Share the remaining "speaker" Audio as a PCM/WAV @48KHz 16-bit (to get just the Audio, one would scroll down to near the list of the Publish+Share Options Panel, to Audio.
Import that output PCM/WAV into the next Project.
Done. The original Project would still have all Audio, untouched.
Good luck,
Hunt

Disk space error when copying/pasting clips between iMHD projects

Anyone know how to get around this problem? I have emptied all my trash, but continue to get a "not enough disk space" error message when I attempt to paste one copied iMHD clip to another iMHD project. How do I check my available disk space?
I assume that it's my startup disk because I run iMHD off of a Lacie 250GB external HD... Any thoughts?

When we Copy and Paste a clip between projects, iMovie HD duplicates the clip's entire source file to the project. That can be a very large file, so the "not enough disk space" error sometimes occurs when we don't expect it.
One way to learn which disk a project is on is to Command-click (that's the Apple key) on the project name in the titlebar at the top of the project window. The path to the project will appear.
In the Finder, select that disk and choose File > Get Info.
If there appears to be sufficient disk space, please tell us the exact error message.
Also make sure the disk is formatted correctly. iMovie requires the Mac OS Extended disk format. The disk format is reported in the same Get Info window.

Why does formatting get lost when copy and pasting slides between projects?

I'm beginning to copy and paste several slides from a project that was created in Captivate 6. I've opened the project in 7.0.1 and saved it. Next, I've copy and pasted about 20-30 slides from the old project into my new template. In the process, many slides have lost "bold" and "bullets". It's worth noting that many slides have remained correct. I also find myself having to reset slide templates and toggle off quiz buttons that I've already toggled off in old project.
This isn't part of the same problem, but related. When I copy slides from the new template I mentioned into the old one (in hopes that Advanced Actions would transfer correctly), I've noticed that none of the item names have transferred over with the copy and paste. Instead of seeing the button name I've created, it changes to "shape, text_caption, etc", the default.
I'm hoping the copy pasting between projects becomes more efficient, I'm finding myself burning unneccessary time doing more QA and microscopic investigation, although I suppose more QA isn't always a bad thing.
System is the following:
OSX 10.8.5
Captivate 7.0.1
Safari 6.0.5
Blood Type: oops, wrong forum.

When copy/pasting between different versions that has always been a problem, especially with question slides. There seem always to be changes that make such a transfer difficult. Did you try to open the CP6 project first in CP7 and see what worked? And do you use exactly the same theme (object styles, master slides, skin editor)?
Copy/paste slides, objects with advanced actions: bit same problem, works best if done between CP7 projects. The problem that each object needs to have a unique ID (name) is what causes the renaming to generic names.

Can't Copy/Paste betweet Two Projects

I want to copy/paste a clip (which includes 2 video and 2 audio tracks) between two projects. I open Project 1 and copy a clip. I open Project 2 and paste. But the paste does not work. The last copy I did in Project 2 (of a clip that was already in Project 2) is the only thing that pastes, not the clip that I'm bring over from Project 1. So then I went back to Project 1 and "exported" an xml sequence which contained the clip I wanted to paste into Project 2. The import into project 2 worked but still I could not copy/paste from the imported sequence to the target sequence in Project 2. I didn't want to drag he new sequence imported from Project 1 into the the sequence into Project 2 because I needed to have access to all of the original tracks. Why doesn't a regular Windows copy/paste not work and what can I do to get the clip from Project 1 to the targeted timeline in Project 2?

If all else fails, couldn't you always just import the original sequence you're trying to copy from? Open it and copy/paste into the sequence you really want it in?

How to copy automation data between projects?

I can copy regions from one project to another, but not automation data (e.g. volume curves). Why? How to work around this?
Cheers,
Conor

In project one, open the Automation Event List for the region in question, select all, goto project two, do the same but use paste instead.
Slightly awkward perhaps, but it works. It would have been easier if the automation would just follow the regions when you drag them between projects.
Edit: the Automation Event List is only available as a KC, Ctrl + Cmd + E as default.

2008r2 RDS Copy / Paste issue between remote app and client

I am running a 2008r2 Remote App server with Win7/XP(sp3) clients. All devices are up to date on current service packs and patches. I can open RDWeb applications and paste between other RDWeb applications, but cannot paste from RDWeb to local
applications. I can also paste between various locally running applications, but not from a local application to an RDWeb application. Each machine is maintaining it's own paste buffer, but not exchanging between the server and local machine.
I have tried using different applications on both local and remote app, with the same results (Word, excel, notepad).
I have verified the client and server settings are set to allow printer and clipboard resources, and have verified that there are no GPO's applied to either the server or client.
I have tried to include as much relative information as I can, please feel free to ask any questions and I will do my best to get back to you as quickly as possible.
Any help resolving this is most appreciated!
Sean

Hi Sean,
I wish most of the posters would be as detailed as you are. Good troubleshooting! :)
Two things to try:
1) when you connect DIRECTLY to the server via MSTSC and set a checkbox in the OPTIONS/Local Resources - to share Clipboard - do you then get the Copy paste working?
IF SO
2) Then please make sure that the Published applications - RemoteApp - have an additional line (Custom RDP settings) in properties (you miht need to recreate the RemoteApp's
redirectclipboard:i:1
then it should work.

Copy/Paste Resources in Project Professional 2010

I have a Project Server 2010 environment running SP2 and patched to April 2014. I use Project Professional 2010 patched up to same level. I am trying to copy/paste resources from one project to another, but the popup states that the resource is not found
in the enterprise resource pool, do I want to add as a local resource. The project from which I am copying the resources are in the enterprise pool. Both projects are in the server. Why can't I do this?

Tom --
The bigger question is why you are not adding resources to your enterprise projects using the Build Team dialog. That is the approach I would recommend. I believe that if you do the copy and paste of resources from one enterprise project to another,
then the project in which you paste the resources treats the pasted resources as local resources until you first save the project. Then the software should display a dialog indicating that a local resource has the same name as an enterprise resource,
and ask you if you want to replace the local resource with the enterprise resource. Is that the behavior you are seeing? Either way, I would still recommend you use the Build Team dialog rather than copying and pasting enterprise resources.
Hope this helps.

Copy paste text between documents bug

Hi
When I copy paste styled text (text or text containers) between CS6 (or CC) documents, the language for the text changes to a wrong one (from Finnish to English: British), along with the spelling of course. The style does follow correctly to the fresh new document, but ID makes an exception to the style for this pasted text (Style1+). The transferred style itself still has the correct language defined.
Doesn't happen when copy pasting within the same document.
All default languages are correct (default and within styles). Deleting preferences did nothing.
Anyone else has this? Any suggestions on how to correct this. I seem to remember there was something like this ages ago too.

Thanks Uwe
• New user: no help.
• Save as or IDML: no change, same problem.
• Snippet: language does remain correctly Finnish!
• ID5.5: no problem at all! Language remains correct.
So, this is my persistent problem:
• Any text with a style on it becomes (as a local exception to style) wrong language when copy-pasted or dragged as a whole page between docs.
• The styles them selves transfer correct. Clicking style for each paragraph again sets the correct language (but the original local adjustments are lost).
• No style has [Basic Paragraph] as a parent and [Basic Paragraph]'s and the general default language are Finnish, too. The wrong language (English: British) is not used anywhere.
• Text with no style remains correctly Finnish (target default).
• IDML: same problem. Save As: same problem.
• IDMS: language remains correct.
• Trashing preferences doesn't help.
• New user account doesn't help.
• Effected versions: ID CC (9.1 fi), ID CS6 (8.0.2 fi). CS5.5 (7.5.1 en) is not effected. System is Mac 10.8.5 (fi).
• CC has no extra plugins. CS6 and CS5.5 have Suitcase (F4) plugin only as extra.

Project server 2010 : Impossible to do a copy paste in a project plan

We have plenty of projects and sometimes it is impossible to do a copy paste of tasks, I select a task => right clic copy
But when I want to copy the task => paste is disabled in grey in the right clic menu
CTRL V does not work too
It is not linked to a specific project , some users has the problem , me too in new blank projects ie
What can I do ?

Which version of MS Project are you using? In case it is 2010, you should ensure SP2 is installed for all users. Since the issue is happening just for some users, it might be a version update issue.
If you already have SP2 or you install it and still have the problem, try creating a new user profile. There have been issues with user profile corruption with Office 2010 applications. Creating a new user profile generally resolves those.
Finally, go to File/Options/Advanced group/Edit options. Make sure the option to "Edit directly in cells" is checked. Not having it checked in Project 2010 causes all kinds of problems.
Hope this helps.

Copy/Paste difference between CS4 and CS5

Please help... I am losing my mind...
I just upgraded from CS4 to CS5 the other day and am at my wits end.
I use Adobe Illustrator for live trace and paste the paths into an embroidery software for digitizing.
In Adobe Illustrator CS4, I could copy (ctrl+c) paths in illustrator and then open the embroidery software and paste (ctrl+v) the paths.
Now that I've upgraded to Illustrator CS5, I can no longer copy/paste paths... why? The paths simply wont paste into the embroidery software any longer.
I feel like there is something very fundamental that I am missing.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Larry,
Thank you for your suggestion. If you can't tell already, I am far from an Illustrator power user...
I verified my clipboard settings looked as the attached image and it still did not seem to work. I also tried every combination of options and none of them worked either.
Work Flow: I will highlight the paths and copy them, then in the embroidery software when I hit paste, the mouse cursor turns into the processing icon for a split second like it's trying to paste, but nothing ever shows up in the embroidery software.
I reinstalled Illustrator CS4 alongside CS5 this morning, and tried the same copy/paste process with CS4 (from an illustrator file created in CS5)... works like a charm. I realize that downgrading to CS4 is not the solution. However, not being able to correctly operate the copy/paste commands is toying with my ego...

Is there a way to move (not copy/paste) files between HDs w/out command?

I use external HDs a lot, so I move files from the Mac HD to to these external HDS but I always have to delete the source file after the copy/paste process is done I know I can push the command key and move them but I use my mouse more then anything and I would like to not use the command key. I've tried to use automator but for some reason the action quits working after while so I need to redo it-which gets annoying, but so does having to constantly copy/paste everything. So is there a way to achieve move with out copy/paste and automator? If there is, could let me know what that little delightful technique is?

I use the following 3rd party cut/paste apps - CopyPaste Pro & iClip. Both you can use either the mouse or key commands.

Copy/Paste text between Photoshop & illustrator CC not keeping formatting

Hi, before when I copied text over from photoshop to illustrator it kept the text formatting. For example the font, font size, color.
Now when I use CC and copy paste text from PS to AI, all text formatting is lost and everything is placed as whatever the current AI text setting is.
HOWEVER, pasting from AI to PS WORKS as it should. All font/text formatting is maintained.
Is this a bug or is there a setting for this that I just never knew about?

Now when I use CC and copy paste text from PS to AI, all text formatting is lost
Seems to work for me on Photoshop 14.0 and Mac OS 10.8.4.
