I've inserted a blank page without any staves and all. Is it possible to copy my previous page with the staves and notes and put it into the blank page? If not, how do I add the same instruments I have in the previous page and staves to the blank page?

If I understand your question, you seem to want to delete the blank pages (unless there are other things on them, titles ?).
Page Layout tool->menu->delete blank pages.
If there are titles created with the text menu, redefine the page range on which they are to display, so they appear on top of the following page, where the music is present. Then delete the (now) blank pages.

No, I don't want to delete anything. I want to add to the blank page, some staves, or if I can, copy the previous page onto the blank.

What's on the blank pages ? Nothing at all for the moment ?
When you say you want to add "some staves", are these staff systems similar to the staff configuration that follows, identical, a selection of the staves you use later on or something different ?
If you just want your pages with music to move one page earlier, use the procedure I described, moving titles to the next page and deleting the blank one.
Trying to understand...

Hi. I've actually figured it out. But yes, there wasn't anything on the blank. :wink: . I wanted to add the same staff systems I have had.

Thanks for your help. :D
