Hi Poornima,
I had the same problems. The quickest way to solve this without deleting and re-inserting all your characters is if you highlight the character through timeline and through design you re-select the character you used before. This way you don't have to re-position, re-size and re-time the characters.
Hope this helps.

Hi Guys,
We've had quite a few issues with copying and pasting from one SL file into another (missing images/triggers disappearing etc) the best way around this that we've found so far is to use the 'import' feature instead of copy and paste. This appears to be far more stable.
Hope this helps.

Hi Melanie,
Harri is so right on this! (Thanks, Harri!)
If you haven't already tried it, please make sure you're importing slides into new projects, rather than copying and pasting the content.
Here's how:
Importing from Another Storyline Project
Thanks!

Thanks Harri, not quite as handy as copy and pasting elements from one project slide to another (which I can do from Powerpoint to SL well enough) but a nice workaround. Perhaps a suggestion future version fix?
Hi Tim! We take those suggestions in the form of feature requests, and you can always submit those here. Thanks so much and have a great day!

hello there,
we had the same problem. I found the solution in my case: the story file name contained special characters (letters from hungarian alphabet) I've renamed the storyfiled, problem solved.
I hope it helps,
Mariann
Thanks Mariann for sharing that solution here - and just for anyone else who comes cross the thread I wanted to point to this article which references not using special characters, accented characters, or symbols in your file name or path.
