user1049: I created a title sequence: title, with glow/fade in then fade out and made this into a nested sequence. I wanted to reuse this nested sequence in other parts of my project, but use different text content for the title in each of the other instances. 
So, I copied the nested sequence several times. But when I changed the title to different text, this affected all of the nested sequence copies. So it seems that the copy creates a new 'container' but references the same components (e.g. title) as the original.
So I'm looking for a way to entirely copy a nested sequence and make duplicates of all the consituent components. Is there a way?
By the way, there seem to be three different ways to make a copy: from the contextual pop-up menu for a sequence there is 'Copy', 'Duplicate' and another method (name escapes me at the moment). I've tried all three and none of them solve my problem. I'm hoping that there is a check box somewhere that I can tick/enable to say 'copy all components'.

user29602: We created an extension for easy and true duplication of sequences, and it's create unique copies of all items included the sequence with custom settings of naming.

user2994: Duplicate both your Title and your sequence, call one sequence V1...and the other V2, then take your title and call it Title V1 and title V2...then replace the title in sequence 2 with V2, then from that point on any changes made within the V1 side will not affect V2 and vise versa.

user5719: I also bumped into this issue and couldn't find a way to create a true copy of a text layer that contains effects, etc. However, there is a way around this, it still adds 1 step to the process, but it's better than most solutions I found.
So, duplicate your title, rename then go to the original title, choose it on the timeline, copy it. Then go back to the new title you just made, right click and choose " paste attributes " from the top of the list.
There, you have the same effects on a new line of text. Lemme know if you guys find an easier method.
cheers

user19874: I also have an idea, if your sequence and titles are too complicated you can save a copy of your project and then import a sequence from it to the main project.
It's best possible solution to copy title I've found with motion titles templates.
