Can I copy a card from one stack to another?

Folks, I inadvertently deleted a group from all my cards and then did new work I don’t want to lose on a card. Can I copy this card to another stack with a different name, then copy objects from that stack back to my original stack? This seems very iffy. Possible? Bill William A. Prothero

AW: which port is beeing used with get URL?

There are different firewalls used at different customers. Sometimes, even the admin of the customer has no knowledge or access to the firewalls. E.g. a lot of public schools are routed thru the federal states network of their state and the admin of the school doesn't have access to that network.

Hi Timo, a firewall setting also might cause this. Many security tools have a app control included which controls the network access of applications. It could be that the LC app is not allowed to do any networking. Can you check with the customer which Antivirus/Firewall software is used?
