Go through FCP X's Titles and write down the names of the Titles and in which categories they are located.

You will save the Title with copy, copy 1, etc. If you do a "Save" versus a "Save as." in Motion, you will not get the options to customize the name of the Title or create a new Favorites category.

Select a Title that you would like to save as a Favorite, right click on it and choose "Open a copy in Motion" from the pop up menu.
