Hi guys.

It seems that "Paste" action (Ctrl+V) doesn't work at all. I get error message says "No selected files" every time, no matter whether it was copied from MusicBee or from outside.

But I can paste the same files to some explorer folder or other location (so "copy" action works fine).

(also I can't drop files from iTunes to MusicBee - not sure it's linked, but it may to be)

os: Windows 8.1
mb: 3.1.6512


UPD: oh, wait. I can only paste tags but not files? Why?

Because MB is not Windows Explorer.
If you want to copy files, select files> right click> Send to> Folder (copy) command. Or drag and drop them while pressing Control key.
Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V are by default assigned to copy and paste tags command in Preferences> Hotkeys.

I don't want to copy files (and copying files work nice actually)
But I want to copy songs from one playlist to another, and from one library to another.

You mean from iTunes to MusicBee? Drag and drop to music library node (on the top of the left navigator) should work to add those to MB library. If adding songs to playlists doesn't work, use export playlist command from iTunes and then import it from MB using File> Playlists> Import playlist.

Yes, I mean from iTunes.
Scanned all interface one more time: I can drop files from iTunes to "Playlists" node only (even if there's only one song to drop). And this creates new playlist (but didn't adds songs to library - is it right behaviour?).
