I'm having two problems that I cannot solve:
1. page.tpl.php does not work in my duplicated theme. I duplicated/renamed bluemarine and made the necessary corrections to the .info file but some other page is being served up. Can't figure it out and no one else seems to have the problem. It was weird. I was modifying a template based on the bluemarine theme, and then all the IDs that I was working with changed, as shown in firebug. It was like a new page template was all of a sudden being served up only I couldn't make any modifications to it. I could change the CSS but it was like the file went missing. I even deleted the page from the theme folder. You would think that would just make the screen white, but in fact the page layout remained in tact. This problem began here:
2. Also, If I duplicate a theme and rename the directory and info file, there is an "incompatible" error in the admin/theme page.
I apologize for the reposts and I would appreciate any insight that would be helpful.

Would you please stop duplicate posting your issues.
All this does is confuse everyone, and you'll end up getting the same answers over and over.
IMHO this should be deleted.

SOLUTION
As far as I can tell, this is a Dreamweaver issue. I was using "CodeView" to edit my code and this seemed to be the problem. As soon as I went to a text editor.....just editing the .info file btw....the problems are gone.
I find that very very
I find that very very strange, I use DW often, editing .info files is a non-issue. Code view is basically a text editor.

i know
me too. I thought it was weird. I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Mac G5. Might be a dreamweaver/mac related issue.
Switching to TextEdit solved the two problems I had. I guess if Drupal can't read the .info file then the page.tpl.php in the theme directory will not be read either.
Moving forward again though. Sorry about the dupes.
This is either a character
This is either a character encoding (try using UTF-8) or file type issue (use Unix, not Mac). I just had the same problem.
My solution...
Thanks adshill:
I had the same problem using DWCS5.5 (MacOSX 10.6.7), and i change in Preferences/Code Format: Line Break -> LF (Unix), also run O.K. if use CF (Windows).
