These problems are very strange. Please, describe each one of them in detail:
-i can't copy forest objects.
Are you creating copies or instances ? What is the result after copying them ?
-i can't make existing forest system to populate new surfaces although i have the update feature checked
Please, send us a test scene to check it.
-i can't create new forest objects in my scene.
What fails exactly ? Please, detail the problem.

im creating instances the result is that i can't see the forest objects, they just disappear. or i can see the point clouds of some of them but on render time there is nothing there.
when i try to create the forest objects it just appears the Forest icon but none plant get's distributed tried without proxys and only the default billboards and isn't working too .nothing else happens.
tried to save separately the surfaces for the forest objects distribution and try on a new scene and it doesn't seem to work either.
i created the first building and everything is OK but the other 3 are not working.
i had send you an email with a wetransfer link to download the scene.
thanks!

I suggest you create copies of Forest, not instances. Forest scatters the items using other objects as reference (as areas), so two instanced objects will generate identical items (stacking them) although you change the Forest's position/pivot.

I see some of your surfaces (as "superficie congandejas habitaciones") have normals flipped. Applying a "Normal->Flip Normals" modifier should solve the problem.

Probably the same problem described above.

Carlos you saved my life! thanks a lot!!!
the problem was that when i was copying the buildings and the when mirroring them, my normals went crazy, so just copy, mirror, flip normals and my beloved forest appeared easily!
thank yo so much bro!
