I've created multiple slides on the slide master by mistake. I want to
convert or copy or change or SOMETHING to make those slides just
regular PPT slides so they can all be different. Is there some easy
way to convert them back to normal slides? I tried to copy (select
all) and paste the contents on a new blank slide, but, of course, the
new slide is NOT blank!
 
To adjust your slide design go to Format > Slide Design. Apply/reapply the
appropriate master from your choices in the Task Pane

To adjust your slide layout (get a blank slide), go to Format > Slide
Layout. You can create a blank slide by select that option in the Task Pan on
the right.

Does that help?
 
I don't understand what you mean by "of course, the new slide is NOT blank."
The only way to convert your master slides to regular slides is to do what
you mentioned -- select all, copy, and paste on a regular blank slide in
normal view. So can you clarify?

If you need just the elements on the master, but not the placeholders,
select all on the master, then press Shift while you click the title, text,
and any other placeholders (footer, date, page number) to deselect them.
Then copy and paste onto a slide in normal view.

Or perhaps you need to go to Format|Slide Layout and select an appropriate
layout for the slide -- probably title, title and text, or blank.
