How do I share IntelliJ Run/Debug configurations between projects?

I have many different versions of my app. Each one is a separate intellij project. Every time I open a new one, the list of configurations starts blank:
The annoying thing about this is I deploy to 1 vm and I have to copy and paste the debug configurations each time I want to test a different version. Intellij makes this dialog modal per Intellij Instance, so I can't copy and paste the fields between Project Instances.
I end up taking a screenshot of one configuration and copying the fields by hand into the other project. It's a pretty primitive solution. Is there a more convenient way to get a run configuration from one project to another?
I'm using Intellij 13 on Windows 7.
Can I share settings for IntelliJ Idea across different projects? may have the answer to this, but the question is different. It's about window layout. Therefore I don't consider it a duplicate.

The best way to do this is to click the "share" checkmark next to Name field when you edit/create the configuration. You can get to this Dialog with Run > Edit Configurations.
The share check-mark pulls the setting out of your workspace.xml and instead puts it in the directory .idearunConfigurations. This is designed so you can share the setting with others.
You could copy this file and put it in the same location in all your idea projects.
However, in the future, you might want to consider using source control branches for app versions rather than separate projects. IntelliJ handles these very well.

"you might want to consider using source control branches for app versions rather than separate projects" How does that work? I'm concerned that 20x source files will make Intellij run slower. Does it only consider one at a time?

@tieTYT Yes. How a source control branch works is that it edits all your local files to match the branch. Then you switch branches, it does it again. You end up having less space used in your local file system. Heres a good read for you: git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Branching-Basic-Branching-and-Merging

@tieTYT Basically, you only have one branch existing on your local machine at a time. When you want to work on another version, the source control changes it to that version for you. You wont have "20x source files" because you only have 1x at a time.

Ah, well at work we use SVN. That being said I am using the Git-SVN bridge locally. I have never switched to a different SVN branch from it though. I guess I'll give it a shot.

Run configurations are stored in .idea/workspace.xml by default. First alternative is to share this file but it is not feasible because you also share a lot of unnecessary configurations.
As already said, the first step is to check "share" option to separate run configurations from workspace.xml.
After that, I recommend adding runConfigurations to source control. But the main problem is, probably you have already marked .idea folder as ignored.
You can unignore the folder by configuring your source control system. For example, if you are using git, you can change .gitignore file as follows:
.idea/*
!/.idea/runConfigurations
don't forget adding * after .idea/
As the last step, add your run configurations to source control and enjoy your shared configurations!

You should copy the folder
~/your-old-project/.idea/runConfigurations
to
~/your-new-project/.idea/
That's the folder that contains the run configurations.

I believe you need to set them to "share" first as elaborated in the accepted answer.

This is not exactly an answer to your question but it answers a question similar to your question and one that I had, and I'm assuming others might as well.
That is, How to save unit and instrumentation test run configurations? I usually right-click on the test directory which brings up a menu with the option to Run whatever is in that directory. AndroidStudio then creates a run configuration on the fly and in the Run Configuration drop-down menu a new option will appear, "Save new configuration?" or something similar.
Clicking that option brings up the Run Configuration menu and at that point I check the Share box as many others have already mentioned. This then will prompt the version control system to ask me if I want to add this new run configuration file. If you haven't registered your version control system you can find the new files under .idea/runConfigurations.

As already said, the first step is to check "share" option to separate run configurations from workspace.xml.
After that, I recommend adding runConfigurations to source control. But the main problem is, probably you have already marked .idea folder as ignored.
You can unignore the folder by configuring your source control system. For example, if you are using git, you can change .gitignore file as follows:
.idea/*
!/.idea/runConfigurations
don't forget adding * after .idea/
As the last step, add your run configurations to source control and enjoy your shared configurations!

Run configurations are stored in .idea/workspace.xml by default. First alternative is to share this file but it is not feasible because you also share a lot of unnecessary configurations.

You should copy the folder
~/your-old-project/.idea/runConfigurations
to
~/your-new-project/.idea/
That's the folder that contains the run configurations.

I believe you need to set them to "share" first as elaborated in the accepted answer.

This is not exactly an answer to your question but it answers a question similar to your question and one that I had, and I'm assuming others might as well.
That is, How to save unit and instrumentation test run configurations? I usually right-click on the test directory which brings up a menu with the option to Run whatever is in that directory. AndroidStudio then creates a run configuration on the fly and in the Run Configuration drop-down menu a new option will appear, "Save new configuration?" or something similar.
Clicking that option brings up the Run Configuration menu and at that point I check the Share box as many others have already mentioned. This then will prompt the version control system to ask me if I want to add this new run configuration file. If you haven't registered your version control system you can find the new files under .idea/runConfigurations.
