If you really create new frames (and not launch a new emacs instance), then I serriously doubt that you cannot see all the buffers from all the frames. Use C-x C-b in all your frame and check that you get the same buffer list from every frame. To create a new frame, you can use C-x 5 2 or M-x make-frame RET -- __Pascal Bourguignon__
