Copy/Monitor Can't select family - Trying to Change Host Type

I'm trying to convert a wall based family to a face based family as outlined here:

How to change wall-based families to face-based families in Revit | Revit | Autodesk Knowledge Netwo...

And here:

(12) Revit Family Academy - Converting wall based families to faced based - YouTube

However, when I get to the copy portion of the collaborate -> copy/monitor. I can't select the family to "copy". 

I've attached the file that I'm trying to convert/link - Project A and Project B

Any ideas why I can't do this?

You need to change the family to a category that supports copy monitor such as Mechanical Equipment.

Thanks for the response!

Do you know if there is a list of categories that support copy/monitor?

 

Thanks again!
