I have melodyne tracks and I would prefer not to render them.

Using the new 'Ripple Editing' feature is probably the easiest way to do this.
Place the now time line at the point you wish to move from, select the ripple editing feature, then add the number of measures you want to move or select all tracks from that point and drag them further down the timeline.
Don't forget to deselect ripple editing after you've finished as it can edit more than you want when selective editing.
Hope this helps.

Set snap to WHOLE
CTRL A   This in threory selects everything. Always works for me, others have complained it didn't. 
Grab any track and drag the whole works back as many measures as you want. Just did this 10 minutes ago to move the count in to measure 2.

Adding a few measures in the beginning should also work.

SONAR PE 8.5.3, Asus P5B, 2,4 Ghz Dual Core, 4 Gb RAM, GF 7300, EMU 1820, Bluetube Pre  -  Kontakt4, Ozone, Addictive Drums, PSP Mixpack2, Melda Creative Pack, Melodyne Plugin etc.
The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

I would also use the CNTL+A to select everything and drag it over a measure
Unless I had Markers. Then I would use Ripple edit (that moves Markers as well).

If you navigate to the start of your project (pressing W is the easiest way to do this), you can then press Ctrl + A and from the Project menu click 'Insert Time/measures'. This will give you a dialog where you can optionally move markers, time signatures, tempo changes and can specify the number of measures you wish to insert.
 
Having said that though, I'm sure the Ripple Edit method as others have said would achieve the same.

I have frozen tracks from various VST synths, unfrozen melodyne tracks and a loop track with strange properties. 
 
My loop track no matter what approach I do when i drag it parts of it "disappear". My melodyne tracks it truncates the blobs.

Bounce the Melodyne clips.

Once again I learn a new trick from the forum. This is obviously the best way to do this and I will adopt this method. 
I forgot about markers but I normally will add the extra count in measure early on and only need this for downloaded files.  My own creations never start at zero.

I bounced my melodyne tracks, bounced the loop and made sure my volume envelopes were selected and ripple worked really nice.
 
What an odd name, (ripple) for that process.
 
Not sure if I unfroze one of my synths what would happen. :)
 
Thanks for the awesome help all!!!
