When I attempt to constuct a label, all the instruction bubbles are blank. Some have the hidden details that appear when you place your cursor over them, but others have no hint of what going happen. Several other places, such on page 2, on the lower left portion of the page, are three mysterious check marks, without any explaination. Any thoughts?

Has this worked before?
Have you installed or updated any software recently?
If you have IE 7 or WMP 11 installed, uninstall them. they break EMC 7/7.5
