I agree that this just sounds like the layers are switched off
usually on the right hand side of the window there is a panel with some
tabs Layers Objects Nets
Select layers and make sure there is an eye symbol and not a stop symbol.
It's quite common to turn off the silkscreen and other layers as they can
cause a lot of mess on screen when you are trying to lay out a board.

* Double-click a footprint in the PCB editor and make sure 'Show' is
ticked in the relevant field checkboxes.
* Depending upon which board layers you have set to Visible, you may or
may not see certain text items. Check, for example, whether Fab and
Silkscreen layers are 'Off'.

I have drawn a schematic and corrected all the errors. When I switch to
PCB, the footprints appear but no designations and other text for them.
I cannot find any setting that would make the designations visible or
not. Please advise.
