Hi all,

 
I am a very new ACAD 2011 user and I'm having some issues. I assume it's a simple fix but, I have no clue what I'm doing.
 
I've set my one layer and been drawing the blocks on said layer. I check to make sure they're all the same by turning turning off the layer I was drawing on. Now, all my blocks say they're on this layer when I click them but, when I turn off this layer, only about half my blocks will turn off.
 
Like I said, everything is pointing to the block being on the same layer but, only some are turning off when I want them to. The rest can be turned off but, only when I redo the 'Off' function and select one of the still visible blocks.
 
I hope that makes sense. It's rather frustrating and any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like a display problem.
What are your full system specs?

After you turn off the layer, type REGEN at the command line and hit Enter. Or simply pan or roll your scroll wheel one click to zoom in or out. Do the blocks disappear?
