Re: SMD Components No Copper
It looks like SMD pads were tented. You can right click on a SMD pad in PCB Layout, open "Mask/Paste Settings" from submenu and verify the settings. Specifically, check top solder mask and bottom solder mask. If they were tented, change to "Common State" (that is open by default)...

Thank you for the report, we have added the issue to bug tracker and will investigate it. It looks like a custom problem. DRC just shows the warning but it can't stop PCB order if you agree to send the order with DRC issues (press No on the corresponding pop up window). It couldn't be browser issue ...

Re: Library recovery from schematics
Similar to saving components from schematic to component library, you can save patterns from PCB Layout to pattern library. Just right click on a pattern in PCB Layout, select "Save to Library -> Save to File" from submenu, enter library name, hint and group and save the file.

Re: Voltage offset short circuit / Vref
1. Please open "Verification -> Electrical Rule Setup". There is Power Pins for SC" (short circuit) in the bottom right corner. By default, they are V* and GND*. So any pin which name starts from V is considered as power pin. But you can edit the field and change V* to something more ...

Re: cant seem to route into connectors
Are there route keepout or board cutout around the connector? How about design rules and net classes? I ask them because interactive router checks rules on fly and doesn't allow to violate them. You can press "I" hot key during manual routing to disable interactive mode and see if there is...

Re: How to rotate component leaving annotations/text unrotated
To change global settings of part markings, please open "View -> Part Markings" from the main menu. There is align option for each parameter. You can customize them. For example, change "Auto" to "Top" for RefDes and "Auto" to "Bottom" for Value.
