Unknown pin error

Question

When I try to bring may schematic design into the PCB I find that a newly created capacitor gives an error. "unknown pin" well the pins are 1 and 2 in both the symbol and footprint and I have use both before so as always I am baffled.

I would attach the files but Element 14's own software file formats are not accepted and the attach functionality is scarcely functional.

As a test try changing the footprint of the cap on the schematic document to any other 2 pin footprint you know works and then run Home | Project > Update PCB Document from the schematic. A second test would be to manually add the footprint to the PCB, make sure the cap on the schematic is using the correct footprint name and then try Update PCB Document again.
