I had the problems with motion guide sometime ago, I found 3 diferent
problems:

1.- When I was using Big simbols in normal view, I didn't lock the simbol
correctly to the beggining and the end. That was corrected by zooming in and
locking the simbol precisely with the motion guide.

2.- I had problems when I tried using a very complicated motion guide, seems
that the path was cutting itself at some points and the simbol couldn't use
the guide. I draw the guide again and it worked.

3.- I couldn't add a motion guide to buttons. I created a symbol with the
button inside it, and tweened that symbol. ( I don't know if this is the
best way, but it worked for me).

Check if any of this simple cases apply to you. As Carrie says:
