I've been creating my families and some of my families download into a project then others will not. I get the following warning "Couldn't find an appropriate Host. Try Selecting a different Host Face or Switch Placement Mode." What is this warning all about and how do I fix this so once I but my families out online for others to use they will work for them? I need to get this resolved ASAP

This may help you understand:
http://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2014/ENU/?guid=GUID-7B632B85-BB40-4935-B31E-EF829832EEB0
Look on your ribbon when this occurs and you will see an option to change placement faces.

This did not help, there is nothing I can do to the plane once I try to load it into the project. What is causing this to pop up on some of my families and not all of them.

Our problem is you don't tell us enough for us to give you a complete answer.
Your families are obviously built as hosted. Hosted to what? A floor, a level, a wall, a ceiling, a face, a work plane based? You built them - not us. Are you working in the correct view to place these objects? For example, a ceiling hosted element typically can't find a ceiling while your in a floor plan view.
Every view has a work plane but that can be changed by the user as he works. Are you doing this?
Are the hosted element category turned on in the view you are working in? You sure can't place a floor hosted element when there is no floor.

I created all my families from the floor level up. I do change the plane that i'm working from. Do I need to change them back to what it was after i'm finished with the model? I am new at using Revit so please help with whatever as I have over 500 models created and 25% of them won't go into a project.
