I am currently having a problem tagging faces:  When I try to draw a face region, I can select the "draw face region" icon and it changes to be highlighted...but my curser does not change to allow me to draw a recangle (it just stays a magnifying glass and if I click it zooms in)...

First, restart your computer. If the problem persists, try resetting LR's preferences:

LR sometimes soils its preferences file, and resetting it can fix all sorts of wonky behavior. That article explains how to restore the old preferences if resetting doesn't help.
