Yes, that is the most likely the problem. You need to know your version of Inkscape and do the appropriate "fix", such as a path/union on circles and rectangles instead of a path/object to path.
Also remember how old SCAL1 is so that could also be a problem with Ink 0.47. An upgrade to SCAL2 would be advisable I think.
Good Luck, I hope you work it out.

Not exactly sure what you are doing. In INK.47, you can draw a circle on a square (or vice versa), select both shapes, Path>Combine and you will end up with a square with a hole in it.
I haven't watched her tuts so I am not sure what's going on. If many of her tuts were created using .46, that might be where the problem lies. Some functions are different between the two version.
