could you confirm that the item you would like to balloon is showing up in the region?

you may have already done this but..

is it just one part or is this happening to all the parts?

also I'm guessing you have two repeat regions in the drawing. is that true?

check to make sure the part that you want to balloon has the required parameter that corresponds to the  bom balloon parameter in the table properties.

Just make a try like this.

Make sure you have set model to the assembly that you have in the view.

(Sometimes multiple assembly or assembly with family tables can cause confusion in a drawing BOM.)

And select that table . CUT (Ctrl+x) and paste (Ctrl+v), Then try to place the balloons by view. 

Hope this helps.

If that line item has been ballooned already then Creo wont let you create another one. if you want to create another one I would suggest creating a reference balloon, or what I do, I find the session ID of the item that I want ballooned, then I create a balloon note and enter the &parameter:sessionID.
If this is not what you are looking to do let us know and we will help you find a solution.
