The columns function does not seem to be working?

The columns function does not seem to be working?

made 4 templates with the 2 columns in them. In a test email these show as 1 column. So i decided to look at a predefined email to see what's up. So i opened up business32. Here the entire background is black and if i mail it to myself it also has the same problem! Both columns turn into 1. See screenshots. Please help.
