You say that you have ratings turned on in Game Setup. However, the appearance of ratings can vary according to who is being quoted. By that, I mean which scout did (or did not) scout the players. Look for a "Select Scout" drop-down window and change the scout selection. Or, choose SISA but beware:

SISA is a group of unbiased scouts who provide reports on all players in the league. Even if you have fired all your scouts, SISA can provide you with some data on players in the game. Unfortunately, SISA is woefully understaffed, and as a result, it updates its reports on each player only once per year.

So ratings may be missing here and there if you choose SISA to look at instead of a scout's ratings. If you still don't see ratings, make sure you have had a scout do a scouting job on them; perhaps you overlooked that? Your head scout and minor league scouts scout your organization once a month IIRC, but nothing else is automatic in scouting unless you have set it up that way.

So I have to send Scouts out to rate other Teams? But when I started playing(Month ago) all the ratings were there. Now I see my Teams ratings but the other Teams are blank. I can't see what their CH or their Arms ratings are.

Yes. If you have scouting turned on, you have to scout! You can set up things to be automated but somebody has to do the work, otherwise you depend on SISA.

Of course, if you turn scouting off you will see all actual ratings according to how those are set in game options.

One more thing to consider: When a scout leaves your organization, he takes all of his scouting reports with him. That could account for how you are not seeing ratings that you saw before.
