Sometimes notebooks get subtly corrupted. If you can read and correct box expressions, then you can use ctrl+shift+e on a cell and manually correct the problem. Otherwise, (1) copy the affected cells as plain text, (2) paste it into a text editor, (4) manually correct any problems in the text editor, (5) delete the problem cell, (6) create a new cell, (7) paste the text back in. If that doesn't work, manually retype the cell.
