Okay not to insult you, but its spelled please, and only one ? not four. As for your issue, make sure your tapping the aim button not holding it down, you'll just zoom in that way, you also have to make sure you reload your ammo, no auto reload in Arma, make sure you do the boot camp in the main menu of Arma before contuning this conversion.

Change to sidearm, change back to primary. Or pick it up again.

are you maybe stuck in freelook mode? (toggle: double alt or * (numpad))

do you have the appropriate ammo? (what does the weapon info text say in the upper right corner of your screen? and what color is it?)

It's some kind of a bug, i'm sure. A friend of mine has the exact same issue where he can do everything else but aim and shoot. Have to solution atm, will update if I find something useful.

as for the text in the right hand corner it is green showing my ammo and the name of the gun i can shoot my gun i just look down the sight of my gun which makes it hard to kill zombies and players.
