   Installed the plug-in 'Magazine Columns' and activated it.
   Followed the ReadMe instructions, used the column tabs in the HTML editor in a post. Tested with the following dummy text:

   <!--startcolumns-->
   <!--column-->
   Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum
   <!--column--><!--column-->
   Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum Lorium ipsum
   <!--stopcolumns-->

   There are no columns created. See outcome here:

   How do I get this plug-in working?

   Thanks,
   Eric

   for reasons unmentioned in the plugin description, it only works on singular pages such as a static page or single post;

   (caused by this line in the plugin code: if(stristr($content, '<!--column-->') && is_singular()) {)

   you can see the columns working if you click on the title of your post.

   you possibly need to use a different plugin.

   ps:
   related topic: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-magazine-columns-why-columns-work-in-single-post-but-not-on-cat-page?replies=12

   possibly try to exchange the main plugin file (magazine-columns.php) with this: http://pastebin.com/T2shxXBs
