hi everyone i have a problem i keep getting 3 errors i cant seem to get rid of if anyone has advice that would be great. (edit) ive added the schematic when i run the erc test i get no faults
Looks like Kicad wants you to short the pins of F1 and F2.
This in probably an error on your schematics.
Can you post the schematic?
And it looks like another short is wanted across “R”.
It is also my first thought, But error says about missing connection between pad and track and not pad and pad. May be schematic is correct but there are some wrongly placed track segments left.
I have no KiCad at home (Win 7) to check which errors you get in which situation.
That’s irrelevant, the DRC will just randomly pick two items of the “islands” that should be connected according to the schematics/netlist.
We can see from the screenshot that both pads have the same net, so they must be connected on the schematics.
I tried to read it.
You must have better monitor or eyes 
The net is also displayed in the DRC window and easily readable there
KiCad V8 has gotten some nice tricks, for example when you have a wire in the schematic, and you place a fuse (or resistor, or capacitor) on it, then it automatically cuts the wire underneath the symbol so it does not get shorted. However it is still possible to short such schematic symbols right through the symbol itself. With a resistor or a capacitor, you can still see a part of the drawn wire, but a fuse already has a line in it’s center, and the only way to see it’s shorted is by the extra junction dots on the pins. In the screenshot below, the bottom three schematic symbols are shorted out.
