Try moving the main roof plane where you want to place dormers "UP" a level to the "Attic" in terms of plan view, then try placing your dormers. This is a good idea in terms of an absence of possible interfering walls on the first floor.
The first consideration is how your "Dormer Defaults" are set up, in that if the default geometry is "wrong" for where you are trying to place a dormer they they do not "place" at all (make sure the defaults are set so the dormer will fit into the intended space).
