I entered in 1099- MISC under the business section. In the personal section it shows for 2015 a total but for 2016 it doesn't. Am I doing something wrong?

No, you are not doing anything wrong. That is a change from 2015. In the past, the 1099-MISC would show in both the Personal Income Summary and the Business Income summary, and it gave the appearance that the income was double-reported. If you can see your 1099-MISC in your business income, it is reported correctly. 

What hasn't changed is that your 1099-MISC will be reported as part of your Schedule C Business Income on line 12 of your 1040.
