This was a new problem to me so I had very little to suggest and without the ability to reference the forums I couldn't remember how to reset the registry. His shows/books do not use bookids and he had no listing of them anywhere, he was totally dependant on that search window. After about a half hour someone made a good guess with the mouse and managed to pluck the thing out of the abyss.

After this I "new feature" requested a button that would reset it (and the SND since that was often getting lost as well).
Maybe in "Help" there could be a selection that would take one to an emergency troubleshhoting section of the manual that might address these things??

A good back up is to have a second laptop handy, you can be up and running in 5 minutes.

Sort the other problem out when you get home.
