Cannot figure out how to lookup a word in Naves or other topical resources.  I click on a blank area and a find box drops down.  I type in a topic I know is in there and it always says "Reference Not Recognized".  Can anyone help with this?

    Tim, that is strange. As I type I get info in the drop-down box to choose from:

    EDIT: Sorry, Tim, didn't see you were using an Android device. (It obviously works on the PC.)

    I can confirm this as well. In "The New Nave's Topical Bible" on the Android, if you tap on the Bible, a search box appears. When you enter a topic in the resulting search box (Jesus, Grace, Sin, etc.), the only thing that returns is "Reference not recognized". I'm not sure of the solution, but can confirm the issue.

    I guess since I'm not the only one it is either a bug or that search box is meant to do something else?  As I said you just tap on a blank area or swipe down with your finger and a search box drops down (the same one that drops down for any resource).  For a Bible I just type in a bible reference and it works fine but with the Naves and other books it does not seem to work properly.

    I too, could not use the search box. If you type a passage into it it will bring it up in your preferred Bible.  To find a listing in Nave's you can tap on the symbol beside the box which opens the index and then go to the appropriate entry.

    It works perfectly on my desktop.  On my iPad2 it works the same way you describe how it works on the android.         Sorry I couldn`t help.     Peace to all!      *smile*

    Hi Tim,

    Thanks for the report.  I'll write up a case for our Development department.
