Cannot search words in resources

After updating to Logos 6 a few days ago, I'm suddenly having trouble searching for a word or phrase in books. Bible searches work fine, but when I choose another resource, Logos never turns up any hits even if it's a very simple word. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

1 Yes - you are not using the paper clip to attach screen shots which means that I had to download your file onto my computer to see it.

2 No - works fine for me

If indexing did not finish correctly, this could be the result (searching looks at the indexes).

If indexing is not currently running, you could restart it by typing rebuild library index in the Logos command bar. This will re index your library, except for your Bibles or personal books (they have their own index).

Did indexing finish or was it interrupted? It looks like something wrong with the index. You can rebuild the index with the following command

rebuild Index

This forces a complete reindex of the library. It will restart the Indexer from the beginning if it is already running, but it could run for a long time depending on the size of your library.

Ok, thanks. I'll try rebuilding the index and see if that works. Oh, and I'm sorry for not using the paperclip - that was my first time to try and upload a screenshot and I did it wrong.

No problem Scott - you can see that the unscrupulous might take advantage of the trusting folk on the forum by using this method.

Sorry, Scott. Most folks see the single-digit number of posts for a newbie and then explain how to upload screenshots; unfortunately, you didn't get that courtesy this time. Probably an oversight.

In any case, welcome to the forums.

Thanks for the understanding, everyone. And, yes, rebuilding the index solved the problem! Thanks again and God bless!
