Hi Patrick. I didn't transfer the App as well, I kept the new B61 version I'd just downloaded.
Just visited my guest account again, attached are all the console messages created upon setting up a new QS. Again the catalogue was empty after going through all the rotating cube business. Should all the catalogue entries be created during this phase or are they created in response to plugins downloaded or settings set? Obviously though if this is just an isolated case effecting only me it's no problem as I've found a workaround.
