Joe, well its gets uglier. I did try typing some stuff into the search box and nothing seemed to happen. I instead of hearing "html" where I'd interact and read, I get "scroll area" which I can't interact with. I also went over to my wife's Mini and the exact same problem. Now I can't honestly say what happen, but I'm nearly sure I used help in the last day or so to look u soem stuff. I'm completely stumpped with this one. I thought at first upgrading to 10.4.5 had something to do with it, but that was more than a week ago. The fact its happening on her box as well has me really curious and I loged in as her to see if there's any difference and not at all. What's so odd is if I go to the library I can open and access some files, but not the Mac help file. What is even more curious and this is the same on her Mini, when I first open help with shift+command+? I don't see the usual "html" and instead see the "scroll area" which is odd.

Hi Scott,

Actually, the Help Viewer *is* basically a mini web browser. What happens if you enter something in the "search text field" and press 'Return'?

Folks, I went into help intending to look something up. I got the usual open screen and I guess this help viewer is like a miny web browser or something. In any case clicking on any link accept the Apple web site at the top yields no results. I was trying for example to bring up the index, but using the VO spacebar combo, enter, or even the physical mouse does nothing. The help VIewer needs help. grin
Does anyone have any ideas?
