Hi Linda, I'm basing my comments on the Apex since that's the only BrailleNote I've ever used.
The user guide is a bit of a strange beast with navigation rules different from the word processor or book reader. According to said user guide, you navigate by sentence by pressing the space bar with dot 1, dots 1 and 4, or dot 4. Apparently some of the thumb key functionality doesn't work there. Also, as you've discovered, the Space with F "Find" command apparently doesn't work either. I think the only way to get to a new section in a different chapter is to hit the Backspace key to move back to the table of contents or index and then walk your way to the section you want. You can step from section to section, at least in the current chapter, by hitting Space with dots 1-2-3 or Space with dots 4-5-6. There is a folder on your Flash disk called "Manual" that has text files of each chapter of the manual, and those you can navigate normally with the book reader or word processor. I hope this is somewhat helpful.

Can someone tell me why I am not able to use my left thumb key to go back a sentence in the user guide? It seems to take me out completely. Also, is there a way to do a search when you are reading the user guide and it says something like, "See chapter 7?" Thanks. Linda ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
