I'm also having interesting issues, and have talked extensively with CS
about them ...he's doing research ...but, in a nutshell, I can only select
books from my archived items and read them. If I go into any other screen,
such as downloaded books, Windows shuts down the entire app. Also, if I do
a search on a book that I *know* is there, i shows as no items shown. If I
buy a book from Amazon and send it to my KFPC, it sends it to downloaded
books (which I can't use) but not to the archived items screen. Hmmm
...what a lovely update, LOL!

Subject: [vi-kindle] Kindle for PC: Unable to Get "Search" Function to Work
Hello, everyone.
I am using Window-Eyes 7.5.4.1 with the Kindle for PC with Accessibility
Plugin. I can get to the "search" box by pressing "Control-F," and I
can enter a search string into the edit box. However, no matter which
key or keys I press, I cannot select a particular occurrence of that
search string and start reading from that point. Sometimes, the entire
list of possibilities is read, but I cannot isolate any one of them. I
know Loy has had success with this option. Could he or someone detail
the keystrokes necessary to make this function work? with the old
version, after typing in a string and pressing "Enter," the user only
had to press "Tab" enough times to get to the "You are here" button,
whereupon pressing the up or down arrow keys would read the various
search results. I have tried using the "Search" function with the QT
Support app running and with also with QT disabled.
Thanks very much for all help.
Craig
