Using JH 7.3 on Macs

December 17, 2008

Dear Narayan,

Have you had any luck using the " Help " drop down? I can open it now,

but only the " Topics " tab works which I then scroll through. I would

love to have the Contents and Search tabs working.

Blessings to all,

Julli

Dear Julli,

Please go through SanjayP's message earlier, I guess you may have to
