Hi, Hmmm. I did the same as you entering “Starbucks” into my Entry field. The first result was your message, then I could arrow down through various other references to Starbucks that it found. Interestingly enough, I had more than a dozen references to Starbucks in various eMails and no others on my computer. Another interesting thing is that it did not display any Internet or Wikipedia results, which is likely false as I would venture to say that Starbucks should show up quite a bit around the Net. Probably some setting I need to manipulate.
