Peter,

Did you get the Pro Plus version or just Pro? If Pro Plus, be sure to turn the All Sky Image on. It takes a little while for my poor four year old notebook to load, but, it's gorgeous. I use Starry Night Pro Plus with its equipment list and fields of view, for all my planning, composition, framing, etc. It's an excellent piece of software.

Regards,
