Make sure your image scale is correct.
Unclick use all sky image link for automated pointing runs in the Automated Pointing Run window. For some reason that caused my Tpoint to not plate solve and it took me a while to discover that. As Peter points out you must need to download a database for that to work. I should do that too. It could be handy. I am downloading it now. Its 1.6gb and is at the SB Support site.
I find its best to use the Take Image and Link Photo to get the actual image scale and enter that into the automated pointing run box. If you can't run that image link TPoint wont work either.
Make sure you have the binning of the camera set correctly and the image scale for that binning. I was using 5 second 2x2 binning and then doubled the image scale that was reported for 1x1 binning. Make sure you are using the luminance filter. Make sure its a long enough exposure to give enough stars.
Try that and see how it goes. I find no trouble with my Proline 16803 as it gives lots of stars but found it hit and miss with the Trius 694 (mostly miss!).
