Can't find 12P/Pons-Brooks in Thesky Professional

Hi All,   Just purchased and installed Thesky professional app on my computer to find and follow and acquire the Pons-Brooks comet.  Been trying for a while with different entries to no avail.  I watched Adam pull it up by just entering pons.  Did not work for me.  I must have some setting wrong or doing something wrong.  Any help in matter appreciated.

    Go to Find and then got the Advanced Tab. You can select comets and then scroll down the list for any one you want. You will need to download the comet database (there is a button) first of course.

    Hi BlockHead.  In the advanced tab in FIND and no items under Comets. Where is this button to download the comet database?  Best

    In the top menu go to "Input->Small Solar System Bodies->Comets (Tab)" and click on "Observable" . You will need to be connected to the internet for this to work.
