Don't know what I did wrong, but I did a restore--reset user settings. That solved the problem.
Thanks for your reply.
Thanks for your reply.
I've been struggling with that issue for a week now. Everything was fine until I added 3 TGIDs to my Fav list and uploaded to the scanner. All of sudden, "Nothing to Scan".I checked the profile and made sure ALL Service Types were selected. Still nothing. At some point during multiple attempts to load a working profile I checked the Service Types list and found that NONE were checked and I could not select them manually. WTF? In desperation I created a new profile and built a new Fav list and uploaded it. Eureka! It worked. Later I made a change to the list and uploaded it and was back to the same Nothing to Scan problem. This time I uninstalled Sentinel and reinstalled it. Bingo, worked again. Dunno what's going on but right now it works and I'm afraid to make a change.

When you open Sentinel click on edit then edit profile make sure your monitor lists are checked on along with the service types you want before you upload to your scanner.

Checked and double checked. Like I said, the odd thing was I checked ALL Service Types yet after the upload, the scanner had none checked nor would it let me change any of them. Monitor and Download are both on. Problem happens when I make a change to the Fav list.

Check carefully through this list.... you will find the error.

The "Nothing to Scan" question comes up frequently. The link posted above is an excellent means to figure out what may be going on.
Perhaps the moderators could make a Sticky of that link.
