Thanks, I did eventually get on to the Handbook link with advice from Launchpad, but it is not as clearly laid out as the manual for Rhythmbox -

http://library.gnome.org/users/rhythmbox/unstable/


...this was the final outcome: Your question #83237 on amarok in ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/amarok/+question/83237
   You confirmed that the question is solved:
Thanks Guys, this was the 'Handbook' I was looking for, but in both Ubuntu & Xubuntu 9.04 systems the same error came up: Error - KDE Help Centre: The file or folder -------- does not exist!
So, I guess this will need to be looked at. Thanks again - Terry

Hope this can be rectified soon - regards Terry
