When I look up a word, it gives be a line break bar as the definition.  For everything I attempt to look up. I know it goes through dictionary.com, but maybe something's getting screwed up in between there? Any ideas? This happening to anyone else?

The synonyms window works, but not the definition. Just that damn bar sitting there for every word. I tried deleting the plists, prefs, everything. Still no go.

Wait, nevermind, you guys are right, it doesn't work. Thought he was talking about the bottom box, which is all I needed anyways, still tells me what a word means.

I'm thinking maybe Dictionary.com changed some coding on their web site that's conflicting with Sherlock?

Use OmniDictionary.
It's more useful anyway, due to it's Services integration.

Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

Just tried OmniDictionary. It's cool and all—I like it—but I would still like to fix Sherlock, or at least know what's up. Thanks for that, by the way. I didn't even know OmniGroup made a dictionary app.

Damn, I opened this thread expecting to see at least 2 'Sherlock sucks, I use Watson' replies.

Weird. It's working great on all my Macs now...
What are you trying to look up? Might be a problem with your system...
