If I recall correctly (I haven't used AP in a while as my oldish Windows laptop runs it v. slowly) the FOV screen will display / update acc. to what catalogs you have selected in the Use | Catalogue | Label window. My suspicion is the demo only comes with a limited star catalog & that you would need to register to get the more extended catalogs.

Again, that's my best guess based on memories. AP is a fabulous program, and Paul (the developer) is very open and receptive. You might find the Yahoo! group for AP useful.
