When I select the the "...More" tool, then select "Find", I cannot access the search options. When I try to scroll them up, they immediately scroll back down as soon as my finger leaves the screen.

It sounds like you are in landscape mode within the Find dialog. Rotate the device to portrait mode, set the options, then rotate back to landscape mode.

I am unable to perform an "entire document" search through a songbook. The songbook has a home page that does not contain any hyperlinks (or Table of Contents) to take you to the different songs. Therefore in order to access the songs, you have to perform a search and enter the song number or a phrase within the particular song. So I hit the gear at the top left of the "Search" screen, set the "Entire Document" option to "ON", and type in a song number or phrase. It then always immediately returns the message "No more matches for "...."". It doesn't even pull up the search progress bar, just immediately spits out the message.
The weird thing is that if I tap close to the bottom or the top of the screen THREE TIMES it will actually start scrolling through the songs one by one. It jumps back one song if I tap near the top of the screen three times and jumps forward one song if I tap near the bottom. Therefore I know that the content of the document is fully there. However, there are close to 1300 songs in this book so this is method not adequate :( .
In addition to this, in read view it seems that numbers to the stanzas of the songs, which are on the left of the document page, have been cut off.

Can you try setting the range field to "Top to Bottom" to see whether it helps?

It jumps back one song if I tap near the top of the screen three times and jumps forward one song if I tap near the bottom.The triple taps are actually some unofficial functionality at work. See this thread (http://forum.isilo.com/showthread.php?t=4705).

Can you get into the first song? I tried this on another song book that I use, when I am at the level with the song number I can NOT search within the TEXT of the songs. But once I chose one song (nr 1) and THEN searched, it actually searched through the text of ALL the songs.
Since I did this with a totally different song book (based on the 1300 songs you mention, the one I use has only 225) this might not apply to yours depending upon how it is setup.

iSilo: Thank you so much. Setting the search from top to bottom did indeed fix the issue.
Justme: Thank you for the suggestion. That did work until I discovered that I could indeed just switch the search range to "top to bottom" from the home page and it would work.
However, the cutting off problem does remain. I have sent you the document.
You guys are awesome.

The issue with the numbers being cut off has to do with the spacing being calculated as half of what it is expected to be. This issue will be addressed in the next update.
