Hi
That happened to me yesterday! I thought I was doing
something wrong (I had gone back into Cinahl and was combining earlier Cinahl terms
with my new terms) but I did get that message and I was in Cinahl.
I was not aware that you could search a different
database without selecting it. I thought I had moved it in the drop down menu
but the databases are not scrollable by mouse you have to physically go in and
select the new database (as far as I can work out).
Unsure if this helps in any way other than you are not
alone !

- cannot access
I have been using it most of this morning,
went in the same way Anita did and it has been working fine except for a rather
odd occurrence; I was doing a search in Cinalh, made one set up then made a
second set up and went to combine the two, at which point it came up with an
error message saying you cannot combine sets from different databases,
“I’m not” I thought but the second set was tagged as being a
Medline search, although it said I was currently searching in Cinahl. I thought
I was going mad, but I don’t think you can inadvertently search a
different database without actually physically going out to the databases
selecting a different one and going back to the search and not be aware of it.
Can you?
Kind Regards

Subject: Healthcare databases -
cannot access
Dear
all,
I
find I am unable to access the Healthcare Databases on NHS Evidence. I either
go round and round from Athens Authentication back to the main page, with
advanced search and Cochrane, or get an error message.
Is
anyone else having the same problem? I have emailed NHSE.
