Hi, I'm looking for a way to search just for things I have tagged a certain way. For instance, I have a b-movies tag, and I'd like to just see things I have with that tag. I tried looking through the forums to find information on it, but every bit I find either includes an image that doesn't work or to use the filters. I may be doing something wrong, but filters only seems to search the titles, so if there is a way to search other things, I have yet to find it. Any help would be appreciated.

Using filters is the only way to accomplish what you want to do.  Under "Filters" there are 11 tabs, one of them being called "Tags".  Select the tag you want to filter your collection by and your collection will be filtered by that.  I do this each and every day from DVD Profiler for PC.

I'm not sure where you're referrng to. The only place I see Tags in any of the drop down menus is View->Windows->Filters, and it's just a box to check or uncheck. There's the search bar, but that has no options, it's just a search bar. The only thing that shows when I click the arrow next it is "add or remove button." I thought I would find an option in Collection, particularly if I go Collection->Sort By, but there's no option to related to tags. If I go Collection->Flagged, there is an option to Set Tags, but it's greyed out as I currently don't have anything flagged. Where is the Filters option?

When you enable the search window with View->Windows->Filters, then it will appear in your layout somewhere:



On there you will find scroll buttons on the upper right. The one that looks like it is disabled is actually the enabled one and you can scroll right until you come to the Tags tab:
