After I do the first image in a batch, how do I move to the next image?

You may want to try the guided tour to know how to index:

1. Go through the guided tour:
   1. In the My Batches list, click Guided Tour—Introduction to Indexing. Note: This option will disappear after you have indexed 4 batches. But you can find a link to the guided tour by hovering the mouse pointer over the Indexing tab and then, in the drop-down menu, clicking Overview.
   2. To complete the guided tour, follow the instructions on the screen.
   3. Click Find Batches.
   4. In the panel on the left, you can select the difficulty level, language, and other preferences; then click Search.
   5. If you want to sort the list of batches, click the Sort By button above the list.
   6. When you find a batch you want to work on, click the Index button.
2. Find a batch you want to work on. 
3. Read the project instructions and field helps.
4. Examine the image carefully, and, in the data entry area, type the requested information.

Hope this helps.

First check your batch and see if it says Image 1 of 1 in the blue box. If it does, that means there is 1 image and nothing to move on to. Some of these projects have a preset number of entries, like 1 of 30. After you index all the information on your image, then you need to delete the unused entries. To do this, click on the Trash Can icon, choose "all blank entries", and click delete. Now you will be able to submit your batch.

The best way to get an accurate answer is to provide the batch code so others can see what you are seeing. The batch code is the series of letters and numbers in brackets following the title of the project at the top of your screen. For example: US, New York—Naturalization Records, 1820–1991 [Part B][M3HV-6X6]. The batch code is M3HV-6X6. You can post that with your question, or as a comment in this thread.

Thank you Melissa S Himes. I could not figure it out at all how to get the next batch.
