I am in the middle of a hidden object scene, where I can't select one of the items in it (a fur hat). I tried using a hint - the hint indicates that I found the right item, but no clicking on it or around it can select it. Since there's an item I need from that scene, I can't continue the game. I can't start the scene over again, because if you back out and go back in it starts where you left off.

Edit: I tried the next day, randomly slicking everywhere on the cap, and it eventually worked. That happened with one other object as well.
