How do I create a new notebook in ipython notebook?

I'm trying to create a new notebook in ipython but the notebook option is greyed out. I first of all open a console and go to the ipython folder and launch using ipyhon notebook. I get the following messages which don't look like errors:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\Users\aurquhart>cd ipython

C:\Users\ipython>ipython notebook [I 09:20:46.487 NotebookApp] Using existing profile dir: 'C:\Users\ ipython\profile_default' [I 09:20:46.501 NotebookApp] Using MathJax from CDN: https://cdn.mathjax.org/mat hjax/latest/MathJax.js [I 09:20:46.563 NotebookApp] Serving notebooks from local directory: C:\Users \ipython [I 09:20:46.564 NotebookApp] 0 active kernels [I 09:20:46.564 NotebookApp] The IPython Notebook is running at: http://localhos t:8888/ [I 09:20:46.564 NotebookApp] Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels (twice to skip confirmation).

It does then open a browser window pointing to http://localhost:8888/tree but the option to add a new notebook is blank. I can see various python scripts I have in the folder though, although I cannot run them.

Any ideas on how to be able to open a new notebook?

Thanks AniaG - There is an option to add a new Python 3 which does actually create a new notebook. I tried this before and it didn't work but once I'd navigated to the ipython folder and run ipython from here this option now works.
