Just crashes starting up. I finally see my last workspace appear for a split second and the program crashes.
Hey Eric! Sorry you are having troubles
I am in a hurry, but wanted to suggest a couple of things. I didn't see anything in the logs that popped out to me (but I'm only half techie…)
Have you tried loading to a blank layout? Press and hold the command key immediately upon startup. Check the appropriate box. If the layout became corrupted somehow, this will allow you to bypass and rebuild it.
Also, is there a reason you aren't using at least the free L5 engine? There is no reason for you not to be doing so since you are running 10.8. http://www.logos.com/installation

Thanks! I forgot about the Command on startup trick. I was able to start logos with a blank layout. It does look like a problem with the layout. I'll have to rebuild it I guess.
As far as the upgrade to the L5 engine, I had no idea it was free. I kept getting all the upgrade notices, which I am not interested in because of the costs. Plus, the last time I upgraded from 3 to 4 I lost functionality and from Windows to Mac I lost functionality and usability. To be honest, I don't even use logos on my mac very much any more because of it. It is extremely slow and buggy.

I would encourage you to do the free upgrade.
I don't use a Mac but from the comments of many who do, Logos 5 is better and faster on the Mac than L4 was and has much fewer bugs.
Just download the L5 engine. Will not start up. Just tries, I see a window briefly appear and then goes away. I tried to start it with a blank layout...same thing. Not a good first impression.
I have attached the new logs if someone wants to take a look.

Hi Eric
I can't see the logs. Can you try again?

I think it didn't work on the "Quick Reply"

Great! In typical logos fashion...now I can't even go back and use version 4.
The best I can tell from the logs is that there is an issue when accessing your homepage.
Does Alabama's suggestion of opening to a blank layout work?
I seem to remember there being reports of an issue in accessing the homepage but can't find any details.
Hopefully one of the Mac users here will be able to comment.
I tried a blank layout. Still doesn't work.
Eric S. Hatfield: Great! In typical logos fashion...now I can't even go back and use version 4.
Logos 5 is essentially an upgrade to L4 - so there is really no need to go back to L4.
I appreciate that doesn't help with the frustrating experience you are having
There is if version 5 is not working and you need to get some work done.
I will create a link to the Logos 5 forum to this thread so that - hopefully - some Mac-experienced people will see it.

Please try working offline. If crash repeats, please post new zip of log files.
Noticed LogosCrash.txt shows a crash on the Home Page when accessing Library index.

Pending a resolution are you aware you can access most of your resources at biblia.com?
It could help a little in the short-term

Working offline didn't help...here are the logs.

Check the release notes for the betas, possibly beta 3.
One option would be to download RC3 from 5.1a Release Candidate 3 (5.1.1.0593) available and see if that fixes it.

I just downloaded the latest from the site this morning. Would I need to go back to Beta to fix this?
I don't know how to get RC seeing that I can't run the app to type the "Update Now" command
Thanks fgh
fgh:Check the release notes for the betas, possibly beta 3.
I found it in the release notes for Beta 2 - which fixes a crash when opening the home page.
However, the footprint of Eric's crash is different so probably not relevant.
