Carl Canady:How do I make sure they are in LOGOS?
The list of books Logos shows you owned in Wordsearch is at https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration
If some are missing look at https://blog.wordsearchbible.com/2020/09/24/9-reasons-you-might-not-see-your-books-yet-and-what-to-do-about-it/
Thanks!!! I have them in my library but it just does not show that I owned them on the website?
Going through the library comparison list again tonight (I have to do these in batches when time permits). These I’m not easily seeing in my Wordsearch imported list. Some of these are likely false positives, and some of these I’m sure I owned in Logos prior to the Wordsearch acquisition, but I’m just listing them here to make sure I know which titles line up:
When I get done with the mismatches, I’m going to go back through my Wordsearch list and see which ones are marked “Not Started” and request ETAs on some of those in another thread.
Thanks!

The easy way is going to be looking up the Wordsearch book ID at https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/catalog or https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration.
Nathan Parker:Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
This is 0:50 in Wordsearch, which is mapped to six volumes of A Commentary, Critical, Experimental, and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments: Commentary and one of Bible Text.
You should be able to match up the other titles by finding the Wordsearch ID first.

Great. I’ll check this out and report back any true negatives.
Bradley,
I notice that this Focus on the Bible Pre-pub isn't discounting at all for the 7 of 12 volumes that I own from Wordsearch. Is that because of licensing mismatch?

No, PrePubs generally don't show dynamic price.

You may own different resources. Wordsearch had Job: Will You Torment a Windblown Leaf? and Job: The Mystery of Suffering and God's Sovereignty. This pre-pub only has the latter. If you owned the former in Wordsearch, you won't get a discount.
I'd first check to make sure they actually are the same resources (with the same authors and copyright dates).
Is there a way to get a list of all of my book ID’s exported using the Wordsearch app itself? That would allow me to easily compare it with the list at Logos.com and know 100% what the true mismatches are.

C:\ProgramData\WORDsearch\Global Data\Users\USERNAME\CloudUnlocks.json is a text file that has all your book IDs, but you'd need to reformat the data to see it clearly.

Thanks. Showing it to a database tech to see if I can easily get the data into Excel, then I’ll run a comparison between the two book ID lists and only report back the true mismatches.
Looks like this will convert it:

Hi Bradley,
Six of them are the exact same book with the same publication date:
I already have access to them in Logos (even though they are still in Pre-Pub), so it seems the WS license did transfer. I just wondered why the larger Pre-Pub upgrade containing them doesn't dynamically price based on the licenses I already own. Does this mean that if I wanted to buy the other six volumes in Pre-Pub, I would be forced to pay for the whole set of 12 (including the six I already own)?
John Simpson: Looks like this will convert it: https://www.aconvert.com/document/json-to-xls/
It did the trick. I now have two XLS docs to compare. I’m having a database tech compare the contents of the two using his comparison tool, then I can report back with any real library mismatches.
If you look at this file there is no conversion necessary. Just open in Excel.
C:\ProgramData\WORDsearch\Global Data\booklist.xml
the extension may not be visible depending on how you have your system set up.
Almost forgot, your using the Mac version. Try:
/The-root-of-your-system/Users/your-username/Library/Application Support/WORDsearch 12/Bottles/wordsearch/drive_c/users/Public/Application Data/WORDsearch/Global Data/booklist.xml
Note: the above is all One-Long-String!
Or this shorter path I just figured out...
/Library/Application Support/WORDsearch/Global Data/booklist.xml
duh! learning something every minute of every day!
I believe Nathan was just looking for a list of books Wordsearch shows he owns (with book ids). Booklist.xml is everything ever produced by Wordsearch. Booklist.xml matches https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/catalog
Nathan was looking for the Wordsearch equivalent of https://www.logos.com/wordsearch/library-migration to be sure the owned books matched. The only Wordsearch list of owned books that I have found with book id's is the json file.
Stevefl:I already have access to them in Logos (even though they are still in Pre-Pub), so it seems the WS license did transfer. I just wondered why the larger Pre-Pub upgrade containing them doesn't dynamically price based on the licenses I already own.
I'll enquire if this should be dynamically priced or if it's configured incorrectly.

Well, color me stupid!
My error. I was under the mistaken impression that that file was "my" library listing.
Sorry for the spreading the wrong information. Thank you for the correction.
Good news and bad news...
Good news is I have the lists of the two ID numbers.
Bad news the formatting of both are different from each other, so when I attempt to run a comparison between the two in Excel, they’re still not checking out correctly.
If someone wants to email me here, I can email you both lists and see if you can figure out a way to bulk-tweak the formatting so the two lists could be run through a comparison tool so I can get back only true mismatches:

This set should be dynamically priced for you now.
