Br. Raymond Minot:So I did not pay $70, I paid hundreds... the same exact price that a Windows user paid, and did so because eventually it was supposed to work the same way.
Raymond,
If you paid hundreds then you bought a package right?
The resources you bought in that package are yours...even if you just get the free engine...you are out nothing. Your resources are yours.
If you now want MORE RESOURCES that enhance the v4 engine...then that's 70 dollars.
But those resources are yours.

Yes and no. This is what Windows users don't seem to understand. At least as far as what I've seen here. Yes the resources purchased in the package are mine. The books don't change and work with the new version 4. This is all good. No one is looking for more. It's the "no" part that makes all the difference.
In the Windows version, things like pronunciation, hymns, Biblical people (which is really cool), Timelines (excellent for the historically challenged), etc. work. They are called add-ons. They are called so because they are not (as far as I've been able to tell) part of the engine itself. Can I use them? Sure. Why? Because somehow I figured out how to install the Mac package that I bought on a Windows machine. This works. These add-ons were supposed to be incorporated into the Mac version.
The Mac version 1 cannot make use of those add-ons and does not have them incorporated into the engine. This was supposed to be happening. Instead, version 4 has come out. So having to pay something means paying for the same thing twice.
Ray,
I think I get what you're saying now...whew...it was a long haul...
I agree...there are elements that cross over and you'd be "in effect" paying twice for the same elements....
I would hope Logos would waive the 70 dollars for those who went to v4 for this reason...(that is unless I as a windows users still don't understand)
Alleluia! You've got it.
Bob,
I puchased the Logos4Mac and now I find that it will not work on PowerPC machines.
Is there plan to offer a PowerPC version?

from everything I have been reading they have no plans on offering the program for PPC. I have been told that they have a 30 day refund policy so if you are going to be running PPC might want to check into that. Have a great day and God bless.
I can say I feel exactly the same way. I changed from Windows to MAC platform about a year ago BUT was never told at the time that not all of the functions I had previously purchased would work. At the time - I swore I'd never repeat that mistake. WELL - never say never. I stupidly bit the same hook!
This new MAC version of Logos 4 is barely functional. I understand the disclaimer and all - - but this thing works totally different on two different machines - - and both exhibit constant hangups and shutdowns of the program without any reason.
Total frustration with LOGOS right now. Trying to remain a Christian in my thoughts and attitude realm!
I downloaded the link and it did alot more , I had to go to the librairy and I selected NIV bible but I couldn't type in the passage I had to use the contents pane. It also gave me some media to look at on the passage guide. Every little bit helps.
