I have just bought Logos software. 2 main concerns to start with.

I loaded it up onto my office Mac and my Home Mac (for when I start my prep, and for when I'm finishing). However both have different resources available, anyone know why?

And finally, since I downloaded and started to run it, its updated now 4 times at 3-4gb. Does it always update and keep downloading, or will it eventually stop?!

 

Thanks

    Welcome [:D]

    Wiki has => Getting Started with Logos page with useful Tips and links to Logos tutorial videos and more Wiki pages.

    Once all downloads are done and indexing complete, then time to compare resource count.  Logos 4 Mac currently needs many sessions to download lots of resource files (time outs occur while downloads are in progress).  To download 169 resources (643 MB) took me 10 download sessions using Logos 4.3 Beta 7 (follow-up posted for Logos developer review).  After each download session, the number of files to download decreased along with size.  Number of queued updates is listed in Indexer.log file.

    Option: wiki Mac Troubleshooting => How to Report Bugs in Logos 4 Mac section has steps for reporting bugs.  If would like log file contents reviewed, please post them. 

    Wondering about Logos 4 Mac version ? (current stable release is Logos 4.2b SR-1)

    Observation: for future Mac questions, could post in Logos 4 Mac forum.

    Hi can you help. Why is my Logos software constantly updating, one update after another, of substantial size too? is this normal. Not complaining but worried I might eventually run out of space at this rate!

    Logos System Requirements page includes Logos Library sizes (for base packages).  For space, need another 50 % to 100 % of library size for indexing.

    Each Logos 4 Mac download session shows total size to download; each resource file has one download destination.  If a download times out, new download overwrites previous failed attempt.

    Keep Smiling [:)]
