Hi,

I just noticed that I am unable to Sync Highlighting Palettes and Styles between L4W and L4M,

1. In red - A new Palette - "Z Herods in NT", created in L4W did not sync to L4M
2. In Yellow - New Styles and Edited Styles in "Z Original Words" were not sync from L4W to L4M
3. I have also tried creating a palette in L4M, it was not sync to L4W (I deleted that away)

I only noticed this in 4.3 Service Release 6 (v4.30.0.1613)

I just noticed in another thread that you have already run 4.5 beta on another computer. It is my understanding that this affects the sync of notes & highlights. I believe that this is the cause of your problem, but I am not positive.

Alabama24,

You are right on. I have 3 instances of Logos 4

1. Logos 4 for Mac (Stable Version) on OS X Lion
2. Logos 4 for Windows on Win 7 (Stable Version) on VM (Parallels 7.0)
3. Logos 4 for Windows on Win XP (Beta) on VM (Parallels 7.0)

I noticed the same effect on the Beta version. Thanks. Looks like I better be careful and stick to L4W whenever I create anything new; as I am concern about the effect of Sync when beta is finally released.

Thanks.

Curious about Logos 4 versions on Mac and PC ?

KS4J,

Yes, I would have expected Stable L4W and L4M to be able to sync properly. That is why I have "Bug" on Subject line. I was learning/enjoying from your Wiki example on Visual filers ... when I stumble on this issue. 

Since have stable Logos 4 in Windows virtual machine, could upgrade Logos 4 Mac to Beta that can sync with Logos 4 Beta in Windows VM.

Other option for Mac is creating another Mac user.  On a 27" iMac, my wife uses stable Logos 4.3 SR-6 that is installed in Applications folder with her user account while personally use Logos 4.5 Beta 4 in my Documents folder (often have both stable and beta Logos 4 Mac running).  For regression verification, have a third Mac account with stable Logos 4.2b SR-2 (also in Documents folder).  Also modified couple home permissions to add read access so can use scan command to copy resource files from one installation to another.

Forum thread => http://community.logos.com/forums/p/40527/302319.aspx#302319 has a screen shot with visual filter.

Learned Logos 4.5 Beta 5 on Mac has visual filter display issues with:

יהוה BEFORE 0-2 WORDS ("answered","blessed","called","commanded","commands","cries","had","has","of host")

so on Mac changed filter rule to (sync to Logos 4.5 Beta 5 on Windows):

lemma:יהוה BEFORE 0-2 WORDS ("answered","blessed","called","commanded","commands","cries","had","has","of host")

Keep Smiling
