Hi, friends. I seem to have one bad resource file. The book is 1001 Illustrations that Connect. Whenever I try to open it, Logos 4 crashes and must be restarted. In the past, I could simply download the file from Products and replace it. How do I replace this resource now? Many thanks.
-
Suggestion was great, but the new file is also crashing the program! In other words, I hid it, unhid it, Logos indeed redownloaded the file, and I've tried opening it twice and got the crash. I guess this will be one for customer support.

Rosie, I think you may be right. I'm on the beta program for Logos, and it wouldn't surprise me if this is something that hasn't been caught yet. I'm going to try Room4's suggestion also.

I have ordered the new Lexham English Bible for Logos 4. It is, of course, free. The order went through, and I closed and reopened Logos. Nothing. Much later, still nothing. I also can't seem to see Lexham in Biblia.com. Am I missing something? From what I can tell, the translation should be available in Logos 4. I'm sure there's a simple answer to

Thanks, Dave. Just not happenin' for me, after many reopenings, sync nows, and update nows. Lexham is a no-show, though I do have the Logos version of the Lexham Bible Dictionary that came with the Faithlife Study Bible.

I'm in 8.1 preview, and as I've said in other threads, the verse of the day is stuck in my lock screen and cannot be taken out. It also seems to alternate two or three verses. I'm thinking it's a Win 8.1 thing.
-
The original article certainly isn't convincing to me. E-books have arrived, and the fellow had to really stretch to come up with some of those. I'm reading far more than ever before because of my Kindle. I talk to those people who sniff and say they have to have "a real book," but three months later, i meet them and they've come around. There is nothing

See my explanation in the other thread. Way back when I first got the problem, yes, I uninstalled the program, and the verse still appeared. I reinstalled it and selected a different lock screen option, and the verse still appeared. Uninstalled Verse of the Day again. Months later, that verse is still in my lock screen. Hard to be mad at a Bible verse
-
Thanks, David. And I want to add that Logos really shined throughout this. The Verse of the Day sticking was an 8.1 Preview issue, not a Logos issue, and I believe the SDK was not made public by Microsoft. Once I did the final 8.1 upgrade, I then clicked on the old (now empty) icon on my desktop for Logos, and everything reinstalled very smoothly from

I'm working toward getting Internet Bible studies going in our church, where there are many people who can't physically attend a weekly in-home group. To me that seems like an exciting opportunity. I have a question about a feature, but it's not a huge problem--there's a workaround but it could be better. We have a Faithlife group set up for our church
-
I know I'm not the only one. I've seen at least one other mention of this on the forum. It seems as if Logos 4, which a few weeks ago was a bit glacial in speed, has picked up in speed. Not perky, mind you, but workable. I confess I had gone back to L3 to a large extent, but now, just after I ordered a new and speedy laptop, my older laptop is doing

I actually got the full ESV Study Bible--Scripture and all the notes--for 10 dollars. On Kindle. I was shocked it would be sold for this low a price, and I jumped on it. Very good functionality, too. You read the Bible and the notes are hyperlinked to each verse. Works great. I would bet there are a few features missing but most of the good stuff is
-
The frequent resource updates got me to thinking. I saw that a couple of my commentaries and references were about to be "updated," and I assume that this is the tweaking of old content to jibe with a new kind of Logos software. But I wonder when the books themselves will become more dynamic and behave more like firmware? I remember how thrilled I was
-
This kind of thread is inevitable, I feel. And will probably become only more prevalent. I've been reading newsgroups and forums for a number of years, and it's impossible to discuss the blandest of topics without nuclear war escalating. (Original sin, you know.) The written word loses the nuances of physical conversation, and for whatever reason, we

Like many of you, I lead a small Bible study group every week. I'm a great believer in growing new leaders, so I frequently ask different members of the group to lead an inductive study. Of course, I help them with a little material from my Logos library--a commentary snippet here, the passage from a couple of other translations, a Bible dictionary

I recently preached Psalm 1. Its beginning in an accurate translation is fabulous, suggesting the process of walking, standing, and sitting in the way of wickedness. (Ps. 1:1) That preaches beautifully, as we show our listeners the spiritual restlessness of moving toward sin until we are settled in it--as against being "like a tree planted by streams

Very good discussion here, and very helpful. I didn't know about the Nelson Ultimate thing. I'm going to definitely look into that. I think most of you seem to agree with my point--we want our people to expand their borders into the riches of God's Word. We want them to become fully-fledged Bible Geeks like us, not as an end in itself but because it

[quote user="Bob Pritchett"] The problem is -- it doesn't work. [/quote] Yeah, yeah. I figured. Still, I think somewhere out there, maybe not even today, there is that "magic formula." The Ambassador program is the right approach for our niche, but it's designed to push expensive software because it's based on percentage. It isn't being coupled with

Quick addition: Also, I've been too dismissive of the Home package. Checking back on it, that's actually a pretty substantial collection for beginners. But if I show newcomers that one at $150 and the Nelson, with basic Libronix, at $20, I think I can predict what they're likely to choose. The Nelson has some filler and lacks some good stuff, but it

I agree with many of the sentiments here. As a former editor of a Christian magazine with 80,000 circulation, here is my feedback: 1) Much less fluff, as some have observed. I'm not that interested in how major league baseball players or Hollywood stars study the Bible. I had to do those articles, too, but in this case, I really don't think it's what
