    This new update destroys "copy Bible verses" and "replace with passage" which has been up to now available from the Mac Services menu.  Seems we fix one thing and break another. Am reverting back to previous version.  (Fortunately I made a backup with Carbon Copy Cloner prior to applying the update.)

    In Christ,

     The services are not broken for me. What version did you upgrade from? Several months ago they did change the services and you have to re-apply them in the System preferences

    The last version before 6.13 had been crashing on startup many times a day. Sometimes it never got to the newspaper view. Sometimes it crashes 4 or 5 times before it gets fully up and stable. Sometimes part crashes but it looks like it was up - but clicking on a button does nothing and I had to force quit to get out. This new version has not crashed yet. Many thanks. You appear to have fixed something very important in my Mac installation.

    Copy Bible Verses works fine for me to Word, on the Mac, but replace with passage does not show up - I have gone into the prefs and uncheck/rechecked it (there is only one entry there), restarted Verbum, logged out and in on the Mac. It does not show up to use for Pages or Word.

    I also notice that my index access is faster and more responsive. Also in Copy Bible Verses, it works for me as before, but with the added plus that when I do an inline search on a Bible that is linked to CPV, I can click on those found verses and they load to CPV. This did not work this way before. This is great.

    They are indeed broken: Word 2011, Pages 5.6.1, running El Capitan 10.11.5.  Sorry, I don't remember what version of Logos 6 I upgraded from but it was the latest prior to this last update. The only service that remains is "Open Bible verses"; and yes that still works.  The Replace with Passage is one we use quite frequently and that is no longer available in Word or Pages.  This has occurred before when Logos was updated and a follow on update had to be issued.  I have voiced my opinion before that these updates seemingly are not completely tested prior to being released. [:(]

    Woa! Thanks guys. I hadn't used this feature for years and had forgotten how to access it with MS Word on my Windows machine. It used to be associated with something called "Smart tags". It's such a useful feature. I hope you can get it back working on your Mac, Charles
