To change file and folder ownership from "root admin" to "Mark staff" within
~/.config
folder (in Mark's home directory): in Terminal, please run this sudo (super user do) chown (change ownership) command with -R (recursive) option:sudo chown -R Mark:staff /Users/Mark/.config
Note: the sudo command prompts for password to verify authorization to become root (super user). As root, using path to Mark's home directory since ~ is a shortcut to the current user's home directory.
To verify ownership change in Terminal, please run this list (ls) command:
ls -alR ~/.config
After ownership changed, please try logging into Logos 4 Mac.

Thanks for that. I changed the command instead to
sudo chown -R Mark /Users/Mark/.config
It's all working now.
On a completely separate matter - do you do any freelance work. We have a small office with an all mac setup. We have had problems with file permissions on each computer for the purposes of sharing. I was wondering if we could pay you to look at our logs and assist us in making sure we have all the file permissions set up correctly.
If that's of interest to you feel free to email me mark (at) mrassociates (dot) org
Once again, thanks for your help.

During one of the past updates I started having the logon problem also on my desktop I will try these fixes and see if it works. Funny thing though is I have the same updates on my laptop and have never had the logon issue.

I began having this log in issue as well a couple of weeks ago. I too get the "Unable to change file mode..." message. Can someone walk me through the fix. I am unable to do it from the above info.
Thanks

Wonder about Logos 4 Mac version ? Perhaps use steps => Update Error to manually update Logos 4 Mac application.
Curious about diagnostic log content; wiki Mac Troubleshooting => How to Report Bugs in Logos 4 Mac includes link to 5504.Logos4MacLogging.app.zip (display logging setting, then optionally change); also links to Logos Log Scribe (create zip file of Logging folder with copy of console messages)
Other option is contacting Logos Mac Support => http://www.logos.com/about/contact With your permission, Logos can connect with desktop sharing (Monday thru Friday).

Thanks to everyone that helped.....issue solved.

I'm having this problem also and have had it for some time now. Just wondering why there has not been a simple answer posted here to such a simple issue. Every other app builder in existence does this without a problem but for some reason this is an unanswerable issue here. Why no options to keep logged in or a place in the app to store your user information and a check box to say whether you want auto log-in or not. Is it really that difficult or just not worth the time?

Dennis, I can't really answer your question, but I can tell you that my issue was a permissions issue that Anton repaired by remote login. Give Customer Service a call and see what they can do for you. They were very helpful and were able to fix the problem. I wish I had called them back in June when the problem first started presented itself.
Good Luck and God Bless!

Observation: Logos 4 on Mac and PC does store Logos.com user account and password information.
If Program Settings => Use Internet is Yes, then Logos 4 does an automatic login each time program is launched (allows security certificates to be updated). Caveat: folder and file permissions can interfere with automatic login. Occasionally Logos servers are unavailable (seem to remember a login issue for many hours one day).
If Program Settings => Use Internet is No, then Logos 4 works offline (using resource licenses downloaded during a previous connection).

I wrote this up to complete all the posts for those of us with problems the easy way.
First thing in a word processor change
Your username
the username of your computer.When you type into Terminal:
chmod 700 ~/.config/.mono/keypairs
If you
obtain the results:chmod: Unable to change file mode on /Users/Your username/.config/.mono/keypairs: Operation not permitted
You will need to first type in:
sudo chown -R Your username /Users/Your username/.config
Hit return. You have signed in as
the superuser, or root user.Next type in:
ls -alR
and hit return.
~/.config
You will not see anything happen but it has.Next type in:
ls -ld ~
and hit return. You will not see anything happen
but it has.Next type in:
ls -ld ~/.mono
and hit return. You will not see anything happen
but it hasNext type in:
ls -ld ~/Document
and hit return. You will not see anything happen
but it hasThe next time you login, it will be the last time you will
use your login and password. Then quit Logos. The next time you start Logos,
all your woes will disappear.0 -
This worked for me. Thanks!
