I am new to Logos and installed the application and downloaded the resources on a computer my wife I am use, but under her login. When I went to my own login the resources were not visible. All I had was the open application. How do I make the resources available by the both of us?

    The simple answer is that you can't.  Logos installs itself in a particular user's home folder, so it is not accessible to you on your account.  The application can install itself in your home folder, but will download and index the resources again.

    By design, default configuration for different users on same computer is different set of Logos 4 resources, which includes logos library login, layouts, notes, and other sync items. With group membership, sticky bits, links, and file system permissions, technically possible to share a Logos 4 library between user accounts - be careful to not launch Logos 4 in both accounts at same time on computer. Several months ago, was sharing Logos 4 between different bootable partitions with same account while investigating case sensitive and insensitive differences.  Thanks to Logos developers for fixing case sensitive issues (exception handler), no longer sharing.

    Observation: older Logos for Mac 1.2.2 does use 1 set of resources - shared across accounts:
