Question About Clippings

I just noticed something about clippings and wanted to validate that my understanding is correct.

I created a clippings file with a few excerpts from one of the courses that I had temporary access to as part of my subscription.

Today I went to sue them to finish a study that I had started and found the clippings file was empty.

I'm guessing that the clippings have gone because the license has expired.

Has any one experienced this behaviour?

    That's funny.

    That'd be my guess as well.  I hadn't thought about that issue. This is one of the reasons I ranted against "Logos Now" and whatever else they called it when it rolled out. Welcome to the world of rented resources. [:(]

    That isn't my understanding, but did you have any Notes with the clippings, as these are personal?

    I can't find a note that I took, TBH I can't remember if I did create a note from the text. Be interested to know if either does or should work.

    I meant Notes that you can add to the Clipping, but notes you created in the Notes Tool should also be preserved.

    You might want to take this up with Customer Support (and let us know!).

    Understood what you meant Dave, I will explore this further and kept you know if I find out anything.
