Re; NASB 2020 and PNTC James (second edition) in desktop app

Today I received an email telling me that the NASB 2020 and PNTC James (second edition) which I had purchased in pre-pub were available to download.

I was able to download these titles to my iPad but when I tried to download them to my Mac desktop App I got a message saying this publication is not currently available on this device. 

Am I trying too early? The email doesn't make any mention of this "not currently available" status.

Both titles show up in a library search, but I notice that under "devices" in the information pane there is no check box available next to my Mac Book Pro as there is next to my other devices.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    I just sounds like you need to download the resource. A good number of users begged for "skinny" installations, so it is now possible to have your installation set to not download all new (and updated) resources. It sounds like that is the case for you.

    As JT suggested, it sounds like your computer hasn't updated yet. You can reboot logos or type "update resources" into the finder box at top and let it do its magic. That would at least get it showing in the library menu.  From there you can download them by looking at the information screen or going into settings and setting it to download all.

    Edit: I misread your earlier post as it seems they are already showing in your library screen

    Thanks.  In the past everything has always downloaded automatically on re-boot of the app. That's why I was confused.  I re-booted repeatedly before I posted, I also attempted to download manually but to no avail. It said downloading but never arrived.  I was able to download in IOS on phone and tablet. 

    Anyway it's morning here so I tried a re-boot again and HUZZAR, they came all by themselves. 

    Glitch in the matrix I suppose 

    In my haste to re-boot I didn't try the  "update resources" method, I suspect that would have worked.  Logos is an enjoyable but steep learning curve.

    thanks for your replies.
