I am running L3 and the Beta L4 on my desktop machine. Last night I had finally finished with all B4 updates and multiple reindexing.So I thought I would be good for the weekend. I then recieved two unlocks in an Email for a couple of prepubs I had ordered, To be safe I did not install the unlocks or syncronize my L3 license file on my desktop. I thought I was safe from L4 finding the new unlocks but this morning when I started up L4 it recognized my new titles and begin preparing my library and then once more reindexing everthing!

Is L4 getting my license from Logos already? For some reason I didn't think it was happening at that level yet.

    If you buy a "DOWNLOAD", it's unlocked on your account—and thus available to Logos 4—as soon as your credit card is charged. If you buy it on CD, it's unlocked on your online account once you activate the serial number on the product. (Synching your licenses in LDLS3 actually does nothing on the server in both these cases.)

    Bradley, how does the resource get imported into Logos 4? On one of my machines I have the resource because I ran the v3 updater script emailed to me. But on the other computer I don't have the resource. If I were to just manually go to the website to download it, where do I save it to? Is it supposed to automatically download?
