Is it possible to install another copy of Logos on my Mac?

Sean

I'd like to setup a separate copy of Logos on my Mac that just uses an account with Logos Premium (and ignores my large library on my main account) so I can prepare and demonstrate for a small group study how they can leverage Logos.

Is it possible to do this side-by-side, or do I have to setup a virtual machine?

Logos supports multiple user accounts. Click the profile icon in the lower-left of the main window and choose "New user".

No need to install Verbum, no need to set up a separate local macOS user account.

Actually, I ignored your requirement for a separate Logos user account, which @Bradley Grainger (Logos) picked up. You can run another Logos account within your current Logos installation as he suggests (the Profile/Account icon will be Top right if you have the main Toolbar on Top). But first create the new Logos account at logos.com and ignore any suggestion to install Logos.

You can switch between your Logos accounts from the Account icon, and it is fast!

@Sean — I don't think so. There is a program called Verbum that is mainly Catholic in nature, but produced by Logos that I understand you can download and run with Logos kind of side by side.

I would love to see whereby we could run multiple instances of Logos on our machines. This would be especially helpful for people who have multiple monitors. I have long asked for it but … well Logos has other priorities.

You cannot run Logos side by side, so you need a different Mac User account or a virtual machine.

I run Logos and Verbum side by side but you will probably get some temporary books from the Verbum Free Library on installation, and they also go into Logos.

Actually a separate Mac user account could work fine for my purposes! Do you know if there would be any issues with fast user switching? It would be nice if I could keep up my full Logos on one user if I wanted to show something about the Max sub or other resources, but I could use the other account to primarily use for teaching.
