Thanks, Dave. I am going to give it a try now.
Thanks Dave. Great update. All my offline books updated without a problem.
Quicker download! Still have trouble with layout of text. In the Christian's Secret of a Holy Life I used to get the title and date overlapping each other. They are still that way before I download and there is no title/date at all once I download. I get the same thing with Exploring the New Testament. The outline for the chapter being discussed, like Colossians, has the title overwriting the chapter/verse references. When I download I lose the outline. All I get is "Outline" but nothing under it.

Kaye, thanks for the feedback. Before downloading a book, things will look as they did with 1.4; it's after downloading that the new layout code takes over. I am not seeing the same thing as you when I test Christian's Secret of a Holy Life or Exploring the New Testament on my devices. I see the title and date on the first and the online on the second. What type of device are you using? And do you know what OS version you have?
Does 1.5 work on the iPad?
It does work on the iPad.
I can verify that Lexham Discourse Greek New Testament now lays out correctly.
Nice work on this update, I am excited to see what is coming down the road at us. Keep up the good work. [Y]

I tried this and, for what it's worth. I experienced the same symptoms with Christian's Secret... before download, but it displays properly having downloaded it. iPhone 4
Hi all,
Anyone having problems with the new app exiting upon startup for resources that are available offline? Seems with the MacArthur study bible resource (NAS version and loaded offline), the app will start, then exit as it tries to load the page from that resource. If the resource is not available offline, it works ok (will load the page) Other resources seem to work ok offline, but not the MAC NAS one.
I removed the app (the only way to get it working again), and reconfigured. Seems to work ok as long as "that" resource is not made available offline (from my simple test case).
Others having similar problem with other offline resources (causing the app to exit)?
Curious,
Paul
With doc not stored for offline use. As you said, the layout is still weird.
Same section after I store it for offline use. The day's title and date are missing.
Sorry, it took me a bit to find out how to make the screenshot!

Yes, that resource crashes the app for me too.
Why does everything take even longer than before? It is really slow. I removed and reinstalled the app. Could it be trying to sync? I wanted to download the ESV, but it would not let me... I type in a title in the library that used to come up quickly is now taking over a minute...Please advise.
John, I wondered the same thing, and figured that it was because everyone and his brother were all trying to do the same thing at the same time... using up all of the available bandwidth. Just my thought.
Known Issues Downloading very large books, e.g. ESV Study Bible, on devices other than iPhone 4 may cause the app to crash
I suppose there is not a fix to this problem until the next release? The Holman Bible Atlas crashes every time after 10 minutes of downloading.
If your primary Bible has been downloaded, but not updated for version 1.5, Bible reference popups will not display correctly
I don't quite understand this one. My primary Bible is CUV (Chinese Union Version). The CUV itself displays beautifully (thanks!) but Bible reference popups are still using the old larger font and the sentences are still cut off because of incorrect formatting. I have the iPad, am on iOS 4.2.1, and Logos 1.5. What else do I have to do to get my Bible reference popups to display correctly in Chinese?
Thanks!
Peter
p.s. The painful re-downloads of 460+ books finally finished last night.

I don't quite understand this one
This referred to non-updated Bibles displaying a null error. It's a separate issue to yours, which I guess is a bug.
Dave - maybe I ave missed this, but is it possible to do a clean install of the Logos App on Ipad - removing all downloaded volumes to start again. I have 1600 books downloaded - now with better of idea for using (invaluable) I could remove the books and reinstal, say 100: I need a quick and easy method ... can it be done?

Just completely uninstall the app, then re-install it. To do this, press and hold on the icon, until the icons start jumping around. Then press the X to delete.
Thanks for that - I thot that would remove just the app and not the books. great and thank you!
Colin, I believe that the easy way would be to have a collection set up on the desktop and let the app find it and then sync it to your device. I have advocated this for a while now, but have never heard any one else think that this would be a good idea. Many want all of their books on the device, however, I like you have found that this is not needed... I hope that Dave will be able to help us out on this one in the very near future!
I have advocated this for a while now, but have never heard any one else think that this would be a good idea.
I back you! It would be much easier than click the little slider on a few hundred resources.

Me too.
That has been my point all along, and it would also make it easy to change the books as well!

I'm with you. Great idea!
Jonathan, now to get the team at Logos to agree! LOL
Cannot get my Bible Reading Plan to sync with my iPad with 1.5.0.
Using NASB95 Bible. Tried deleting plans, re-adding, deleting the app, re-signing in, hitting the sync button on the computer-- all to no avail.
This is very frustrating since I do almost all my devotional reading on my iPad. Anyone else having this issue??? Any ideas on resolving would be much appreciated!
How long have you waited? The Logos servers are apparently rather overloaded at the moment, and syncing reading plans in taking a while.
Anywhere from an hour to a day. All that I get on the iPad is the basic "Read the Bible in a Year" reading plan. It used to work fine with my last two reading plans but for some reason I cannot get it synced to the iPad. The Reading Plan on the computer is tracking fine.
My custom reading plans are no longer showing up. The iPhone app just shows the standard reading plan to read the Bible in one year. The reading plans are still on my Logos 4 desktop. The bummer is that the custom reading plans are the main reason I use the Logos software. I read in the morning before i get out of bed. I am very disappointed by this bug in the software. Unfortunately, the other bugs I and others reported previously are still not fixed. If Laridian or Olive Tree had custom reading plans for their mobile software, I would use those and remove Logos from my iPod Touch.
A very disappointed customer,
Steve
Steve, do you see your books in the library, more than just the 60-some all users get? If not, check that you're signed in. You can also try signing out and signing in again. I don't usually recommend that unless there's a problem with the app recognizing that you're signed in.
Any idea when they are going to fix the NASB MacArthur Study Bible? Fortunately, I also have the NKJV version so I can still use it offline.
