Copying Library to Logos 4

Brian Mackey

Hello all, I have been using Libronix/Logos for many years and recently updated to Logos 4. The program recognized me account and what books I should have, but did not let me choose to install the files myself. I do not want to download several gigs worth of files that are already on my system, is there any way I can simply move the files into the new resource path (which I can't seem to find)  or does Logos 4 use different files types and so is not compatible?

Thanks

Mark Smith

Brian, welcome to the world of Logos 4 fun.

The answer is that most of the resources you have will have a Logos 4 format file. That may not mean much and your old Logos format files will work on Logos 4, but it does want to download new versions and if you don't do it now, it will just keep on trying to update what you have (unless you choose to stay off-line with Logos 4).

In addition you will need to download the Reverse Interlinears as the old ones don't work in Logos 4. There are also new databases, and if you upgraded a collection, new resources.

The bottom line is: go ahead and let Logos 4 do the download unless you are on a monthly download quota or have a very slow Internet connection. In that case you can contact Logos about a DVD with the resources in the Logos 4 collection you upgraded to.

Be prepared for a long indexing session as well, once the resources are in Logos (time depends on the number of resources you have).
