Any word on when books might get the ability to sync with your desktop.
Hi Randy
In what way do you want them to sync. Those books that are available for the iOS can be used either on line or off line if downloaded.
Are you referring to Personal Books (PBs)? If so, I personally haven't heard about when they will be synced with iOS devices, although others may be able to shed some light on this.
This is definitely a feature I would look forward to in future updates.

The primary issue with personal books is that an exponentially larger amount of data would need to be kept by Logos. Currently, the metadata (a small amount of data) syncs between your desktop computers for PBB's, but the actual books themselves (a large amount of data) do not. Bob has said that he plans to allow users to sync this data at some point, but there is no telling when that might be. It could be months or years.
Sorry for not being clear Mike. I want to be able to read from a resource I have in my Logos library- for example Spurgeon's Autobiography- on my desktop, save it on page xx, open Spurgeon's Autobiography on my iPad and find it on the same page I saved on my desktop.

It does this to some extent now… kind of. For example… Open a book you have been reading on your mobile device/desktop on biblia.com. You should find that it has turned to the page you were viewing on your mobile device / desktop. I have found this to work as well with the desktop & mobile apps unless the resource was already open in both places. For example, I was reading a new book today on my iPhone. I just opened it on biblia.com & my desktop. Both opened to the chapter I was about to begin. On the other hand, my iPad opened to the ESV. The book & chapter was NOT what I had left off on using my iPhone app. I assume that this is because the local setting took precedence. I guess it could be a sync error instead, but that is what my experience has been.
