I still wonder if I am the only one who gets this on the Mac???
Likewise wondering if other Logos 4 user(s) on Mac and/or PC are actively using this BHS resource with 1995 WTS morphology ?
Thankful for friendly discussion with Logos that added BHS resource with 1995 Westminster Theological Seminary (WTS) morphology (LLS:1.0.201 bhsmorph.lbxlls) to my library. Posted thread in Mac Beta forum => Bugs: 4.5c Beta 3 - BHS with 1995 WTS Morphology has issues that describes what is different between Mac and PC without offering comments about possibly why. Thankfully Logos developers can investigate to figure out technical details and interactions for the variety of issues.
Thankful for many Logos 4 Mac improvements, albeit => Feature Parity list has a number of known issues.

One idea for bug reporting is screen shot(s) and/or videos about what is happening, similar to PDF specifications being professionally used by Logos.

Personally have learned to use Preview in this forum editor before clicking Post. When sentences run together, have learned to click Compose, then HTML button in editor so can change division (div) to paragraph (p) because division tagging causes sentences to flow together.

I guess the screenshots, etc. went to the other post.
For the record, the Hebrew letters with the different endings are the Kaf, Mem, Nun, Fe (the form is a P or an F, except at the endings, it is always an F) and Tzadei. (There are a number of ways to spell the letters)
To sum up, my
(BHS) will display the above consonants erroneously, not give a definition for those words, and won't do a proper word study.My
(BHS/WIVU) will display the consonants correctly, and give a definitions, but not give proper word studies sometimes (I am still checking, It will not do it right for REMIYAH, but does seem to do it for others).And my
BHS Anderson Forbes works correctly (all of these on the Mac), that is will give the definitions, display the word properly on the Lemma, and give proper word studies.0 -

May I remind you that the BHS with 1995 WTS Morphology is no longer sold, has been superceded and is no longer supported. I would suggest that you get the current version. In any case, there is no point in continuing to complain about it.

Observation: Logos 4 Mac forum tends to focus on issues in stable Logos 4 Mac releases while Mac Beta discussions tend to focus on issues in beta Logos 4 Mac releases.
The screen shots in Beta thread replies => http://community.logos.com/forums/p/50791/374379.aspx#374379 and => http://community.logos.com/forums/p/50791/374382.aspx#374382 could have been added to this thread since stable Logos 4 Mac (4.5b SR-3) being used. For Bible Word Study with BHS/WIVU, looking forward to stable Logos 4.5c release.
Different Logos resources have different Hebrew Lemma coding conventions, which is an issue => Status: Hebrew Audio Pronunciations Pre-Pub Logos development is currently working on a complex solution to enable Hebrew Audio Pronunciations that is compatible with a number of lemma coding conventions.
Noticed thread => Bugs: 4.5c Beta 3 - BHS with 1995 WTS Morphology has issues has a reply by a Logos employee => http://community.logos.com/forums/p/50791/374443.aspx#374443
Vincent Setterholm said:I suggest you don't use the "1995 edition". In fact, I'd hide that resource so that you're never tempted to look at it again, along with (if you have them) the 3.5 and 4.0 versions of the Westminster database. Major changes to how we handle Hebrew were implemented around the time we shipped the 4.2 version, so digging into the older editions is like taking a time machine back to the Logos of 10 years ago, except worse, because back then we had a number of hacks in place to work around the limitations of not having some features we now take for granted.
If you have the 3.5 version, but not the 4.2, call sales: they can upgrade you for a mere $10. If all you have is the old un-numbered version with the file name BHSMORPH (which was version 2.0 of the Westminster database), then I'm not sure what upgrade pricing is, but give a call to sales. (If you have the 4.0, you should also have the 4.2 - no upgrade fee was necessary to get the minor version number updates.)
Concur with recommendation to contact Logos Sales => http://www.logos.com/about/contact
Thankful for Logos insights about BHS resources with older WTS 2.0, 3.5, and 4.0 morphologies plus upgrade options. Personally use older BHS resources for nostalgic comparisons (e.g. troubleshooting). Logos 4 English Reverse Interlinear Bible resources and Lexham Hebrew Interlinear use same morphology as "The Hebrew Bible: AFAT".Keep Smiling [:)]

Thank you for your great advice, Keep Smiling for Jesus!
I will do the thing with sales, that is the info I really needed. The thing you said about the previous engine makes sense.
Thank you. [8-|]

Anyone has a 3.5 to spare? [:P]

Are you serious? You know that would require a $20 transfer fee by itself bringing the cost of upgrade to 4.2 to $30.

4.2 costs $99.95. [;)]
But given the Forum Guidelines I guess I can't be serious, can I? [:P][:(]

I would suggest first contacting a sales rep to see what kind of deal he can offer (whoever it is who wishes 4.2).

In the PC the lemma correctly displays as רמיה and the Mac version's lemma shows רםיה !!!
The letter is the correct letter, the Mem (the Hebrew M). But the form is the ending form of Mem.[...]
Something happens with the Mac version that changes the letter in the lemma to the ending!
The issue with the "mem" character you describe has been fixed in the next update.
