syncing faith life reading plan with Logos 5

I have followed the directions to sync these 2 but when I am in Logos 5 it is not doing what your tutorial says. It finally started bringing up the start here header but the faith life notes are not anywhere to be found. It doesn't seem to work at all like it did in just faith life. Also I thought anything that was a note in the faith life bible would open but instead it is saying I don't own those so of course it won't open them. This makes the information incomplete. One of the things was Asherah. Most of the notes went to "information that it said I didn't have"  I have lots of resources I do have the silver version with the cross grade upgrade. 

I do have a group set up and I am in the plan. I have started it over several times to see if that would help but it does not.

    Hi Terry - welcome to the forums.

    I'm struggling to understand exactly what you mean. Can you clarify things a little please?

    To which direction and which tutorial are you referring?

    What is the reading plan for? Assuming it is not for the FSB notes then it wouldn't bring them up. The reading plan is just for the resource not for anything associated with it.

    Do you mean in "faithlife" as in the community or in the "faithlife study bible app"?

    This is how the FSB works. It provides first-level information which is accessible to everyone and then has the option of going deeper. Some of these deeper references are to the "Lexham Bible Dictionary" (which is included with the FSB app) and others are to a range of encyclopedia, dictionaries and other resources. Users have the option to purchase these resources to enable them to have access to this further information.

    The references in the FSB notes do point to some resources which are not included in the packages you mention - such as "Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary" and "Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels". Resources which you don't own are indicated by a "lock" symbol.

    Hope this helps but if you can clarify further what you are expecting and the problems you are having we may be able to comment more fully.
