Internet links to do not connect to the internet in Logos 4

I am new to Logos. I am not sure if it is just me not being able to find the right place in the settings or not.

Whenever I try connecting to one of the internet links whether it be Logos.com or some other site such as sermonaudio.com it will not connect? Is this because I have Firefox as my default browser when Logos asks for Internet Explorer? or is there something else I am missing.

When I click it does not even leave Logos Bible program it just does nothing!

Thanks for the help!

Jason,

Can you give more detail?

What are you specifically doing to try and connect to the internet? Notes? Shortcut bar?

Post a description and screen shot if possible....

For Instance if I am on the home page and I want to click on the link that says Logos4: Highlight a word or phrase with a visual filter. I will click on the link and it will just stay in logos. It will not send me to the actual internet to read the rest of the topic. Or let's say I am doing research on Luke 2 in the exegetical guide and go to the point where it says powerpointsermons.com and I want to click on the powerpoint that says "O Holy Night" whenever I click on any external link, Logos does nothing. Here is a picture of the "O Holy Night" screen.

Jason,

I wouldn't know what to say...you are now obviously connected to the internet, let me ask:

Have you by accident turned off "use the internet" in the programs panel?

Tools>Program settings>use internet

Other than something like I wouldn't know what to say.....sorry.

It is not that I cannot connect to the internet on my own, but I cannot connect to the internet via Logos. IF Logos has a internet link in it, it will not let me go to that link

My internet use says. that it is on.

Hi Jason, I have the same problem at times with Sermoncentral, but it's sporadic... at first I thought it was a bad link and moved on. Then the next day I thought to test the sermoncentral site again to hear a Spurgeon sermon and it worked! Great Sermon, though I don't think it was actaully Spurgeon [;)] *humor* I'm thinking that its due to my systems limitations, which will probably be fixed as soon as somone buys me that new i7 system. I have a Pentium 4 with 3 GB RAM, with a cable connection to the internet. It also seems that when I do a reboot, things work better for a time.

Not saying this is your problem, but thoght it was similar to mine.

I'm having the same problem. I just put Parallels on my Mac and downloaded L4. The sermoncentral.com and sermonaudio sections are grey and have no results. The powerpointsermons and sermons.logos both work.

Any ideas?

I just got this resolved yesterday afternoon. It is actually the problem with your internet browser and nothing to do with LOGOS itself! It dealt with whether or not your browser was set at default. I am a user of Firefox and what I did was go to Tools> Options> General. On the general tab there is at the bottom a place that says check now, click that and the it will set Firefox as your default. I know it will be different for each web browser. If that does not work let me know. I have one more tech trick up my sleeve!

Hope that helps!

go to Tools> Options> General

I think this should be Tools>Options>Advanced>General.

Well, I'm running L4 on a Mac using parallels and IE is the only browser intalled on that side of the machine. So it can't be a browser conflict.

Actually, the problem looks to be a bit random. Sometimes I get the audio sermon section to work and the Logos sermon section doesn't work. Other times it's the opposite. But either way, sermoncentral.com never works.
