I've tried searching the forum for this direct answer, but can't seem to find it.  I just purchased the Word Biblical Commentary Series on CD and want to install it directly into Logos 4.  When I insert the CD it asks me if I want to install Libronix and I clicked no, then nothing happens.  So then I clicked yes and it loads Libronix, but I don't want the books in there, I want them in Logos 4.  Do I have to use the intermediary Libronix each time I enter a CD?  So far, I haven't figured out how they get into Logos 4.

Someone please help me.  Thank you.

    To answer your question: "For now, yes and no." We are in a time of transition between Libronix and Logos4. During this time there will be some resources that can only be unlocked through Libronix (or by calling Logos Support), and then imported into Logos4. If you install via Libronix (rather than by calling Logos support), the resources must be unlocked in Libronix and the licenses synced with the same Logos ID you use in Logos4, but they don't have to be moved to the Libronix resource folder for Logos4 to pick up the license and download the files from it servers.

    Note that it can take some time for the Logos servers, together with your system, to see the license and download it to your computer. Users have reported needing to restart Logos4 2 or more times before a download started. Typing update now into the command bar will also check for license updates to the Logos servers - but that can also take some time to actually work.

    There are a few other reasons to keep Libronix on your machine for now, including the upcoming import of notes, which will probably require running a command from Libronix to prepare the notes to be imported into Logos4.

    Thank you.  I had read that post about the Update now that you had posted in another thread, so I had already done that to no avail.  I may just call on Monday, though I was hoping not to have to do that as I know their phone lines are so busy now.

    I don't have Libronix on this machine, but will go ahead and load it again since I un-installed it from earlier today when loading the commentary set.
