Do you expect pre-pub orders to process today? Do we just restart the software for the update to begin?
Thanks for the help!

On my previous orders after you receive the email notification that the purchase has been processed, the resource will download as soon as you restart the program

Fred,
You do need to wait for email notification saying that the order was processed in order for the download to begin. As soon as you get that email, the resource should start downloading to your computer.

That's what I figured; I was patiently impatiently [;)] waiting then the email cam and I'm downloading now.

OK, who's job is it to hit the processing key? I'm telling Bob, he could be making good money! Only kidding, thought I'd come home to read through it a tad. Hey, what's a few more hours? [:'(] Have to cut the grass anyway before it rains here.

For taking as long as it did to get the ESV Study Bible to Logos, I'm surprised it seems to be missing functionality I would expect to see. That's not to say I'm ungrateful, but Logos has just spoiled us with the inter-linking of material, popups/popovers, etc. in the texts.
For example, page 1790 in the ESV Study Bible has the Herodian Dynasty. The text is miniscule even on a 24" monitor running 1920x1200 (Reading View). I don't see a way to zoom into the image. I also would expect that the Scripture references in the image to contain popups of those verses. Granted, I understand this is an image; one that could be rendered easily (it seems) to allow for textural links.
Granted this is a small quibble, but it should be doable. Am I expecting too much from Logos?

When I started Logos today, it started a 453 MB download. I only bought the study notes, as I have the ESV already.
I have not received any emails about it.
So is the ESV SB what's downloading? I sure wish this thing would tell you what it was downloading.

I had the 453MB download and then an additional 240MB download.
I agree, it would be nice to know what was downloading.

See: An update is downloading, what is it
Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you. 0 -
I'm wondering how long it takes to process the order?

You'll get the email once they have charged your credit card. After that you can use Update Now to download the new resource. Until you get the email you won't be able to get the resource.

Past experience says that order fulfillment can take quite a few hours. Some will have a resource as much as a day before others (the Tyndale Commentary was an example of this).
There are just so many electrons in the computers in Bellingham and once they are gone they have to wait to reload them to process more orders. The truck is on the way! [;)]

There a few occasions where my order has sat stuck on live for three or more days and I have had to e-mail customer services to get them to push the order through... hopefully that won't occur this time.

I was pretty sure all the pre-orders were on individual punch cards and they had to feed them through a "computer". That was only after the electron shipment arrives from Walla Walla.
*edit* leaking this info may have just meant my card got moved to the bottom of the stack... [:'(]

Still waiting for my email too. Can anyone who has it verify whether it can be used on the iPhone/iPad? I sure hope so after the Bible Knowledge Commentary was taken down...

I got my email a while ago, but had to issue the "Update Now" command to actually start the download. Once started, it came pretty fast.

Some appetisers... just need the license now....
Andrew,
Sort of off topic, but can you tell me how to find this "About Resource" window?
I remember how to do it on Logos 3, but can't seem to figure it out on Logos 4!
Thanks!

On the upper right side of the tab you should see a circle with a small letter "i." Click on that.

Thanks Richard, I had checked that earlier but it didn't seem to have the amount of information that Andrew's screen shots displayed.
Are there just differences between Logos 3 and 4 regarding the "About Resource" page?

Yeap Logos 3 displays much more info.. the official word from Logos was along the lines of Logos 4 just works and we don't need to know all that info......

How do you go to a specific page?
I had the ESV Bible already. So I bought just the ESV notes. I downloaded and it was indexed.
As it appears on my screen, the ESV Bible is in one panel, and the ESV notes are below it (I had to manually open it...not sure if it can be linked).
I don't see a way to move to any specific page number though.*edit*
Don't know if this is the most efficient way, but I just turned on the page numbers, then scrolled and page up/down until I found the page you are referring to. Surely there's a better way.
Anyway, I see the image you are referring to. I agree that it is horrible "as-is". I downloaded/saved it as a separate file then opened it in an image view at normal size. At normal size it is readable. But in the program itself, w/o being able to zoom in, it's utterly useless.
Is there any way to zoom in pictures? Or are we stuck having to use a program other than Logos 4 to use some of the data in Logos 4 (which IMO...is very poor development).0 -

I've been playing around with this by way of watching some of the Logos 4 Video Tutorials from the Wiki.
If you click in your ESV's top left corner you can assign it a letter. Then do the same with your ESV notes and when you scroll the Bible the notes should keep up with you.

Procedure would be same with ESV SB just make sure you set them both to same link set
This is a mocked up screen shot I created a few days ago, and includes a second study bible but the result you should get will be similar to. Notice how each resource has the link set 'A' showing up on its cover icon. This means they will scroll together via the current bible reference.

Was able to link it. Works great. Thanks guys.
I've not gone through all of the videos yet so I'm behind a little it seems.
Now...is there a video that shows how to fix minuscule images in the books (see my above post).
*edit*
It appears that the images scale to the window. That is, if you need the image to be larger, you have to decrease the width of other columns so that the column in question is wide enough to fit the image. It'd be nice if there was a zoom feature, but I guess this will do until such a feature is implemented.

The big 450MB+ download consists of updates to Biblical Places, Things, People.
Maybe they got Salome right this time.
I haven't received my ESVSB e-mail yet, either. [imitating Gomer Pyle] "That just ain't fayer!"
EDIT 10 minutes later: Whined too soon; downloading 240MB now.

The above snippet was taken in Reading View (F11) at 1920x1200. You can see a small bit of normal sized text at the top with the image at the bottom; and you can see how it is far from readable.
Hopefully, this can be addressed by Logos post-release.
