How are resources chosen for a Bible word study?

Even though I have prioritized HALOT in my desktop software, and have synced it with my mobile phone, whenever I do a Bible word study on a Hebrew word from the Lexhan Hebrew-English Interlinear, the list of resources that displays includes CHALOT (Holladay) but never HALOT.

How do I make HALOT come up in the list of resources to do the word study on?

    Eric,

    If you have used advanced prioritization (explained in this article) for HALOT, that will not be recognized by the Mobile app.  The Mobile app only recognizes "normal" prioritization.

    That is my "best guess" as to what could be causing this situation, but of course I cannot be sure.

    No, I just used normal “Prefer these books:” for all my prioritized resources.

    It works as expected for me. This may seem dumb, but are you sure you prioritized the right HALOT? If you prioritized volume 5, which is the Aramaic one, and not the rest, obviously it will not help you on Hebrew words.

    I prioritized both volumes. There’s a technical glitch that won’t let me post a photo of it but they are both listed under prefer these books.

    Are they listed there above all of the other books?

    I placed it above CHALOT, but still only CHALOT comes up when I do a Bible Word Study in the mobile app.
