Logos will not search the Greek in Aristotle

I purchased Aristotle in Greek to search the Greek in reference to the NT and LXX but when I search words, it never shows any of my Aristotle texts as an option. What am I doing wrong? I can see the books themselves but when I search "Greek Classics" while in "Textual Search" it never searches any of my classic texts.

Hi Joshua

Can you provide an example of a word you are searching for - and ideally a screenshot (please use the paperclip icon)?

What I think you are describing is working for me

I searched in the same way and it says there is literally nothing but the commentary I am reading says that Aristotle uses this word a few times in several of his documents.

I just noticed that I do not even have the option to search Aristotle as you have. The only option that pops up is "Ad principem ineruditum (Greek)".

I answered in the other thread. It's better to keep the discussion in a single thread but I didn't see that there were two threads. Note that you are searching for Logos morphology coding - have you checked what morphology coding your Aristotle has?

Your screenshot seems to indicate that you selected only one book by Aristotle to search, the Greek text of "Ad principem...". That's the reason, I think, you get no result. If I do the search for that lemma in the web app against an ad-hoc collection, I get results but not in that book:

That's the problem. It doesn't give me any of the books I own as options. There is nothing in my "Custom Search"

I'm at a loss as to how you got in this situation. Can you show us a screenshot of Aristotle's works in your library? If they don't all show there, run "update now" as a command. If they do show, select them and make a collection of them using the information panel of the library. Then try a search on the collection name.

1. run command

2. red boxes show: selection by author, opening of information panel, (select all books by Cntrl+A), note that not all the books are downloaded, create collection, and results of the update now command

If you still aren't getting the right search, use the command reindex to rebuild you indexes. If that doesn't fix it, either you don't own the resources or Logos customer service may need to be involved.

MJ - had you noted that this issue seems to be related to the web app?
