This seems a little early after Beta 3. What is the reason?

This is a pretty normal release schedule for us. Were you expecting Beta 4 this week? We made a change last year to add an extra week for internal testing, which meant that there is one fewer beta before we switch to RC 1.

Alan did not mean a literal Beta 5, but was referring to the 5th release in the Beta cycle. We usually only release a version with a Beta 5 when we have an unusually long Beta cycle.

Tried this version and still hanging. Delete all the folders started fresh on another user account on the Mac and stuck at "preparing books and dataset" I am afraid for the public release that I may be stuck without access. Ok I just checked it is still 327 can you provide a link for this version

Andrew, I have difficulty understanding that something assumed to be in (beta) 4, and then expected to be in beta 5 ("Let me know if you still see it in beta 5" after being "edited to say beta 5") should not be taken literally!

Dave, not all employees are intimately familiar with the versioning mechanisms used in the beta cycle. Even I had forgotten that we had switched from 4 Betas and 2 RCs to 3 and 3.
Often times when I want to mention that a fix is coming soon I'll intentionally avoid giving a specific beta number exactly so I won't get caught up in this kind of problem, but not everyone has as much experience in this area.
I think it's best to chalk this up to a miscommunication and trust the intended message ("beta 5" is equivalent to the fifth release in the beta cycle), unless you have some specific concern.

I picked it up on Beta 2 and have been enjoying the new Bible Smart Search and have used it several times.
Today, it said I had 3 uses as a preview. Once I used all three it told me I needed to subscribe. I hit the link and it said I was subscribed.
I am signed in and it shows that at the bottom left.
I restarted the program. No luck; it won't let me use Bible Smart Search anymore.
p.s. It updated to 40.0.345 today and that's when it started happening.

Yup, now beta testers have to patiently wait along with everyone else. Lucky for us, the functionality will be back in less than a week. See the thread below for an explanation:

Aaron - I missed that! Thanks for pointing it out.
Well, rats. I was really getting used to it.

The "5th Beta" went astray when Beta 3 went to RC1, which I now understand is the 4th Beta (I was not aware that you had switched from 4 and 2 to 3 and 3).
