Hebrew Alphabet Updated Video for Download

Hi Mike, it looks like the link is dead... It is bringing up an error message.

[edit: sorry, Mark, you beat me to it... I now see that they give you guys the sheriff stars for a reason... Quick on the draw.]

Perhaps its just me, but the link is not functioning.

The "gibberish" comes from copying and pasting text from MS Word (there's a lot of hidden formatting stuff that comes over with a paste and this stuff leaks through. To get rid of it you'd have to edit the HTML.... more work than i'ts worth in my estimation)

You could also paste it into Notepad first, which doesn't take in HTML but plain text, and then copy/paste from there into the forum. Or you could just compose the message in the forum editor; it's not great but it's fine for simple paragraphs and bulleted or numbered lists. Or else don't worry about it. Most of us have gotten used to seeing that gibberish line from time to time and we ignore it.

no idea where the line of gibberish came from above the upload link. Reminds me of why I don't do forums!

Use the paste from Word icon in the forum editor to avoid
gibberish.

Here is what happens when you don't use the paste from Word option/icon in the forum editor to avoid
gibberish.

I want to apologize for the errors in the videos. This is a new type of product for us, and we didn't have an established process in place.

Understood. 

Bob Pritchett said:

I can assure you that we believe in putting out a quality product no matter what format it is -- software or content -- and we'll be addressing this (and our processes) immediately.

I have no doubts about that - thanks for jumping in, Bob.

If video products are going to be a regular part of Logos' offerings you might want to consider using The Teaching Company ( teach12.com ) as a model. According to a recent catalog which I've since discarded they employ an editorial process before and after the filming and use multiple takes to eliminate errors in their recordings.

Bob, 

Just for the record--and to add a positive voice to SO MANY OTHERS, I have been following the forum discussions closely since the release of the Learn to Use... videos. In spite of the rather major "oops" affiliated with this product (and I added a few words of straightforward but hopefully/prayerfully not overly or overtly negative comments myself [June 25, 9:10am]), the MOST ENCOURAGING thing I have read or seen is your direct personal comments in the forum. I cannot say how much this encourages me and sustains my faith in you (and Logos). Please accept my utmost appreciation. I feel like I cannot say too loudly that It is your personal engagement with both the product and the customers that makes me such a firm supporter of Logos Bible Software. When you say it, I am absolutely confident that it will, as long as humanly possible, be done. We all owe that to you.

I hope you have not had too many frantic moments. There are issues to be addressed, but you are the one who can--and I sincerely believe--will address them. Please know that I/we urge you on.

Link still doesn't work for me

Nor me.

My understanding is that will not be the link where it is eventually posted. Mike mistakenly posted an internal link that we don't have access to, so someone in Marketing is supposed to move the files to somewhere else we do have access to and give us a NEW link, so it won't help to keep trying the old one.

I don't know what is taking so long. I know the fixed Hebrew one is done. Haven't heard anything about the Greek one yet.

Sorry ... , couldn't help myself. But then again, maybe I am just venting

Venting is allowed - Ephesians 4:26

Jack Caviness said:

You can vent longer if you start early in the morning.

Hey, I never thought of that - I will have to start practicing that tomorrow AM.  Just don't tell my wife, I want it to be a surprise.[:)]

Rosie Perera said:

The Church calendar has a special season just for that. It's called Ad-vent.  (Ba-dum-bum!)  And now I'm going to have to re-Pentecost for that bad pun. Oh, I'm just re-Lentless with these. Sorry.

You're really ascending to new heights.

Michael Heiser said:

Just so you all know, we knew about the error in the Hebrew alphabet video in the "Learn to use...Hebrew" videos.  We found the typo a day before it was scheduled to ship, so rather than delay that any longer, we decided to just make a new video for downloading. It lives here:

false

Has this link been fixed?  Is there another link where the error can be corrected via a download?

I wish that post wasn't locked, I would have told Bob that I appreciate their hard work, and transparency in this whole effort.

I'll just say it here..

God bless you, Bob (and Logos employees too)

Thanks Steve.  This answered my question.
