Books Offline and Slow Internet Connections

I have a slow wi-fi connection. When I want to download books for use offline I have to get them one at a time. If I do more then it never gets done.

My question is this:

Is there a way to get the books on my IPad by connecting to my MacBook and not have to download them from the net?

    Unfortunately not.

    Thanks.

    Another question. Why do I have to keep downloading the books even though I had them chosen and downloaded already.

    For example, I downloaded BHS and then later it would not work. So, I have to download it again.

    Sometimes books are updated, in which case you have to re-download them. If this is the case, they'll appear in a special section on your Logos iPhone homepage.

    Not intending to hijack this thread, but I've recently had some erratic behavior with this. A couple of days ago the "Updated resources available" (or what ever it's called [:)] ) section at the top of the home page said I had 40 resources that needed downloaded. I couldn't take the time to do it then. When I came back to it (either later that day or the next day), it now said that I had only 3 resources that needed updated. I told it to update all, which it apparently tried to do; however, I then got 3 separate pop-up boxes that told me the resources couldn't be downloaded. They were the KJV, the NRSV, and the Lexham Greek-English Interlinear SBL Edition. All three of those resources are still available to me offline and seem to work fine, so I don't know what's going on.

    Regards,

    Paul
