Please DO NOT ask questions here (ask in main forum) its only meant as a first point of reference, and also remember that these answers are not (necesseraly) endorsed by Logos.

Q) How do I search for Bible References and Topics in L4
In Logos4 (L4) you need to use Basic Search for these operations.
Select whatever range you want to search (Entire Library or a Collection), then:-
1. Topic - type your topic and results should appear in a Topic section + normal Library search results below.
You might also get topic links from topics.logos.com
2. Bible Reference - just type your reference eg. jn 3:1-4 (bible references are automatically recognised by L4).
If you want equality type <=jn 3:1-4> Note that the angle brackets are needed!

Q: I have a datacap.. Do I really need to download (x)GB twice for both my main PC and my Laptop?
A) No, you dont.
Dave Hooton figured it out
... the standard installation path is:-
XP - C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Logos4
Vista/Win7 - C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Logos4
++ if you get a download you should Cancel it
Hope that helps

Is it a bit of an oxymoron to have a thread about FAQs where we cannot ask questions? Oh wait. You asked a question. I fully believe you are trying to be helpful here but it just struck me as odd. If only you can ask a question and you already know the answer.... And if we can't ask a question then this thread becomes about questions to which only you ask but to which you already know the answer.
Never mind...way too much caffeine on my end this morning! Thanks for trying to help!!
lol - just thought if we could keep all the answers together might be easier to locate rather hen lookin through 100 messages to find an answer

Of course! I actually love the idea. Thanks for not tearing my head off which I probably deserved! Your help is appreciated. This is a great day for Logos.
I have yet been unable to do this. I have tried twice to copy my resources to an external drive, and both times I get "Error Copying File or Folder" "Cannot copy GS_BSAC: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)."

Charlene, a CRC error indicates a problem with the file you are
trying to copy or more often a problem with the media you are copying
from or copying to. At any rate, it has nothing to do with Logos.

Q) is anything happening/where are my resources
1) Dont manually copy any files into Logos4, it just wont work, plain and simple, pointless excercise
2) Logos 4 looks at you Logos 3 install during upgrade and pulls in anything it needs
3) Nothing will show until NEW logos4 resources are downloaded and indexing has completed, (this can take 30mins to start given demands on servers currently), look for a blue logos icon doen near clock, will tell you how much is left to download
4) Be patient
5) If you do need to use the Scan command RESART YOUT LOGOS4 IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOU TYPE IT IN or nothing, and I mean nothing will happen until you do, then be patient, again it can take 15 mins as it checks the resources before showing any signs of action

Delete it if you can. L4 should go to work and provide a replacement.
