I am running 4.5b on my desktop and 2.14 on my iPad.  I have 5 bibles prioritized on my desktop with the same 5 in text comparison on my desktop.  Why won't the same bibles sync to my iPad Text Comparison?

    Randy -

    The sync is not yet working for that. You can achieve the same effect, however, by preferring the five bibles you want to use, on the iPad, in reverse order. Go to More | Settings | Preferred Bibles and select the 5th bible you want to use. Repeat the process with the 4th, 3rd, 2nd and real preferred bible. Text comparison on the iPad will then use these 5 bibles. Enjoy!

    Randy - Bill is right, the sync for that prioritization has not fully migrated to sync v2. The solution he gave is a bit tedious, but the results are effective when done properly.

    I am not sure why, but I have not been able to get this result.  I tried on two separate occasions and just got frustrated and quit both times. For example, suppose I set my preferred Bible to be something new and then go to text comparison it wouldn't be there, I would go back and my new Bible would no longer be checked.  Sometimes it would "stick" and other times it just refused to cooperate.

    Dear Jerry,

    After preferring the versions, you may have to enter the book name, chapter number and verse number again at the top right hand corner in order to get the desired comparison. Otherwise the screen will only show the results of the previous enquiry. Just try and see whether it works.

    Blessings,

    Bryan
