Error loading book

Whenever I seek to to a specific location in one of my commentaries I get the following message: Error loading book, Could not load the specified book.

I know now I have the book (because I am I iam in it) and my Internetconnection is fine. This is happening in my Logos and in my Vyrso aps.

It makes study hard if you can't go to a location.

Hi Tim,

Which commentary are you referring to, and is it downloaded locally or not?

Knowledge Bible Commentary, Coctable and more. Whenever I'm in a book and seek to navigate by verse I get that message. It had worked before and Internet seems fine.

Should have been Tom Constable commentary, also Believer's Bible Commentary. Expositor's seems to work.

Are they downloaded locally?

If the book is downloaded, try deleting the book and redownloading it. There may be a versioning issue present (i.e. you have an older version of the resource stored on your device).

I don't see a mechanism for either deleting or downloading individual books on my iPad. I assumed I was reading them from the cloud.

What does downloaded locally mean on my iPad? I don't see info on that.

OK, they are not downloaded. Should the be? Sorry if I'm being dense.

This sounds like a network connection issue but I'm not sure. Please tap on the Help icon and then Send Support Info - this will send us log information that can help debug the issue.

It sounds like Kevin is helping you out with your issue, but let me clarify this for you. Most books are accessed via the "cloud," but you can download books for offline viewing. In the Library window, if you tap on the circle "i" logo, a "book info" popup will appear. In that pop up, you will see a "download" button. If the book has already been downloaded, you will see a "remove" button instead. By the way, the "book info" panel can also be accessed when you are reading a book. The circle "i" icon is in the upper right hand corner when the menu is present.

Books can also be downloaded a couple more ways:

You can use the "download all" button. In the list view of the library, scroll slightly upwards and two things will appear: a count of resources available and the "download all" button. Personally, I don't recommend downloading all of your resources for performance reasons. You can utilize this button, however, in some creative ways. If you want to download all of your Vyrso books, for example, you can filter your library to edition:e and press the download all button. All of your Vyrso books (which are all tagged as 'ebook' editions) will be downloaded. You can also tag books within L5 and then download those specifically tagged books in the mobile app.
You can use the library management features within the L5 library to choose which books to download to your mobile device.

OK. Sent it again and got the same email back. Is there some way to confirm that this is going to the right place?

Is your app Logos account the same one that you use in the forums? If not, that could be one reason why Kevin didn't find it. It may be next week before someone gets back with you due to the weekend.

I think the ap is the same, although I'm typing this from a browser on my laptop. I downloaded some of the books and that seems to address the problem, but it still exists on those that aren't locally downloaded. I may try to call tomorrow. Otherwise, I'll wait to hear back. Thanks for your help.

I apologize for the confusion, I'll follow up with you on Monday and let you know what we've discovered from your logs. Meanwhile, at this point I recommend removing the app and reinstalling after making sure you have a good wifi connection.

There is a problem with one of our web services that is preventing navigation by Bible reference for streaming resources. The workaround is to download the resource.

This was fixed earlier today.
