Hi Adam - and welcome to the forums

Strange - it should appear as an option when you are doing a Basic Search.
(Click on "Entire Library" and you should see a list of resource collections - and some individual volumes)
Is this where you are looking?

I think Adam is asking if his Collections from the desktop version show up in Basic search on the iPad - and I have never seen those. When I click the "Entire Library" dropdown, I get a list of some Bibles and devotionals, that is it - actually fairly useless. Maybe I too have something set up wrong not to see desktop collections on the iPad Search?

You need to ensure you have "Basic" search selected as opposed to "Bible"

Check my post above, I was doing Basic search not Bible.
Apologies - so you were.
When I select Basic Search I get the list of resource collections I would expect as per below:
I didn't do anything special to enable this.
Can you post a screenshot showing what you get and the set of collections you would expect to see from your desktop?

Thanks Graham for your help!
This picture is the start of my collections - I probably have 150 of them:
This picture is a snapshot of my iPad Verbum latest beta (but it has been that way for as long as I can remember, I thought it just worked that way until now). I have just reinstalled fresh due to another issue in another thread:

You can see it's just a few of my reading plans, some of my Bibles, and some of the canned devotionals.

Question: Are you on-line or Off-line? Are you seeing your whole library or just what you downloaded to your device?

Strange
I wonder if there is a sync issue.
Please check at documents.logos.com and see if the collections are shown there - as per:
That would give us a clue as to whether the problem is between Logos 5 and the cloud or between the cloud and your iPad

The screenshot seems to indicate an on-line connection via AT&T so I don't think that's the issue

Yes Graham, I am online through my wireless. I did check my iPhone as well, it shows the exact same lack of collections.
It looks like my collections are fine on documents.logos.com, see the picture - and I have 251 of them!

And in case it matters, since I installed fresh recently I only have 2 downloaded resources, in the past I doubt I Have ever had more than about 10 resources downloaded. That shouldn't matter though, should it?

no, this shouldnt be afrected by whether resources are downloaded or not

It is!
So I had installed fresh on both iPad and iPhone Neither have collections. I went to my iPad, and I thought "Hmm, while I am pondering this, I might as well download the 10-12 resources I read a lot there." So I downloaded, and on a lark checked the Collections in the Search dropdown - the collections are now there!
So I went to my iPhone - still not there. I started downloading resources - after each one, I waited a half-minute or so, then checked the search - when I got to 7 resources downloaded, I went and checked, and all the Collections are there!
Boy is that non-intuitive - I wonder what is up with that?

Hi Don
I dont understand but glad it is working!
Hopefully someone from Logos can comment on this.
Graham
Edit: and I've just checked my Verbum app. I only have six resources downloaded and the collections appear fine.
i guess that aomething in the download process must have triggered a sync.

Thanks for your help Graham - it helped narrow down the problem!
