Cannot do offline searches on iPad Air

Reid A Ferguson · September 2014

I have a number of downloaded resources, but the search function does not work on any of them off line. The screen shot below is of an ESV search. Very basic.

iPad Air - OS 7.1.2

Some thoughts:

Many features are "online only."
I know that basic searches are supported for a single resource while offline. (You can't perform a library search.)
I repeated your search and got the same results... until I switched from a "bible" to "basic" search. I'm not sure how the results might be different.

I think I saw a couple of weeks ago that if you select a range - such as "New Testament" - then offline search doesn't work

Try removing that and see what happens

Apologies, I was travelling at the time and didn't get round to reporting it

Thanks for looking Bam. After your note I tried the same (switching to Basic) and got my ESV search to work. However, that seems to be a true bug. Since the Bible search feature is there, it SHOULD work. But I will be happy to us the Basic until it is remedied. Odd. I'll try it with the other resources I'm concerned with and see if the same applies.

Regards!

Thanks Graham - I'll give it a shot. But that raises a second issue. Can you do Bible word lookups offline? Mine doesn't seem to be able to. Even tho I have BDAG (and a few others) downloaded - it will only look up with a regular dictionary, not a Greek or Hebrew lexicon. OK when online, nada when off. Thoughts on that?

Thanks for the report, I'll write up a case.
