logos on mac does not copy to , pages, word, keynote, libre office ,

theres been a problem with the mac version of logos in copy bible verses , in may apps and word , but now its not doing it on any , i have platinuim , its frustrating as if preparing for a message , can end spending all time trying to get logos to do simple things like copy a bible verse , i dont want to resort to another bible to accomplish simple task , this has been a problem for a long time , basic things like copy to word , i really appeal to logos to sort it , as people could but this for preaching the word only to find it doeas not do simple copy bible verse into the apps it says , please sort it , its a been a problem for a while

    I'm not a Mac user but have seen issues reported about footnotes not being copied across due to an update to Pages but I don't believe I have seen issues regarding CBV not working.

    I see that you raised this issue before - at http://community.logos.com/forums/t/83770.aspx - and there a number of Mac users seem to be reporting that it is working.

    Please - either in this thread or in your earlier one - provide clear step-by-step details of what you are doing, what you expect to happen and what is happening.

    Also give details of versions of Logos, Mac OS, Pages and Word software

    all apps are updates including logos , click copy and paste does not work in nearly all , the cheap free bible apps do it , it just needs fixed , its gone on for ages , if the cheap free bible stuff works why cant logos role there sleeves up and fix , 

    Darren,

    I can appreciate your frustration :-(

    Following Graham's reply ... Since I am a Mac user, I am simply helping to validate the issue you are facing.  I am able to do a simple Copy and Paste using the CMD+C followed by CMD+V method; I copied a passage from ESV and pasted it on:

    • Microsoft Word for Mac 2011, Version 14.4.5 (work as it is supposed to do)
    • Pages, Version 5.5 (Content/Format correct, however there is no citation)

    I am running OS X 10.10 and Logos for Mac 5.2b SR5.  Let me know if you need other information for comparison to nail down the issue.

    hi ,just phoned logos spoke to tommy , regarding the copy and paste tab not working in most apps and word , and they said they are aware of the problem and are waiting for the developers to do something , but they dont know when ,

    they said they are aware of the problem and are waiting for the developers to do something , but they dont know when ,

    This has been fixed in 6.0a SR-1.

    Angela, it seems to work for me only when Pages is not currently opened. IOW, if I copy and paste to Pages it will open Pages and insert the verse(s). Once opened, however, it no longer functions correctly.

    Please provide a screen shot of your program settings as there are setting to control the copying of footnotes etc.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    did you get attached screen shot

    hopefully its attached

    Thanks for the screenshot.

    MJ was asking for a shot of your "Program Settings" available under the Tool Menu - as that controls how citations and footnotes are copied

    Have you tried the CMD-C/V method that LimJK mentioned above? If so, did that work for you?

    Daren,

    I have done some experiment following what I see in your Screen Shot using the "Copy Bible Verse" Tool from Logos. The following is what I can confirm:

    • With MS Word for Mac 2011 Ver 14.4.5 Opened first, "Copy Bible Verse" Tool actually works as advertised
    • With Pages 5.5 the "Copy Bible Verse" Tool does not work; BUT, Pages 5.5 was only available yesterday with OS X 10.10  ...
    • With TextEdit ... it does not work too; maybe Logos could remove it from the selection list this is really not a word processor.

    Suggest you consider using the popular CMD+C and CMD+V pair for Copy and Paste, unless you need special formatting requirement.

    All the best.

    thank you , word does not work or text edit for me as well as the others word has not worked for many months now ,when studying or doing a message i want to paste a passage not just a verse , does logos nave a contact address for getting them to fix stuff

    blessing

    darren 

    does logos nave a contact address for getting them to fix stuff

    Contact details are at https://www.logos.com/contact - I would suggest you contact Customer Service

    But they will need details to try and track this down - as others have posted in this thread it does seem to be working (most of the time)

    when studying or doing a message i want to paste a passage not just a verse

    As above I would expect Cmd-C/V to do this

    This just started happening to me (copy & paste button won't paste in Word) after I updated to osx Yosemite yesterday.

    I have tried this and cannot reproduce the problem. Though I don't use MS Word.

    Apps used were Logos 5.2b SR5; Pages 4.3; MindNode 1.10.6.

    Hope the problem is resolved for those of you who are experiencing it.

    i often and mainly  copy a passage not just a verse so thats why i want to use what logos supply the copy and paste tab which is the problem and has been for a long time with other mac users as well as its seems , thank you for help , the problem is copying and pasting from copy and paste tab mostly , 

    i often and mainly  copy a passage not just a verse so thats why i want to use what logos supply the copy and paste tab

    On Windows Ctrl-C/V works for a passage as well as a verse and I assume that Cmd-C/V does on Mac as well.

    copy and paste tab

    Do you mean the "Copy Bible Verses" tool?

    it wont paste in all for me , you do get the odd moment it does

    how can we get logos to fix it as i have rang them before , is ther any way of getting this bug fixed in mac logos , who do you contact 

    Logos just updated, and "copy Bible verses" still doesn't work. I'm using Yosemite OS and Logos 6 Gold. If I have Pages open and Logos- load some verses in Copy Bible verse panel, mouse and click on "Copy and Paste" (using ESV to Pages) nothing happens?? Frustrating. I can copy and go to Pages and paste-- that works, but the slow way. Help

    I have the latest version of Logos, not working still 

    i have the same problem in logos 5 and logos 6 , ended up phoning logos , they told me they are aware of the problem and  the manger is , but something like only the developers can only fix it , and could not tell me when it would be fixed , but they acknowledge it need fixed, it would be a real blessing to see it fixed
