Ipod touch 8 GB offline

u can use the resources offline on the iPod Touch... as far as storage space, it really depends on what you're using it for. if you're using it for music & video too, you may want a larger device.

personally, i already own a Microsoft Zune as my primary portable media player, so i'm really only using the iPod Touch for the Logos app, and a few others (like games & such), so the 8GB model is just fine for me.

Andrew,

The app itself takes up 1.8 MB

I have the NET, ESV, NASB, Westcott Hortt GNT, and BHS bibles, ISBE, Finally Alive, Hodge's Systematic Theology, two commentaries on Matthew (JC Ryle, Cornerstone), BDAG, and the Commentary of the NT's use of the OT. These together appear (based on what itunes is telling me) to take up either approximately 790 MB or 204 MB (That's just a guess though). I don't know if the data is listed under the "application" section or "other" section.

Is it possible for someone to give some examples of how the file size of resources compares to the Logos 4 edition?  That might be the easiest way for us to guestimate the size iPod touch/iphone that would best suit people.

I had to reinstall the app and thus the books on my iPhone just now, so I investigated for you.  These can only be very rough figures since iTunes report used and free space in terms of GB's. 

TDNT took up about 0.17GB on the device (free space reported by iTunes went from 5.73->5.56GB)
Anchor Bible Dictionary took up about 0.15GB on the device (reported free space went from 5.56GB to 5.41GB).

They are 80,227 and 83,701 kB in my Logos3 folder respectively.  Hope that helps.  [:)]

So it's possible to download Logos books onto the ipod touch for offline reading?  I thought you had to be online, but that would be intriguing.  I couldn't afford an iphone, but an ipod touch would come in handy for the Logos books.

Has anyone downloaded a large amount of books to the iphone or ipod touch?  I'm wondering how much space (GB) that would take up.

Offline reading is possible but I think that all other functions are severely curtailed unless online.

I am new to forums and I am new to ipods and Apps.

Last week I purchased an itouch for the sole purpose of having many of my 3100 + Logos books with me. I downloaded the Logos App and then a number of books to be used offline including the ESV which is on the iphone-ready list. I have upgraded to Logos 4 Platinum. When I am way from an internet connection I receive a message that the itouch cannot connect. When I try to read the ESV I receive the message that it cannot connect to the internet and I cannot read it.

When I tried to download the Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary (which I purchased) I receive an error message that it failed to download. I have made several attempts but always with the same result.

Nowhere have I found a way to download the 31 free books Logos is offering.

Reading a recent Logos Blog I was told it is best to sign in to my Logos account when I download books. I tried the link given but received an error message. I am tired of error messages and want to use my itouch and the Logos books. HELP!

Can someone give me a step 1, step 2, step 3, etc.for installing the App and the books so I can use them offline?

Hi,

Is there a way to put my Logos library on my logos app on the Ipod touch, without having to be online.. I've got a mobile broadband connection and all this downloading is costing me bigtime!!!

Thanks,

Willeke

Hi Joel, thanks for the quick reply. However, my Wifi is my Mobile broadband.. It will take the bytes I download or sync off my 3G account, so with a Logos Library that actually is bigger than 3G... will cost me more and more.

So my question is: without having to be online (and I mean Internet) can I sync my Ipod with my Logos Library. Maybe I should mention that I do have a timemachine, if that makes any difference...
