Collections

Well, I have managed to download and index the new program, though it took quite a while (about 12 hours).  The first thing that I noticed is that all of my collections are gone.  Is there something that I need to move over or copy into this version in order to continue to use all of my collections?

Of course, given the incredibly fast searchs of all of my books, collections are not nearly as needed as they were in version 3.  I can see, however, how one might want to use collections in order to get a smaller number of hits.

I haven't had any crashs yet and the download, though it took a while, all went ahead with no problems.  I will be loading this onto my desktop tomorrow or Wednesday and will be anxious to see if the same smooth process happens there.

Thanks for any help

    Is there something that I need to move over or copy into this version in order to continue to use all of my collections?

    Good Q!  I would like Logos to convert v3 collections to v4 format to get us going OR provide standard collections as are currently available from Morris Proctor. I just compiled my first collection by having v3 on one monitor and selecting the same resources in v4  on another monitor! It is a little better than v3 because I could specify "Greek Bible" and remove/add resources for my collection.

    One thing I have noticed in the collection that needs rectifying is that all the books are split up, for example in version 3 if I were to select a certain bible commentary like Life Application I can select it and it is fine, however on version 4 the Life Application is split into the different 66 different books of the bible and thereforeif if I want that whole collection I then would have to click and select on all those 66 books compared to 1 book for the entire collection in version 3. Therefore my small custom collection will turn into a collection of over a few hundred books by the time I've added some more commentatires etc. for example.

    Unless I am mistaken, is this right or am I missing something?

    Thanks Jacob, but that still doesn't solve the issue.

    Two days makes a difference! Get Logos to supply some basic query-based Collections because they will work for everybody's resources and kick-start people into using the queries. The query base will soon convince you that the only collections from v3 are those that have to be built manually.
