Setting Top Bibles

How do I find information on how to set Top Bibles on the iPad app? I notice that on my PC, I do not have a Top Bibles collection. Is there a setting on the iPad app for this? Is there a way to include more Bible versions? I do see that my list of four Bibles on the app is in the order my Bibles are prioritized on the PC, but only four.

How do I find information on how to set Top Bibles on the iPad app?

You can't set "Top Bibles" on your IPad - you can set your "Preferred Bible" from the Settings Panel

I notice that on my PC, I do not have a Top Bibles collection.

This is simply your five highest prioritized Bibles which you prioritize from the Library in the desktop program

Does this give you what you need?

I only have four Bible versions showing on the iPad, not five. That is puzzling.

Showing where?

Which versions are they?

Do you own more than four?

Tools, then Text Comparison. NASB95, ESV, AMP, KJV. I own a lot more than four [:D]

Thanks, Graham. They are in the same order as my prioritizations but for some reason, after syncing devices and re-starting the iPad app and re-booting the iPad, only four show up, not five. And I did try twiddling my thumbs, too.

Strange - I get 5.

Is it possible that the fifth is just OT or NT and so doesn't match the range you are comparing?

The fifth is the NIV84. I had the KJV w. Apocrypha prioritized in the first five and just realized that it is two volumes. So, I removed that and added the RV and now I have five! Still would like to populate it with more, though. Thanks, Graham.

Create a collection on the desktop with the Bibles you want.

Then, after syncing, click the Top Bibles button in the TC tool on the iPad and select the collection you have created.

That should give you what you want

Thank you, Graham, for all your help! I am glad I asked the question.

I made a collection of eight Bibles, called it English Bibles and when I open it on the iPad in the TC tool, it still only shows five Bibles. Are you showing more than five Bibles?

Text Comparison on the mobile apps is currently limited to five Bibles.

Sorry, I wondered about that but didn't check.

Apologies for any confusion

In Logos 10, is there a way to limit the number of Bibles in "Top Bibles" to just two? Or should I make a new collection of Bibles with just the two I want?

I'm asking that this be moved to the current mobile app as this is on a product that hasn't been available for several years. AFAIK the answer is no that if you only prioritize two Bibles, Logos will continue on with it's own default priority list until it reaches the standard five.

Thank you MJ,

I ended up making a new collection with just the two Bibles I wanted and named it appropriately, so it is easy to use it when I need to. For some reason though I am unable to set the NASB as the first resource and the NLT as the second. My idea was to have the more conservative translation first and then use a more dynamic translation as a comparison.

I'm not sure if this will work for you, but in order to put my bibles in a specific order in a list, I used a number before the version For example: (01 NASB, 02 ESV, 03 NIV).

I'm thinking of a way to rename the resources? It is curious that in the collection the NASB is listed before the NLT but in the search the order is reversed.
