Logos Desktop takes a very long time to start
Hello, I've noticed that about 25% of the time I start up Logos (currently 37.2.12) on my MacBook Pro it gets stuck and takes an extremely long amount of time to start. Sometimes it starts up just fine without delay, but sometimes it can literally take 15-30 minutes to start. I'm on a 2019 MacBook Pro 16" (Intel i9, 2.3…

Logos crashes repeatedly on Mac OS Sequoia
Upgraded to Sequoia now Logos is buggy. If I float my mouse anywhere near the menu bar the app crashes. I'm running a MacBook Pro with an Apple M1 Pro chip. I've been on Logos since Logos 4 so I'd expect by now Logos would know how to play nice with Apple products. Anyone else having a similar issue? I didn't see any…

Version 37.2.012 runs slowly
As happens periodically with new version releases, version 37.2.012 runs slowly on Windows 11. I reverted back to version 37.1.006, which runs without issue (other than the bugs that have been there for years). I'll probably just stick with this version going forward to avoid dealing with these slowdowns in the future.

Popups and Internal Tiles Detached from Window on Mac

Which search syntax version in Help
When Logos 10 was rolled out, a fair amount of e-ink was e-spilled on the new search syntax.

I suppose there are two questions here: 1 - Is there a web page that compares the two versions of…
