I've never had this happen before, but I just lost all my Logos Documents.
I have a 2010 MacBook Pro that is on its last leg (repeatedly crashing because of a failing graphics/logic board, or so I am told). Just a few minutes ago my computer crashed and when I logged back into Logos I can't see any documents (except what I just created after this issue) in my documents menu.
Very, Very, Worried!

Try going to https://documents.logos.com/ to see if they are available there.

Good thinking Tim! They are present there... So now the question is why aren't they present on my computer!

Anybody else have any thoughts on how this can be fixed?

I would recommend contacting Customer Services and see if they can diagnose this - it might require logging in to your machine
And I would hold back from creating any more Documents until it has been resolved.
Try the sync repair command.

I guess I am going to need to call. Unfortunately, the "Sync Repair" command did not work.

I am confused why you are worried about Logos! It's time to get a new computer. Your issue may well be hardware related

If diagnostic logging is enabled and Logos has been open since the crash, they would be useful for understanding document loss and sync repair.
Possibly crash corrupted database file(s) with documents so the file(s) had to be recreated, which would appear as documents lost. After database files were created, the sync repair command "double-checks that the documents and settings stored on the local machine match the documents and settings stored on the server. Any local items found to be missing from the server will be uploaded again."
Checking folder permissions (and other post crash steps) could be helpful => https://www.logos.com/support/logos6/mac/crash

I an just trying to limp along until they release an updated MacBook Pro. It may be partially related to hardware, but I can't imagine that would keep it from re-downloading/re-syncing with the cloud. It does allow me to create and edit new documents, and those new documents sync.
I finally found a fix for the problem (on my own).
I called tech support this morning and they asked me to reinstall the application. Unfortunately that did not resolve the problem. I decided that before calling tech support back, and being back on hold again, I would try again to figure this out on my own.
Long story, short... I found where Logos stores the document .db files, I made a backup copy, and then deleted the files. I relaunched Logos and Logos re-downloaded the documents I was missing. Now all appears to be in working order.
