Snow Leopard And Logos Bible Software Beware

There are reports of incompatibility between Logos Bible Software and the new Snow Leopard operating system. It seems the wise approach is to delay upgrading your OS until Logos issue what will hopefully be a quick fix if your Bible software is something you use every day. See:

actually... wouldn't the wise approach be for Logos to be prepared for the upgrade ahead of time?

We are preparing ahead of time, but there’s only so much we can do before we have the final version of Snow Leopard that customers will receive. We’ve identified a minor compatibility issue and should have a fix out shortly after Snow Leopard ships.

sounds good. are u able to share what the minor issue is or would be?

Wise, yes and I know they try... I'm a PC so I happy I've had little to no problem with the Windows 7 RC I'm running, but Mac with an earlier than scheduled release I'm sure did not help developers, while they are exciting their customer base....

I would like to hear Microsoft come out early with the release of Windows 7, can't wait to fir it up in 64 Bit, which I wasn't going to do in RC version... Snow Leopard looks pretty nice too.

Be Blessed,

I just upgraded and some of my theological journals are behaving strangely. For example, I can open volume 42 of JETS, but when I scroll down past the first few pages or so(trying to get to page 592), it's crash time. Nor can I click directly to a higher page in the volume via a search.

Phil,

I have a question. Is this forum only accessible to actual users of Logos, or is it public so that anyone can get a password to post?

Say, hypothetically, there was someone who preferred other software and they wanted to come here to promote it. And every post in their history was either a criticism of Logos or mentioned another software they like better. Can I assume they are a real user, or could it be possible for them just to be here for another agenda. Why? I don't know because that would be quite silly to me, but it is just a hypothetical I was curious about.

Again, the real question is, who has access to post?

Thanks,

Joe

Now that 1.2.1 fixes the Hebrew font issue for Snow Leopard (I believe that is true), are there any plans to fix the same problem in 10.5? I asked this question in another thread and received no answer, so I'll keep asking until someone at Logos responds.

Yes, I confirm that "beware" is a good thing to do. I did a clean install of Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro. Then when I downloaded the image file of the Mac engine from My Account at Logos.com, and then double-clicked on the download to begin installation, I had reported in a warning window: "there may be something wrong with this image file." It then said that proceeding with the installation could destabilize the OS. After trying other things, I then proceeded past that warning and installed the Mac engine. Wow, it completely crashed my MacBook Pro (I am a long-time and skilled user). I had to reinstall the OS Snow Leopard from the DVD in order to gain access again to my laptop. So, beware is good advice. Don't install on Snow Leopard machines.

Were you using the latest 1.2.2 version?
