Hi
I was hoping someone could help me out, I'm new to Logos but normally pretty good at working these things out myself. No luck so far on this one though!
I made new documents on an iPhone - these notes and highlighting synced to my iPad and to documents.logos.com but can't be seen on the desktop. Any changes on the desktop sync across all devices.
How do I get the desktop Logos 5 to download notes from documents.logos.com?
I've tried the good old "turn it off and on again" and clicked the sync button but still nothing.
If it helps, I'm running the latest version of Logos on all of my devices and I'm using OSX Logos 5.
thanks,
Brendon
Hi Brendon,
Occasionally, your desktop can think it's synced something when that's not the case. Typing Sync Repair in the command box forces Logos to re-check that it has everything, and should hopefully sort things out for you. It will take several minutes to run.

You can't. As long as your desktop is syncing normally, you need to look/post in the iphone/ipad forum for your notes sync issues to be addressed.

I think the issue as described is that mobile device sync is working but desktop sync isn't.
Or are you reading this differently?
EDIT: Sorry Dave - just reread and noted the comment about Desktop sync working fine

Hi Brendon - and welcome to the forums

Just to check.
Are you saying that the documents don't appear in the Documents menu or that any associated notes / highlights aren't visible in your resources? If the latter, then it may be a visual filter setting.
Wow thanks so much guys for those fast replies. I should have posted hours ago!
The sync repair option sorted it out for me.
To answer the other questions and to confirm for anyone in the future who has the same problem
- sync was working fine on my iOS devices and all notes and highlighting were uploading and downloading as they should.
-sync on the desktop was telling me that it was working; cycling through the process as per normal. Though it was in reality only uploading notes and highlighting to documents.logos.com but not downloading them and thus no changes or new notes made externally were appearing in the documents menu or within already visible notes.
Logos is looking like one of those options I should have got into years ago! So much to like!
