The other Greek texts don't have this problem; and so are fairly user friendly on the IPad. I wish we had a similar text for the Iliad; or could turn off the other elements; or could turn off those elements in Logos 4 and save/sync to iOS.

[quote user="Paul Golder"] [quote user="John Kaess"]Couple that with the steady market share increase of the Mac platform, and I think Logos should be working hard on the Mac version[/quote] I can see this, at 78% Windows to 3.7% Mac who knows, in 50 or 100 years Mac's may be the machine of choice ( although there are contrary warning signs since Mac

I must say, I'm a little surprised that important works like this - not to mention the OLD - are not assumed to be essential to Logos. After all, Logos offers so much and so much that is, shall we say, a bit obscure. This is a good thing. However, important dictionaries/lexicons like this are of use to virtually everyone who uses Logos. To me it's almost

[quote user="DMB"] It's a greek crowd, with a few hebrew stragglers. I haven't seen any 'latin' folks which is curious, given the richness of the writings of the various groups among the church fathers. I HAVE whined about Logos' library short-comings but I have a hard time arguing with some of these core resources being on CP and very little interest

I am trying to decide between the Catholic Scholar edition and the Original Languages collection. I am a reader of classical Greek and trying to move into NT/Koine. I like the Catholic Scholars, especially for the Aquinas resources - esp. the Latin Summa. I do wish it had more resources (and in Latin) from St. Augustine. If I do go with the Catholic

[quote user="NB.Mick"] [quote user="Johannes Hendrik Menkveld"] do you have a excel sheet which compares more then just the base packages? could you sent it?

[quote user="Fr. Charles R. Matheny"] I'm in same group. I did a clean install, have no issues with any programs. the Logos issues I have are pretty common within the Logos experience.

Outside Scripture? I can have all of this in one "book" so this is my answer as to what "book" I'd bring to a desert island (Chesterton's answer to that proverbial question was: "Thomas' Guide to Practical Shipbuilding.") 1. Saint Thomas Aquinas, everything 2. Saint Augustine, everything 3. Anything by G.K. Chesterton. You simply cannot read him without

[quote user="alabama24"] [quote user="Mr. Micawber"]I had a 2009/10 mac - I put Mountain Lion on it and it became absolutely useless. [/quote] Did you do a fresh install (complete wipe of the HD)?

[quote user="David Paul"] [quote user="Mr. Micawber"] In other words, the human brain uses location to recall the words it reads, which helps reinforce the information. To trigger a memory, the brain might recall whether it read the information at the top, middle, or bottom of the page, remember a corresponding picture on the page, or even a page number

[quote user="Phil Mills"] [quote user="Mike Webb"]I often find myself googling to find verses because it simply is faster. [/quote] That says it all.

Does Logos 4 provide this ability? Is it easy to use? Configurable in terms of word frequency and that sort of thing? Thanks!

[quote user="Graham Criddle"] All the indications I have seen is that the mobile platforms (first iOS and then Android) are very important to Logos. There is significant focus on these platforms and the functionality continues to increase. Others have noted areas in which the iPad app is behind its competitors, it will be interesting so see what the

[quote user="Jessica S."] Thanks for explaining the bidding system! Guess we're just gonna have to wait... If they got this dictionary up, Logos could compete with so many of the Latin and Greek databases out there for Classicists!
