My wife and I share the same Logos license and where she likes the NASB, I prefer the ESV. Is there a way for each of us to have our own preference default bible on our respective laptops?

    You may try different layouts, and see whether that satisfieds the needs of differing Bibles. Go to the upper right corner of the software to find that option. However, having different Bible versions pop up when hovering over a Biblical reference, is much more difficult. I know of one resource where You can have Your preferred or prioritized Bible(s) pop up when You hover over a reference, and the NRSV pop up when You hover over the astirisk (there's an asterisk after each Scripture reference), it's the Hermeneia Commentaries.

    Afraid not. The only way for that to happen as far as I know, is for one or both of you to work offline. As soon as you go online it will sync and affect the other one if they are online.

    If you were to prevent one of the installations from ever syncing, it would be possible. Since I am always trying to make sure that my installations DO sync, I can't be of much help. [:)]

    Preferred bible is independent of your layout. A partial solution is to always have the ESV open with "Send hyperlinks here" (in its menu), but that doesn't handle popups or hovering. So you have to change bible from the Home Page or by using Prioritize in Library.
