    The commentaries section in the passage guide allows to filter commentaries by type (e.g. I can quickly find all exegetical commentaries for the current passage). Is there any way to use this commentary type as a filter in the library? E.g. I would like to see all exegetical commentaries in my library.

      How do I sort my library by the period by which it was written? I'm looking for books that are pre-reformation. Thanks.

        This would take some effort. But you could manually tag them with a date rage that they fall into, for example "200-300". Then just type those numbers into the library's "Find Resources" window when you want to select a book from that date range

      Hi, the print Library doesn't recognize my older books. I have about 250 pre 1960 so there is no barcode. Is there a way for me to type in the ISBN number so my print library can contain the book? Thank you

      1. NB.Mick 16 days ago

        No there isn't. But you can select them in the "Add to library" view of the library and then put them into your Print Library.

      I am not sure when it started doing this (could have been before 10), but my library lists Raymond Edward Brown for the titles in Bible Speaks today series (different Raymond Brown). The citation is correct but the indexing in the library is wrong.

        Since this is an error on the product pages as well, I posted at https://community.logos.com/forums/p/160988/1234720.aspx#1234720 and I hope Mitch will fix the product pages and Kyle G. Anderson the library metadata.

      I set up my Prioritized List and it shows up on my Desktop computer. When I look at my laptop, the resources I added to my Priority list are not there. In other words, my prioritized resources show up on one computer and not another computer. Can anyone help. I am on Logos 10.

        Hi, I purchased the Logos 10 package today. I now tried to add print books to my library, but did not find a button to scan the barcode or QR-code?

        1. Phil Gons (Faithlife) 2 months ago

        Hi! Please help. When I open the library bar, I can never read the resource or scan the list because the auto information pop up always gets in the way. I've tried to find a setting to remove this but cannot. Anybody know how to fix this feature?

          The Library sidebar does not open. Clicking on the button do not open it. How can I get the library sidebar to open so that I can see it's filter? What am I doing wrong. My version of Logos is: Logos Bible Software 9.11 SR-1 9.11.0.0022. God bless you ALL!

          1. Adam Borries (Faithlife) 9 months ago

            Thanks for the report, Richard. If you open the Library in a floating windows (cmd+L), are you able to open the sidebar then?

          2. Sam 9 months ago

            Richard, I have the same problem to occur sporadically. Each element of the sidebar flickers as the cursor hovers over them, and the are not selectable. I end up just closing down and waiting for a day, which ordinarily seems to work. The problem only seems to happen on my M1 Mac. My Intel-equipped MacBook Pro is not affected by the problem at the same time, nor is my M1-based iPad Pro.

            Thank you for trying to help guys. Adam, opening the Library in a floating windows does not open the sidebar either. Sam, there is no flickering for me when hovering over anything. I have a 2017 iMac Pro. God bless you!

          When I downloaded Logos on a new device, I did the "quick start" where it didn't download all my resources. I now want all my library resources downloaded locally, but cannot find where to complete the download. It only updates the limited number that are already downloaded. How do I get access to all my resources?

          1. Phil Gons (Faithlife) 9 months ago — Edited

            Pastor Jennifer Long, open your Library, select all resources (using Ctrl/Cmd + A), and chose Download from the right-click menu or the right Info sidebar.

          Before WordSearch Bible was acquired by Logos, I used both programs. One feature I really really miss is the ability to organize the Library anyway I want. I can create my own categories, e.g., Pastoral Ministry. Then under Pastoral Ministry, I can create subcategories, e.g., Counseling, Leadership, and Preaching. Is there a reason why this cannot be done in Logos? Or, is it already there and I am just not aware of it?
