• Hi there, I’d like to get more info on Isaiah 8:3. does logos have a Bible commentary within, if so how can access that tool? Thank you for your help, God bless.
    1. If I understand your question correctly, there is a wonderful shortcut tool to find commentaries that touch on that reference (e.g. Is 8:3). Go to the Tools menu and type "Cited" and select the "Cited By tool. Type your reference at the top and from the many categories click the "Commentary Resources" will list all the commentaries you have that have mention to your inquiry. The results can be sorted by authors, types, series, etc.
    2. Quick and easy: drag the search icon to the middle of a blank page, in the top menu select books, with smart search selected enter, commentary Isa 8.3. I had 49 results but I have a lot of commentaries. At least you'll see all you have referring to this verse.
    3. Responding to Sherman Garner, this method only produced 46 results in my library, but using the passage guide produced 93 commentaries on the verse.
  • I have a collection of Samsung devices on which I run Logos: computer, 2 phones, and a tablet. They come up in the Library Devices section as samsung (model number). Is there a way of changing the identification so I can easily see which device it is?
    1. , if you log into Logos.com you can navigate to your account and find "mobile devices", there's a "pencil" icon next to each name allowing you to change it (or delete old devices). Or use this link directly (as long as you're logged in to Logos): https://www.logos.com/account/devices
    2. Personally, IMHO, not very helpful when it doesn't allow you to see exactly which iPhone or iPad is connected that is no longer in use. If it would allow you to see the device along with it's description or date it was added, that would make it easier to edit or delete.
  • I have been trying for many weeks to contact MP seminars to get the annual subscription. I've actually been waiting since just after camp LOGOS 10 came out. Please contact me so that I may continue with the training.
    1. they have always been prompt to answer me. How are you trying to contact them? The support form at the bottom of their website page?
    2. - if you could as Larry suggested use the Help icon in the lower right of any page of our site, then use Contact Us, this opens a support ticket. We'd be happy to help!
  • Ism having trouble login my account.
    1. Hi Willie, Sorry you’re having trouble. If the issue is a username password issue you’ll find reset options on the login screen. However, if you log in and there are still issues, you might try a different browser. This will help you determine if it’s a cache/cookie issue. There are some browser security settings that can sometimes interfere with logins as well so trying a different browser is a good diagnostic step for multiple reasons. If none of that helps please use the Help > Contact Us option on the site and we will look further into your account specifically and personally.
    2. I also am having some difficulties. It is not with the login, but I cannot access new material. It keeps dumping me into the sales pitch for the upgraded account. Its been very frustrating.
    3. We had a half dozen or so reports of this and have sent the issue up to our development team. If you can try a different browser it typically corrects itself. Some initial investigation where users were able to share details for testing suggests some browser security add-ons may cause difficulty with loading in necessary cookies, as well as another possible issue with some versions of another browser for similar reasons. If you continue to have issues please let us know by visiting the site, using the Help icon in any page of our site (lower right of screen) and choose Contact Us to open a support ticket where we can help you further and ensure you have access, as no programming is meant for paying subscribers to be redirected to purchase what they already have. We prioritize such issues, and are working to resolve. Thank you!
  • Where can I find the Notes file from Camp Logos to download?
    1. I mam not finding it there but then again I hadn't shared it from groups
    2. any file that is in the groups or public section should easily transfer to yours. Right click on it, then left click where it says add to docs. You're sure it's not already in Yours files?
    3. My issue was probably not having the correct file number though the date of issue should have been around the original camp sessions I assumed
  • Is there a way to duplicate a personal workflow? I put one together that I would like to edit for a Bible Study Group. However, I would like to retain the original.
    1. Steve, for others to see your custom workflow you'll need to 'share' it. To share it, click on the three dot icon and select share. You can share publicly or to a group, should your Bible study group have a group in Faithlife.
    2. Jerry, open the Guides menu and look for the small grey dropdown on the lower right "New". There you can choose to create a new template. To edit the template you can consult https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018252991-Workflow-Editor
    3. All individual items are listed in Sermon Manager. They can immediately be duplicated, copied, etc by right clicking (or …) next to the entry.
  • I'm a pastor/teacher, and while I'm catching up on my weekly training with Joshua Rowe, he uses a highlighting program that lets him show us information by marking up teaching materials to help us understand how to use a particular program. I have a Windows 11 gaming computer, and I would like to teach my students using Joshua's method, showing them a red marker to indicate what to do. Thank you in advance for your help.
    1. What is the Mac version? Joshua uses a Mac, so I'm thinking there is one.
    2. Bob, I think he said the presenter software he uses for Mac is called Presentify.
    3. That is correct for Mac, presentify.
  • To public

    Sorry! Where do I find the Bible Reading Techniques notes Joshua mentioned in Camp Logos?
    1. K. I'll re-watch the Prep Video this evening. If I get stuck, listen for my scream. ;)
    2. Haha...don't scream, just give us a shout through our ticket system or the chat -- remember there's 30m before the starting session where we're available to help!
    3. Is this the John Alger that lived in Iroquois Point housing in the 1970's? If so, please contact Yogi at yogaert@gmail.com!
  • Can MP Seminars consider doing a series on making the best use of Reader Editions? Sadly, the days of Logos consistently and robustly tagging academic resources appear to be behind us. Many newer academic titles are no longer tagged for research in the way many of us have grown accustomed to over the years. To be clear, the vast library of resources that were carefully tagged in earlier years will remain valuable for a long time. Those tools are not going away, and they continue to support serious academic work. However, for those of us who want to meaningfully engage with new and emerging scholarship, the reality is changing. Increasingly, we are going to have to do more of the heavy lifting ourselves. Reader Editions are becoming more central to that work, whether we like it or not. Because of this shift, a practical series on how to get the most out of Reader Editions would be incredibly helpful. Guidance on workflows, annotation strategies, and ways to compensate for the lack of traditional tagging would serve a lot of users who are trying to stay current without abandoning Logos as a research environment. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
    1. The main reason I have for books in Logos is for note taking. In using the Notes tool you are creating your own tagging system. Make links 🔗 to other books and add tags at the bottom of the notes. Review MP’s videos on Notes.
    2. Faithlife bot reply: "Regarding your question about Logos and academic resource tagging: Based on the information available, there is no official statement indicating that Logos has stopped consistently or robustly tagging academic resources. Logos continues to provide access to tagged media and resources within its platform. If you have a specific concern about a particular resource or tagging feature, please let me know, and I can look into it further for you. Is there anything else I can assist you with?"
    3. You could use Microsoft's Snipping tool to capture the notes you want to take. Just a thought. I use it for a lot of things.
  • If you are familiar with WordSearch you could select your favorite books by marking them. How do I put together a favorites collection?
    1. You can create a Collection which is found under Documents. Here is a sample collection I have made for all of my books by Martyn Lloyd-Jones. The nice thing is that whenever I buy a new book written by him, it is automatically added to my collection because of the criteria I entered under "Start with Books Matching." So you could title a collection "Favorites" and add as many books as you wish. Hope this helps (I think I learned about this from one of Morris Proctor's videos a long time ago ❤️). Once you have made a collection it shows up in your Library under the Collection filter.
    2. Another option is to use tags. Create a "Favorites" tag and tag your favorite books with that. It will show up in your Library under the MyTags filter. Morris Proctor had a system for tagging books that he shared under his video about searching your books. I downloaded his tags and have been slowly working through my entire library to implement his and some I have added.
