Follow- Because Proclaim 4.12.0.0159 on macOS 15.5 wouldn't open, I renamed the Proclaim folder under ~/Library/Application Support to force it to re-download everything. (I thought the culprit might be a corrupted file.) Proclaim opens now, but is taking a very long time to download ~16 GB (the size of the first Proclaim folder). (Taking about 1 hour to download 4 GBs -- slower than it should be with our internet speed.) When I skip downloading this, Proclaim won't find our most current sets. Is there anyway around this?
- Update: I was able to access current sets after it downloaded ~ 3 GBs.
- Another update: Proclaim wouldn't open again, but I downloaded Proclaim 4.12.0.0160 and manually installed it … and it worked. <https://faithlife.github.io/ProclaimReleaseNotes/>

Proclaim crashed upon loading the newest update; previously I had been running 4.9 from February. System restore failed to restore it to working order. It still crashes (after reverting to 4.9) before it opens.
- When I click on Browse Media, it opens on my Confidence screen (3) instead of my main screen(1). Proclaim is open on the main screen. This just started today. What do I need to do to get it to open on the main screen?
- The Media Browser is a separate window from Proclaim. I wonder if it was accidentaly dragged to the confidence monitor? Have you tried dragging it back to the main screen? If it's a Windows computer, open the Media Browser, then hold down the Windows key and the Shift key and press the left or right arrow key to move it to a different screen.
- I cannot right click on anything in Proclaim on MacOS without causing Proclaim to crash. It's been this way for the last several versions. I have to go to a Windows machine to save a slide as a .jpg as a result.
- apple® MacOS® has different rules from Microsoft® Windows®, red hat® Enterprise™, debian®, ubuntu®, &c. Make sure that ye follow them.
- Thanks for the report . This sounds really frustrating. Would you please submit logs from Proclaim's Help menu? We'll take a look and see if we can figure out what's going on.
- Thank you, Brandon, I have just done so.
- Is there any way to save two versions of the same song? I tried doing something small with the title but it still converts every time we have sung the song to the last update. Does not retain one before changes
- I'm afraid it's actually rather complicated. How to save two different versions of a song depends on what kind of differences you want between the two versions. If it's what I would call style changes (background, margins, alignment, font face, font size, color, effects, etc.), then 's method works well. If it's a matter of verse order (one worship leader skips verse 3, while another uses all 4 verses, and another sings the chorus twice at the end, etc.) then you need to set up different arrangements for each of the possible verse orders. Once set up, it's easy to switch to the verse order you want. See https://support.proclaim.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/19864390407565-Custom-Slide-Order-For-Songs. Note: posted while I was composing my post. I think they're saying that this method doesn't work for them, though it worked for me the last time I tried it. If you're wanting differences in the song content (actual words, line breaks, slide breaks, title, copyright info, etc.), that gets tricky. That is stored in the song database, which all versions of the song share. You can't change this info in one version without affecting all versions of the same song. If the song is in the public domain and you don't refer to a CCLI number, you could make the two versions into two different songs. But if it needs a CCLI number, I don't think that would work. Now I haven't tried to do this, but I don't know of a way to keep two versions of a copyrighted song separate.
- For different versions, I use the 'arrangement'. One arrangement for the worship team and I save another under a new arrangement.
- Hi Karen, it's best to create a new arrangement for multiple 'versions' of the same song. You can see all of your arrangements and create new ones in the Song Library, you can also create a duplicate arrangement or start with a new 'blank arrangement' when viewing the Song Item. Let us know how it goes!
- Okay ... I'm not an Apple guy AT ALL! So iPad users ... what setting do I have wrong in our iPad that the Proclaim Remote just closes suddenly. It appears to have to do with length of time it is up and running maybe? What setting on iPad or with Proclaim Remote do I have to adjust? THANKS in advance. (A dedicated PC/Android user! :-) but with an iPad on hand for other reasons.
- that sounds like it is crashing... not something with the iPad specifically. Could you go to the about menu in the Proclaim app (three lines in the upper right) and 'Send support info{
- Logos is also taking long to sync
- I did that, but the video doesn't show on our confidence monitor, which is a problem. Anyone know a work around for that?
- Yes, , there is a work around -- the person who is running Proclaim would have to go to Settings > Display and then choose Slides for the Confidence monitor. The option to change these settings while On Air has only been available for a year or so.
- Not all Youtube videos will play using this method. Some videos on Youtube are protected. Just last week I attempted to use a video from Youtube shared by a company employee of this video; however, I still required the mp4 version as it would not play the Youtube video within Proclaim. Sometimes you can use converter software to do this, while other times it doesn't work.
- I'm awaiting digitization of 日本聖書協会 Japan Bible Society, 聖書協会共同訳聖書 Bible Society Interconfessional Version Bible (ja: ꜱᴇɪꜱʏoᴋʏōᴋᴀɪᴋʏōᴅōʏᴀᴋᴜꜱᴇɪꜱʏo) (日本国東京都 ᴛōᴋʏōᴛᴏ, JPN: 日本聖書協会 Japan Bible Society, 2018). Arthur L. Farstad et al., New King James Version (New York, NY, USA: Thomas Nelson, 1973), and other Bibles in English are available from Logos.
- Yes, but as Logos is a free download that should not be a problem. The bibles in Logos are many, varied, and inexpensive.
- More than what? I find many different translations available. At least all of the most popular ones and some obscure ones. We don't pay for anything extra.
- Good Day, I have updated Proclaim twice, and now the app is not opening. Could some information or guidance be provided to help navigate this, please?

I made an error in something at 篠田乃堂 ShinoDa Hall, 胡桃河市日系基督教會 Japanese Christian Church of Walnut Creek (CA, USA); is correcting it. I've yet to repair my installation.- HI Reco - You would need to tell us which system you are using and any error messages that you are getting.
- I just imported a PowerPoint file (on Mac so the conversion is done by Keynote) as images, and was shocked at the quality. I found Keynote is exporting at 960x540 pixels, and there seems no way change that. I have done the import via Keynote previously and not noticed any issues. Has Keynote been crippled recently, or have I just been unaware? Fortunately I was able to export the slides from PowerPoint, and could specify the desired resolution.
- OK, I found that in Keynote you can specify the slide size, but this seems to default to 960x540. And that's what the Proclaim import will use. So open the file in Keynote, set the slide size, export to images and import the images into Proclaim. So much for automation!

I'm getting a larger projector for 篠田乃堂 ShinoDa Hall, 胡桃河市日系基督教會 of Walnut Creek (CA, USA). I anticipate classical Yashar-Eli and modern Hellenic for a virtual 神棚 Kamudana: חן עלכם ושלום ביהוה אבון ובאדנון ישוע משיחו Χάρις ὑμιν καὶ ειρήνη απὸ Θᴇᴏʏ Πατρὸυ ήμων καὶ Κυρίου Ίησου Χριστου. on the screen.
