Keith,
Yeah, I finally got it working. For some reason the software wasn't actually
loading a bible. When I turned on the "show upon start up," in the preferences
pane, it began to work. I'm very happy! I really do appreciate the help.
However, this does bring up another question, now that the software is working
for me. I know you can get many free bibles, commentaries, dictionaries, & etc
from crosswire. Of course, many of these items are older or out of copyright
protection. I'm not complaining, mind you. But, I love the NLT or New Living
Translation & the Bible Knowledge Commentary. Is there any provision for
purchasing newer titles for MacSword--Eloquent?
Again, thanks,
CJ
