[bd-users] BD - Not Finding Files on 2nd Opening

[Daniel Ostendorff]

 Thanks Peter.

I tried this last night.  The only option under "Tools" is books, so I'm assuming it is under preferences.  I tried to change the path that it was directed to under "Sword books", but that didn't work either.  It still restarting saying that no books are installed, although they previously were.

Any other ideas?  Thanks for your help!

Should I be using the "night build" or the 1.7 version?

Daniel

Long time I used OSX and never used BD or MacSword on it. But as a first guess - is your module path correct?

As such BD shoudl find modules in all dafault positions and a few odd ones too, but i ftrhere is a problem you might want to set the path by hand?

If you go into Tool->Options you can set the path to modules.
