| iOS 17.7 seems to work the same as previous versions. I think I'll stick with it for now. While others have reported iOS 18 is working OK as well, I see no pressing need to upgrade to it just yet. | Posted: Topic Replies: 21, Topic Views: 10324 |

Good to hear.
Out of caution, I just updated to iOS 17.7 and that seems to work OK. I'll now go ahead with an iOS 18 update but will wait for 18.1 as suggested. I hope we are good for another year, but I'm worried that when Apple adds AI to iOS 18, things may go south. | Posted: Topic Replies: 2, Topic Views: 39 |

I think people are sensitized to frequent long server outages due to Invelos' poor record in this area. I would expect this to be a rare and transient event for other servers nowadays.
Nice to hear good news for iOS 18, but I since I use my iPad as my primary input and editing device, I will remain skeptical until I try it out. | Posted: Topic Replies: 70, Topic Views: 6696 |

| Does Lowpro's comment "My Movies v5 and higher went to a mandatory sync model" mean they store your database online instead of locally? If so, what's wrong with that? | Posted: Topic Replies: 70, Topic Views: 6696 |

| This discussion is probably going to be very important for iOS users, since Apple just released iOS 18. I haven't tried it yet. | Posted: Topic Replies: 70, Topic Views: 6696 |

| Since they put in the new server, iOS devices can't properly upload items to the online database. Sadly, I don't expect this to change. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 632 |

| Yes. My charts are blank as well. I didn't notice it before since I hardly ever use charts. The same thing happens on my iPhone running iOS 12, so it is not an iOS 17 issue. It must be a server issue. I can live with it. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 632 |

| I have the same issue on my iPad, but if you search by UPC 883929773589, you will find it. | Posted: Topic Replies: 10, Topic Views: 632 |

| I generally agree and have put my evaluation efforts on the back burner for now. However, that could all change once iOS 18 rolls out. If things go south, I'm planning to move to MyMovies, since I've been impressed with their online customer support. | Posted: Topic Replies: 70, Topic Views: 6696 |

If you have an Intel Mac you can run Windows on it using Bootcamp. You can download a limited version of Windows 10 for free from MS.

| That's been the case for the iOS app ever since they installed their new server months ago. I doubt it will ever be fixed. Your only choice is to use the Windows app or move to another iOS app, such as MyMovies. | Posted: Topic Replies: 2, Topic Views: 463 |

| While it works great when BOTH PCs are open and running DVDProfiler, if I close the master PC app, the slave PC app loses connection to the database. So I guess the slave PC is not actually syncing its local database, as with an iPad, but rather opening the master PC's database remotely. The master PC is thus just acting as a server. This would therefore not be a useable option to transfer data from master to slave prior to reformatting the master PC. While an interesting feature if one has multiple PCs in running one's house, I guess I'll have to rely on syncing via the online database or a transferred master backup file prior to reformatting my master PC. | Posted: Topic Replies: 9, Topic Views: 1318 |

| I did what you said on my slave PC, sharing my master PC database with it as I had done with my iPad. It seems to work well. Syncs between the two PCs automatically. This is a bit different than syncing my iPad to my PC, which requires an extra step to initiate the sync. I'll have to play with it a bit, moving movies back and forth to feel confident enough to use it instead of syncing via the online database. It always amazes me how well designed and fully functional this app is. I'll be sad if I am forced to switch to another app to maintain iOS compatibility. Once again, thanks. | Posted: Topic Replies: 9, Topic Views: 1318 |

The second PC can be loaded from an exported database from the master, or an uploaded online database, or synced to the master using the remote connection
While I understand the first two, please explain your "remote connection" comment. I know how to do that with my iPad but how do I do that with another PC? | Posted: Topic Replies: 9, Topic Views: 1318 |

| I had trouble having both PCs using the same OneDrive stored database, even at different times. I kept getting multiple entries in the database folder, so I moved both databases to their respective local drives. This seemed the safest thing to do. Of course now I will have to sync up the slave PC using the online database, just as I used to do with my iPad. | Posted: Topic Replies: 9, Topic Views: 1318 |

Thanks. I'll be careful not to run DVDProfiler on both PCs at the same time and only sync my iPad to the "master". Of course when I decide to switch "master" PCs I assume I can then start syncing my iPad to the new "master". Correct?
My original "master" PC has a serious problem and I need to reformat its hard disk. I was hesitant to do this until I had another PC with DVDProfiler running since both PCs are actually iMacs running Bootcamp. | Posted: Topic Replies: 9, Topic Views: 1318 |

| I have added a second PC (iMac running Bootcamp) running DVDProfiler to my home network, anticipating eventually switching over to it. What is the best way to sync them and my iPad up? The two PCs seem to be using the same OneDrive cloud storage. | Posted: Topic Replies: 9, Topic Views: 1318 |

| Just installed 17.6.1. No changes noticed from 17.5. 18 may be another story. Keep your fingers crossed. | Posted: Topic Replies: 21, Topic Views: 10324 |

| In addition, make sure you typed the server name in properly on your iPad. It is at the bottom of the Windows DVDProfiler window. You can use the IP address instead, which is also at the bottom of the window. Try them both. One may work while the other won't. | Posted: Topic Replies: 49, Topic Views: 9415 |

Check your iPad DVD Profiler settings and make sure "local network" is switched on.
Also make sure your Windows PC local network is set to PRIVATE. See below on how to do this.

You have to have the Windows version of DVD Profiler running on your PC before you can sync to it from the iOS version.
In the Windows version, select "Synchronize with DVD Profiler Mobile" in the File menu and follow the diections. | Posted: Topic Replies: 49, Topic Views: 9415 |
