Firstly, thank you for adding the ability to sync w/the online database.  It appears that even when syncing online, it is still a manual process meaning I have to initiate the sync from my iPod. Is this accurate or is there a setting for automatic sync on the iOS version that I haven't found?

Also, on the PC version, I want to enable automatic uploads when exiting the program but cannot check that box without a Mobile registration key. Where can I find my Mobile registration key in iOS, or is that an additional purchase above and beyond the DVDProfiler PC program and iOS program?

Thanks!

The "Automatic Mobile Synchronization" setting is for DVD Profiler Mobile, and doesn't have anything to do with iOS or DVD Profiler Online.

To automatically sync with DVD Profiler online at close, create a command file called 'shutdown.txt' in your Documents\DVD Profiler directory with the following content:

DVDProfilerOnlineSync Upload

See the help file, Advanced Topics section for details.

Awesome. Thanks! I will try that.

Is there a similar setting in the iOS version to have it sync at startup in the background if an internet connection is present or sync automatically at present intervals? If not, I will add it to the feature request thread.

Thanks again.

No, there's no automated method in the iOS version at this time.

Another sync question:  my iOS and desktop databases are out of sync.  iOS has been updated regularly but the out-of-date desktop database has profiles that were hidden from iOS/mobile sync.  Can these be merged via online sync?

I have the same situation and am interested in the answer!

Also, can we go back and forth with how we sync desktop and ios?  Sometimes sync online with ipad and then with online with desktop, sometimes sync desktop online and then ipad online, sometimes desktop to ipad, etc.  Will all of the additions sync without issues?
