I'm really sorry for that
But Apple is so slow at the moment... I send my update 1 week ago and no new. (last time update took 2 days)

For Child profiles, it's an another story
I will try to manage wish list first.

The iOS4 uodate was just released within the last hour.

I never got an answer about the API either.

The background downloading may work if you implement the multi-tasking functionality. From my understanding, it's not automatically added.

For IronWaffle, I'm sorry for that. It's true that I didn't make a lot of update, but I alway reply to all email/messages.. I do my best but My Movies Rack are not my full time job you know.
What is the name your new application ? Maybe I can get good ideas

I appreciate the apology, but it really isn't necessary.  If iOS4 hadn't broken the indexing in your app I'd have held out longer.  Still, I don't regret spending on your app and wouldn't discourage others from checking it out. 

As to what I switched to, it's made by Netwalk.  How I'd compare it...

1.  The biggest benefit of your app is the simplicity of setting it up.  Netwalk required all sorts of exporting, converting, reformatting, editing, zipping, unzipping, etc.  It made me appreciate all the more how easy it is to get a collection into your app.  (In fact, I bought their app a month or so ago and was so daunted I gave up until this weekend, but the scrolling issue which you have since fixed made it too difficult to use your app.  I'm glad to see this morning that your update came through!)

2.  Netwalk's app offers more appearance options, though on an iPod Touch/iPhone the list view which looks like yours is the easiest to use.  So it's kind of a useless bell & whistle (though it does have some nice graphics).

3.  Netwalk's app lets you change the images and they size properly where on your app they are stretched.  This doesn't matter to me, but may to others.  It also has coverflow, but it's buggy on iOS4

4.  Their app imports your ratings and some cast/crew info.  None is clickable or searchable, though, so it's of limited use.

5.  Their app automatically ignores the "A", "An" and "The" in front of titles.  You're supposed to be able to add other words (like La, El, Il and other foreign articles) to their ignore list, but I find it only crashes the app.

6.  Have I mentioned what a pain the butt it was to set up Netwalk?  On the plus side, going forward I can add titles directly to it and avoid all that hassle.  But now it's like maintaining two databases.  Another drawback of their software.


That's what comes to mind.  For what it's worth, I stumbled over this site yesterday:  http://appadvice.com/appguides/show/apps-for-movie-cataloging.  Of those apps, I did get a free copy of iCollect Movies, it's most highly recommended (gotta love macrumors app board!) but they don't offer any support for DVDProfiler importing, so even though it looks pretty great, it's starting from scratch.

Ah, I see it now. Actually 90% of my collection is before A
Samuel, is that something that could get fixed by completely restarting...?

Yes I think you need to reset your database. 

I just downloaded your update and had some new titles to add to the list so reset the list...now my letter selection on the right side is gone.  It seems to "hang" for a long time about half way through the resetting process but then when it ends, the list is there, but the letter jump isn't.  I can scroll through it, but that takes forever when you're looking for something in the "s"s.  I've powered down by iTouch and tried again.  Same results.

Am I doing something wrong to reset it?

I deleted it to reinstall as you suggested, but now the application is saying it's 1.99 again.  Will I be charged if I download again?

Thanks! I've never redownloaded something before so I didn't know about that little quirk. I agree...It did make me hesitate. I know that I do have it backed up on another computer, so I figured I could get the old version back, so wasn't too worried, but that's very not customer friendly of Apple!
