| | Posted: November 29, 2014 3:47 PM | | | | Hi everyone,
I am new to iOS, I used to be a Windows-User but I switched to Mac so now I am left with the DVD-Profiler Version on iPad. That is no problem, actually. But: I do not seem to find any option to "contribute" a new DVD to the official DVD-Profiler database. How do I do that? I have of course the custom entry, but I cannot add the minimal features required (on Windows) to contribute a DVD. So, if this is not available, I would appreciate this feature in the next release. I did contribute a lot of DVDs in the past, and I would like to go on doing so.
Best regards & thanks

There are several ways to run DVDP on a Mac. 1) Crossover is a program that lets you run Windows programs on a Mac without using Windows. There's a free trial available. I never got it to run well, but it might work for you. 2) Run Windows in a virtual machine Like Parallels Desktop and VM Ware Fusion on your Mac. 3) Use the built-in Boot Camp assistant to make a Windows partition on your Mac. This only works with Windows 7 and 8. You will need to reboot your Mac to the Windows partition to use DVDP. 4) Join the club and ask Ken for a Mac version of DVDP. Then wait forever.  |
