Did you try to completely close the app (remove it from the multitask bar) ? Rebooting the iPad remembers the previous state and keeps the app open.

Yes, I removed the app from the multitask bar before restarting.

I attempted to send a support ticket before making this post but get the message that I'm not allowed since I do not have a 'premium' membership.

Ken, thank you for PM'ing, i just sent you the email about not finding any crash logs on my connected iMac.

@ SilentBob1138:  my collection is only on the iPad 2, purchasing the app was my first encounter with DVD Profiler software on any platform.  I have not yet backed up my iPad 2 in iTunes.

I am wondering if I can back up my collection on the iPad 2 to the Mac or Windows based DVD Profiler, then delete and reinstall the app onto my iPad 2, then download the collection from the computer back to the iPad 2?

I love the interface of DVD Profiler, it is far superior to the other 4 apps I bought for cataloging, and I hope i can start using it.  I don't mind being an iPad 2 guinea pig because my issue may end up helping others.

It's worth a try. Really depends on how soon the app crashes. The initial sync takes a few minutes. Just download the free version of DVDP for Windows (there is no Mac version yet) and try to sync. If you manage to transfer your collection to the Windows version, make a backup of the database, delete the app on your iPad, reinstall and sync the collection back to the iPad.

Apple released iOS 4.3.1 yesterday. Maybe whatever bugs were fixed also helps with your problems. It's not very likely, but worth a try.

For reference, I have an iPad 2 and haven't had any crashing issues, so it isn't the device in general.

How many movies do you have catalogued in the app?  Mine did not seem to crash until a had the 499 all scanned in.

All I can suggest is to run a database repair.  I had a problem when I first installed the app on my iPad getting it to sync.  But I realized the same problem was occurring on my iPhone, so I realized that it had to be the DB.  I would suggest doing a Database Repair, delete the app and reinstall it on the iPad, then try the sync.

WOW, 17,417 titles in your library??!! 

Thanks to the suggestions made in this thread.  I am happy to report I now have DVD Profiler working beautifully on my iPad 2.  I was able to back up the collection from the iPad to the free PC version, run the database repair utility on the PC, delete the app and reset the iPad, then reinstall the app and connect to the PC version to download the collection.

The database repair found and fixed several errors and I'm wondering if those were caused by some faulty scan attempts that occured when using the iPad camera to scan barcodes on intitial data entry.

I run also fine iPad 2 with over 2'200 dvd and blu-ray. The good thing is, you see the more power it has when scrolling though the image galery. That works now smooth and fast, on first iPad it sometimes stuck a moment. Nice to have the new power and also graphic power in iPad 2 now.
