| | Posted: | | | | Yes, go to where you would normally upload your database in the program. But instead of selecting upload, select download and your online collection will be downloaded, overwriting your current database. |

Does anyone know if there is a way to recover your database from online? Online -> DVD Profiler Online -> (Username/Password) Next -> (Download radio button) Next -> Next Though this should only be used as an emergency and regular backups are the best thing to do because your online collection does not contain 100% of your data. | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

But I thought it wasn't true anymore about the personal adjustments to profiles since 3.0? That our whole personal database was uploaded? |

| | Posted: | | | | That's good to know - I also thought you lost your personal info too when uploading.
So even stuff like location is stored? |
