The Pro application can be purchased by clicking here and The Free application can be downloaded by clicking here.

 

Introduction

My Movies for Mac OS X allows you to catalog your entire movie collection from our high quality online data service containing data for more than 500,000 DVD, Blu-ray and HD DVD titles from various countries. The application supports Mac OS X 10.6 and higher.

My Movies for Mac OS X requires you to create a user account, or log on to an existing My Movies account to be able to use the program. Your collection will follow your user account through our online servers, allowing you to switch between different clients without ever loosing your data. If you log in to an existing My Movies account, your current collection will automatically be synchronized to My Movies for Mac OS X. Users of My Movies for iPhone, iPad or Android will automatically have their collection synchronized between My Movies for Mac OS X and your movie devices.

Availability

My Movies for Mac OS X is available in two different versions; an unlimited “Pro” application, available for purchase through the Mac App Store, and a “Free” application which is identical to the “Pro” version, but limited to 50 titles, a limitation that can be lifted either through contribution points or purchased points.

The Pro application can be purchased by clicking here.

The free application is at this time not available through the App Store, but instead available as a direct download on this page. This is due to Apple not allowing for trial software on the App Store.

The Free application can be downloaded by clicking here.

Limitations in Free version

The application is available in a version for free download, which is limited to 50 titles. This title limitation can be lifted by contributing data to our online service, for which you will receive contribution points. The limitation of 50 titles will be lifted by one title for each 10 contribution or purchased points on your user account, when you have 2,500 points in total, the limitation will be lifted fully. This means that if you have 500 points, you will have access to 100 titles (50 + 500 / 10), if you have 1,000 points, you will have access to 150 titles (50 + 1000 / 10). There are no functionality differences between the “Free” and the “Pro” version of the application – the only difference is the limitation, the application name and logo.

To allow you to contribute data for your full collection of titles through the “Free” application, you may add titles even after having reached the title limitation, and you will also be able to synchronize an existing collection containing more titles than the title limitation – titles above the title limitation will instead have several limitations applied to them, which means you are unable to preview the data, edit personal information and similar – you can however still edit and improve the title profiles, contribute your improvements, and by doing that earn contribution points to lift the title limitation.

Notice! Contribution points and purchased points does not lift the 50 title limitation in My Movies for iPhone, iPad or Android.
