I usuallly have all my titles locked, but when I have ten to 20 titles to update weekly, the titles that are locked have to be 'each' and every one manually highlited and edit and turn off lock.,
Can you somehow highlite them all and then edit with one key stroke??

I'm not sure if there's a keystroke or combination which locks outright, but Alt+L will open the lock menu from the toolbar, and then pressing N will lock the entire DVD.

You don't need to unlock anything to accept an update (AFAIK).

On the comparison screen, just click the Partial Accept radio button, and anything you check supercedes your locks.

totally wrong,,  you HAVE you unlock to accept any new changes. I just had to manually unlock (individually)  11 updates..

My request was to do this in two steps not 33 steps ..

Don't know what your doing but all my DVD are totally locked, and when I do any update either manually one at a time,  or bring up the whole list of updates IT unlock them on the fly updates and then lock everything up tight again.

Funny, I've always done it the way I said above (partial accept, check what I want, changes accepted) and never had to unlock anything manually, and yes, I do use locks.

no, you don't have to unlock anything when you manually choose what to accept.

Updates do not happen daily.  Sometimes it will be two or three days before any updates are available.

That's just a coincidence.

Accepted contributions are processed automatically and integrated in the online database every night at around 1am.

I get updates every single day... what with new profiles being released within 24 hours anything that is approved already is released. I also see this in the contributions I do... as soon as one is set to approved it is released that very night... every single night... no matter what day of the week it is.

Yes. And it has been that way since Invelos' day 1.

Actually, in the first 2-3 weeks, we could get as much as 5 or even 6 updates A DAY.

Nope - it's totally right! I lock every field on every DVD, and when there is an update I manually check every part I want updated as explained by RossRoy;

So there is no need to unlock anything to get the updates...
