I just got a sony ericsson m600i and have discovered that it doesn't sync with ical or anything mac. i have osx latest update on a mac book pro and can't seem to find anything that helps. Anyone know of a work around on this or the timimg of an isync update to cover this rather big gap?
Just got a new Sony Ericsson cell phone (model W350). It's one of the Sony "Walkman" phone.I was surprised to see no Mac support, but someone said there was a way to get music from your Mac to the cell phone.I tried connecting using the provided USB cable and iSync but nothing happened.
I'm trying to connect a Sony Ericsson phone with my MacBook via Bluetooth. I've got them paired okay, but when I try to send files from the phone to my Mac, it tries to connect, gets connected for like a couple of seconds and then fails again. I've tried to connect to the MacBook several times on the phone and every time it fails.
I know this might be a little out of track, but this is the only technical forum I go to on the net and my question is mac related!
I resently messed up my cell phone and need a new one, and of cause I want one that communicate well with mac! so has anybody got some experience in how Sony Ericssons work with mac?
this phone only comes with p.c.software. I am going round in circles trying to get it connected to my mac. Sony say apple wont let sony give the software away with the phone! Can this be true?! Can someone point me in the right direction
I have a seriously annoying problem. I recently bought a Sony Ericsson w200i which arrived in the mail today. Cheerfully i connected it to my Powerbook using the included USB-cable which promtly brought up a 'you need to restart your computer'-screen in a few different languages. I can only remember having seen that screen once before in the 2 years i've had the Powerbook and then it was an exception but with the W200 it happens every damn time. Basically i'm just throwing this one out here because i can't find any info on this anywhere on the internet including these forums and Sony Ericssons support(i've mailed them but no response so far). I did find one thread where a poster says he simply connects it like i do but i don't know if he's got an intel or ppc.
My computer: Powerbook G4 1.67 ghz with OSX 10.4.2.
We've been talking about this new behemoth from Sony in the Macbook Air forums as it's the same weight as an MBA (it's a premium ultraportable!) but the specs on it are so phenomenal that it'll surely take some beating even from an MBP update.Design: Aluminium + Carbon FiberWeight: 3.07lbs or 3.3lbs (depending on which Sony website you visit)Screen: 13.1", 1920 x 1080 Resolution CPU: Core i7-620M. 2.66GHz, 3.33GHz Turbo. 35W TDP. 4MB L2 CacheRAM: 8GB DDR3 SDD: 512GB (Raid 0 available)Graphics: Nvidia 330M GT 1GB GDDR3 and Intel HD integrated - switchable
i am currently using snow leopard, and I am waiting for this summer to update to mountain lion. Right now, I need the a new feature of imovie for my project, so I am thinking about buying Life 11 at this moment. However, I just want to make sure that, will updating my OS X includes updating my imovie, iphoto and everything? If yes, then I probably dont need to buy Life 11 to update my imovie now/
This is my first post here at MacRumors.com and I'm quite happy to be here posting as it's a good sign for myself and Apple. I am a Windows user for 15 years and Apple really has come so far in recent years that it is maybe time for change.There are a few problems and I'd like if you have the time to give your opinion:In recent months and especially during the time of the latest MacBook Pro I was pretty impressed and tempted to buy a MBP 17" to upgrade my 2007 Sony 15" Core2Duo Vaio. The time has come for an upgrade in April 2010 as I simply cannot wait any longer, I have become to involved in following stories here at MacRumors and even looking at Sony's offerings.
Anyone been able to successfully sync a Nokia E52 phone with the OS X Address Book via iSync? Currently there's no official isync plugin from Nokia, only these two third party ones that I know about:
This free one created by a user which I couldn't get to work.
And this paid one I'd rather not buy without confirmation that it actually works.
I am trying to isync my C5-00 Nokia phone with my new mac book pro 10.7.4. The latest update from Nokia for isync is for a mac book 10.6 which doesnt work on my mac 10.7.4. Is there a later update or anything else I can do to back up my phone contacts to my mac. Note; my phone is unable to connect to the internet to use phonecopy or anything like that. I need to be able to just plug the phone into the mac and transfer that way if possible.
I had permission troubles, but iSync was working perfectly. I repaired all permissions with Leopard, then upgraded to Snow Leopard, now when I try to open iSync, I get this message:
I have a Samsung M300 cellphone and was disappointed to learn that it is not supported by iSync for address book, calendar syncing. I checked several add on utilities like BitPIM, BluePhone Elite, Nova Media iSync plugins and none seem to support this phone. Should I give up hope of synching? Even with a cable?
After upgrading to 10.5.2, I have found that it is impossible to launch iSync, from either the dock or the Applications folder. iSync will do one bounce on the dock, and no more, then disappear. I have repaired permissions by booting up with the Leopard disc. I have created another account and logged into that account.
Here's where it gets interesting. Only users without my account name can run iSync! I can create as many permutations of users, and they can all run the application, but as soon as a user has MY name as an account name, I can't launch iSync! iSync refuses to launch on any account with my name What the heck?! Does it know me by name? Ihave a Macbook 2.0 CD2. I am running standard Mac OS X 10.5 + iLife '08 + iWork '08.
I am a bit desperate because I accidentally deleted all my phone contacts using iSync. Previous to the sync I had my contacts in my mac address book, but I deleted them to make a fresh list from my phone. Therefore my address book was empty when I did the sync. I thought that the contacts from the phone would be copied to the computer. But instead, when I did the sync all the contacts from the phone were deleted! I did a search in google and found that the version of Address Book under Tiger kept a file called ddressBook.data.previous that contained your contacts before the last change. But I cannot find that file in Leopard. Does anyone have an idea of where that file is? Or does anyone have a suggestion about how to recover my phone numbers?
I recently bought a Nokia 3120 classic, I was able to fin a plug in that will replace one of iSync�s metadata.plist list of one of the Nokias, and then it will sync and everything will work fine in Leopard 10.5 Now that I�ve updated to Snow Leopard it just won�t, even if I do the previous proceeding. My macbook paires with the phone, and the phone with the MB, but neither iSync or File sharing via Bluetooth work
I've been looking for this plugins for almost 2 days now, unfortunately I can only find a paid app from nova media. Could anyone help me find a free plugin for this? or if you made your own plugin for this specific phone would you mind sharing it.
Bought a new phone and its not supported by isync (Motorola Renegade V950), like the phone and would like all my contacts in it. Store was unable to get my #'s to come across using their little black box.
Is there anyway to get the address book into a format that I can get xp in parallels to send to my new phone?
