Mac Forum / General / Networking / September 2005Backing up your Cell Phone Phonebook?
What apps are you using to connect to your phone and back up the phonebook? OnSync won't work with my phone. Confirmed with author that I'm at a dead end with that solution. OS X 10.3.8.9 Thanks,  SignaturePlease, no "Go Google this" replies. I wouldn't ask a question here if I hadn't done that already.

His Mac would have to be rather old to have IrDA, unless he added some kind of adapter. I wonder if they even MAKE such adapters.

[quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > I use iSync. Motorola V710 I have been following this thread because i too have a Motorola v710 and a g4 Powerbook and have some questions. I believe i have to have iSync v2 to do this. Do i have to have Tiger for iSync v2 or can i get by with my current Panther? I did not install iSync when i setup Panther. Now when i open the installer, because of updates i am at 10.3.9, the installer will not touch it, without a clean wipe. I want to know can i use it for: Bluetooth modem? Mp3 player? Get pictures off? scheduler/calendar sync? Anything else neat? Signatureemail: t mcdanel att fast mail dott fm ["Followup-To:" header set to comp.sys.mac.apps.] > What apps are you using to connect to your phone and back up the phonebook? Depends on the phone. What kind do you have? Thus spake D P Schreber: > Depends on the phone. What kind do you have? PowerBook G3/400 (with IrDA); Nokia 6200 (with IrDA). Apparently iSync doesn't support IrDA, and OnSync supports IrDA but not this particular phone. Ideas? SignaturePlease, no "Go Google this" replies.

There's a kit with a cable with connectors for multiple phones, plus software, that's sold at the Apple stores. I would have bought it except the price is $99. So I'll continue to back up and edit my phone with my PC laptop using the free software from Nokia and the cable they sell at a reasonable price.

The software comes with the computer; it's called iSync. A dedicated cable should run only $15 to $25 from either the phone company or the service provider. Or you could get one on eBay.

It works great. iBook 500 dual-USB OS X 10.2.8 BitPim 0.7.25 Verizon LG VX6100 BitPim is ugly and un-Mac-like, but it's Open Source and it works. Make sure you get the right version for your OS. Got a cable off eBay for about $10. (The DataPilot cable I already had didn't work.) |
