ISync Nokia 8800

BTFE works fine with my Nokia 8800 but I can't get it to sync - the bluetooth connection drops on the handset.
It's listed as compatible with iSync on the Support site. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, are there any known workarounds?
Imac Intel Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.4.7)

This is a Nokia Series 40 mobile phone. The series indicates the operating system on a Nokia. A Nokia Series 60, 80 or 90 is based on Symbian OS. Nokia Series 30 and 40 are based on Nokia's own operating system.
Apple iSync 1.5 and 2.1 supports Symbian OS based mobile phones but no Nokia Series 40 phones. Search for the various topics about the Nokia 6230 and have a look at MacMedia PhoneDirector.

Sync Nokia 8800 with Mac OsX

Hi.
Does anyone know how to sync a Nokia 8800 with Mac OsX, in order to get all contacts over to an iPhone.
Is there a free software out there (whyever Nokia doesn´t provide one).
Thx,
Mike
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Nokia used to produce Mac versions of the PC Suite software back in the long-gone days of the early Communicator series, but Apple applied pressure for that to stop, because they wanted all Apple users to sync with their own iSync software.
Regretably, Apple is not great at ensuring compatibility with all phones from all manufacturers. For more information, go to http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/product-support/isync/compatibility-and-download - you will see that the original Nokia 8800 is compatible with iSync but that subsequent versions like 880 Sirocco, 8800 Arte etc. are not yet covered.
iSync itself is made by Apple, and the Nokia site will link to Apple to download it. Nokia does provide some plugins to make some common models work, but I don't think that later 8800 versions are included. It is possible to search for third-party plgins that may solve the issue if your 8800 is not the original model.

Nokia 8800 Arte and iMac OSX 10.6

Tried to synchronize the Nokia 8800 Arte with the iMac OSX 10.6. Bluetooth connection works, so exchange of films and photo's are OK. Synchronization via blue tooth iSync does not function because iMac does not have 'plug-in'. Nokia does not provide a solution. Also PC Suite for Nokia 8800 Arte and iMac OSX 10.6 is not available at Nokia support/downloads. Nokia support promised to ask for investigation of the possibility of developing and verifying a solution.

Hi PAHU, thanks for helping. I´ve tried 2 different and brand new cables and still nothing appears on the USB list in System Profiler. I´ve tried restarting both with printer and off, etc, still it aint there. Connecting my iPhone to the same USB ports, the iPhone shows up in System Profiler, so the ports must be ok.
I tried connecting the printer to my girlfriends Macbook Pro, OS X 10.6.4. and the printer does show up on the System Profiler. The printer seems to be online but when I tried to print a page of text, it "went offline" and gave an error 306A "communication error blabla". I downloaded a new driver from Canons site and now it says its printing, the printer starts blinking its green light, but nothing happens except it switches to saying the printer is offline.
This is very confusing...

Nokia 8800 Sapphire Arte - Desperately want 1!

Not sure if I am posting in the right place but I would like some advice please...
End of last year I looked into buying a Nokia 8800 Sapphire Arte and found a good deal with Orange. However as I was going abroad for a couple of months and wouldn't be using the phone, I thought it pointless to sign up to a new contract however upon my return the phone had disappeared off their website and off every other network provider's too! I have looked everywhere and cannot find a single contract deal anywhere.
I have seen the Carbon Arte but don't like it as much as the Sapphire version so does anyone have any idea why it's not available anywhere? or if you know of a deal, please let me know asap.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.

it will be available somewhere might take some searching though ,have you tried any good online retailers
heres a place ive found i dont no there rep as im not living in uk

DT-8 Stand for Nokia 8800

Hello All,
I am trying to find an extra desk stand for my Nokia 8800, but it looks like official Nokia stores do not offer one. My local retailer doesn't have one either.
There are some on ebay, of course sellers claim that there are authentic, but I can hardly believe this. Also, found one on this site http://www.directmobileaccessories.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=2236 but also have doubts about it being genuine Nokia item.
I will appreciate any advises and comments.
Regards,
Denis

I'm sure one has been found in the 2 years since the original post was made

NOKIA 8800 CARBON ARTE HELP!!!!!

Hi
I have a Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte, cannot seem to get predictive text messaging in English, its only Chinese and other languages. Can anyone help with this please.
Also, when I download my software and pit my USB cable in, nothing happens. Help please.
Thank you in advance

All Nokia phones have English and other languages.
The fact that yours doesn't and that the phone isn't recognized when you plug it into your computer leads me to believe that you have a fake. There's a huge number of fake 8800's available on the web, in particular in places such as eBay where most phones on sale are fakes.

Nokia 8800 contact in first name sequence only?

I'm able to sync my Nokia 8800 with my powerbook, but is the contact order in first name sequence only? Is there any way to arrange it in Last Name basis?
Thanks in advance for your help.

i just noticed that of my 462 contacts, about 90% of them have the first name in the last name box and vice versa. i input each one of the contacts and have synced several times between my iphone, gmail and my 4 mac computers. i have seen that you can sort by first name or last name, but this is not a sorting issue. the first and last names have physically switched locations. i noticed this so i turned off mobile me and it did not sync with my iPhone. i think i will have to just reload the contacts on the one computer but i still don't understand what happened.

Nokia 8800 Sirocco - good or bad buy?

I'm thinking of entering into my first contract tomorrow and wanted an Nokia 8800 Sirocco
My friend works for a phone shop and can get me one on Orange.
Would anyone avoid it? I heard the battery life was terrible on the 8800, is it the same issue with the sirocco? Also, I have a N70 at the moment but don't use email, from reading the forum it appears people are having a lot of trouble with email? Is it something that goes wrong even if you don't use email?
Any advice would be very welcome
Cheers
Rob

Ive read and heard from friends that the battery has been improved from the 8800 series although it is supplied with two batteries also.
I have the original 8800 and im very satisfied with it.
I dont use the camera and music,video and bluetooth functions which all add up to drain the battery.
I get 2-3 days from each battery.
The scricco has a better camera {which i dont use} and has the powersaver option cured. ie : it scrolls down the screen unlike the 8800 which does not which in time caused the lcd screen burn. It has also a better keypad, although im not sure about the thumb indentation on the slider..lol
My advice is go for it and you have been offered a decent contract too !!
I would try for a 12 month contract tho.
Some users have experienced difficulty when attempting to use the e mail function as it disappeared from the menu system when accessed. If you use e mail from your service provider then ask to try a demo fone to see what happens.
I dont use it myself as my provider gets enough money from me as it is..lol
Good luck with your choice and yes im well jealous....

Car Kit for Nokia 8800

Can any one suggest the best hands free car kit that the nokia 8800 is compatible with.

You may use a 616 car kit which has display and your phone will support sim access so you can download your contacts.

Truth about nokia 8800 Sirocco by myself and the d...

right i saw a lot of people that need help with this issue
well first of all there is the nokia 8800 sirocco Gold and the 8800 sirocco Gold Look, don,t be mistaken the second is not a fake it is acctualy a normal silver sirocco with a gold brush.
the firt one is 18k Gold not all gold but a small layer of gold over it.
how to spot a fake!
any IDIOT that still believes that a 8xxx serie still says made in finland, dont even reply on this post cause you got a fake sirocco.
if you have a real 8800 sirocco or 8600 luna they both will say made in GERMANY.
second, the Gold look sirocco is about 385 to 450 euros.
a realy gold edition is around 650 to 800 euro's
third, a real sirocco Gold will have a Gold certificate if it does not have that its either the Gold look or a complete Fake.
fourth, if there are no letter on the back of the phone dont, buy it,it has to say nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold right in the middle of the back, if not dont buy it.
LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT
on this nokia site you will see my nokia, click on it make a my nokia account.
in this account you can put in imei numbers in of your nokia phone, if you got the brains this is your key for checking any imei of any nokia phone.
you will get feedback about what phone you have. this is the only true way to verify if you got the real thing!
i wish you all a good and luxery 8xxx day!

Help needed from Nokia 8800 users??

Which bluetooth adaptors/dongle are nokia 8800 users using? And also how much did they cost?
I need one for mine but i'm not sure which is the right one to get. Any help would be much appreciated!! Cheers!!

Do you mean bluetooth dongle for your PC ? I guess. My recommendation: buy a dongle that works with Microsoft Bluetooth software (assuming you have Windows XP with Service Pack 2, which has the Microsoft Bluetooth.
then everything is easy: you stick the USB dongle in, windows installs the drivers for it, you download PC Suite and start using the 8800 over Bluetooth.

Nokia 8800 "Insert SIM Card"

As soon as I started using my Nokia 8800 it continuosly came up with "Insert SIM card" even though the SIM is inserted. I tried three different SIM cards and received the same message with each although each SIM works fine with another model.
I took the phone to the nearest Nokia Repair Centre and they told me the phone was fine and it was the SIM that was faulty. I told them I had already tried three different SIM cards and the fault was present on all of them, they asked me to try with a new SIM, I eventually agreed, two hours later it was happening again.
I've heard that almost all Nokia 8800 users experience this fault now and again but with my phone it's happening continuosly.
Does anyone have any idea what causes this???
