Multimedia transfer on mac

I got a new macbook pro and Im trying to get it to work with my nokia x6 32gig just like it did with my old macbook, but everything keeps failing on me. I've read all the discussions about it and nothing helps. I've downloaded the multimedia transfer software and uptaded it to the newer beta version and when I try to "add device" I follow the whole procedure to the end and still nothing works. its getting frustrating. I had some trouble with my old mac as well, but at least I somehow got it to work, but now I simply cant figure out what I'm doing wrong. the NMT tells me that the device has been added and that I can start transfering music, photos etc. but my phone does not appear under the NMT when I connect the phone. And I am not a moron, I'm connecting it in PC-suit mode! But I'm also aware that the NMT does NOT support the x6 although several people on the boards have gotten it to work. Please help or I'll be forced to sell the phone, I need my music on it asap!
Thanks in advance

I don't know anything about mac, but shouldn't your mac find the device if you connect it in mass storage mode? - If it does, you should be able to drag and drop pictures and music over to it?

Nokia e7 and multimedia transfer for mac

i have nokia e7 , and i want to transfer my multi media file to my macbook pro. the website are recommend me to use a multimedia transfer for mac. i download it and i find that my mac can not be paired with e7. is it because i do it wrong or is nokia multimedia transfer for mac does not support for e7 ?
thank you so much for letting me know about the solution for this problem
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well I have no one to blame because I'm not a Mac user, but with the number of complaints I would say Nokia, don't have the technical knowledge, but I can't imagine it would be a major problem to get some compatibility with a Mac via Ovi suite, also as the E7 is virtually identical software wise to N8, and anything 'N8' I've put on mine has worked, it should be compatible with Ovi for Mac, surely not a major coding issue ?
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

Mac Multimedia Transfer doesnt work wif E6

the iSync works fine and my E6 can be detected, but when i am trying to use the Multimedia Transfer Tool. It said my phone is not in PC Suite mode, but I am sure that my phone is in the Ovi Suite mode.
Can somebody tell what is the problem? or E6 is not supported with this tool?
Thanks so much.

Helpful information, then dont forget to hit the kudos star :-) Or say it accepted solution and thanks

Just a note for people who are as non observant as I was and who might find this useful...
My Nokia 6700 slide wouldn't sync, no matter what I did and even when I installed:
http://www.novamedia.de/en/mac-isync-plugins.html
or wrote my own plugins...
For some reason, by default, my Nokia came with Sync settings disabled on the phone.
So to remedy this, go to:
Settings > Connectivity > Sync >
And select all the things you want to sync before you run iSync. I missed this in the manual, I spent about 8 hours trying to fix it and all to no avail until I found this simple ommission.
Also, if you need to uninstall the nokia isync plugin, just go to:
/Library/PhonePlugins
and delete the relevant files.
Hope this is useful.

6085 profile for Mac Multimedia Transfer?? Music ...

Has anyone come up with a tweak so that the MMT program will work with the 6085 phone?
I was able to install a special profile for iSync so that works like a charm with the phone, but what about the Multimedia Transfer program?
Also, when I transfer an MP3 or Mp4 via bluetooth, the 6085 assumes it's a Tone rather than a song. I end up having to move the file to the music folder, but even then it takes a while before it shows up in the music manager. (I've had to run the update library several times, or just wait a while-- turn phone off and on.)
Is there any way of changing that behavior so that it knows the MP3 should be a song?
Great phone, by the way!

Hi,
There is a new update for Nokia Multimedia Transfer, please check my post from the link /discussions/board/message?board.id=pcsuite&thread.id=39969
This supports the Nokia 5530 device and also the workaround fix for the photos issue which was causing with snow leopard.
Isync also supports the device, download the isync plugin for the device from http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/isync/compatibility-and-download
Visit the how to section for connecting your device and syncing with mac addressbook ical and safari.
Cheers

Mac Multimedia Transfer app not working with N95 8...

I'm using the latest 1.2 version of the Multimedia Transfer app, but it does not recognize the phone via bluetooth nor USB. When trying to setup a device in the Multimedia Transfer app I see my phone listed in the device list, but it's grayed-out and has "(not supported)" in parenthesis. See screenshots via Flickr below. I can get iSync working with my N95 8GB phone just fine, so I know it can connect via bluetooth.

Mac + 5800XM : Multimedia transfer does not keep i...

Every time I connect the phone via USB or BT, not only the latest photos are transferred, but also some previously transferred photos and all default images from the phone gallery like wallpapers and such.
I am selecting the option not to import photos from the phone that have already been imported.
In addition, ALL video files are also transferred every time, includes the default introduction and help videos.
This is annoying, makes the transfer last long, and forces me to do a manual cleanup in iPhoto every time.
I never had this problem with N73. Any ideas?

Yes I'm having the identical problem in the U.S.; Nokia Multimedia Transfer absolutely refuses to make the USB connection to the E71x no matter which of the 4 options you select. The error-dialog specifies to select "PC Suite" but when you do this, it just repeats the same error.
Bluetooth transfers work fine, and I've been using that, but of course its slow (especially if you want to fill an 8GB memory card from iTunes).
Previously I had no problems with USB connectivity to my Nokia N75 with this app. I'm terrified that the bug is in the phone's firmware rather than the Transfer app itself, which would mean that it might never get fixed since my U.S. carrier AT&T virtually never releases Nokia firmware updates for their customized phones.

C7 Media transfer and Mac

Hi,
I've got a C7, Mac OS10.6 and I've tried to use Nokia Multimedia transfer and get a message C7 connected in a USB mode not supported by Nokia Multimedia Transfer or iSync, I can transfer pics using mass storage but want to put OS maps on and cannot see where to place it using mass storage transfer, it says I need to use Nokia Mutimedia transfer, does this work with a Mac?
Thanks

Even though I use it, it's impossible for me to get it connected. I'm using Lion and NMT 1.4.2 and it also detects it when using it in mass storage mode and others. Nonetheless I'm able to use it as a mass storage device.

N8 AND NOKIA MULTIMEDIA TRANSFER

I was unable to connect my N8 with NMT. As per support webpage it is supportedby Nokia Multmedia Transfer for mac.http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-multimedia-transfer/download.
This is what you need to do if you have problem to connect N8 & NMT:
1. Connect the device to Mac
2. Launch NMT from the menu bar.
3. Click tools and settings and then check for updates. It will download the device profile for N8.
4. Then quit NMT and disconnect the device.
5. Connec the device and lauch NMT. It should be connected now.
If its not showing any message that new device profile has been updated, then you can download the N8 device profile manually.
Go to https://www.nmtapp.com/profiles-14/n8.profile
This should offer to pull down the profile manually
Then save this file HDD/Library/Application Support/Nokia Multimedia Transfer/Profiles/
Hopefully this helps

N97 & Nokia Multimedia Transfer

Hi, Just bought the N97 and I run a completly mac based household. I want to sync all my calendar, contacts, music, photos and videos. Nokia Multimedia Transfer works great for my wife's N96 but the N97 is not supported.
1st question.. When will the N97 be supported.
2nd Question. Anyone suggest another product. I don't want to use a web based product as my internet connection is not good enough and the amount of data that I transfer is huge..

Yes, another frustrated new N97 owner with an empty 32Gb card hungry for music.
I've just exhausted all options including:
1) Updating Nokia Multimedia Transfer - which now just crashes as soon as the menu opens from the menu bar,
2) iTuneMyWalkman - which just hangs saying 'collecting data from iTunes'
3) Salling Media Sync which worked once so I bought it and then hasn't worked since. I never received a license number so I hope they are going to give me a refund. This application may work but just dumps all the songs in the same folder without sorting them into folders. A monkey could do that by dragging the tracks directly from iTunes into a folder on the phone's Mass Storage card.
I'm a bit sick of being a Mac pariah! I spoke to somebody at Nokia today (about something completely unrelated) who said that he didn't realise that it was impossible to update a phone's firmware with a Mac.
Do Nokia simply expect that all Mac users are just going to buy iPhones or something?
If Apple had this attitude to Windows users there would be a significant difference in its sales of iPods and iPhones.

Download Nokia Multimedia Transfer 1.4 Beta

Download Nokia Multimedia Transfer 1.4 Beta from http://europe.nokia.com/A4423135
1.4 is intended for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) only. It features a new method for selecting the content to be transferred, various performance improvements, and a new user interface for settings.
Requirements:
a) For NMT 1.4 Mac OS X 10.5.5 or higher
b) iTunes 8 and iPhoto 6 or higher
A compatible Nokia device. Please check the compatibility list.

For me it is really a big surprise new versions will be for Leopard only. I don't think upgrading to Leopard is a must for existing users (I am using Tiger).

Problems downloading Multimedia Suite for Macs..

I've been trying for a week, and even tried with my MAC blue T shirt guy in my local Mac Store ... just wont download from the website.... any idea ???

To clarify, The software I am trying to download is the 1.3 beta, Multimedia Transfer software.

New update for Nokia Multimedia Transfer

Just noticed that NMT has an update. I was on v1.4.2 (8184), it's now v1.4.2 (8192). Not sure what the diffs are though. You still don't get to download this directly from the Nokia website (currently still listing v1.4.1 beta), but the update is available through an already installed NMT.

Hi jcourcoul,
Yes, N86 is supported by the Nokia Multimedia transfer 1.4. Check the compatibility list in www.nokia.com/mac.
For the isync support, N86 is supported by isync. But you need to download the plugin in order to make it work. Download the isync plugin for N86 8MP from the link. http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/isync/compatibility-and-download.
Please follow the how to section to get percise information.

Strange behavior in Nokia Multimedia Transfer

Hi,
I tried to use Nokia Multimedia Transfer as workaround for the missing Podcast in E52. So I subscribed in iTunes to Video and Audio Podcasts. So I marked the Podcass folder in Device Settings.
Now the strange things:
1. The Audio Player on E52 does show under Playlist "Podcasts", it has the right number of items in this little field left hand beside. But when I go inside it is empty, even after using Options "Refresh Library". But it works in general as these number of items beside the folders, for Podcasts as well, were updated.
When I use the filemanager I find under "Audio File" / "iTunes Playlists" a file Podcast.m3u. Touching it shows the audio podcasts expected. I can play them, but didn't find the real files anywhere.
2. The Video transfer is not related to iTunes playlists. Just any video marked will be transferred.(But shown properly in RealPlayer properly and playable from there)
Could anybody help and explain how to transfer properly the audio podcasts so the will be shown and properly playable in E52 audio player?
Is there any option to restrict transfer in NMT to playlists similar to audio files?
Thx in advance
cheers

I also confirm the iPhoto issue, iPhoto goes as far as launching itself, but the phone does not appear as a source.
Also, anyone else getting this dialog
everytime they connect their phone? Kinda annoying.
Easy to fix. Simply config it via adding some settings. Any settings will do and it will go away. Also, get a look at Salling Media Sync. There is a free version and a paid version (I use this one) that performs a bit better than NMT in my opinion. NMT has never really worked correctly. The current version is better though.
