thanx

EDIT: when i first found the link and wrote my comments, i hadn't realized that the product i linked to is a newer version of a product i do, in fact, own and use. my final comment at the end of the post originally stated that i've never tried this product. sorry, i didn't mean to be misleading.
the isync plugin is actually far more simple than a device driver. drivers are actually small programs, dedicated to the task of controlling a hardware device (or virtual device, but lets not split THAT hair). in this sense, iSync is more like a driver than the plugin used to enable it with your phone.
what i'm driving at is that isync plugins are fairly simple. download the most recent Apple Developer tools and you'll find an iSync Plugin tool in there. with that, you could give a try at making your own plugin.
short of that, you could wait for Nokia or Apple to make a plugin for you (the official plugins available are provided by one or the other of those two companies, of course). and finally, if you don't want to wait an indeterminate length of time, you could use a plugin written by a 3rd party. sometimes people write plugins and make them free for anyone to use (or even modify). other times they are charged for.
at the top of my post i linked to an isync plugin package at versiontracker.com. the description claims support for the N79. they charge you $10 USD for the product. is it worth it? you decide.
(i am not affiliated with any of the companies responsible for any of the above, including the $10 isync plugins. i've never tried them (EDIT: actually, i own an older version) and i don't own an N79. if i DID own an N79, chances are that i'd buy those $10 plugins)

N95-1 ---> N97-NAM ---> N900 ---> E7-00 + N900 (I use them both)
(N95 was pretty good, N97 had potential but utterly failed to deliver, N900 is absurdly good. Those of you wondering, "should I try N900/Maemo/MeeGo"? The answer is a resounding YES)

  • Is it possible to connect a mac book pro via thunderbolt and a dvi switchbox (multiple computers) to a thunderbolt display?

    Hi,
    I'm planning to buy a thunderbolt display.Since I have not only apple computers with a thunderbolt port I wonder if it's possible to connect my mac book pro via thunderbolt and a DVI switchbox via a "mini displayport to DVI connector" to the thunderbolt display at the same time. Thunderbolt is a bus architecture. Thus there must be an ingoing and an outgoing port on the display. The rearview of the display I've seen so far don't show this:
    If this is not possible then I must question the market chances of this product. Seems as if the product marketing guys exaggerated the launch of the thunderbolt technology.

    How to connect windows laptop (vga) to thunderbolt display?
    AHHH??!!!!!!  Was that your original question??   I assumed you were trying to output FROM your computer (MacBook Pro w/ Thunderbolt) to the new display and then OUT to be the video source to a DVI switcher.
    MB Pro w/TB ---> TB Display ---> mDP-to-DVI adapter ---> DVI switcher
    So it seems as if it's not possible to use the thunderbolt display with the mini display port adapter to DVI you've mentioned.
    I did not understand that you were trying to use other PC's into a switcher and then THAT Video source to connect INTO the TB display.   If THAT is what you're trying to do, then NO....  You can NOT use the new TB Display to be used to display "FROM" a DVI switcher (and also can NOT be used to display from other Non-TB-Apple computers).
    I've also called apple. The statement was that one needs a computer with osx 10.6.x in order to connect the thunderbolt display. That makes it impossible to hook a windows pc or older mac to the new and shiny thunderbolt display.
    I wonder why apple doesn't state this in their technical descriptions...?
    -ais-swiss
    Actually, the state that information all over the Tech Specs on the Apple Store website.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC914LL/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Here are two different statements from that webpage:
    So yes.... other NON-Apple PC's (or non-TB devices) do Not have the Thunderbolt technology (hardware/software) to be able to communicate with the TB display or other TB devices.

  • Is it possible to connect two Macs via USB ?

    Is it possible to connect two Macs via USB just like Firewire back in the day via Target mode or is there something similar? I am asking this because about 2-3 years ago I would normally image Macs via Target Mode. I used to have a regular Macbook running 10.6 along with a customized-ready-to-go .dmg image saved on the Desktop. Whenever I needed to put that image into any Mac I would simply connect the two Macs via Firewire, I would then press "T" at startup which will get me in Target Mode, I would then see the disk appear in the desktop of the Mac I had the image. I would then copy that image to the T mode macbook using super duper. Can this still be done through USB with new models and if so will I also need to press T at startup ?

    No, USB connection does not qualify for this, only firewire and thunderbolt, as I read (but cannot test, for the time being I have only one such mac around).
    This is why the short series of alu MBs (2008) are not qualified for target mode either.
    p.s. What ‘new models’ do you refer to?

  • Is it possible to connect a Mac external Hard Drive to a TV to watch downloaded movies etc/

    Is it possible to connect an external hard drive to a TV in order to view movies etc; that have been downloaded from iTunes.
    I have transferred my data from iTunes onto the hard drive but the default system appears to be called Elmedia and I have never heard of this system before.
    My plan was to buy a USB to HDMI lead and connect to TV that way but as I am struggling to watch media on my computer using Elmedia I dread to think what will happen if I try to connect my hard drive to a TV in Europe.

    There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.
    The Kingston Wi-Drive, which costs $50 for the 16 Gigabyte, and then $30 more for every 16 gigs more. It works by you turning it on and then accessing the files on it from an app that you download on your iDevice. You can access music, movies, and other stuff. No connections or anything, it works like a WiFi connection, you connect to it from the setting on the iPad under wireless networks.
    Then there is the Seagate GoFlex, which some would recommend over the Wi-Drive. But this one costs $199 and had 500 Gigabytes of storage. It works the sameway as the Kingston: no wires, runs over its wireless connection. You can actually fit up to 300 HD movies on it.
    Another option:

  • Not possible to connect with Mac OS X v10.6.2 via VPN to smb://nameserver

    Hi al,
    I have a MacBook Pro. At the company I can connect my MacBook Pro without problems via the LAN to the company servers by using smb://nameserver
    At home I use a VPN connection to connect my MacBook Pro to the LAN at the company.
    The VPN connection between home and company is working well, because I can “run” web-based applications, using htpp://xxxx.xx via Safari.
    But the connection to the smb://nameserver is not working (in the past it worked well!) and I get the following message from Mac OS X : “Connection failed. The server “nameserver” may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, an then try again.”
    If I run, at home, the program “Parallel Desktops” I can make a VPN connection via Windows Vista, and connect to the same servers without problem.
    Is there anybody who can help me?

    Hi
    If you're trying to connect using the server's name you have to know which host server to use to resolve the name. If you don't know simply use its IP address:
    eg: instead of: smb://servername
    use: smb://IPaddress (this would be the private non-routable IP address)
    This should work? Depending which VPN Method you're using to Tunnel to the host network and how the host network is configed it may not do name resolution that well.
    If it used to work in the past it may have been because a static entry for the host network's DNS Server was placed in your Network Preferences Pane? Or if your connection was via PPTP or L2TP appropriate LAN settings were assigned once the connection was made to the host site? In other words a set of IP addresses matching the host site's LAN IP topology.
    Perhaps the current method you're using now of building the VPN Tunnel is via IPSec IKE/ISKAMP? In which case you may have to 'tell' your remote network which DNS Server to use at the host site for name resolution.
    A possible reason why it 'works' for the Windows side is because name resolution - most of the time - gets by without using fully qualifiable domain names. For example pinging an IP address in DOS to find a name works (most of the time) if you simply supply just the server name. This is not necessarily the case on the mac.

  • When I connect my Mac Mini 2011 with Lion to a TV via HDMI and an earphone cable is plugged in, it´s not possible to choose sound out via hdmi, as opposed to connection via minidisplay port. Anybody knows how to fix this?

    When I connect my Mac Mini 2011 with Lion to a TV via HDMI and an earphone cable is plugged in, it´s not possible to choose sound out via hdmi, as opposed to connection via the minidisplay port. Anybody knows how to fix this?

    Was just on the phone with Apple about this.
    The solution was as follows for me anyway...
    Go to your Finder
    Choose the Go Menu
    Choose Computer
    Choose your Macintosh Hard Drive
    Choose your "Library" Folder
    Choose the "Preferences" Folder
    There should be a folder called "Audio"
    Move that whole folder to the trash
    Empty the Trash
    Restart from the Apple Menu
    When you are back up and running;
         Choose System Preferences from the Apple Menu
         Choose Sound
          In the output tab you should now be able to make the HDMI "Sticky"
          Enjoy your sound over HDMI and no more dirty knees or broken backs unplugging the desktop speakers!

    Did you even read the article you linked to?
    Here's a quote from it
    "The video itself looked fine when it played properly, but it stopped and started constantly, and often displayed with huge, ugly artifacts. And at times, the app would freeze completely and require a force quit.
    Just to make sure it wasn’t a problem with one Blu-ray disc, I tried some others. With Hot Tub Time Machine the results were much, much worse. It got a few seconds into the United Artists logo before the movie and completely froze playback. On several attempts. With David Cronenberg’s The Fly, playback was generally better—but the software played the ‘making of’ movie instead of the actual film. I thought there might have been a preference to help with the movie selection, but—wait for it—the Preferences item didn’t do anything when I selected it."
    Not very promising is it

While the three Mac users are able to print wirelessly to the printer using an Airport Express, I haven't been able to figure out how to connect the PC to the printer. The printer is simply not seen by the PC on the same network. Is it possible to connect both a PC and a Mac to the same printer using w-fi?

    Download and run the installer from there (just like installing any other program on Windows). Windows systems require this to be installed and bizarrely it doesn't auto-install along with AirPort Utility.

    I tightened all HD screws and it didn't help. With the machine running and side of the case off, I physically stopped both the video card fan and the front case fan with my finger for a couple seconds and the noise continued. I also took all hard drives out one by one and rebooted each time. Again, the noise continued until I took out the Mac HD in Bay 1, rebooted, and I had a very quiet, silent machine. The issue is the hard drive in bay 1 that shipped with the computer, it's without a doubt causing the hum/woosh sound. I still need to know if I can safely swap the Mac HD from bay 1 to bay 4 without any issues to the operating system. I would like to try that to see if it dampens the noise but I also want to make sure this swap won't screw up my machine at all.

  • Is it possible to connect my home computer to files stored on my running osx server mac via VPN

    Is it possible to connect my home computer to files stored on my running osx server mac via VPN. I have VPN set up and can access the Calendar and Contacts via a web browser, however I want to be able to access data files store on the hard drive and shared external drives connected to it. The MacPro runs OSX Server Lion. Any Ideas if this is even possible or how to do it!

    Yeah, that's what I kinda figured. Maybe there is another solution - here is my situation:
    I have internet and cable service through Telus. Telus' system consists of a modem/set-top-box that provides internet (ethernet and wifi) and TV signal (corded) for one TV and another set top box that provides internet (ethernet only) and TV signal (corded) for my other TV in the basement.
    I have an Airport Extreme connected to the modem upstairs which I am using as my home network wifi. I also have an external hard drive (USB) connected to it on which my iTunes library is shared with all Apple machines in my home network.
    My upstairs ATV, connected to my APE, works fine and streams internet (Netflix), iTunes Store and my shared iTunes drive just fine - the APE is 3 feet away with a great signal.
    My downstairs ATV, also connected to my APE via wifi, does not stream so well, particularly the media from the shared drive. I suspect that this is the case because of signal degredation.
    Any suggestions on how to reconstruct my home network to enable my downstairs ATV to work properly?
