P900 and iSync failure

I am running iMac G4 with OSX.2.8 and iSync 1.5. Have a P900 with Bluetooth and after a lot of teething problems got it to synch correctly last year, but I have no idea how! Suddenly it has failed to synchronise again for no obvious reason, except on about 1 out of 20 tries when it seems to work unexpectedly. I have tried all the suggestions on this forum, to no avail. I have tried calling it a mobile phone or another device but it seems to make no diferrence.The device address is 00-0e-07-cb-e0-f1; does anyone know if this sounds correct? I am none too technically minded so if anyone has any suggestions, I would apprecite them in simple terms!
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.2.x) 10.2.8

Silly me! I temporarily disabled firewall and it works fine!
Hope this lesson may help others

Just received this re motorola and isync - not good news

-- Technical status of connections between newer Motorola phones and
iSync --
After evaluating lots of information from users and many tests, the
situation with the new generation of Motorola cellular phones (RAZR,
SLVR, PEBL, others) regarding iSync connection looks to us as follows:
There exist at least three generations of firmware in these phones:
1. Firmware generation (beginning in RAZR V3c) works at least somehow
with iSync. Address book can be synchronized, sometimes problems with
calendar data occur.
2. Firmware generation (e.g. RAZR V3i, V3x, SLVR, PEBL)
With this phones you have no functioning Bluetooth communication to a
Macintosh at all. You can "pair" the Mac and the phone (i.e. exchange
the confirmation codes) but after that registering of services between
them fails. After setting up the Motorola phone with the Bluetooth
Assistant you will get the message "no services available". Because of
that you can neither use iSync to exchange data with these phones via
Bluetooth nor any other Bluetooth service (e.g. Send File, or serial
port communication). This general Bluetooth communication between a
Windows PC and the Motorola phones is working. These phones also don't
react on approaches of iSync to communicate via USB.
3. Firmware generation (e.g. RAZR V3x, V3i, SLVR, PEBL, V557)
In this generation the general Bluetooth communication is working again,
but the data format for strings has been changed by Motorola. In the old
days a name like "Adam" was transfered as an ASCII string. Now they are
hexadecimal encoded, in this example the phone now sends the Hex-Codes
for it: "4164616d". The Interpretation of this data is hard coded inside
the iSync application and by our knowledge can't be modified by a
plugin. Appearently iSync is not able to switch to this other encoding
format automatically.
Because of this current technical situation we don't see any possibility
to implement a plugin solution for these phone models that would satisfy
the Motorola customers.

Issuing the 6xxx series of boxes to a new customer is a poor practise. Infact, no one should be receiving the 6xxx boxes at all. To issue one for new service knowing there is likely to be an unsatisfactory experience, and then tell the customer they need to pay an additional $40 for a new box seems sleazy. Time to retire the 6xxx boxes for good.

Using Windows 7 Professional, as soon at I try to start a system restore, I receive error message "Incorrect function. (0x80070001)" and "Catastrophic failure (0x80000FFFF)." How can I avoid this and perform my system restore?

Windows Explorer has stopped responding for the most part and I found http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2694911 list of solutions. After working through all of the first options on the list, I tried a system restore three different points
but got the same two errors: "Incorrect function. (0x80070001)" and "Catastrophic failure (0x80000FFFF)."

Hi TAS,
Regarding the error message, I recommend you try to this :
"0x8000ffff" error message when you try to restore a Windows 7-based computer by using System Restore

Switching to AT&T Cingular - best phone for use with Mac and iSync

Dear Friends,
I am finally about to be free from Sprint's poor customer service. I will be switching to AT&T / Cingular. (Not quite ready to buy an iPhone, but don't want to be locked into a 2 year contract with another provider).
I want to use Apple's iSync. I have reviewed the list of compatible devices and scanned the forums for related topics.
I'm still left wondering:
What is the best phone to get with AT&T for use with iSync?
I would like to sync contacts both ways. If possible, syncing cal events and to-dos would be nice, but not as important as contacts.
I prefer small flip phones. I don't plan to buy the Media pack service that includes text, web, etc. Instead, I will use the phone for calls and occassional text messages.
Sound quality and the ease of use are the most important features for me. I prefer raised keys to the flat keypads, but could give on this if need be.
Finally, using the phone as a modem with my laptop would be nice, but is not essential.
Thanks so much for any help you can offer.
David

I am facing the exact same question regarding, e.g., the Nokia 6126. There are several references:
1. Go to the Nova Media web site and look at their new product, Fone Link. Or their iSynch Plugins
2. One of the forum threads references, http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060915154526806
3. Another link I found http://soapbox.co.nz/past/2007/4/9/nokia-6126-and-isync-revisited/
But what I don't yet understand is whether or not any of these suggestions/solutions are affected by the carrier. My understanding is that the 6126 is the North America Version of the 6131. But I talked to ATT/Cingular support yesterday and they make some modifications to the phone software. They don't know if the ATT 6126 will synch with a Mac. Of course they know the answer if synching with a PC (!!)

I had to replace my iMac due to hard drive and Logicboard failure, so I want to reinstall Windows 7 on a Boot Camp partition. Will there be a problem reactivating Windows 7 Home Premium?

Hi,
should be no problem.
Best case is you can activate online via Internet.
Worst case is you have to call Microsoft and explain that it is the same computer after a mainboard failure.

Sony Ericsson W810i and iSync 2.4: "can not connect to this device"

I am using Mac OS 10.4.11 and iSync 2.4, which I believe are the most up to date versions. My Sony Ericsson W810i is shown as being compatible with iSync as shown on the iSync support page, but while I try to add the phone to it I get the message:
"W810i
iSync can not connect to this device".
Does anybody have any ideas how to sort this problem? I've tried restarting both my computer and phone before trying again.

I finally figured out how to fix this problem. The mobile phone had to be initially added by the computer under Bluetooth to pair them before adding the device to iSync. Adding the computer as a device to the phone to pair them, as I had been doing, didn't allow it to work with iSync.

E65 and Isync

Until recently I've been able to sync my calendars between my mac (running leopard and Isync 3) and use my phone as a travelling diary and appointment reminder but for some reason since last week although the mac and the phone sync OK and I get messages on the phone and on the mac which detail the information being transferred the calendar dates sent from my mac don't show up in the calendar entries on the E65. Any idea why?

There's possibly some corrupt data in one or more of your Contacts or Calendars.
Try syncing only Contacts and then only Calendars and see if it will sync one but not the other. That will tell you where the corruption is.
Then have a look here for the procedure for identifying and fixing the corrupt items.

Node failed to join the cluster because it ould not send and receive failure detection network messages

One of my customers has a Windows Server 2008 R2 cluster for an Exchange 2010 Mailbox Database Availability Group. Lately, they've been having problems with one of their nodes (the one node that is on a different subnet in a different datacenter) where
their Exchange databases aren't replicating. While looking into this issue it seems that the problem is the Network Manager isn't started because the cluster service is failing. Since the issue seems to be with the cluster service, and not Exchange,
I'm asking here.
When the cluster service starts, it appears to start working, but within a few minutes the following is logged in the system event log.
FailoverClustering
1572
Critical
Cluster Virtual Adapter
Node 'nodename' failed to join the cluster because it could not send and receive failure detection network messages with other cluster nodes. ...
It seems that the problem is with the 169.254 address on the cluster virtual adapter. An entry in the cluster.log file says: Aborting connection because NetFT route to node nodename on virtual IP 169.254.1.44:~3343~ has failed to come up.
In my experience, you never have to mess with the cluster virtual adapter. I'm not sure what happened here, but I doubt it has been modified. I need the cluster to communicate with its other nodes on our routed 10. network. I've never experienced
this before and found little in my searches on the subject. Any idea how I can fix this?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi,
I suspected an issue with communication on UDP port 3343. Please confirm the set rules for port 3343 on all the nodes in firewall and enabled all connections for all the profiles
in firewall on all the nodes are opened, or confirm the connectivity of all the node.
Use ipconfig /flushdns to update all the node DNS register, then confirm the DNS in your DNS server entry is correct.

Nokia Mural (6750) and isync

I've been looking and can't find: Is it possible to sync Ical with my Nokia 6750? I know I"ll have to get a compatible usb cable, but before I buy that, can it be done? Thanks.
Judy

After pairing your Nokia via BlueTooth... start iSync... go to Devices > Add Device while iSync is the active (front most app). You probably already know this...
One anomaly that I have noticed (even with my last Motorola cell phone and iSync) is that sometimes phone numbers, events, etc. will not be deleted when synced again (maybe just me).
If this happens... or if iSync says that your memory is full and that it can not add all of your events... then (after deselecting some of your calendar boxes in iCal, or creating a smaller group phone list in Address Book) I have found that (while iSync is front most app) if you go to the menu bar and select Devices > Reset All Devices... iSync will _erase/reformat_ your Nokia and then only add the newly selected items. And you can continue to trial/error this until you reduce the number of phone numbers and calendar events to fit on the memory card in your Nokia.
Hope this helps.

Nokia 6620 and iSync

For the past year, I have been syncing my iMac with my Nokia 6620. Tonight, I get an error message. The iSync log gives the following:
8:22:02 PM Connecting to Nokia 6620
8:22:02 PM Device “Nokia 6620” connected
8:22:02 PM Receiving changes from “Nokia 6620”.
8:22:03 PM “Nokia 6620” Receiving changes complete
8:22:03 PM “Nokia 6620” Processing changes…
8:22:18 PM “Nokia 6620” Engine processing complete
8:22:18 PM Applying changes to “Nokia 6620”
8:22:20 PM Error [Nokia 6620] An unexpected error occurred.
8:22:20 PM Error Device “Nokia 6620” synchronization failed.
It appears there is something wrong with the Nokia 6620. I have reset the phone several times but, I still get the same error message.
Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
What you perceive as a problem is actually a feature - a consequence of shifting synchronization of all servers, applications and devices to the SyncService framework. Now, iTunes is configured to interact with the truth database maintained by SyncServices to synchronize iPods, .Mac Sync handles a similar interaction to synchronize with .Mac, and iSync is relegated to handling mobile handsets and Palm handheld organizers and smartphones.
In the same manner, applications like iCal and the Address Book interact with the SyncServices framework, as do many third-party applications like MySync, the Missing Sync for Palm OS, DayLite, and others.
If your mobile handset is not connected via Bluetooth or USB, or iSync is not running when you initiate a synchronization event using the HotSync icon, or the button on your cable or cradle, then your device will not be synchronized until it is 'attached' and iSync is launched. This update occurs because the SyncServices engine is aware that the device exists and was not available during the prior event. As soon as becomes available, the update takes place.
If you want your mobile handset to be simultaneously synchronized when you synchronize your Palm device, then you must do two things:
• 'attach' it via Bluetooth or USB, and
• launch iSync prior to initiating the HotSync

Ping drop and general Failure on wireless

Hi all,
I am facing the ping drop and general failure error when I am connected to AP and try to do ping any IP with the ping size is 5500 bytes.Print screen shot is attached for your reference.
Product/Model Number : AIR-AP1242AG-A-K9
Regards
Ali Raza

yes that is what I mean. And you cannot figure out if this is happening or not. Don't rely on the wireless connection icon on windows.
It can be possible that your wireless adapters notices that the RF is busy and there were a few packet drops so it reconnects quickly. It's usually transparent to applications but if you are running a ping at that time ...
In any case, conclusion is : check your RF environment. How many APs around ? a lot of traffic ?

MTTR/MTBR Breakdown and Machine Failure Time

We create PM Notification with the IW24 where we enter the Breakdown time.
The problem is that we need to monitor the MTTR/MTBR (MCJB, MCJC & MCI7) but only when there is a breakdown because of a malfuction of the machine (machine failure) and not for a non-machine-cause breakdown. We need to register both times (Breakdown, and Machine Failure).
I think that an option is using these 3 scenarios:
    1. If we select the "Breakdown box" it will be a machine failure.
    2. If we not select the "Breakdown box", but there is a quantity on the "Breakdown duration" .. It will represent that there   were a Breakdown.
    3. If we not select the "Breakdown box", but there is NOT a quantity on the "Breakdown duration" .. It will represent that there were NOT a Breakdown.
The problem is that if we use the 3rd scenario, when we save the Notification (or the PM Order) the time disappears.
¿There is an option to save the time even do the "Breakdown box" is not selected?
¿Where can I configurate the PM Notification? ¿Or where can I configurate the MTTR/MTBR (MCJB, MCJC or MCI7)?

Hello
Manzarek     ,
I will suggest you following;
1.Just create different different notification types for all your scenarios.
2.Just select the breakdown vies in the notification type where the actual machine breakdown occurs due to machine failure.
The path for that is
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service->Maintenance and Service Processing->Notification Creation->Notification Types->Define Notification Types
3. You can not directly enter the breakdown time without completion of the same.

Naveen

Activate or skip "Record Results" and "Step Failure Cause Sequence Failure" for all steps of a step type

Hello all,
I am using teststand 3.1
Is it possible to skip or activate ´"Record Results" and "Step Failure Cause Sequence Failure" for all steps of a step type.
It is very much work to do this for all steps, because I have hundred of steps
regards
samuel

hi,
here is an example that will change the TS.NoResult. You just have to change this area of the sequence to suit your needs
I haven't added any fancy stuff, such as adding a filedialog to get the seq file to change, you will find the various variables in the Locals.
Hope it helps
There is a version for 3.1 and 3.5.

Need to reinstall iCal and iSync

Hi
I managed to really mess up my computer but...fortunately I do have documents, etc., saved. I don't particularly want to do a complete reinstall since I seem to have most of my "stuff" back on track. BUT I simply cannot get iCal and iSync to open! I would like to install these two items fresh. Is there any way I can do that without having to reinstall the whole system again?
Thanks!
Skitterbug70

Thanks for the info about iCal! Before I try and install it, should I remove the iCal program that isn't working properly? And how do I get all the pieces of it off my computer? I didn't do a clean install of my O/S but I am beginning to think that might have been easiest.I thought before I attempted that, I'd give partial restoration a try. I also have to be very sure I've resaved what I consider precious.
I made a couple of backups with the Backup software that came with .MAC but it doesn't want to restore right. If I wipe my hard drive and start over, I don't have a way of accessing that Backup program anyway. This whole mess is more complicated than I thought it would be. <sigh>
Anyway, I think I'll search the hard drive for iCal and delete all that I find and then reinstall it from my disks to see if that works.
Thanks for your help and kind welcome!
And if anyone knows where I can find iSync, I'd be grateful for the link! Oh and my mouse doesn't want to right click either! Where would I find drivers for it? It's an attached Mighty Mouse.
Okay, I'll quit asking! I'll drive everyone off with my questions! <grin>
Thanks again!
Skitterbug70
PS: I figured the mouse problem out. I forgot about using the Preference panel to change the right button to Secondary. So it works now! <grin>
