Samsung Kies Software for Galaxy tab or phone

My wife wants the Galaxy S II phone, which is available here at far less the iPhone 4. So I decided to test the software first before authorizing the purchase. The Samsung site states the software is 10.5+ but the installer itself says it won't install on Lion. So I just used Pacifist and that worked. But without the device, I won't be sure it really does work or not, even though it appears too. Does anyone else have this going on a Galaxy tab or phone? Thx!

Btw, I really like the apporach...seems so much simplier then my iTunes setup for my phones/tab. But again, I am not even sure if this works...

I have lion and kies. I did it by downloading an older version of the mac software then updating it and that worked. The software generally is a bit buggy so patience is needed however unlike the iphone you can use the phone as an external hardrive and this takes away the need to have a program to manage the phone as you can just drag and drop into the phone folders. The only thing I have found is that so far you can not update the firmware when you can do that on the windows program.
I moved from 3gs to galaxy2 and so far I am far more impressed. One feature I like is you can sync your contacts/settings and apps with good and should you have to do a factory reset the phone will automatically restore the phone to the previous state with you even having to plug phone in computer. Gets you up and running in seconds.

        Thanks for asking, jrh4054. We always recommend updating your software to the most recent version. At this time, NK1 is the way to go.

  • What is the best synchronizing software for an Android mobile phone?

    I have a Samsung GS4 and am having trouble synchronizing with a program called SyncMate that I DL'd. It works but sometimes too well--it downloads everything with no recognition of the duplications it's making. So I end up with 20 entries in my contact list for the same person, ultimately clogging my phone with excess data. Is there a better synchronization software or am I stuck with having to buy an iPhone to make things work?

    Apple certainly does not produce any software for syncing Android devices. You may want to check with Google or Samsung.

  • Which is the suitable flash player version for galaxy tab 3

    Hi , i'm using galaxy tab 3 vertion 4.1.2 and stil unable to watch any movie through putlocker site.i alredy had installed flash manually fr the device but still it says,"important codec n plug-in missing".pls help..

    Galaxy Tabs use Android.
    There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player. Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it drains your battery, also shortening the life of it. Android (Google) recommends using either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" as your browser if you need to view Flash content with a mobile device running Android. They're both free in the GooglePlay store. These browsers use "server side" rendering to reduce the load on your device.

    Welcome to the forums
    In order to install the software, you need Desktop Manager. You also need to download and install the latest OS for your phone (from your provider).
    Download Blackberry Desktop Manager over here: https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code​=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22

  • Flash player for galaxy tab 2

    Hi there,
    I'm having problems with flash on my galaxy tab 2. Whenever something prompts me to get flash, it takes me to the app in the android store, but says the app isn 't available in my country (Australia). Is there a way to download it or am i doomed to a flash-less life?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Adobe does not support the Flash Player on the Galaxy Tab 2. You can find a list of Adobe certified devices here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/flashruntimes/certified-devices.html

  • My Mac want reconazges my Galaxy s 2 phone

    My Mac Book Pro will not reconezges my Galaxy S2 new phone.  Can any one help me with this problem

    I've run into same thing with my Galaxy S.  I don't think Google or Samsung wrote drivers for these Android devices, assuming Mac users only use iPhones or something.
    Now, there is a qualifier with my phone: Kies software doesn't recognize original Galaxy phones.  It should recognize your phone, of you install the software.  There is Kies software for Mac now available on Sammy's website.

  • Android Lollipop Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (LTE)

    Is there any news on when the Telstra Tab S LTE will get Lollipop? 

    I received the update notification yesterday, but I had too many files on the device so I  had to cancel LOL. It's downloading now and it'll be fun to see what changes lay ahead in my Galaxy Tab.
    YES I'm in Australia. To force the update go to Settings, About Device and in right screen tap Update Now.  
    It will warn you of the large data transfer and recommends you be connected to Wifi before downloading. Good luckRFx wrote:
    The Lollipop update for Galaxy Tab S 10.5 Wi-Fi only version has not even been released for Australia as yet.  The Android 5.0.2 version for the Wi-Fi device has already been released in a number of other countries and should not require telcos involvement in the update release process. There should no excuses in this case. Samsung Australia it would seem just cannot be bothered releasing timely device updates to its customers.  As for the release of the LTE version, I hope you are a very patient person!

  • How do I stop Firefox for Android from popping up the on-screen keyboard when loading a page with a search box on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2?

    When I go to certain sites on the web which have search boxes, Firefox will pop up the onscreen keyboard as the page load completes, without me doing anything to focus the search box. It's annoying to have to tell the keyboard to go away each time before I can navigate in the page.
    I specified the device I am using (Galaxy Tab 2 7 inch) because it uses a nonstandard keyboard applet, called simply the Samsung Keyboard, which could be doing something different than the regular Android one. I don't have the option of switching to the stock Android keyboard.

    That won't help iamjayakumars. That pref blocks popup windows on load. The keyboard is not a popup window.
    This behavior happens because the website sets focus to a text box on the page. Firefox is following the standard behavior for desktop browsers.

  • Where i can get Flash player for Android device such as Samsung galaxy tab 2.0?

    Well, folks, my question is : where I can download Flash player for Android OS ? I have a Samsung galaxy tab 2.0 7'' and I tried to download that player from anywhere but that was a waste of time. The "downloaders" in the android market Don't Work. So please, help me find out where I can get this player. I know that Adobe doesn't support Android but I'm sure there Is a way. 

    Hi jerry3D,
    Flash Player for Android is no longer available. For more information, see here:

  • Request for Admin-BBY Sticky Post for new Trade In & Trade Up Samsung Galaxy Tab S $50 Offer Details

    Considering some of the problems that people have had in trading in their qualifying working tablets not in Best Buy's trade-in system for a minimum $50 Best Buy Gift Card during the ending Surface 3 promotion... would it be possible for Admin BBY to post a new sticky message for the new promo starting today for trading in any non Nook/ereader tablet without screen/water damage that turns on for a $50 gift card and coupon for $50 off the Samsung Galaxy Tab S? It would be valuable to know if any of the terms of the trade-in have changed, and to head off questions about the inability to use more than one coupon per tablet purchase before you are inundated with complaints.. 
    Thanks in advance! Nothing gets me into a brick and mortar store more assuredly than the promise of a discount off a coveted new piece of technology!

    Hello StellaDallas-
    It’s definitely concerning when customers are experiencing disappointments with one of our promotions and I can certainly understand your desire to see something posted on our community to help head off any future issues.
    The stores are provided with all the information that they need to process these promotions correctly and hopefully, we have also learned from any past mistakes as well when putting them together.  Right now, you can find all the details of the Samsung Tab 3 trade-in promotion here.  From what I can see, it seems to cover all the details of the promotion very well, including stating that only one coupon can be used per transaction.
    Otherwise, as far as I can tell, the promotion is identical to the Surface 3 promotion, with the caveat that the trade-in must be used towards the purchase of a Samsung Galaxy Tab S.
    Thanks for connecting with us!
