Sony Ericsson W880i plugin

It took a bit of trickery to get iSync to recognise my SE W880i in 10.4 (copying another plugin and just changing a few labels). Now I have upgraded to 10.5 it has discarded my work around and I can't seem to replicate the fix. Help anybody please?

Your best option would be to use a properly tested and supported iSync Plugin which won't stop working or get overwritten when the OS is updated. Plugins provided by Feisar or Novamedia work fine with 10.5.
It's advisable not to resort to 'trickery' for the reasons you've discovered.

Sony Ericsson w880i and iSync

Hi, when arrive an official plugin for SE w880i in iSync?
Tanks

Well, it took Apple nine months to add support for the K800i. So you could be waiting a very long time. There are also no guarantees that Apple will support any specific phones. They are encouraging third-parties to create plugins.
In the meantime you can get a Phone Plugin to sync the W880i now from here:

ISync 3, Leopard 10.5.2 & Sony Ericsson W880i

I have the SE W880i which worked just lovely with the Feisar plug-in but now, while iSync goes all through the process and completes and everything - iCal doesn't update the phone's calendar nor do events created on the phone update to iCal. It looks like Address Book updates, but it's the calendar I'm really naffed off about.
Anyone got a solution - apart from waiting for 10.5.3?

There were no changes to iSync in 10.5.2 apart from some minor updates to two Samsung plugins - nothing that would affect your ability to sync your W880i.
I would suggest going through the iSync Tips on our web-page here:
http://www.feisar.com/isync_tips.html
usually a quick click of "Reset Sync History..." in iSync preferences sorts things out.

Is itunes compatable with sony ericsson w880i?

or is there anything i can download to make it compatable?
would be very greatful for some help.

For protected AAC files, no. And we cannot discuss bypassing the protection here. For iTunes Plus items, they should play (and if not, can be converted to another format legally). For more info on iTunes Plus, see here:

Unable to use Sony ericsson w200i iSyc plugins

Hi Guys
This is ,y mew iMac and I am new to this world. I have bought iSync plugins for Sony Ericsson W200i and I am not able to install iSync plugins. And can you please also tell me that how can I use my w200i as a modem to connect my iMac to internet. Thanks in advance.

I am not able to install iSync plugins.
You'll have to contact whoever you purchased the W200 iSync Plugin from, or follow the instructions they provide with it. Setup varies between different third-party plugin providers.
can you please also tell me that how can I use my w200i as a modem to connect my iMac to internet.
You need to have a working internet connection on the phone (i.e. you can browse the web using the phones browser). Then connect the phone to the Mac in *Phone Mode*, and go to *Settings > Connectivity > USB > USB Internet > USB data accounts* on the phone - and choose your working internet profile. Then choose the *Turn On* option. In the Macs Network system preferences pane some new ports will be detected. If you choose one of the 'Sony Ericsson' ports, these will need to be set-up with the GPRS scripts from Ross Barkmans page. If you choose an 'Ethernet Adapter' port, the phone will be provided with an IP address for connection.
(Note that the above is from memory as I haven't done it this way for some time, but hopefully it will put you on the right track if its not all 100% correct!).

Official Sony Ericsson P990i and W950i Phone Plugins

Sony Ericsson have finally released two very long awaited iSync Plugins:
Sony Ericsson P990i
Sony Ericsson W950i
No sign of M600 or P1i yet.

I had that problem, too. But I figured out a work-around. You just have to sync your data in small "chunks". In Addressbook, create a new group called e.g. "sync". In iSync you will only sync this group. Move a couple of contacts to this group, sync it, move some more, sync, etc. Do that until you synced all of them. Once finished, you can set iSync to sync all your contacts.
Do something similar for iCal data. Sync just one or a few calendars at a time and restrict the dates with the "Options" in iSync.
There are some issues, though. All-day events become events with a duration 0:00h-0:00h, some contacts get duplicate entries of some data (phone numbers, email addresses etc.) etc. The problem is, that this malformed / changed data will be synced back to your mac, when you sync your phone next time. So make sure to back up your addressbook / ical data before re-syncing your phone.
It's pretty buggy at the moment, but I hope, these issues will be addressed either by Apple or SE soon.
Good luck in the mean time…

Sony Ericsson w300i and iSync 2.2

I am the owner or a brand new Sony Ericsson w300i. This is a clamshell model of the popular 'walkman' brand cell phones.
Unfortunately, iSync does not recognize this phone. Does anyone have information on how to add support for this phone, or when an iSync update may support it?
Thanks.

Replying to my own question. Seems you can get the w300i to work with iSync by following the directions here:
http://mobile.feisar.com/z530isync22.html
Once you install that plugin, find the MetaClasses.plist file and modify it so that "W300" replaces all occurrences of "Z530". Then start iSync and everything should work (you may have to pair with the phone first).
I believe this works since the W300i is derived from the Z530.

Sony Ericsson W710i support

Cannot bluetooth transfer with a sony ericsson Z710i

I bought a belkin USB bluetooth adapter for my laptop (running Tiger). It pairs and transfers files back and forth with my own sony phone but although it pairs with my wifes new Z701i it can't transfer a file to it saying it is unable to and there was a transfer error. Could it be the phone? Has anyone else had a problem with this? Any help or comment would be appreciated.
iBook G4 933mhz Mac OS X (10.4.1)

It's not the phone - it's the Belkin...
Belkin USB Bluetooth Adapters are known to be not 100% compatible with more recent Sony Ericsson Phones and more recent versions of Mac OS X.
Apple made significant changes to the Bluetooth system software around Mac OS X 10.4.6 - 7 and since then many third-party USB Bluetooth Adapters don't fully work.
The only external USB Bluetooth Adapter supported by Apple for use on the Mac is the D-Link DBT-120.
BTW, an iSync Phone Plugin for the Sony Ericsson Z710i, to allow full Address Book and iCal syncing is available here.

Sony Ericsson and Nokia

Hello
I am new to Flash Lite, and is know wondering what the
difference is in a Standalone and a Browse flash lite file?
Is it so that a Nokia can install the file, but Sony E have
to browse for it.....?
Tried to browse for the swf file (flash lite 2,0) with a Sony
Ericsson K850i, but the file did not work.
Can anyone help me?

The PC suite won't work as its for Windows PCs not Macs.
You don't need .Mac to use iSync. You just need an iSync Phone Plugin for the Sony Ericsson K800i from here:
http://mobile.feisar.com/phoneplugins23.html
All instructions on what to do are on that page.

Image Capture to import photos from a Sony Ericsson phone

So I have a Sony Ericsson T715, which has triangulation geo-tagging for photos, I can see their location through the phone no problem.
However, when I import them via the Bluetooth File Browser to my Mac and import them into iPhoto '09, their location does not show up
Why is this? How should I import them so that this information stays? (Was a reason why I bought this phone.)
I tried looking at the phone/importing through Image Capture, but it doesn't seem to work... keeps randomly opening iPhoto and showing nothing. In Image Capture it shows the photos, but I can't import them - just says it's importing, but does nothing in the end. How do I do it right?
(I do have the iSync plugin for my phone from SE.)

Anyone?

Sony Ericsson K800i limited compatibility

I've tweaked the .plist files to include my K800i (which I've inserted as K800, not K800i), but when I receive an incoming call on my SE and get the pop up window in Address Book to divert to Voice Mail, Log Call, SMS Reply etc., when I click on one of them they do nothing (except for SMS Reply which duly drops down the field for my message). Am I missing something?
Many thanks, people.

Nobody outside of Apple knows when or if they will update iSync. Currently the are phones over 8 months old still waiting to be officially supported by Apple.
However, you can sync your K800 now using an iSync 2.3 Phone Plugin available from here:
http://mobile.feisar.com/phoneplugins23.html
You must be using Bluetooth, no Sony Ericsson phones can be synced by USB.
If you don't have Bluetooth in your Mac, you should purchase a D-Link DBT-120 USB Bluetooth Adapter - these are the only ones supported by Apple.

I just bought a new fone, the Sony Ericsson Z710i, and was very disappointed to find it is unsupported in isync.
Is there any way I can get my address book to sync with my new fone, or will apple eventually update isync to include this fone.
