What exactly can iSync to for me between mac and phone?

I want to test out my new KRZR K1m with iSync, but I do not want it to wipe out all of my contacts. My service provider is verizon, and they uploaded all my contacts from my old phone to my new KRZR K1m. Since I never sync'd the old cellphone w/ a computer, I do not want to accidentally delete everything on my phone by replacing it w/ my addressbook just yet.
but really, I just want to know what can by transferred via bluetooth between my mac and the KRZR?
can I transfer songs? pictures/video?
what kinds of things can iSync do for me and what is the best way to go about it without accidentally erasing the KRZR's phone contacts?
thank you

You don't have to worry about erasing all of your contacts. If you haven't synced the phone before, open iSync and click the "Sync" button in the main window. (It's the iSync logo to the right.)
Once you click sync, iSync looks for bluetooth devices and/or USB devices (phones, PDAs, etc.) Once it has found your device, it will display it to the left of the iSync window. Click on it and you'll see a bunch of options including, "For First Sync". There is a dropdown menu next to this with two options:
1. Merge data on computer and device
or....
2. Erase data on device then sync.
Obviously in your case you would choose numero uno...
iSync will then add all of your phone numbers on the phone to your Mac Address Book and will sync your existing Address Book contacts to the phone.

  • ITunes: How can I sync my podcasts between Macs and iDevices?

    Hi,
    Using iTunes for a decade now, I still having the same problem that I don't know how to solve:
    How can I sync my podcasts subscriptions and play states between Macs and iDevices?
    I am having two MPBs and one iMac, as well as an iPhone and iPad (yes, making someone rich in California), all of them are linked to the same iTunes/Apple account, they are not in the same Wifi.
    What I would like to have that all these iTunes (plural) have the same Podcasts with the same played/unplayed states...
    Is there any way to do that now, possible with iCloud? I am completely confused now that they have introduced podcast.app for iDevices...
    Thank you for any idea for good solution!

    From what I can tell, the Podcast app should do for your iOS devices what you're describing--as long as they all use the same Apple ID. Here's an article with some helpful information about the app:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5295
    To keep your subscriptions in sync across all devices, the article says this:
    "To subscribe to a podcast on your device, tap the Subscribe button from the podcast provider's page from the Podcast catalog. Enable subscription syncing to keep your subscription up-to-date across your iOS devices. On your iOS device tap Settings > Podcasts > Sync Subscriptions > ON.
    To sync playback position, the article says this:
    "Playback Sync automatically allows you to sync your playback position to all of your iOS devices with the Podcasts app installed, using your Apple ID. In order for Playback Sync to sync your playback position, you must be signed in to the iTunes Store using the same Apple ID on your iOS devices."
    As for keeping playback position on your iOS devices in sync with iTunes on your Macs, you'll need iTunes 11 on all your Macs. So if you're still using iTunes 10 or earlier, you'll need to run a software update to get the latest version. Incidentally, I came across this discussion, which offers some helpful setup/troubleshooting tips about using this new podcast playback syncing feature:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4555757
    Hope this is helpful!

  • 1 hd with 2 file formats for use between mac and windows?

    Think this is the right forum...
    I want to instal a program onto an external hard drive for use on both mac and windows. The program supports both mac and windows.
    My plan is to get an external hd and partition it in half. One half i will format mac os extended and the other i will format ntfs. I'll instal the mac version on the mac partition and the windows version on the ntfs partition.
    This should work i'm thinking, yes? I.e. when i plug it into windows it'll run the windows installation no problem and when i plug it into the mac it'll run the mac installation no problem?
    Thanks.

    An easier solution might be to just connect the drive to a Windows PC and format it as FAT32. Both Windows (98 and higher) as well as Mac allow full read/write access to FAT32 formatted drives. No need to download any drivers, etc. It just works.
    Yes, this solution is not perfect, but none are. The free NTFS drivers for Mac are not most efficient drivers for speed/performance, the HFS+ drivers for Windows are not cheap, and have their own performance issues, and FAT32 has the limit of file sizes over 2GB (or is it 4GB now?) not supported. No one solution is perfect, but for the many one is better than the others, but it all depends upon their circumstances which is "better".

  • IPhone iCal iCloud issues!  Not pushing info between Mac and phone.

    My ical on my iPhone will not sync with ical on my desktop.  No data is pushed between devises even though I have set it up to automatically update.  All the calendars are listed as on the cloud, yet still no movement back and forth.  Please help!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • How can I share files in airdrop between mac and phone without having setting turned to "everyone"?

    I'm trying to utlitise airdrop between my MBP and iPhone 5s. I have the same icloud account for both, but when I have airdrop set to "contacts only" on either device the other is not visible. I have to set either device that I am trying to send to as visible to Everyone for it to show up on the other.
    I have myself in my contact book as well so I should technically come up as a contact I would think? I'd rather not have to have visibility set to "everyone" if I can help it.
    Any advice?
    Thanks

  • Can I share user account between mac and PC

    Hi, I would like some help. I have a mac mini and will add osx server on to it soon. Now I also have two Windows PC's and would like to connect everything. I would like to use the mac as my main working device (and as a server) I would then like to be able to logon to my mac account on the PC's. So share user account from the mac onto the PC's?
    Is this possible? If so is there a very details tutorial somewhere I can't seem to find one.
    P.S NOT just file sharing. I don't want the user account or fils to be on the PC's.
    Regards
    Aled

    Windows prefers to authenticate with Microsoft Active Directory.   This configuration is possible, but probably not in the price or complexity range that you might want.   Not unless you're inclined to run both OS X Server and Open Directory and Windows Server with Active Directory (or the Active Directory compatibility available with Samnba installed on a Linux server), which won't be a small investment or a small effort.
    If you want to research this, look for information on the so-called "magic triangle" or "golden triangle" configuration.   I'm not aware of a short tutorial for this, as neither AD nor OD tend to be particularly small projects to configure and deploy.
    Probably closer to your budget, a password manager or the keychain in OS X can store the access credentials.

  • Android Samsung Epic how to transfer file between Mac and phone

    I have an
    Samsung Epic touch 4g, and my daughter Samsung Galaxy S2 but even after downloading Android's File transfer app my Imac is not recognizing it?  I know Samsung and Mac are rivals for for the Love of God what can we do?

    There is no official mac-to-Android support. See here
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/33136/missing-sync-for-android
    and here
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/39231/fonesync-for-android---htc
    Note that Novamedia, a good company from Germany, does not maintain its support for Android devices, which required iSync, the Apple utility included with the system until Snow Leopard. But it works with Lion and Mountain Lion via its plugins.
    If you discover other solutions while browsing the net, please tell us, am also considering to purchase and Android phone, just for the sake of testing something new, even if iPhone rules.

  • 2008 Mac Mini - what webcam can I buy for this computer?????

    OMG help me. I have a 2008 Mac Mini - I need to skype and have tried a few webcams that either just don't work or there is no sound - I understand it nees to be the correct kind for mac... so what webcam can I use on this computer I've been researching for days and can't seem to find any definitive answers anywhere online.... what webcam can I buy for a mini mac 2008??

    Try this:
    http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Widescreen-Calling-Recording-960-000694/dp/B004FH O5Y6
    Works for me and Skype, anyway. 
    The microphone will have to be built-in to the camera and USB-connected - like the one above (and NOT a pink 3.5mm plug!)
    You also sure you're selecting the correct audio input on the webcams you've already tried?

  • HT2493 What format can I put for the icon?

    I want to change the boring icon of the folder icon.  But I tried to put the Jpeg format icon and I failed!  What format can I put for the icon?

    Are you trying to change one of the system level folder icons (so that every folder of that type uses your new icon) or specific folder icons for folders you have created?
    The first requires special techniques that modify system level resources & is not recommended unless you know exactly what you are doing.
    The second should work just like in the article.

    hi! i have a iphone 5s in t mobile but now i live in mexico city, what can i do for unlock this iphone and have a signal in telcel, please helpme guys! i lost mi sim

    What do you mean? Your only way to unlock that phone is to have had 40 days continuous service with T-Mobile and then process the unlock through them. If you had an account with T-Mobile you should be able to login and process your unlock. If you did not you can click on the chat program but they are going to tell you the same thing.
