Sony Ericsson P910i - Address Book, SMS and Dialing Problems

I'm having problems with my P910i. Everything is paired up in Bluetooth and it is syncing fine but it wont dial or send sms. I thought tiger would solve this issue but it hasn't. There is definately communication between my G4 powerbook and the phone as when i have an incoming call it comes up on the screen of my computer!

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Is there a way to solve it? It is such a shame as it would be such a good feature to be able to use!

Cheers

I have Sony Ericsson P910a (the american version)
To sync at all I had to do some crazy editing of the /system/library/application support/syncservice/501/SymbianConduitDefaults.plist

file in order to just sync under 10.3 per instructions found on macosxhints.com or someplace like that.

10.4 Tiger fixed all that and syncs via bluetooth flawlessly.

However, I am now finding that Dial via Bluetooth in AddressBook doesn't work for me, nor does Browse Device...

Would love to do the latter, would be nice to do the former, especially the caller ID thing.

I have the same problem. I think Sony Ericsson is to blame. They don't update their phones, they seem to redo them completely from scratch. This feature workes both in jaguar and tiger with my older, P800.

BTW, a P910i question. With the lid open, can you move back and fourth betwen the top menu items using the jog dial? It worked in my P800 but the feature is missing all together in P910i, hense the comment above.

D*mn so Sony Ericsson is the problem here, it is just rediculous, if i would have know this on for hand i would have neverbought it, my t610 was working fine, and thats a much cheaper phone, why don't they just take that basis for there newer phones so we don't lose any functionality we had with the older one's. I'm very angry about this , now i know that this is not going to be solved at all.

Is this also the case with Sony Ericsson 750i's?. I've just upgreaded from a Sony Ericcson 700i, which was working fine with sending & receiving SMS from address book, now, very annoyingly, I cannot seem to send or receive with my "better" 750i. It's perfectly paired with my G4 as I've upgraded my contacts using isynch, so that can't be the problem. Any one out there had success sending sms from address book with a 750i??
