Sony Ericsson m600i - iSync

Well dude this is the problem. Neither SE nor Apple are interested. Apple has the iPhone coming and I am sure it will be an extension from the Mac to a portable media-telecommunication device. If it is remotely successful as the iPod, SE, Nokia and a few others are DOA.

You should have gotten the E-61. 🙂

i have the e60 - that serves me quite well. if apple would bring back the newton i would readily spent a fortune to get it. But - i don't believe in devices which are supposed to do everything - being a phone, play 4000 songs, play video, a reasonable size&quality display, touchscreen, show pdfs, make life easier, control your hifi, etc... and being small, run 300 hours on battery and fits in your pocket... thats never supposed to happen - and how boring it would be - imagine everybody running around with a macbook in stylish "wraps", iPhone and/or iPod and using a macMini besides their tv.

So my point is: Apple has open up iSync to allow others to extend it - maybe they just wait until their iPhone has hit the market. But no one is served with 20 different address sync applications. If apples ignorance (just look at the iSync compatibility list - a joke!) is at least good enough to force mobile vendors to keep their stuff marginally compatible to iSync - then OK. But i doubt it.

but i will play around with it and learn - i just dont need to have iSync running with the M600i - but i would love it!

and - i do not love the apple hardware (never did) but the software in it (since the nextstep times)

Sehr gut post. Ich habe gerade gesehen das Sie sind aus Deutscheland.

D-land is schoen. Ich hab fuer 13 jahren gelebt.

Trotzdem, you are correct. Apple really needs to either, "STEP UP" or "OPEN UP". Ignoring customers is never an answer. Maybe a loss of a few market share percentage points will wake them up.

Hope I did not scare you with my German. I do not get to practice much down here in Kuwait.

look at here !

Appointments are one thing. More important for me are synchronized contacts. I always has to drag an edited contact to the desktop, send it via bluetooth to the phone after i deleted the previous version on the phone. Possible, but not very comfortable. Maybe we have to do it that way becaus it's a business phone - you can't handle it without a lot of work... 😉

Let me save you one step of work. Place the Bluetooth File Exchange app in the Dock, and simply drag the card from Address Book onto that.

Petvas,

By far the best solution was offered by you. I've made an account at 4smartphones and my Entourage syncs perfectly. However, my M600i with ActiveSync does not succeed to sync. I get a 'Time Out' error...

Any experience with this?

It sould be nice if iSync support was provided, particularly if I've got to wait until Q4 for the iPhone to come to Europe.

I watched the keynote - the iPhone really makes the M600i look like a bit of old junk doesn't it!

I have recently gotten my hands on the most perfect
phone for me; the Sony Ericsson m600i. UMTS & triband
GSM.

However, it does not sync with OS X.

I have managed to get it paired with OS X, as well as
getting it recognised with iSync, but when the isync
app is being installed on the phone, the phone
complains that the app installation script is no
longer supported (this is a UIQ3.0 phone).

Please, please help. I am replacing my ipaq 4700 with
this phone, but I need the address book and the
calendar.

Thank you in advance.

You could try to use a workaround solution provided by Thierry Girard in Basel- here is the link:

The work around is for P990 but they have the same Symbian system so it should work fine also with M600.

Thank you! The program works superbly with my M600i!! Now I can wait patiently on the iPhone to be launced in the fall!

Hi guys,

I was thinking... wouldn't this work:

Sync your M600/P990 with gCal (Google Calendar) using goosync.com (or similar service).

Then sync gCal with iCal using this program:
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/24117 (Spanning Sync).


At first I was thinking, syncing M600/P990 with K800/W850 and then sync with iSync, but apparently it's not possible to get calendar from K800/W850 to M600/P990, only the other way around, so that wouldn't work. But I think the above thing should work. I don't have a UIQ 3.0 device at this time though, for testing.

Looks like the 10.4.9 update doesn't support the M600i either.

Why should Apple support M600i when the iPhone is coming? They'll let us wait for a long time, because they want us to buy an iPhone. I won't do that.

I can live without a cellular phone. And since i saw a movie from www.naturalscience.org i know it's much more healthier to live without microwaves. It's everyones decision - i made mine.

Todays mobile phones don't present a significant health risk as they use very low powers, frequencies that aren't dangerous and have directional antennas that direct all the radiation away from you.
Basesations however are different as they are high power so that the mobiles can be low power.
Also to live "without radiowaves" you will need to get into a lead box or move to the middle of nowhere, and even then you will be getting them beamed down at you from satellites.
