Does anyone know if the V800 works with iSync? |

@sapporobaby I teach adults on PCs and a lot of my students come to me with this or that tale of woe - viruses, spyware - but in a Windows PC world, Windows is a self-generating thing: I train people on Windows so when they buy a computer it is a Windows machine because that is what they are used to, so in my small way, I am responsible for the continuing proliferation of Windows! LOL

Oops! This was supposed to be a post from my fone but it ended up being sent blank! Wouldn't keep me logged in either - maybe because I'm still logged in on my Mac?

@s40Convert.
It should. I have a z1010, s700, and k700 and they all seem to sync quite well. The v800 came out somewhere in between but it has not been included on the website. The thing to do is to try it and see. JoolsG4 might be able to provide more info.
@TheWic,
I am on my second Mac already in less than a year and I am looking to get the Mac Mini and convert it into a server? I will WiFi and Bluetooth it up, put in about a gig of ram, a large and fast HD. From here, I will transfer all of my iTunes to it. Luckily I have a friend that works for Apple, so I already have a copy of Mac OS X Server.

If it doesn't work straight out of the box, try this hint:

Hi, a newcomer on this forum. 
I juste replaced my T68i by a K700i.
Basically, I find the same features that I need, BUT ONE (and I would kill SE for that) : no fax !
SE Belgium said some thrid party software developers have a K700 resident software that would allow faxes. Does any of you old wise people have a clue ?
For the rest, all is fine : syncing with AddressBook succeed at the first try, same for iCal, sending and receiving SMS and/or dialling via the AddressBook is no probs, ans after installation of the Salling clicker basic, I have a decent equivalent of the T68's Romeo as well ... Only the fax ... |

Greetings all;
I've managed to Sync my p910 to my 17"PB for quite some time now... The only problem is that the icon doesn't show up in iSync. I'm guessing it's becuase the P910 isn't officially supported yet. Has anyone had success in getting the icon to show up? |

You might want to try and contact Jools or pop over to the Apple site and what you can dig up. Not trying to put you on a downer but if Jools can not put you on the right course then your problem is almost beyond help.

You have to make a file called P910-1.tiff in the directory where there's also a P900.tiff file. Search for where it is on your hard drive as I have a hangover right now. It's somewhere in /system
Oh, and just outa interest, has anyone else gotten their mac mini's yet? Mine's sitting on my desk next to my 21inch monitor 
It's really quiet, it's amazing!!

**LONG POST**
This one's been picking my brains for quite sometime now. I'm on an iBook G4 running 10.3.8 and latest BT and iSync versions.
First I had problems selecting the option to sync the R2AE033 equipped K700i with the iBook G4 (Gigabyte BT adapter to start with, now with a D-Link DWB 120M USB BT adapter), and pairing the devices both ways kinda solved the trivia at the time, then it all began going downhill. Let me elaborate.
The first occurrences of something going wrong was when syncing the phone with the mac resulted in deletion of contacts I had just processed/entered in the moby...then this plague sort of moved onto the calendar entries. That's when I decided to perform a master reset of the handset in case something had gone terribly wrong during the firmware update process (handset was previously on R2L). Now when I came back after then reset (victorious I assumed at first) everything was syncing perfectly etc, no problems whatsoever, until I noticed that some of the contacts were not being synced properly into the iPod I also have in my possession. One thing led to the other, I exported all my contacts from AddressBook in vcards, did the same with my calendar entries and got rid of all iCal, iSync, AddressBook and SyncService occurrences both in my user path and some SyncService stuff in the Library path I believe. I then restarted the system, made sure that the Bluetooth preferences pane had no instances of either the phone or any other device, imported my contacts back into AddressBook via dragging and dropping the respective vcards and did the same with my iCal events, too. Next up was resetting the handset again, pairing with the mac, syncing and sort of trying to get along with the rest of my life until today...About a week after all this jazz, this is all coming back to me again in a slightly altered version though.
Below is an abstract of the error message I get trying to sync the K700 with the mac. Now, calendars seem to behave for the time being, it's just the AddressBook contacts that refuse to sync when the device contains the updated info / new entries. Kinda irritating if you ask me, this phone is giving me headaches, please help!
Conduit RTouris K700i generated an internal error NSInvalidArgumentException (*** -[NSCFDate firstName]: selector not recognized): can't get the sync mode.
Can't get sync mode for provider RTouris K700i, data class contacts\
I'm still trying to figure out if it's true what they say about revenge being a plate that's always served cold. I want my revenge, I need to get this stupid thing working so that I can move on with the rest of my bloody life. Loosing contacts all the time's cost me much already, wasn't this stuff supposed to be trouble free and easy to setup?
Could it be that I need to reflash the handset? Maybe the new firmware hasn't been properly installed in the handset? A member of the technical department in the store where I took the moby to update the firmware on the first place denied this could have anything to do with the problems I'm facing here and insisted that there is something wrong in the system I'm using.
Which gives?
P.S: I tried creating a new user and syncing all the devices again, still no go.
Your suggestions and comments appreciated. |

Try resetting all the devices. I get this error every so often. Not sure why. Also, I am using E2Sycn, to sync with Entourage. Try the resetting and see if this solves your problems. It seems to work for me. I have a PB with built in BT, but the results still should be the same.

I did reset the devices after the first time I got this message, however a couple of syncs down the line I get the same error again...
How about reinstalling the firmware, anyone experienced corrupted installations that would lead to such behaviour? |

Make sure that your phone is not set up to sync "all day" events. I had mucho errors until I unchecked this.

Calendar events sync fine, it's them addressbook contacts that give me grief currently...Not to mention that most of my calendars are 'all day events' - (namedays, anniversaries and the likes), still they don't seem to pose any threat to the sync process for the time being.
