Yeah it's a bit different on the K850 though. It just asked me for a location which I set to London, and the clock went back on it automatically as it should have..
So what do I do? Set the location to Paris or something and set the clock back an hour manually? =/ |

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard recognises P990i as a 'card reader' and mounts phone's external memory card.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Not been around for a while [again!] but am posting this here and not in the SE forum because it is of specific interest to Mac users with the SE P990i.
I've just upgraded my Intel Mac to Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. I just connected my P990i to my Mac to see whether the OS upgrade had fixed the syncing issues.
Well it has to a point: put the phone in File Transfer mode and connect to your Mac via the usb cable. Lo and behold, it now mounts the external disk on the Mac desktop as an MS-DOS formatted volume.
So, in other words, OS X 10.5 now reads the phone's memory card using the phone as though it were a card reader! Yay! So file transfer at least is fixed for us neglected Mac users but still no syncing to my knowledge.
It's a start at least.

Yes, I think you should set the clock back 1 hour manually.
@wiccaman
Sony Ericsson released a P990 iSync plugin a few months back:

To anyone that has the same problem as me. Just set the TimeZone to GMT - 1 eg Greenland and manually put the clock an hour forward and re-sync.
Kind of a ugly way around it, and I don't see why it should be a problem in the first place but there you go. |

Yeah, I know about that but for me, like a lot of users, it doesn't work! I can't u/g my phone's firmware as it's tied to Orange UK

Does anybody know how to use your computer's internet connection on your phone by Bluetooth?
Is see al those PAN-things etc, but that's using the internet of your phone. I want to use the internet of the my computer. I have a K850i and Leopard.

Hi, sorry but this thread is too big to look all the way through...
Quick question: Is there an application I can download to help put music on a w850 from a mac?
Does the iSync from Feisar.com do that?
I'm new to macs and easily confused. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance! |

It's a shame the P990 can't sync with iSync as easily as the P900.... that was definitely a great feature that will hopefully be ironed out soon.

The iSync Phone Plugins from Feisar are for syncing Contacts and Calendars to your phone. iSync doesn't handle music, photos or any other media.
You actually don't need any additional software to put music on your phone. Either connect via USB cable in 'File Transfer' mode, and drag and drop the files, or send the files via Bluetooth using the "Bluetooth File Exchange" application on your Mac.

I'm syncing my K850i a lot with iCal, but I don't have a default reminder on the phone. So for all of my appointments I have to set a reminder manually on the phone. Does anybody know by chance if there's a function to set all appointments with a reminder of let's say an hour? |

i'm new in this forum.
i just wanted to say hi to the mac users here in this forum.
when i first got my w810i, it was branded so I decided to flash it into another version. i was disappointed that the applications only works in windows. or even the SEUS. so i guess their not changing that any time soon right? |
