I appreciate people aren't keen on "help" threads, but I'm hoping some experts might be able to help.

I have a new SE W800 and have installed Disk2Phone on my work PC. I want to be able to transfer music using my home computer, except the Disk2Phone software won't install on my Mac because it's not Mac OS10/X.

Anyone know where I can get drivers/ software/ anything to let me transfer music to my memory card? Or even how I can do so with my set-up?

Tried scouring the web for old versions of SE software, and the SE website only offers software downloads for Windows PCs?

You'll need to upgrade to Mac OS X (preferably 10.4 Tiger) then your W800 will work perfectly with the Mac over Bluetooth without any additional software.

There is no SE software for Macs (apart from an official Theme Creator and Bluetooth HID file creator for Mac OS X). Everything is built-in to Mac OS X/

Unfortunately Mac OS 9 is officially dead as operating systems go and it hasn't been updated for about 5 years.

If you upgrade to Mac OS X as well as being able to transfer music you'll also be able to sync your contacts, calendars and to do lists with iSync.

You can copy music to the phone straight from iTunes just by dragging and dropping.

It's far better than using a PC to do it all.

Thanks for the help - That's exactly what I was fearing.
