The W800 is not on the compatibility page on Apples website. However it will PROBERBLY sill work with iSync. THe thing that you are doing wrong is that iSync is not compatible with the USB cable. You are going to have to do it through bluetooth....

Assuming you have bluetooth....pair the phone with the computer...make sure the 'Sync with isync' is ticked....then open iSync, and click on Add device....you will see ur phone and then click ok...it should work now...if you want a more detailed step by step guild just say.

Official W800 support was added with iSync v2.1 and IS listed on Apple's iSync compatibility page so it definately should work. However, as mentioned above you must use Bluetooth to sync, not the USB cable.

Check out the following thread for lots of Mac tips, or see my web-site:
