I have a t616 and I've had bluetooth on my MACINTOSH G4 for some time now.

I recently tried synching the phone with my calendar and address book but I have a bunch of problems:

1. The phone does not receive any of the information from the address book. I went ahead and MANUALLY merged everything from my phone into my address book and then reset the phone.

The phone Synchronizes ... says its complete but doesn't receive any of the information. What's next? Is there an option on the phone that I have not turned on?

2. I also tried synching my calendar ... the good news; It recognizes all the task and events. Bad news; all the schooled events are off by many many hours. (example: if I have a meeting at 8pm on Sunday. My phone will say I have a meeting at 5am). Its all over the place. Why?

I'm completely lost ... I've spent hours on this thing. I need help.

Please write back or e-mail directly with any suggestions on fixing these problems.

Your second problem is easy to fix... You have to make sure that the phone and Mac are set in the same Time Zone.

On the Mac this is in System Preferences > Date and Time

On the Phone this is in Settings > Time and date > Advanced > Time Zone

Also check the Daylight-saving setting in there too...

I'll try to help with your syncing problem later, but I'm just off out for the evening! I'm sure we can get it sorted - mine works pretty much perfectly!
