Had this working before I upgraded to leopard and got a new 6300 on the same day! Now I just can’t get the replacement handset to work with Leopard…did everything the same way. Keep getting a ‘the following plugin will not work with this version of isync’ (i have v 3.0). Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks.

Where are the contact pictures stored on the phone? I can’t add any pictures because there’s not enough memory and f*cking Nokia won’t let me delete their stupid themes taking up all the space. Grrrr…

Daan: You use the Bluetooth Exchange Utility to copy images from your phone to your mac. Just select Connect to Device from the Bluetooth menu.

I used the plug-in for pictures (the last one) to get pictures that I’ve taken with the camera on the phone onto my MacBook. I can’t get it to work. Can anybody help? Or is it only possible to transfer contact-linked pictures? Thanks!

Hi Kjeld

Thank you for the 6300 iSync application.

I was wondering if you know a way to use the sms-function which follows with the address book?

hello,

im trying to install the hack to synchronize my phone with my computer (macbook osx 10.5 isync 3.0)

but i have troubles…

i first tried the manual editing of the MetaClasses file, after starting isync and finding the phone, when i tried to sync i had the message “no device activated” and then a red cross appeared on the icon of the phone.

so i putted the original metaclasses and tried to install the hack with the plugins but then i got this message when starting isync : “The following plug-in doesnâ€™t work with this version of iSync. Click the arrow to show the plug-in, move or delete it, and then open iSync again.”

I read in the comment that someone already succeed with isync 3.0…

anyone got an idea how to slove this problem?

many thanks.

What a great plugin.
Took 10sec to install, Sync and presto everything on phone. I have a few double ups in contacts so have to see why, but all the calendar info, tasks and contacts are there.

You are a life saver.

Thanks for the plugin.

Well Done.

I cannot install the plug-in for my nokia 6300 properly on my OS X 3.9. with isynch 1.5. All helping instructions seem to work only from OS.x 4 and later …
I do not even find a plug-in folder in the content folder of the isynch program
Is there any idea to help me synchronise me new nokia phone? that would be so great!!!

After a few more tries … the stalls seem to be caused by the pictures used.

- Adding profile pictures from facebook seems to work great, if you first drop em on your desktop and then move them in the adressbook
- pictures from my EOS 20D work well, after I first resize them to 240×180 px
- other pictures work randomly… I could usually solve the problem by playing around with the picture directly in adress book

To find out which pictures were working, I simply added a group from which I synched to my phone, added all contacts to that group and tried them one by one. Took a little while, but now all contacts are working just fine.

Ok … now a recap

I removed the “manual” plugin you once provided on this site and installed the “photo” plugin. It seemed to work at first but randomly stalls. The other plugin works stable.

On the 6300 I have software version 5.0
My ISync is v3.0

All the best
Kay

P.S.: It would be great if the “photo” plugin were more stable, but otherwise keep up the great work!

Mhh, just realized the other plugin does not work either. Could it be because I did it manually the first time? … I can’t find the instructions on your web page anymore.

Hi,

I can’t seem to get to work the birthday/picture plugin on iSync 3.0 … the other one works fine, however and I love it!

Keep up the great work!

I am currently using the Nokia 6300 plugin without support for contact photos and birthdays, and I have recently updated my phone to software version 5.50 — It is working for me.

Rocco — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 20:47:27 +0000

Great PluIn!
But could it be that the Plug-In doesnÂ´t Sync Phones with Software Version 5.5?
With 5.0 iSync was possible!

I could connect mobile to Mac but just if I use a wire.

A supoptimal solution for me… has anyone found a way to use bluetooth?

Well, i could connect the phone and the mac BUT just if I use a wire??

Is there a way that I could use Bluetooth as well?

Thanks for your help

Hey, i tried your plug in but it doesn’t work for me at all. I did exactly as described but my Nokia doesn’t even get found. (and yes my bluetooth was activated)

Any ideas?

thanks for your help

Thanks for the plugin. Works fine. There is one problem though: it doesn’t sync birthdays. Randomly it syncs some. Strange! Could you help me? Do I do something wrong?

Just tried the latest plug-in and it worked pretty well. With the dates, all day events seem to be assigned randomly to 2 categories. Those that are assigned as Memos are all day with no start and stop times. Some are assigned as meetings, and this gives them a start and stop time that is always the same, i.e. 13:00 and 13:00, but these times seem to be random as I have birthdays and other events on the Nokia that start all over the place after the sync.

Perhaps if someone could figure out why these are assigned to different categories it might provide some answers. Checking the phone handbook reveals that you can also set birthday’s and reminders.

Still, contacts are fine which to me is the important thing.
