How To Use iSync With Unsupported Nokia Phones

After switching to a Mac, I realized that the Nokia PC Suite that came with my Nokia N93 only runs on Windows. Keeping my calendar and address book up to date is crucial, so the hunt for the Mac equivalent led me to the mactomster iSync plugin.

UPDATE April 13th, 2007 Nokia released their own plugins. Check http://nokia.com/mac

Download the mactomster iSync plugin.

It’s all about bluetooth, so you no longer need the USB cable attached to the phone to sync with the computer. The plugin, however is only for the calendar and address book. In order to install games, applications, or import videos and photos, I have to switch into File transfer mode in the N93.

The Nokia phones supported by his plugin are: E50, E60, E61, E70, N71, N72, N73, N80, N91, N92, N93, 3250, 5500 sport, 6131, 6233, 6234.

Installation is simple:
Drag the yellow icon to the red icon.
mactomster isync plugin install

Make sure Bluetooth is ON in your phone.

Open iSync and choose ‘Devices > Add Device.’ Double-click the phone once it is found.

UPDATE: Looks like you no longer need this guide! The latest beta of Parallels recognized my Nokia N93 just by connecting my phone.
