Mac OS Users

[zavoid]

So anyone else a mogul user and Mac OS user?

I'm on 10.4.10 and I can't get MacOS X to reconize the mogul as an actual phone or device to send files to(just the ability to use it as a hand set)

nor can i get it working with the missing sync for windows mobile 4.0 alpha..

anyone else?

Mac user here. I was able to pair it as a phone. I have not tried bluetooth tethering yet. I am contemplating paying for the PAM plan again to use that. I notice that 10.4.10 ushered in Bluetooth PAN for the mac, at least it did on my Core2 duo macbook. I find however on my mac, I cant send files to the Mogul or browse it, so this is pretty much useless unless I get the PAM plan and start using it as my mobile connection.

were you able to get it working with missing sync? anything special you did to get it to work?

anyone anyone?

it took a few attempts to pair it, but I got PAN working; starting the pairing from the mac works sometimes, but not always for some reason. Even though it didn't say anything about it when pairing, doing a "send file" from the bluetooth menubar icon will show the PPC as a device you can send to. Just pick a file and it should work. Also make sure you have accept incoming beams turned on, that controls both IR and bluetooth file transfers.

can you give me some details how you got it to work?


did you ever set it up with active sync first? maybe i should hard reset mine and try again.. was it via usb or bluetooh with the new missing sync alpha?

It worked on the first try. Make sure you are downloading and using the beta. I also sync up to a windows machine when I have to install a program that only comes with a windows installer.

missing sync for windows mobile version 4.0.0 a3 (404)

[hall316]

Yes that is what I meant. I'm using the alpha version of 4.0 and having no issues. I did use that program before I synced with a windows machine. On the windows machine, I am not syncing anything, but using it to install programs that only have a windows installer program.
