Re: Touch Pro for Mac users
Are you running an Intel Mac? If so, you'd probably be better off playing with your Pro in the Windows world by running Boot Camp or Parallels on your Mac. I too am a diehard Mac fan and initially wasn't able to do much with my 6700 when I got it three years ago - nor did I know of its capabilities. As soon as I started running Windows on my Mini (and now MacBook) and saw the capabilities it opened up with that 6700, I was in love. I'm just as excited about the possibilities of the Pro now. Yep, WinMo does have its quirks, and it was definitely a learning curve in the beginning, but definitely worth it. These devices, along with all the great information on boards like this make it so much fun!
And to answer your specific questions, Missing Sync is the only solution I know of that allows backing up a WinMo device to a Mac. But, this isn't something I've used or know much about since I back up on the WIndows side.
Last I checked, a Mac isn't able to recognize a WinMo device connected to it, so you're not able to move files to-and-fro. If this is something you want to try, your best bet might be to use a card reader, connect it to the Mac, move the cabs you want to use to the card, then put the card back in the phone and run the cabs that way. Again, don't know that this would work, as its not something I've done. But, if you really want to unlock the potential of this device and install costom ROMs, you're going to need to be able to run Windows.
Good luck!
