Quick question about mogul and mac

[chrisf707]

Hello all, new to the forum with a quick question.

I am planning on getting a Mogul sometime in the next month, and I already know im going to want to add apps. Im just wondering how compatible the phone is with mac, and if I am going to run into any difficulties installing them since I have a mac.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

If sync doesnt work with it but this application might solve your issue and sync with itunes!

See the Missing Sync for Windows Mobile from Markspace.com

Unless the installer is an .exe file you can pretty much use the Missing Sync to install and sync everything.

I would avoid PocketMac as they don't seemed to offer the level of support and frequent product updates when compared to MarkSpace.

Get SyncMate, it's free and I'm currently using it on my Mac, works great!

if there is anything you want to install that has an exe installer, you can usually just extract the cab file from it.

thanks for the info guys... now i just have to go to the sprint store and check out the mogul and q9c... most likely going with the mogul.

Could you give us a short rundown of how you got it to work? I've tried all the different versions of SyncMate from 1.0.x to now the release 1.1.315 and nothing. When I plug in the usb cable, nothing happens! I know it's supposed to install a .cab file on the Mogul but nothing happens. Please help. I really need to get this working. Thanks so much!

Are you running on an Intel Mac or PPC? Have you tried setting disabling the "Advanced Networking" in the Mogul's USB connection? Go into "Connections"-->"USB to PC"--> and uncheck that box. Then try connecting your Mogul to the Mac.

You might also try connecting via WiFi, which should be pretty self-explanatory, provided you know how to get your current IP address.

get the mogul dude, its a great phone, has bugs, but one of the best cdma phones out. dont get a q9c, your talking chevy to ferrari in comparison

check the touch out too, its an awesome phone. the touch and mogul are neck and neck
