Mac and ActiveSync problem

[OMGWTF_BBQ]

Fellow Mac/TP2/SyncMate user here.

Let's start with the basics.
With the TP2 plugged in. On SyncMate, did you go to "Add connection" in the upper right hand corner next to the "Sync Now" button and select "Windows Mobile Device (USB)"?
Make sure you aren't selecting "WiFi".

From there, give it a minute or two and it will configure the drivers, Then it should sync flawlessly.

What is happening? "Nothing" is a little vague.
Is it showing the device as "Offline"? Is it registering at all? Is it connecting to your device like a usb storage card?

I just plug in my TP2. Load SyncMate and select "ActiveSync" on my TP2.
