For some unknown reason my address book (Snow Leopard) lost its synchronisation with my iPhone. Firstly it stopped updating things, and then it got to the point where I lost all the contacts off my iPhone (thankfully I had them backed up) and it would no longer sync between my iPhone and iPod and Mac computer.

I talked with Apple, they couldn’t help. I spend over and hour with the mobileme chat line, and subsequent e-mails and in the end I gave up.

This week I came across this great article which fixed everything! If you’re having issues with Apple address book definitely give this a try.

I just got a Samsung D900i but it doesn’t sync with isync as isync only syncs with the D900.

I modified the isync plugin so here’s how to get it going…

1. Download this file and unzip it, you should end up with a folder called Samsung-D900.phoneplugin.
2. Go to applications, isync and right click or control click and go to ‘show package contents’
3. Open the isync Contents folder, then Plugins, then ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice, then Contents, then Plugins.
4. Drag my Samsung-D900.phoneplugin file into that folder, next to all the other phone plugin files. it will ask if you want to overwrite the existing folder, say Overwrite.
5. Make sure bluetooth is turned on on your phone (applications bluetooth) , and on your computer (preferences/bluetooth). Choose add new bluetooth device under the bluetooth preference pane on your macintosh and add your phone. Open isync and it should now sync with your new D900i.

6. Note: if you want to mount your  D900i as a USB drive that is a separate issue, look here.

Some people have asked for a G600 version. No idea if this will work but you could try this one. It’s just the D900 with the name changed. Same instructions as above but I’d delete the D900 plugin as it may clash with his one. Let me know if it works!
