Nokia 6500 Slide iSync plug-in

nokia 6500 slideI just bought a Nokia 6500 Slide… My old N80 died and I needed a good phone waiting for the iPhone to hit the norwegian market. Great phone btw but with no iSync support, so I modified and made this plugin Nokia 6500 Slide iSync plug-in. If you run Snow Leopard Peter Sommerlad has kindly provided an updated plugin here.To make it work, unzip and the the folder “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin” in ../library/phoneplugins and start iSync and add your phone. Make sure your bluetooth is enabled on both Mac and phone. Then just sync away…(…or you could just wait for the iPhone).

Update:
Some people have problems syncing after Apples latest OSX update and/or a newer firmware for the phone than me. I have not been able to find out why, and it seem others that have made a plugin can not come around it either. I am now using a iPhone and only use my Nokia when I am drunk or painting the house, so i will not spend more time on updating it. For people with problems I will recommend to only sync one way; from your computer to the phone. Thank you!

  1. Great work! I mwas about to buy the 6500 slide yesterday but didn’t do it because it couldn’t sync with my ibook. And now for a (probably) stupid questian: with your plugin, can I sync ical and other stuff with the phone?

    Comment by Andreas — October 21, 2007 @ 18:12

  2. Yes it works without any problems so far. The only thing I can´t sync is the pictures in my phonelist… but that is not that important… and the phone is very nice!

  3. Hey, came across this from google, is this iSync2.4 or iSync 2.3?

    Comment by JYC — October 25, 2007 @ 9:07

  4. It is 2.4, I have no means of thesting it on 2.3, but it could work. I am hoping that Nokia comes with their own soon though… to also support syncing with pictures. But it works for now…

  5. will this work with USB? Any suggestions as I can’t seem to be able to make it work!

    Cheers

  6. Hi

    I didn’t have the phoneplugins folder so I created it – hope that’s right! Also, should this work with the USB connection, as mine doesn’t seem to!

    Thanks

  7. Thanks – Works Great – Loved the 6500 Slide – Was just fed up that I couldn’t sync with the Mac.

    Thanks again
    Andy.

  8. Hi,
    great that it worked!

    Comment by shl — October 29, 2007 @ 16:00

  9. Do you think this will work on the Nokia 6500 Classic? Thanks for sharing!

    Comment by jack — November 1, 2007 @ 18:58

  10. Me again!

    Was wondering if anyone has any experience using this plugin with OS X Leopard? I have just upgraded and it seems to have broken!

    Comment by Andy (again!) — November 3, 2007 @ 8:05

  11. Sorry, been traveling…

    Andy: The plug-in works fine in my os x leopard. If you used clean install make sure to move it to your new library.

    Jack: I don´t know, but i could if you edited the text in the script with the right name for the device. In the file Metaclasses.plist change every entry with “Nokia 6500s-1″ to “Nokia 6500″. It could work.

    Good luck!

  12. Hi, I got my Nokia 6500 Slide yesterday and have now installed Nokia 6500 Slide iSync plug-in. I tried to ad the phone to iSync, but it still says it does not support this phone. I did place the plugin in the library in a folder called PhonePlugins.. Please help

    Comment by Tanya — November 9, 2007 @ 9:38

  13. It is important that you quit the iSync software between adding the plugin and trying to add the phone. Did you do that?

    Comment by shl — November 10, 2007 @ 13:03

  14. Thank you very much, it works! But I had to put in in the Packagecontent of iSync. (Contents/PlugIns/Applephoneconduit.syndevice/Contents/PlugIns)
    regards, Stella

    Comment by Stella — November 12, 2007 @ 23:14

  15. Thanks a lot, this works like a charm. I simply made a new folder (as it did not exist) called “phoneplugins” in users/../library and it worked right away after i restarted iSync!

    Comment by Janne — November 15, 2007 @ 17:06

  16. Hi, did anyone manage to get this working with the 6500 classic?
    I tried replacing 6500s with 6500c in the files and renaming the folder – didn’t work. I placed the folder in /Library.., /User/Library/.. and the iSync Package folder. No success…
    Damn, it’s really a nice mobile but useless if I can’t synch it…

    Comment by stephan — November 16, 2007 @ 19:25

  17. Hi,

    I successfully got this working with the 6500 Classic. I put it in ~/Library/PhonePlugins and then show package contents on the plugin and changed every occurrent of 6500s-1 to just 6500. Everywhere! Even the icon. In all files.

    then restart iSync and add the device :)

    Comment by Steve — November 17, 2007 @ 1:13

  18. Thanks Steve, but that didn’t work either.
    Could you zip your plugin folder and upload it somewhere? Maybe I’m doing something wrong…

    But wait – you say u did “show package contents” on the plugin. But this is just a normal folder and no package, isn’t it?

    thanks

    Comment by stephan — November 17, 2007 @ 10:39

  19. Tried it again and put the folder only to the /Users/…/Library/PhonePlugins folder and now it works.
    Thanks!

    Comment by stephan — November 18, 2007 @ 14:36

  20. hey guys, i have instlled the changed plugin, have the isync working, but when i go to resync the phone and enteraouge calander and phone contacts, my phone deletes my enterouge contacts. my old phone just used to merge them. is there something i didn’t do correctly?

    cheers

  21. i Must admit i have never tested on entourage since i don´t use it… Have anyone else had similar problems?

    Comment by shl — November 20, 2007 @ 22:15

  22. thanx a lot, the plugin works fine with 10.5.1 (pb g4), and my 6500 slide, the only thing it does not sync are multiple postal adresses (work and private for example). it only syncs the first (upmost) in adressbook, it leaves the others unsynced.
    other multiple entries, like mailadresses or phone numbers are synced correctly.

    best regards,
    sdas.

    Comment by sdas — November 30, 2007 @ 13:28

  23. … found the reason, very simple: the 6500 slide does not support multiple adresses. i didn’t think of this in the first place, because my old nokia 6230i did this without any problem. bad luck, may be nokia will add multiple adress-support via softwareupdate ;-)

    best regards.

    Comment by sdas — December 4, 2007 @ 22:47

  24. I had not realised that my new 6500slide was incompatable with my powerbook and was about to return it when my son suggested a google search for a possible pug-in that led me to your site. Thank you. This is so simple and saved the phone from being thrown back (and in all other respects the phone is pretty good, and I will now wait til the iphone gets a better specification and is available through more carriers, so you’ve saved me £270 at least!!

    Thanks again.

    Comment by Pete — December 5, 2007 @ 16:22

  25. Ok guys I have just had some trouble getting this to work but one thing I will mention, stick the plugin where it says to at the top (I have it in three locations but I’m guessing that’s unnecessary). Then instead of starting iSync and looking for devices, run the Bluetooth setup and add the device, it should then give you the option of adding the device to iSync, do that, then it should work.

    Comment by Jamie — December 5, 2007 @ 19:10

  26. Hi

    Just wanted to say thanks a lot for this, you’ve made me love my phone and iSync again :)

    Comment by Chris — December 7, 2007 @ 15:12

  28. shl, you are a genius!. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It is great to be able to use this phone for syncing.
    I have just one problem that I hope you can advise. I’m using an Intel iMac with OS 10.4.11, iSync 2.4 and a 6500 slide. They talk to each other fine (with transferring data from iCal and Address Book). Only problem is iSync wants to delete entries from my computer at times (from iCal and Address Book). The iMac is the master and the phone is the slave. I don’t make changes to data on the phone. Only on the iMac. I can’t find an option in the preferences to only allow transfers of data from computer to phone. NOT phone to computer. Any ideas? Thank you!

    Comment by Jason - Sydney — December 10, 2007 @ 21:44

  29. Hi,
    strange problem, but since i am really a designer and not a programmer it could happen:) It is probably a case of your address book contains more fields than the phone support and then data look different. Still I have not been able to replicate the problem on my mac´s.

    What you are looking for is just syncing one way. The easiest way to do this i actually to reset the device each time. Then the sync software just fills both your calender and address book. You just select the phone in iSync then choose reset device from the devices menu.

    Kind of a temp solution, but will work:) It seem Apple have abounded iSync for other mobiles a little and the choses in the prefs are limited.

    Comment by shl — December 11, 2007 @ 12:53

  30. Thanks so much for this elegant solution. I had the same problem with my old Nokia phone and iSync. I bought a piece of software for it which was effective but took too long – so I only used it occasionally. this resulted in lost data – especially when my phone was stolen. A simple click on the sync button will fix that thanks to you…

    Comment by David — December 13, 2007 @ 1:11

  31. Awesome, great job…..

    My computer just needed a restart, now it works without any problems thanks very much.

    Comment by Bert — December 13, 2007 @ 10:52

  32. Great work! Now have to find out if the syncing with iSync does not interfere with the syncing from Google Calendar via gSync…

    By the way: if your looking for a handy mobile phone with great functionality, keep this phone and DON’T buy this generation iPhone. I just sold my iPhone because I got fed up with all the problems it has in Europe.

    Comment by seb — December 18, 2007 @ 4:04

  33. Hi!
    It works! At first I extracted the package content and put it in library/phoneplugins . it din work. but i realised perhaps i just dump the whole thing in without extracting, it works! No need to change the name, just create a folder in library/phoneplugins and dump the package 6500s-1 in will work. Thanks alot =DDD

  34. perfect!

    Comment by Benedikt from Germany — December 18, 2007 @ 4:05

  35. fantastic, many thanks! – in Leopard I just created a phoneplugins folder in the Library folder, added the download, opened Isync, added my phone and it all worked without a problem.

  38. Thanks a lot, this plug-in was a real help to me.

    I too purchased a Nokia 6500s today. Like lots of people I wanted to wait on the iPhone but just yesterday my vintage Nokia 6110 suddenly died on me. I needed a phone quick and am happy with this new slider. It makes waiting for the iPhone just a little more bearable.. ;-)

    Comment by Bas — January 4, 2008 @ 16:36

  39. Thanks so much!

    Worked well. I was NOT looking foward to putting a couple of hundred contacts into my phone manually!

    Comment by Trev — January 6, 2008 @ 9:28

  40. Hi. Just wanted to drop a note of thank you for the plug in. It’s really been a great help.

    Comment by dave — January 7, 2008 @ 16:00

  41. I can’t make this work. Download fine. Dragged into the phoneplugins folder, fine. Open iSync and it still wants to talk to my old phone, but claims that the 6500s isn’t supported. Though while iSync is scanning for devices, the phone briefly says it’s connected to the computer. I may have to throw phone and MacBook out of the window soon. In case I’ve put this in wrongly: In phoneplugins I have Contents; in Contents I have Info.plist and Resources. In Resources I have MetaClasses.plist and NOK6500S-1.tiff. I’ve tried restarting and deleting and downloading again and then restarting. I’m SO envious. I have 295 contacts and can’t face bluetoothing them all from my old phone, which also doesn’t want to sync with this one.

    Comment by Jess — January 7, 2008 @ 22:38

  42. OK!! Thank you! You have saved my phone and mac from their first (and last) flying lessons and me from several hours of laborious data entry. It was my dragging and dropping that was the problem, and not quitting iSync when trying again. Path was wrong or iSync was still open. Phew!

    Thank you SO much.

    Comment by Jess — January 7, 2008 @ 22:58

  43. Very good!

    Comment by shl — January 7, 2008 @ 23:02

  44. I have just started using my Nokia 6500s-1. I had previously synched my N70 to my iMac which is running OS X10.5.1 and iSync3.0.

    I have placed the unzipped files in a folder called phoneplugins as instructed. However I continue to have problems trying to get iSync to recognise my phone. It keeps saying unsupported. I have also stopped and restarted iSync and even the iMac to no avail. Any suggestions?

  45. OK I searched on the web and finally found out how to follow Stella’s instructions:

    Thank you very much, it works! But I had to put in in the Packagecontent of iSync. (Contents/PlugIns/Applephoneconduit.syndevice/Contents/PlugIns)
    regards, Stella
    “Unquote

    Put the (zipped) package in the PlugIns folder and it worked! PHEW!

    Thanks for creating this plug-in. It has saved me a lot of hassle.

    Comment by Sree — January 9, 2008 @ 13:44

  46. My instruction is a little unclear:) The unzipped folder called “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin” should be put in the …/library/phoneplugins folder to work correctly. But Stellas way works too;)

    Happy syncing!

  48. Hi, I’m using Nokia 6500 Classic and have followed the instructions to install the plugin. I have also edited the text in the script with the right name for the device – in the file Metaclasses.plist change every entry with “Nokia 6500s-1″ to “Nokia 6500″.

    A connection was established. My calendar info is able too sync to ical, but contacts were not sync-ed to address book. Have I missed any steps? Kindly advise. Thanks!

  50. Hi Guys,

    I’m on mac osx 10.5.1 leopard and using isync 3.0. I’ve tried the above but it still doesn’t work for me.

    Comment by James — January 12, 2008 @ 13:45

  51. Thanks for all your help. Did as per the instruction. But it still wasn’t working. To fix it I went to the bluetooth setup (Set up bluetooth device) and it worked a treat after that. I’m usually pretty good at these little cracks and work around’s. But this one took me all afternoon.. Cheers. Thanks, once again. PHEW!!! I now like my Nokia 6500 slide. My hundreds of contacts on my macbook are now synchronized.

    Comment by James — January 12, 2008 @ 14:15

  52. Thanx Guys, got the Nokia 6500 Classic to work on my Mac running 10.4.9.- isync 2.4
    Downloaded the nokia6500s-1phoneplugin.zip file, Unzipped to disktop. Changed all the file names to say 6500
    then opened the MetaClasses.plist file with TextEdit.app, edited all 6500s code-text to 6500, closed TextEdit then just made a folder called Phoneplugins, placed all changed files to that folder then put the Phoneplugins folder in Users/Library.
    Pair your 6500 classic via bluetooth the normal way, launch isync and sync away. don’t you just love the power of the information highway.

    Thanx to all

  53. Hello Everyone!
    I’ve got my 6500s for several months but I just can’t find any plugin for 6500s.
    Luckily, I found this page.
    However, I just can’t sync my 6500s. Is it related to my isync is 3.0?
    Please help !!!

  54. Fantastic, thanks for this. You’re right though, the moment iPhone is available in Australia, this 6550 is going out the window!
    Cheers mate.

  55. Hello and thank you for that great tool!

    I would like to ask if it is compatible with the v4.81 of the phone.
    I did the update (to version 4.81) and it seems to have some problems while syncing the contacts.. (Can’t complete the contact sync.)

    Thank you!

  59. Hi

    The following error appears whenever I try to sync:
    [6500s-1] There was an error getting data from the phone. The synchronization may have been cancelled on the phone.

    It worked on the first sync, but not sure why it’s not working now. The sync freezes on the phone at a particular calendar record: 173 of 228 items. It might have been a calendar item that I edited but now can’t figure out which it is. Attempted to reset device using isync, also unable to as the sync does not complete. Please help!

    I am using the 6500 slide with powerpc PB running Tiger 10.4.11 and iSync 2.4

  60. Hi,

    Thanks a lot for your work!

    But… just one question.

    Has anyone the problem of calendar entries that last a hole day to be displayed with a duration from 13:00 to 13:00?

    Ralf

    Comment by Ralf M. — January 22, 2008 @ 23:18

  61. shl: I did the update on windows!

    Cheryl Lee: what is you phone’s software version?

    Comment by nikzaster — January 23, 2008 @ 3:00

  62. phone software details:
    V 04.81
    22-11-07
    RM-240

    The problem is I cannot add new “meetings” to the calendar notes via the phone. If I do, that entry jams the sync process until the phone fore-quits the sync. Deleting and re-installing the phone on iSync, along with deleting all calendar entries on my phone, then re-syncing it all solved this problem. However, being unable to add new calendar items is quite crippling. Would appreciate any help. Thanks!

    Comment by Cheryl Lee — January 24, 2008 @ 6:31

  63. Hi,
    yes it seem there are a problem with the plugin on phones with a newer firmware. I have not yet been able to update to test. Until then people with the V 04.81 or newer should probably not use the plugin.

    Comment by shl — January 24, 2008 @ 9:19

  64. Hi,

    would first like to say great work on the plugin but i’ve run into an issue regarding syncing with addressbook. The problem at hand is that contacts from my phone are not able to be transferred onto my macbook. Would appreciate any help. Thanks!

    Comment by GC — January 24, 2008 @ 17:46

  65. Hi
    @ Cheryl Lee

    I have the problem too, syncing notes breaks iSync but only notes, all other calendar entry types work!
    After adding a note to the calendar iSync wants to change lots of entries in addressbook, especially those with german umlaute äöü and special characters like ß.
    In my case the problem could be resolved by resetting the phone in iSync after deleting the note.

  66. Hi

    Just wanted to say thanks for the plugin. Having finally got round to ditching my windows mobile I was worried for a minute i wasn’t going to be able to sync my contacts until I found your website.

    Seems to have done the trick, thankfully!

    Comment by Ema F — January 26, 2008 @ 2:28

  67. more than one phone!
    thanks so much this was a painfree way of getting isync to work with my 6500 slide. I hit a couple of problems which were easily resolved with the help found in comments here.

    1) If you do not have a phoneplugins library just create a new folder in the system/library and drag the folder into it.

    2) I needed to sync two 6500 phones and only the first worked. The second still showed as not compatible with isync.I resolved this by using the “add bluetooth device” in the bluetooth menu from top right menu and pairing the second phone again which then gave me the option to add to isync device list.

    Sorted! Thanks so much :)
    created the phoneplugins folder in my library

  70. James, I bought a rather unexpensive Bluetooth dongle. You can get one of these for less than £5, quick and easy

    Comment by raz — January 30, 2008 @ 15:52

  71. Another thing, thanks to the comments left on here, I’ve managed to sync mine up. Cheers guys!!

    On the downside, isync cant sync a number of contacts, think that’s something to do with multple address’. The rather helpful message informed me th at it “couldn’t sync ‘name1′, ‘name2′,’name3′ and another 27 contacts” ….. brilliant!!!

  73. @tarrant

    if your phone software version is v4.81 you will have to wait for the plugin update.

  74. ah, ok, thank you!

    Comment by tarrant — February 1, 2008 @ 20:33

  75. Just a note to say that I really appreciate you producing this plugin. Works brilliantly, no problems at all. I was getting a bit worried I wouldn’t be able to sync my 6500 slide with my Mac, but you came to the rescue :)

    Than export to CSV. Bring to your mac.
    Reset all your phone ….
    Install the phone plugins
    Open Address Book. Import Contact (CSV) by text file…
    Open iSync…
    Sync it…..

  81. Hi all,
    good that people help each other:)

    I am going to try to get my phone updated as soon as i meet some of the few of my friends that use windows… I hope to update the plugin soon after, if there is a fix. I am thinking maybe there is a reason that Nokia have not made one themselves;)

    Happy syncing!

  82. Hi your isync is great I have macbook pro leopard and 6500 slide , but what do I do with media transfer as when I dwload it says my phone is not supported.

    Comment by hugo — February 14, 2008 @ 9:35

  83. I just use bluetooth file exchange for that. It detects and set up pairing with your phone.

  84. Thanks so much – really simple solution that Nokia and Apple can’t seem to get right.

  85. Hi,

    I’ve just got myself a Nokia 6500 slide from orange, the Black version… I’ve put this plugin in the package folder like Stella said, and also in the folder “PhonePlugins” which is a folder i created in the users library folder. Is this download supposed to be put straight in, or extracted in to another folder with the same name? I’ve tried every way I can think of but the phone is still not working, I can’t even get the thing to pair correctly with the computer half the time! It just hit me that it might be because my phone is the black version, rather than the standard version?

    Any help on the matter would be really appreciated, at the moment I feel like throwing the phone through the wall, it’s totally useless to me without Isync, my life revolves around isync….

    Comment by Graeme — February 15, 2008 @ 18:33

  86. to add to the above, after looking in the back of my phone it has the identical model number as the plugin, therefore I don’t think this is the problem… thanks again

  89. I’m still trying to solve my problem, starting to really annoy me now, especially since you guys seem to be able to get it working fine! Can i just confirm with anyone who has managed to do it… Do I take the contents folder out of the package and put that in to users/…/library/phoneplugins or do i need to put the whole package as it is downloaded in to that folder?

    Thanks

    Graeme

    Comment by Graeme (again!) — February 16, 2008 @ 14:47

  90. Graeme,

    Hmm, this is what I did:
    1. Created a folder named “phoneplugins” in the top Library folder (not the user Library folder but the top one – although it ought to work just as well in the user Library folder)
    2. Downloaded the file “nokia6500s-1phoneplugin.zip”
    3. Unzipped the file, ending up with a folder named “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin”
    4. Put the whole thing in the “phoneplugins” folder that i just created
    5. Activated Bluetooth on my phone
    6. Paired my phone with my computer’s Bluetooth
    7. Ran iSync and added my phone
    8. Began synching without any problems!

    I’ve done the same thing on both an Intel MacBook 10.5.2 and a PowerPC PowerBook 10.4.2 and they both work perfectly.

    Maybe you could try creating the phoneplugins folder in the top Library folder instead of the user Library folder?

    Did you pair your phone’s and computer’s Bluetooth connections before running iSync?

    Good luck!

    Comment by Dan — February 17, 2008 @ 23:35

  91. Hi,
    Just as happened to Victor, it worked a charm, made the connection, but only synced the calendar, not the contacts to address book.

    I’m on a MacBook 2GHz intel core duo, OS 10.4.11, iSync 2.4.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated! You da MAN!

  93. I have a nokia 6500 slide and I had the same problem regarding the sync of the Contacts with iSync. The agenda is sychronising well with iSync so I keep doing the synchronisation of the agenda only with iSync. To manage the contacts and more I found a useful piece of software (around 34 Euros) :

    http://www.novamedia.de/e_pages/e_produkte_mac_fl.html

    There are two “styles” of synchronisation with this software, I don’t use the synch manager which is unstable. I keep my contacts updated on the phone itself, then copy this to my computer using fonelink, so I am able to read them on my sreen instead of each time taking my phone. After it is always possible to copy the vcards from Fonelink to the Apple address book.

    This is not a prefect solution, but it works…

    I hope this will help other users.

  96. When i follow the instructions and used the plugin “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin” in ../library/phoneplugins and start iSync i get connection and all seems to sync well except that i get 2/3 of the way through and it hangs. i then tried to uncheck contacts and sync just my calender and it does the same thing 2/3 of the way through. I don’t get it! Any suggestions?

  97. Hi I have the Nokia 6500 Classic.

    I discovered an application inside the XCode 3 tools called “iSync Plugin Maker”. I managed to make plugin for the Nokia. The app did most of the work itself, communicating with the phoen. The longest task was to make the icon.

    Here it is:

    But use at your own risk!

    Comment by Giacomo — March 6, 2008 @ 19:53

  99. Oh, sorry, I forgot to precise it’s for iSync 3.0 Leopard.

    Comment by dksp — March 8, 2008 @ 15:36

  100. Worked beautifully after several different tries. What worked for me was to create a folder called phoneplugins in user/…/library. I first tried to put the same folder in Library on the first level but that did not work for me. Using Mac Book Pro 2.4 & Leopard.

    Thanks a ton. I got the 6500 as free upgrade from Orange but was ready to put it the drawer and go back to my N70 when I saw that the phone did not work with isync.

  101. i’m having the same problems as Roman said but haven’t seen an answer as yet

    the sync worked great first time for isync 3.0 with 6500c leopard – but now everytime i try and sync, it stops at card 562 of 719 in addresses

    any suggestions?

  103. Thanks for this plugin, Svein
    It seems to be working on my new 6500s except that it stops syncing my contacts when it gets to 237 out of 282
    Am using iSync 2.4 (501.2) on OSX 10.4.11

    I notice someone else (Roman) had had a similar problem where it stopped syncing at 182 contacts
    Just wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to fix this because I have made changes to contacts on both address book on my mac and on the phone.

    The calendars seem to sync perfectly – much better than on my old Nokia 6230 which seemed to randomly loose entries from time to time

    Thanks

    Comment by Pepins — March 18, 2008 @ 9:44

  112. shl: I thought about that, too. How would I figure out which entry exactly it is? The phone only displays “entry 178/300″ but doesn’t indicate what name or number it really is.

    Any help much appreciated!

    Comment by Fritz Brause — March 19, 2008 @ 20:17

  113. same problem occured here. I could smoothly sync my 6500 slide a couple of times. then all of a sudden I could not sync Contacts any longer: it always stopped at 115/392. also synching the Calendar started to be a problem at the same time: now it wants to sync the all daylong data on iCal to 13 to 13 hours…

    I use leopard and only a few days ago I was asked to download my first Software Update package, what I did – I suspect the new bug hides there somewhere, but do not really have a clue. (now on OS 10.5.2)

    Comment by Primo — March 24, 2008 @ 22:27

  114. Hi, I got the same issue. My 6500 Slide was working like a dream and then today, all of a sudden, it’s hanging both when I sync my Contacts & my iCal. I really don’t know why this is. Also, for some reason it now wants to sync my entire address book and all the calendar entries, which it didn’t do before.

    I’m on Leopard 10.5.2 and iSync 3.0

    Bizarre as it was working so well…. HEEEELP!

  116. Rightt…. I have just paid for a plug in from another site and am still getting the same syncing issues. I deleted all paired devices in iSync and Bluetooth before installing and deleted Slh’s plugin What does this tell us? Have we changed any settings on our slides?

  118. hi shl

    just did, what you suggested: “reset device” – and it worked. just doing that sync my Nokia correctly.

  120. Primo, what do you mean by “reset device”? I have tried absolutely everything, deleting all the devices numerous times and even deleting and re-installing iSync.

    Along the way I did a ‘restore factory settings’ on my 6500 slide and still no joy. Is this what you mean? I have been spending literally hours on this now and am baffled.

  123. I’ve tried following the above instructions to the letter at least ten times now or more but I still can’t get my phone to sych up with ical on my macbook pro running leopard.

    The weird thing is that my phone does synch with the imac running leopard at work.

    I’ve been trying to solve this now for months. PLease help me…

    Comment by melly — March 26, 2008 @ 12:42

  124. Dazza:

    I opened iSync, activated the Nokia 6500 slide by clicking on it’s icon in iSync.
    Then I chose “reset device” under the menu “devices” (at least that’s what I think it is called, since I use the German version: There, the second menu is “Geräte” (according to the Apple Support page it should equal “Devices”); then “Gerät zurücksetzen” (= reset device).

    That did the job for me so far (knock on wood). I try again…

    Right now, I just did a normal sync to make sure: it worked.

    Comment by Primo — March 26, 2008 @ 18:40

  125. A little more detail on the symptoms I’m getting…

    I’m using a Macbook Pro (Intel based) running Leopard. The initial sync appears to work fine – there an no error messages. All my contacts appear on the phone but none of the iCal entries are there. During the sync it claims iCal entries are being sent – but they’re not there in the calendar.

    On subsequent syncs it dies when the phone is trying to send contacts back to the Mac. I have some 400 contacts and it dies around contact 117. The only solution to this is to delete the phones contact database and start the initial sync again.

    I’ve tried re-installing the plug-in in a bunch of different locations but this has no impact on the symptoms I’m getting.

    Any suggestions?

    Comment by Gabriel — March 26, 2008 @ 22:13

  126. We had the same problem — created a new folder called phoneplugins in /lbrary then hit iSync. Nothing happened.

    But then we double-checked the phone. The Slide has an option to “hide” the Bluetooth signal. Once the signal was unhidden, the connection and the sync worked perfectly.

    Comment by Moonbeam — March 26, 2008 @ 23:39

  127. Really moonbeam? Where’s the hide option? Surely if it starts (I have the same problem as you) then it has found the phone? I haven’t changed a single setting on my phone since it started syncing and this hanging problem has only risen in the last day.

    Comment by Dazza — March 27, 2008 @ 1:33

There is a second problem: if a create a new contact on the mobile phone, it wont be synchronised to the Mac? Does somebody have the same problem?

    Comment by emuffinman — April 6, 2008 @ 12:01

  136. Still no joy – the phone is still hanging and won’t sync up. I deleted the plugin, deleted my phone form Bluetooth devices, reset my iSync history, downloaded and re-installed the plugin and started again from scratch. I’m REALLY pissed off now. at one point, it even deleted 93 contacts from my address book on my Mac, I could cry! When I bluetoothed an individual contact that had been deleted from my 6500slide to my Mac, it said that the .vcf file wasn’t supported.

    Why is this plugin now not working? It worked fine for the first few times. I’m on Leopard 10.5.2 and iSync 3.0

    Anyone found a cure for this ‘hanging’ problem yet?

    PS There is another guy who has also written a script and his doesn’t work either! I paid for it and have been in touch with him and he very kindly refunded my money. He’s baffled and so am I!!

    Svein??!!?

    Please if anyone is able to help me fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated. :)

    Comment by Grant — April 8, 2008 @ 9:49

  141. This plug in worked for me (new 6500s & Leopard 10.5.2) which is great – thanks! (I created the new library folder for phoneplugins as suggested)

    I have one issue, though – it does not seem to respect Address Book groups – I set it for sync only with a (new, empty) sublist but it has done a full sync with the main list (the sublist remains empty). It did move the correct 91 contacts from phone to mac on first sync (there was the expected box but sadly I failed to check details) but now it has moved them subsequent syncs succeed although the list remains stubbornly empty!

    New contacts are moved OK to the phone.

    Comment by Will — April 13, 2008 @ 11:46

  142. A quick followup and a suggestion for Dazza/Will. I managed to get the sync working – to a fashion – by:
    1) removing the device from iSync
    2) going into the Contacts menu on the phone and selecting the “Delete All” option that’s buried in there
    3) adding the device back into iSync, and
    4) using the option to overwrite data in the phone.

    I’ve done this a couple of times now and it seems to work. If the phone fails to load Contacts in the first Sync it seems that neither Phone nor PC recognizes that they’re missing subsequently.

    However – not all of my Contacts Sync. Of 330 Contacts only 285 Sync first time. There’s nothing wrong with the Contacts that don’t Sync first time. If I move them to another group on my address book, Sync, and then move them back to my “Phone” group and sync again – “preso” they appear.

    I’m wondering if there’s some sort of buffer limit on the Contacts transfer buffer size? Or is there a timeout that I’m inadvertently triggering on first Sync?

    Like Dazza – I still get a freeze problem periodically where it dies trying to sync Contact 218 (or thereabouts) but the above fix seems to work.

    Comment by Gabriel — April 14, 2008 @ 1:17

  143. Gabrie, cheers for the advice mate.

    I can’t tell you how many times I’ve removed my device from the Sync AND Bluetooth menues, selected ‘delete all’ and started again – even deleting and reinstalling Svein’s plugin and iSync, to no avail. At the moment, I am able to sync my calender (thank God!) but not my address book.

    At one stage during the syncing, it managed to delete 93 entries from my address book, so I now only have them on my phone and I don’t know which ones they are! So I can only do a phone overwrites computer sync or sync al and definitely NOT the other way round as these will be gone forever!

    I’m gutted as I now have to writ new contacts on the phone and my Mac every time now, due to this issue. I really must find a way round this hanging problem as I now have nearly 100 contacts missing on my Mac.

    Gutted.

  147. Works perfectly.
    Like someone else said, you need to create a folder in libray called phoneplugins. I created this under the user library not the root one.

    Comment by Chris83 — April 16, 2008 @ 20:42

  148. Yes, I have to agree with Dazza – there is definitely a bug in this somewhere. I suspect it may be related to the number of contacts in my database. When I run tests syncing a handful of contacts (say 50) it seems to work fine, Take it up to 200 and it starts to fail. On first sync I get the message:

    • The phone could not store some of your contacts. The following contacts will not be synchronized: Adam Blogs, Dario, Jeff Bloggs, Richard Blogs, David Blogs, and 5 more.

    Yet, if I remove them from the names that failed to sync from the Address Book group I’m syncing with – and then add them back in – they appear on the phone OK.

    Then, however, on subsequent syncs it hangs when the phone is sending contacts back to the Mac. Always around Contact number 200. This is the point of no return and I’m stuck with wiping the entire contacts database on the phone and starting all over again – as I described above.

    Is anybody out there having any success with this – syncing more than say 150 contacts? If so, what phone software and OS software versions are you running with?

  149. Gabriel,

    weird mate… Today I synced my iCal to the slide, which works fine, thankfully and then I thought I’d try to sync the contacts again, which I haven’t tried in a while since all this hanging nonsense started and I spent hours trying to resolve it. Well…. low and behold, it went up to 100% and synced!!

    Great you might think, but I checked my Address Book on the Mac and the missing contacts have not been added from the phone. Gutted. Now I really don’t have a clue what’s going on.

    Comment by Dazza — April 17, 2008 @ 19:21

  150. EDIT:

    Just tried a sync again and now it’s hanging on 168 of 631… Fantastic.

    I have a 6500S Nokia phone model with a V 06.60 firmware. I’ve put the 6500S plugin, into PhonePlugins folder (after creating it) and am having a few troubles.

    The following error appears whenever I try to sync:
    [6500s-1] There was an error getting data from the phone. The synchronization may have been cancelled on the phone.

    Help me please !

  168. For those having trouble! I had lots trouble at first then another site showed me what to do. The key is placing the plugin in the right place.
    Go to Applications/isync right click and select “show package contents”
    then Contents/Plugins/ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice/Contents/Plugins/
    put the Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin you downloaded from this site in there!
    Then close everything up, restart, go to isync, click on add device, and your Nokia slide will appear. Double click on the image of the nokia 6500 and you phone is ready to sync.
    BTW i synced 545 contacts without any stoppages or delays.
    Many thanks to the person who created this plugin, it fills an important gap. cheers.

  172. Hi all, thanks for the info. I have synchronized the tf agenda but The calendar does not synchronize. The synchronization starts, but gets blocked in the middle of the event transfers and fails after a while. Any help would be most welcome.

    Comment by jq — September 8, 2008 @ 15:34

  173. Hi all again. After some trials I have been able to synchronize without problems by ersing first all the calendar events in the mobile. It seems that what was causing the problems was the update of old events, but when the calendar was empty isync reproduced the complete iCal definition on the Mac without problems and a couple of updates of new events in iCal where transferred correctly to the mobile in succeeding synchronizations. This works if you keep the iCal as the only entry point for event definition. I have not tested if updates on the mobile are correctly transferred to iSync, because I do not do it.

    Comment by jq — September 9, 2008 @ 11:59

  174. Soory my english is so poor…

    In english-google :

    “‘I’ve completely solved the problem:

    1 install the plugin (http://www.disappearhere.com/?p=163)
    in a folder “PhonePlugins” in the Library of your mac
    (not the user library), create this folder if needed. The
    plugin has an icon shaped Légo and its name is
    “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin”

    Make 2 “set up a Bluetooth device.” This function
    plugin detects and uses to determine the functions (contact and calendar)
    compatible with your phone.

    3 launch iSync and “Add Device”

    And it works … Contacts AND Calendar

    Many people have failed because it had already
    “configured aircraft bluetooth”, it installed on the plugin
    then … the error is there: Setting a bluetooth
    NEED Plugin.

    We could say that this is a plugin for the “configuration”
    and not a plugin for iSync …

    Dragon

    j’ai résolu complètement le problème :

    1 installer le plugin (http://www.disappearhere.com/?p=163) dans un dossier “PhonePlugins” dans la Bibliothèque de l’ordi (pas celle de l’utulisateur), créer ce dossier si besoin. Le plugin a une icone en forme de Légo et son non est “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin”

    2 Faire “configurer un appareil bluetooth”. Cette fonction détecte le plugin et l’utilise pour déterminer les fonctions compatibles avec le tel.

    3 lancer iSync et “Ajouter un appareil”

    Et la ça marche… Génial

    De nombreuses personnes ont échoué car elle avait déja “configuré un appareil bluetooth”, il on installé le plugin ensuite… l’erreur est là : la Configuration bluetooth a BESOIN du Plugin.

    On pourrait dire que c’est un plugin pour la “configuration” et non un plugin pour iSync…

  175. Hi all! Thanks for what I guess is a great pugin.
    Only problem though is that about halfway through the sync, I get an error message stating: “There was an error getting data from the phone. The synchronization may have been cancelled on the phone.” It happens when iSync is recieveing data.
    This happens only when I sync the contacts or contacts and calendar togheter. If i try to only sync the calendar, it works just fine.

    I have about 300 contacts on my phone and running firmware 08.30.

    My mac is a MacBook Pro running 10.5.4.

  178. Hi all,

    I’m experiencing some problems too when I’m trying to upload my contacts.
    I have the following answer “Une erreur est survenue lors de l’obtention des données du téléphone. Il est possible que la synchronisation ait été annulée sur ce dernier.
    La synchronisation de l’appareil a échoué”
    It says that the problem occurs because the phone and the computer didn’t sychronise correctly.
    When I’m starting downloading my contacts it started to download the contact 1 from 99 and 30 seconds after I have the error message above.

    Not sure that I’m clear in explaining my problem I had a look to the previous comment but I didn’t find anything.

    I hope that you could help me.

    cheers.

    Comment by Loic — October 7, 2008 @ 13:09

  179. Fantastic. It took me a while to find the folder I needed to be in. I didn’t realise that searches don’t return results for folders inside package contents (DUH!). Just in case anyone is as stupid as me, find the iSync program file, and then CTRL click and open package contents and then keep double clicking plugins until you get to a folder with a bunch of files named XXXX.phoneplugin and then create the folder and copy the contents folder across into this.

    GREAT WORK and thanks for yet again filling in for the holes left by Nokia and Apple.

    Comment by c7 — October 29, 2008 @ 11:55

  187. Pour préciser : mac de Dragon (pour qui ça marche) MacBook 10.4.11

    J’ai remarqué que lors de la première installation il y avait seulement la synchronisation des contacts qui était disponible mais j’ai pas testé…

    ensuite “après ma procédure”, tout marche…

    Patricia, vérifie que isync “propose” la synchronisation du calendrier… si tel n’est pas le cas ça veut dire que le plug n’est pas reconnu.

    Des fois quand on crée une procédure on oublie d’indiquer ce qui nous semble évident… et quand on applique une procédure on a tendance à ‘oublier’ une étape qui ne nous semble pas importante… Une petite faute de frappe dans le nom du dossier ‘phoneplugins’

    Ça marche pour c7, pour Daniel

    Peut-être renommer le téléphone sur le téléphone puis refaire toute la procédure avec attention…

  190. At Last. After months and weeks and today, hours, I got the Nokia icon to appear on iSync. (After I created Phoneplugins folder for Users/library…and dragged Nokia6500s-1 there.) Also, taking advice from above poster, made sure iSync was off.

    Also went into iSync and created a Nokia6500-1 folder in packages contents where alll the other compatible phones contents are.

    Then the Contacts synced but not the Calendar.

    Deleted everything on the mobile phone calendar/organiser.

    Then I checked that Bluetooth was discoverable on the iBookG4 10.4.11. Do this even if you’re getting a message saying they are connected.

    Then back to iSync to uncheck Contacts and only sync Calendar. Did a reset. And suddenly EVERYTHING in my iBook calendar appeared on the phone.

    Magic. Thanks.

  192. Uh oh! Just tried to update Nokia calendar from iCal. It’s gone in the reverse direction and wiped iCal.

    Tried again. Message on Nokia – “Data not transferable. Check data connection.”

    But Bluetooth on both Make and phone. Both discoverable.

    I cleared all calendar notes on phone first.

    Now nothing.

    New contacts on iBook Address book not syncing.

    Alert on Mac:
    “Wednesday, 12 November 2008 18:05
    [Nokkia] There was an error getting data from the phone. The synchronization may have been cancelled on the phone.
    Device synchronization failed”

    Why has the problem returned?

    Also problems regarding compatibility with JVC and Sony camcorders, even though new Sony uses Minidv. Rapidly going off Apple. Looks beautiful but I’d never recommend it now.

  196. 6500C worked great, however, the download (Nokia-6131.phoneplugin) needed to be put in the folder /applications/isync.app/Contents/Plugins/ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice/Contents/Plugins/
    referenced on the james-lloyd.com site NOT ~/library/phoneplugins as instructed herein. However, once that was done everything worked great!! the 1st sync added about 400 contacts (80% change) to the phone. All good!

    Comment by Steve — November 29, 2008 @ 6:05

  197. 6500s does not sync contacts, it stoppes at e.g. 481/560 or smg like that, asking to check data connection. Wierdly, it worked for the first time, but it is not reliable, now I could only make it work by deleting my address book and clean-sync the phone (or maybe 1-way syn would work either.)

    Calendar syncing works fine.

    Any idea to make BOTH work, both ways?

    thx very much

    Comment by Gergő — December 2, 2008 @ 0:16

  198. Downloaded the plugin in January and it worked fine both with Tiger and Leopard. Then my Nokia developed a fault and was sent back to Nokia for repair. They have loaded in updated software which has now resulted in all the symptoms of the failed iSyncs. It hangs when loading contacts, but allows me to update iCal and Address book separately!
    I have tried all the different solutions here and none have worked.
    The only way I managed to do it was to reset the Sync history, and both sync. However, it isn’t an ideal solution.
    I don’t think the plug in is the problem, I think Nokia’s updated software may be to blame.
    The phone says its software is:
    V08.30
    03-07-08
    RM-240

    My Mac is a 2.16 MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.5.5

    Hope this adds something

  218. Didn’t work at first; This is how I fixed it:

    go to hd > applications > Isync (richtclick: show package content) > content > plugins > content > plugins.

    -paste the folder here (Nokia-6500s-1.phoneplugin) amongst all the other phone plugins.

    -in all the other nokia plugin folders, you’ll find a file in the content folder called: version.plist copy this file into yours.

    this did the trick, I “moved” to mac last week, and the lack of sync usage was the last hurdle holding me back, thanks a lot SHL!

  225. Hi,

    after upgrading to snow leopard I found out that the plug-in couldn’t be reinstalled with isync. I therefore created a version copied from snow leopard’s 6103 plug-in and changed it similarly to what you did. It seems to work. I can provide the tar.

    Best Regards
    Peter

  226. Hi Peter,

    I would be very grateful if you could provide a link to your new plug in. I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard and my 6500 Slide will no longer sync (it does all contacts but conks out on the 130th calendar entry every time).

    Cheers,
    Scott

  231. Peter, you are a legend. It’s working fine. Thanks very much!

    I still can’t believe that Apple and Nokia can’t sort this out between them though!

  233. Worked great! New to Mac but had my 6500 for more than a year. Thanks for making the Windows > Mac transition easier :)

  234. Still syncing perfectly but spotted one small bug: spaces in company names show up as hyphens on my phone. Doesn’t really matter but thought I’d let you know. Cheers again, Scott

  235. Thank you very much, it works! But I had to put in in the Packagecontent of iSync. (Contents/PlugIns/Applephoneconduit.syndevice/Contents/PlugIns)

    Soory my english is so poor…

    In english-google :

    “‘I’ve completely solved the problem:

    1 install the plugin (http://www.disappearhere.com/?p=163)
    in a folder “PhonePlugins” in the Library of your mac
    (not the user library), create this folder if needed. The
    plugin has an icon shaped Légo and its name is
    “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin”

    Make 2 “set up a Bluetooth device.” This function
    plugin detects and uses to determine the functions (contact and calendar)
    compatible with your phone.

    3 launch iSync and “Add Device”

    And it works … Contacts AND Calendar

    Many people have failed because it had already
    “configured aircraft bluetooth”, it installed on the plugin
    then … the error is there: Setting a bluetooth
    NEED Plugin.

    We could say that this is a plugin for the “configuration”
    and not a plugin for iSync …

    Dragon

    j’ai résolu complètement le problème :

    1 installer le plugin (http://www.disappearhere.com/?p=163) dans un dossier “PhonePlugins” dans la Bibliothèque de l’ordi (pas celle de l’utulisateur), créer ce dossier si besoin. Le plugin a une icone en forme de Légo et son non est “Nokia6500s-1.phoneplugin”

    2 Faire “configurer un appareil bluetooth”. Cette fonction détecte le plugin et l’utilise pour déterminer les fonctions compatibles avec le tel.

    3 lancer iSync et “Ajouter un appareil”

    Et la ça marche… Génial

    De nombreuses personnes ont échoué car elle avait déja “configuré un appareil bluetooth”, il on installé le plugin ensuite… l’erreur est là : la Configuration bluetooth a BESOIN du Plugin.

    On pourrait dire que c’est un plugin pour la “configuration” et non un plugin pour iSync…

  242. Aaaarrrrggghhh!

    It’s stopped working. Just synced and it tried to do all contacts for some reason (not just updates), got to 101 of 260 and conked out!

    Anyone got any idea why this might have happened? My OS is bang up to date 10.6.2.

    I have the plugin in both my library and the top level one but it appears that the one in my library is the one beng used as there is also a folder there which updates every time I sync.

    Cheers,
    Scott

  243. Thanks! Works fine with me, first time got an error, run it one more time and sync worked :)

    Comment by Elle — March 11, 2010 @ 11:26

  244. Got it to run on 10.6.2 by going to a third location

    You have to put it in

    iSync.app/Contents/Plugins/ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice/Contents/Plugins

    go to Applications and ‘right click’ in the iSync icon to get to Contents>plugins etc

    And be in Administrator mode to put it in.

    Many thanks

  245. Does anyone know of the fix for iSync hanging midway through synchronization? I have tried pretty much all the fixes suggested in the listed posts but no luck. Thanks

    Comment by Harry — April 13, 2010 @ 0:34

  246. My Calendar synced fine but the address book always dies before the end. I have trimmed it and trimmed it thinking it is a the size that is the issue but each time the error comes that this list of names plus x others will not be synced – this seems to be a plug in issue as this does not happen with my 6230 only my 6500s.
    Any ideas/fixes yet? It seems to be the non-numeric data that is creating replica names in the sync that seems to be causing it to fall over. ie. more than one entry with same name but one has all the data and the other 1 or more has part of it.

    In a last ditch attempt I am trying to use my SIM to copy the names/addresses from one phone to the other but don’t know how that will go…

  247. Thanks Chris McD,
    Your solution worked. I copied the snow leopard patch into the apps contents (path you mentioned) and I was able to sync contacts onto the nokia 6500 slide.

    cheers
