razrV3c, Alltel version & isync problem

I recently purchased the razrV3c from Alltel & am trying to backup my contacts with isync. Alltel does not offer at this time any solution ,from what little info I get here locally or via their web site or even motorola for that matter. Moto doesn't even list Alltel as a vendor.

Apple claims to support this phone with their isync program provided you are running OSX.4.3 & isync 2.1 . I have posted on isync support page my situation , without success.

My computer see's the phone via bluetooth just fine . I can use it as a modem but ,thats all. Data backup options are not available.

I left Verizon with a bad taste due to the V710.... B.S. !! I'm begining to wunder if I haven't been duped by another cell phone service with yet anot...

An edit to the metaclasses .plist is needed. There is information on how to do this on Howard Forums. Check out the Verizon>Motorola phone thread there. Lots of detailed info on how to do it.

BTW, I have done this previously with my USCC v710 and it worked great, though I use OnSync, a shareware program. However, the V3c probably is better using iSync.

Good luck!

fincher,
thanks for the info . I went to Howard Forums and found just what I needed. After replacing/updating the .plist my phone synced beautifully.
Now I will have to fine tune my address/contacts.

thank you

No problem. You might want to try OnSync as it handles the contacts portion quite well and better than iSync in my opinion.

OnSync is shareware ($10) but the demo version works great except it only transfers contacts 1:1 instead of all at once.
