Wave Samsung S8500 - can import contacts are so easy! took two months ago I attended a campaign by Samsung. There was the new phone "Samsung Wave 5800" to win if I could animate many friends to do with the Wave to many photos. In short, I've found enough people and get the fancy new phone. But that it first began.
I am with art, no spontaneous buyers. I watch, search, compare - it took rather long until I found the Nokia 5800 the perfect phone for me at that time. And now there is this Wave and laughs at me and finally I go to the problem: How do I get my data from Nokia phone to the Samsung phone?
Macuser As I am accustomed to grief, and I therefore have the same time Alex's Windows computer caught. On Windows, I could then download through the Nokia PC Suite all my contacts in Outlook Express. Images, music, etc. are all stored on the PC.
And how will the data come now to the Wave? Fix the GRAVEL software installed by Samsung (graphic way, very appealing!) And the Sync button sought.
Sorry, unfortunately you can GRAVEL only sync with Outlook from 2002, which falls in my path, however. Thunder Bird and Co. are not supported. Of course I was not on and tried around industrious, the data exported in all possible formats, but the thing just did not want * grumble *
Well - I had equipped the MacBook is precisely a new operating system (Snow Leopard) - and sometimes was even now more possible than 3 months ago?
iSync flight fired up and linked with the Nokia. That was, however, not immediately but only after I had downloaded an update for the Xpress Music 5800th Prompt, the data from the Apple Address Book.
My hope was that iSync for the Wave S8500 somewhere a plug-in would. But by no means: (
However GRAVEL (the Samsung program, see above) available for the Mac, so something downloaded and installed. USB cable into it and a small start-up window appeared. There would nonetheless - because GRAVEL the cable connection was a little shaky and is therefore actively decided against it, link to the Wave with the Mac. In return, other windows open regularly annoying * *
says Aunt Google Now what? I searched through various forums, including trying to use my GMail account for it to synchronize the contacts. Upload went fine, but then had only the mail on my new mobile phone, not the phone numbers in the contacts store.
So it was about time for a loud AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
And then I did what I do best: play around aimlessly. And then I had the solution: Why do the phones synchronize via computer, even if they totally PC / Mac going to communicate with each other?
At Nokia, it is possible to send business cards via Bluetooth, which you do so regularly, even if someone wants to send cards to be fast in the memory. The first issue went smoothly from Nokia to the Wave. But sending 303 contacts by hand and after? Urgs.
look: At the Nokia, you can select all contacts. This works as follows:
Contacts -> Options -> Mark -> Mark All Then
found behind all the contacts a little check mark.
order to transfer the data simply Options -> Send As Card - click> select delete and - -> Via Bluetooth tatata! - The data will magically via blue tooth phone again.
Can it really be that simple? Yes! And Samsung should make
his promise, the beginning of 2011 a slick new to throw to-use program for the Mac on the market, I watch a closer look, and will possibly report on it!
