Guest simon russell Posted December 2, 2002 Report Posted December 2, 2002 Is anybody using the SPV on a mac, I want to use the phone with my G4 PowerBook, I am considering running soft windows on OSX. Does any one know of an easier solution.
Guest Fulkrum Posted December 2, 2002 Report Posted December 2, 2002 As far as we know the only sucessful function on a Mac os is using Zterm to dial up over IR only. Activesync does not have a mac version and the usb modem functionality does not work. I have tested it on Zterm and it works fine but cannot find a script to use remote access.
Guest johnnyW Posted December 3, 2002 Report Posted December 3, 2002 Is it possible to use a Mac for saving MP3s etc on the SD card? i.e. are the Mac/Windows/Smartphone filesystems on SD cards compatible when using a USB card reader?
Guest tiita Posted December 3, 2002 Report Posted December 3, 2002 csd wont probably work you can try by using generic IRDA modem and using the gprs init string +cgdcont=1,"ip","orangeinternet","",0,0 :shock:
Guest Fulkrum Posted December 3, 2002 Report Posted December 3, 2002 csd works fine through zterm. Zterm has its own built in modem script called zmodem. We are currently stripping down that script for use on all platforms (mac 8.6 to jaguar) will be able to answer this on friday at the latest :wink:
Guest JaToAc Posted December 3, 2002 Report Posted December 3, 2002 would be intersting to know if PocketMac will support Smartphone2k2 in the future... everyone interested should post those guys... http://www.pocketmac.net/ cu Jake
Guest Roadster Posted January 16, 2003 Report Posted January 16, 2003 Just a quick note: I'm currently using a mac running os x 10.1.5 and a laptop pc running xp. Bought a SD card and a Multimedia Card and can copy and play mp3 files and other media just as easy from either platform. I plug the cards into my machine via a USB card reader.
Guest cseilern Posted January 17, 2003 Report Posted January 17, 2003 i emailed pocketmac a month back or so and they seemed definitely interested in the whole smartphone 2002 thing. i dont think it is too complicated to make pocket mac work with the spv as the only difference with a pocket pc version is in the executables on the smartphone). the only way to make this happen though is for everyone to email pocketmac and ask them nicely for a mac version (---pleeeaaase!!)
Guest Silverlex02 Posted April 27, 2003 Report Posted April 27, 2003 Is there any program that I could use on my mac to sync my spv with?
Guest colinmunro Posted April 27, 2003 Report Posted April 27, 2003 Hi, this is just a quick post to let you know that I'm working on a Mac OS X application for syncing with Windows CE devices (mainly PocketPCs, and possibly CE 2.0 devices once I've got a USB <-> serial adapter), but I would also be insteresting in supporting Smartphone (and hope to get one myself at some point anyway). You can see a screenshot of it and the "useless screenshot function" I've included at http://www.mice-software.com/blah/celink_s..._screenshot.jpg
Guest Silverlex02 Posted April 27, 2003 Report Posted April 27, 2003 When do you think this will be out?
Guest colinmunro Posted April 27, 2003 Report Posted April 27, 2003 I'm not sure, there's still lots to do like the File System kernel extension to allow it to mount the PocketPC memory as a disk drive, as well as plugins to allow syncing Todo/Calendar/Contacts items, and some testing, but hopefully it won't take too long.
