[MeeGo Harmattan] [How to] Sync your N9 with ovi suite !

Simple ! Ovi Suite 3.0.0.290 will recognise and sync with the N9. It works.

You can then upgrade to the current Ovi Suite and it will continue to work – but only if you have created the sync under the 3.0.0.290 version.

Steps:

- When you are installing 3.0.0.290, turn off internet connections otherwise Ovi Suite will automatically upgrade before installing

- Once installed, turn off auto-update software (for now) and plug your handset in. It will be recognised, install drivers, and say it is ready

- Confirm your sync settings, and press sync.

- You can then go back online and agree to update your Ovi Suite to the current release.

OSX N900 iSync plugin 1.1 released

OSX N900 iSync plugin enables the synchronisation of contact, calendar and task information between the N900 and any computer running OS X 10.5 or greater.

The current outstanding issue is that events created on the N900 with an alarm will not appear on the Mac, this is due to an issue with the N900, not the plugin. The plugin currently only works over a bluetooth connection, and you will need to install the "Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking" package on your N900 so iSync can find it.

This new release adds the ability to sync over a USB connection, and fixes a bug with the handling of custom labels. Please see the release notes/changelog for full details.
