An Engineer from Germany Successfully Deploys SyncMate
One of our first SyncMate’s beta testers Björn König tells us how he uses SyncMate and what for
industry: personal computer usage
Personal Background: In the past Björn König has studied media technologies. Right now Björn is working as an engineer for one of Germany’s biggest broadcast companies.
Victoria Veligodsky: What challenges made you search for this kind of software?
Björn König: I was in search for a software syncing Apple’s Address Book and iCal with my WM6 mobile phone (Asus P750). There are not many solutions available and SyncMate was and is free to use. That was a huge plus. So I gave it a try.
Victoria Veligodsky: How did get to know about SyncMate by Eltima Software?
Björn König: After searching the Internet for quite a while I came across several hints in forums and webpages. I took some time until I found your SyncMate. I’m not sure but I think I also read about SyncMate in my favorite computer magazine.
Victoria Veligodsky: Did you try other products for the same task before choosing SyncMate? Why did you prefer our product?
Björn König: Yes, I have tried several other methods of syncing my mobile phone. One synchronization tool I found did not work out for me. It was not able to exchange data with my Mac. Also Active Sync for Windows caused more trouble than actually doing its job. So I tried some beta versions and release candidates of SyncMate and it worked perfectly for me.
Victoria Veligodsky: Please, describe how you are using our product now.
Björn König: Right now I only use the basic features for syncing the calendar and Address Book. But as a beta tester I also checked out the expert functions which are pretty cool, too. They save some time exchanging data needed on my mobile phone. I also like SyncMate’s ability to synchronize notes and share Internet.
Victoria Veligodsky: How did you benefit from using SyncMate?
Björn König: Eltima’s SyncMate is an easy to use tool that gives me the capability to sync my calendar and address data between a Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 device and an Apple Mac OS X 10.5 computer, a feature that Apple probably will never implement.
Puedo utilizar sincmate con una blackberry 8100 pearl? Como? Lo he provado y no hace nada… el Mac me la detecta pero no hace nada!!! Que puedo hacer?
@ Oriol -
I am sorry to say this, but SyncMate does not support Blackberry devices.
ok. thanks Vic. Sorry , but do you know what software I can use?
@ Oriol –
I am sorry SyncMate cannot help you. However, I am not sure if I am eligible to advise you any software titles.
Hello there !
I got an ASUS p750 with WM 6.1 and tried everything that was mentioned on the eltimate HP. But I dont get the syncmate to work with my phone.
I am working on this now several weeks but I cant find a solution.
I got a new MacBook with leopard (OS X 10.5.6) but when i connect my Asus Phone the driver won´t be installed . I installed it by my selfe, but I dont get a connection with the mac.
Maybe you could help me or tell me where to find a manual how EXACTLY install it an P750 with Leopard ?
Many thanks
@ Stefan –
I hope this article will help you solve the problem: http://wiki.eltima.com/knowledge-base/syncmate/connection-problems.html
If this doesn’t help, please, address your question to our support team (support@eltima.com) and send us your Action log. To find SyncMate Action log please follow: Plugins -> Other Plugins -> Action log
Thank you very much for the fast response, but i already tried those things. The Problem is, that I dont see some of the things that are suggested there for example the firewall settings under Leopard seem to be completely different. Further more i cannot enable “Advanced network functionality” because I cannot find this option on my ASUS P750.
I will send the log file in a few hours.
BEST REGARDS !
@ Stefan –
Our support team is waiting for your log. They will be glad to help you solve the issue.
Hello !
I sent the log on Friday, 13th. I am sorry but I dont get any log from syncmate so I sent a system log from my MacBook along with some other important facts.
Again I have to say THANK YOU for your response and your commitment !
I love this solution. I havn’t tested my asus P525 with this software but this sounds promising. I’m here in the Philippines and like what Björn König encountered, it is also my dilemma.. syncing PPC with Mac OS X.
