Get step-by-step instructions on pairing your Nokia device and Mac over Bluetooth.

Make the most of your Mac with iSync

Get organized with iSync. If you've got a compatible Nokia phone and a Mac, iSync helps you synchronize your data. Take the hassle out of managing data across devices by downloading changes and updating your phone or Mac when required.

Calendar
Ever get tired of trying to keep on top of your schedule? iSync makes it easy by ensuring that the meetings and appointments you enter into your Nokia mobile phone calendar are also transferred to iCal, Apple's handy desktop calendar. Make sure you never miss another important date by transferring data to and from your Mac as you need it.

Contacts
Keep your contacts up-to-date by transferring contact information to and from your Mac, including phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, web addresses, and best of all, photos of your friends, family, and colleagues.


Setting up iSync
All Nokia devices supported by iSync can connect to your Mac through Bluetooth. However, selected Nokia device models can also be synchronized through a USB cable in addition to using Bluetooth. If iSync supports both Bluetooth and USB connections to your Nokia device, you can choose whichever connection method you prefer for the initial setup.

(Note:the data connection you choose will be the default connection method between your Nokia device and iSync on your Mac. If you wish to change it in the future, you will need to remove your Nokia device from iSync and run this set up again, using the new connection method)

With Bluetooth 
Before you set up iSync, make sure that your Nokia device and your Mac are paired over Bluetooth.

Proceed to step 1 if you have already paired your Nokia device with your Mac.

With USB
If iSync supports synchronization via USB cable with your Nokia device, you may connect your Nokia device to your Mac via USB cable.

Proceed to step 1 if you have already connected your Nokia device and Mac with a USB cable.

   1.  Launch the iSync application on your Mac. Go to Finder Menu > Go > Applications > iSync.


   2. From the iSync menu, select add device, then chose your Nokia device from the list.



  3.  Your Nokia device will be added to the iSync window. You may now sync your calendar and         contact info.



Pairing your Nokia device with your Mac

To pair your Nokia device with your Mac over Bluetooth, make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your Mac.

You will also need to turn on Bluetooth on your Nokia device and make sure that your Nokia device is sharing data.

1.  Check the Bluetooth settings on your Nokia device. The settings can usually be located under      Connect, Tools or Settings, depending on your Nokia device.*




2.  Turn Bluetooth On.

3.  Make sure your Nokia device is visible. If it is hidden, change it to Shown to all.



4.  On your Mac choose Set up Bluetooth Device from the Bluetooth item on the menu bar. If you do not see a Bluetooth item on the menu bar, go to System Preferences > Bluetooth > Devices and click Set Up New Device.

5.  The Bluetooth Setup Assistant window will open. Click Continue and select mobile phone as device type.





6.  Your Mac will begin searching for mobile phones. When you see your Nokia device's name on       the list, select it and click Continue. Your Mac will now gather information about the Nokia       device you selected. When it has completed, click Continue.





7. You will then see a dialog with a passkey on it. Your Nokia device should now ask for a passkey      to connect to your Mac. Enter the passkey displayed on your Mac and accept the connection      requests from your Nokia device.



    

(Note: If you do not want your Nokia device to ask your permission to accept connections from your Mac each time you synchronize with iSync, you will need to change the Bluetooth settings on your Nokia device. You can either change this setting manually, or your Nokia device may ask if you would like to do this when you connect. To change it manually, find your Mac in the paired device list on your Nokia device, select your Mac from the list, and set your Mac as authorized to connect to your Nokia device.*)

 

8.  Select the services you want to use with your device by checking the boxes (optional, though       if you are using your Nokia as a modem,you will nned to check Access the internet... )If you       are using iSync or Nokia Multimedia Transfer, you have now finished pairing your Nokia       device and Mac and may press Continue. You should see a confirmation message displayed       on your Mac.
