Since 2008 I have had a new phone-LG KU990 Viewty. It is all great, but there is one thing… due to the lack of SyncML protocol you can’t sync it with your Mac. But there is a way how to do this partially.
How to simply copy your mac contacts to your phone:
- Open Address Book,
- Use CMD-A to select all the entries in your Address Book,
- Navigate to “File” -> “Export” -> “Export vCard…”,
- When prompted save the vCard.
Send file through bluetooth:
- Click the Bluetooth icon in the Menu Bar and navigate to “Browse Device”,
- Select your phone name from the list and click “Browse”,
- Tap “Yes” on the Viewty to accept the incoming connection request,
- On your Mac, click the “Send…” button in Bluetooth File Exchange,
- Locate the vCards file that you saved earlier, and click “Send”,
- Once the transfer has completed, the Viewty should prompt you to “Restore Contact backup file”, tap “Yes”.
