Have you ever gotten it to sync your ical? i used some differrent code from another site in my MetaClasses file and it gives me the option to sync the calendar... but it fails. The addressbook seems to sync either way though. Any ideas?

Anyone know how I can get this working in iSync 1.5 (10.3.9)?

Many thanks. That's worked a treat!

YO TENGO UN V710 CDMA Y TIENE DESABILITADO EL BLUETOOTH PORQUE NO PUEDO PASAR FOTOS Y MUSICA, USO EL BLUETOOTH QUE DE LA PCS Y NO HACE NADA, ENTONCE MI PREGUNTA ES NO EXITE UN PROGRAMA PARA PONER EL BLUETOOTH A FUNCIONAR HE BUSCADO EN TODA LA PAGINA Y NO APARECE NADA Y A PARTE DE ESO SEGUN LEI EN UNA PAGINA iSYNC ES LO UNICO

Just wanted to say this worked with the KRZR from US Cellular.

I also read in the release notes that Leopard's iSync will support KRZR. Hopefully this will add calendar support.

Thanks for the work,
MIchael

Just wanted to thank you for that MetaClasses.plist file (and the nice .tiff). It worked better than other snippets that I'd found on HowardForums. Basically, the contacts names would be numbers.

I am also using 10.3.9 (iSync 1.5)
Any expert here got that setup working?

thanks in advance

Fantastik. As a new mac convert that fix was as easy as 1 2 3.

Thanks for this! For the record, it DOES work with the Verizon K1m phone, although it only syncs the address book and not the calendar.

brilliant!!

syncs my address book flawlessly.

if anyone can figure out how to get sync calendar too, please share! i have tried to change
supportsCalendarsSync

to supportsCalendarsSync

but it doesn't seem to want to work.

any other ideas?

big up, it works greaatttt

Yipeee! Many, many thanks!

I wouldn't bother with the iCal sync - it's not so great anyway. I would just wait for iPhone! :))

I tried this with my Cigular KRZRK1 phone and it didn't work. Has anyone had any luck with Cingular KRZR and Mac OSX iSync?

my gf just got the krzr and was disappointed that she couldn't sync her contacts on her mac... thanks for your help, i'll be getting some action... : )

Guys, i'm about to buy a KRZR K1 and i wonder what do you really mean by "it worked".. I mean, can you transfer files from and to the phone? I ask cause I only see mentions about contacts, but nothing about the songs.

Thanks,
Mariano.

Thanks for that. Worked perfectly.

Just as my little contribution, if you would prefer the silver version image:

http://www.simasy.com/MetaClasses.plist.zip

Follow the same instructions.

Just to say this worked great for synchronising contacts with a UK Vodafone Krzr in silver (thanks for the icon).

Anyone have luck getting Motorola Z3 (Rizr) to work w/ iSync?

I guess everyone here who got it working are those using os x 10.4 and up.

I see a few users still using os x 10.3.9 who won't be able to get it sync at all. Am I wrong??

Who can help me with .httpaccess ?
where i can fined full information about .httpaccess file syntaxis?

Have you found a way of doing the new Motorola z3?

If not, is it easy to edit the the "metaclasses" plist?

Thanks a bunch! Works like magic!

That worked for me too, Using the krzr on the O2 network in Ireland, no problems, well done you. Many thanks!

Excellent!!! Thanks a ton! Worked great on macos tiger, cingular for contacts.

The plugin for the Z3 can be found here

Contacts work, but no iCal sync

I have 2 krzr's and one works great, the other one has issues connecting. Sometimes the bluetooth set up launches iSync and sometimes it doesn't. Any suggestions?

i made a dark grey one if anyone wants

THANKS! worked perfect, great image too.

THANKS MATE!! Works a treat, nice image too, very easy to follow instructions.
They should employ you at apple

Hope I don't sound too ignorant but... I got my fiance's krzr to connect to my mac via bluetooth with no trouble at all. I transfered an mp3 file to it (audio folder) without any problem, but I cant find the file anywhere on the phone. I know its on there because i checked available memory before and after the transfer and the numbers match up. I guess I'm just not sure where to look or how to find this "audio" folder. Any ideas?

Apple updated Mac OS X to version 10.4.9 last night. I now appears that iSync has been updated to include the KRZR K1 and K1m.

Can anyone get their KRZR K1 to work with the new version of iSync in 10.4.9?

I sure can't:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=889354&tstart=0

If I have the old metafile that was replaced by the one on this site prior to the new version if iSync, can I saw the patched one for it and get it to work?

I have the same problem. After the patch os 10.4.9 says that my k1 (vodafone version in germany) is not supported

hey, I've tried your patch, and for some reason, i keep getting my origional message saying my phone is not connected. any ideas? thanks. Jamin

I just received the krzr k1 from cingular this week and it works beautifully with mac os x and isync via blue tooth. I love this phone it's awesome! My old razr I had to connect via usb wires. This phone is flawless.

Although the Motorola KRZR K1m is supposedly supported in iSync 2.4, I know of no one able to use iSync with a Sprint K1m. In fact, few seem to be having any luck with a KRZR at all after the 10.4.9 update. I get the "not supported" error message anytime an attempt to add my K1m as a device in iSync. Further, the graphic of the phone shown is blue rather than black.

Doesn't work for me, neither did the 10.4.9 update. Ugh. Verizon US kRzr. Lame. Email me if there is a fix...

got the krzr k1 from cingular today....it isnt working with isync via bluetooth or usb. by the way isync version 2.4 and osx 10.4.9

any suggestions?

thanks for this tip.
It worked with my krzr k1v and iSync over 10.4.9.

Has anyone gotten the krzr (verizon) to sync in 10.4.9 via usb? I'mn trying to decide if I should revert to 10.4.8 or get one of those usb bluetooth deals and try to sync that way.

Everytime I I go to add the phone in isync is says "no device found"

I think I love you. My phone works!

Just got a t-Mobile RIZR Z-3 and can't figure out how to sync it to my Mac. I read the comments in this link, but am not sure what, if anything to do. Also when I did a goodgle search, it told me about Glide but I do not see how to use this. Finally, since the phone came with a memory card, I can drag my address book into the RIZR - but, I don't know where to go from there.

Jim

Just bought a verizon krazr k1m. I am running an imac G4 10.4.9 and isync 2.4. Isync claims "no device found" when trying to add the phone. System profiler shows the phone is attached to the usb. Phone also does not charge on the usb. Do I need a specific USB cable? Thanks.

I tried to get my iSync to recognize it, but I don't have the "Metaclasses.plist" option. How can I get iSync to recognize my phone? If it helps, I'm on T-Mobile.
I have Mac OS 10.4.9 and iSync 2.4, but I don't have the Bluetooth icon in my System preferences. Does that mean that, even though I have Bluetooth in my Applications folder, that I have to get a USB Bluetooth adapter? So confused...

So I have the Metalcasses now, and I tried the plug-in above, but it still doesn't recognize my phone. Even if I get iSync to recognize my phone, will I get it to communicate with iCal? I'm looking for calendars, not contacts.

And on to another question... I recently noticed that my phone says it's using Edge technology. How is this so? I have T-Mobile, so it should say GPRS, right? So somehow I managed to change some setting to GPRS, but it still says Edge. Now I can't find what setting I changed, or where that option to change from Edge to GPRS even is. I can now no longer send text messages. Is it because I changed it to GPRS? If so, how do I change it back? and if not, WTF?!

Update to last post:

So I can receive text messages, I just can't send or reply. Any ideas? Please?

la sincronizacion que lograron despues de agregar el modelo K1 al iSync es muy limitada, la agenda no sincroniza bien, borra numeros del telefono, no funcionan las marcaciones ni los mensajes. Una cagada

Praise ye!

This worked a treat, silver K1, on Tiger in UK.

Apple are lying... imagine that.

Krazr K1 (PRODUCT)RED on Rogers in Canada...worked like a charm. Amazing that my old RAZR worked WITHOUT a hack, and yet this KRAZR does not. Regardless, can't thank you enough for the replacement Metaclass file.

Hmm I have a new K1 KRZR (Blue) in France and sync'd one time successfully before upgrading to 10.4.10...and now the thing will not sync at all. It starts and then isync says that the phone has cancelled the sync. Has anyone seen this?

Any fix for the V3m?

iSync will see the phone but says "iSync can not connect to this device" I would be happy if just the contacts would work.

I have an Intel iMac. Latest updates on all software.

FYI:... I managed to get my Canadian CDMA KRZR (Bell Mobility) running by adding the gmi+gmm of:

Motorola CE, Copyright 2000+Motorola CDMA K1mm phone

It is only syncing through USB... haven't got BT working yet though

what files or changes did you make.. i have the same phone and can't use isync

hi
thank you for the meta
I was able to sync my k1, unfortunetaly the voice command don't work anymore ... why?
how can I can I get it back to work? as I use it quite a lot?
help
thank you

I used this for my k1m and it worked well to synchronize my contacts. Thanks!

Same here K1 on Orange in UK. Worked fine until the 10.4.9/10 update, now phone cancells sync.

Right pain as I use the calendar constantly. hope they fix it soon.

wife bought an unlocked krzr k1 and now she can't send pictures and she's unable to find her bluetooth on this phone, there might be more things missing, Can anyone help?

thank you for all the comments above.
I replaced the metaclasses file-
it finally recognizes my phone but it won't truly sync-- It puts my address book contacts in my phone- but it wont add my phone contacts on my macbook- did I do something wrong?
Also, anyone found a solution for iCal?

thanks!

I just found a solution for my KRZR K1. I'm running iSync 2.4 with OS 10.4.10.

This fix makes it possible to sync address book contents, but not calendar contents.

Use the same file that Jeff linked above, but put it in the following location:

Drill down to the following:
Contents -> Plugins -> ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice -> Contents -> Plugins -> Motorola-K1.phoneplugin -> Contents -> Resources.

Hope that helps! And thanks Jeff.

Dgopoww's solution above worked for me and dropped the phone image there too- works great thanks everyone ( ATT KRZR k1, os 10.4.1, iSync Version 2.4 (501.2)) VUT USB only, "calendar not supported"

What's is the current status of syncing this phone with my Mac address book. Found tons of threads with patches & info, but some of the most recent posts seem to say that the phone is supposedly supported now. I just bought one today, and it isn't working. What is the best way to get my contacts into this phone?

using isync 2.4 on system 10.4.10

i am using 10.4.10 on a macbook with iSync 2.4 and with the very excellent download from the top of the page from jcraven and the directions from Dgopoww it works perfectly. I am so chuffed! Months of searching and this site has sorted the address book for me! The calendar doesn't work but hey!

Thanks for all your efforts and help!

Over the moon!

PS I should have mentioned i have the KRZR K1 on Vodafone in the UK.

Thanks once again!!!!!!!

BTW I wanted to know if Leopard has solved the KRZR K1 iSync and iCal issues.

To find out I just went into an apple store in LA with my KRZR to try iSnyc under Leopard on a new macbook. I am sad to say if failed in exactly the same way it fails under 10.4.10 (without this sites excellent work around!). When trying to add the KRZR as a device it finds it via BT but then lists it as not compatible with iSync. Looks like its going to be up to individuals like yourselves to solve the issue! Bad Apple!

So I updated my isync with the new MetaClasses.plist file above, it found my new KRZR K1, (great!) it says it has successfully synced the phone with my contacts, but when I look in my phone, the contacts aren't there. Anyone have any suggestions?

I'm really baffled. My Krazr (UK, orange network) synced perfectly with my Intel Mac out of the box for about 6 months and has suddenly started coming up with these errors - it tries to connect for about 2 minutes, and then gives error that either 'unable to connect' or 'the device cancelled the connection'. I can still browse the phone's memory via bluetooth to get pictures off it, but I can't sync contacts and calender which is a drag. I can't believe it worked once but has stopped working. Is this a new problem? Has Apple 'broken' something with a recent release that it had previously fixed?

I have a CDMA Krazr on the Telus network (Canada). I can't get iSync to talk to the phone at all. All I get is "this device is not supported by iSync". I have had limited success with bitpim but its pretty clumsy. I am running an Intel Macbook Pro with OX 10.4.11

Any suggestions?

yoh, you made my day. ever since i got this freaking krzr k1 i was trying to sync my cell with my mac, i have been trying almost all the 3rd parties software and had plenty of chats with apple. only with your metaclasses.plist it is now working. a 11 month nightmare is finally over. thanks a lot!!!
christian

IF YOUR PHONE WILL NOT SYNC. On your phone go to settings/phone info/update phone software. I did this and my phone would then sync. I did not try to sync iCal though. Hope this helps.

Nice. Thanks!

if you have problems again working with 10.4.11, just redo the same method written in the top of page.

It seems that Apple update pkgs initialize iSyncs meta.plist.

;-)
cheers

Thanks a lot!

Awesome! Thanks!!

Thank you so much!!!
I was on the phone for 5 hours with Rogers, Motorola and Apple!!!
You are the one that solved the issue...and you rock.
Sincerest regards!

Thanks!

Thanks so much!

I guess I'm doing something wrong!
did it exactly as you wrote, but no dice
help
brand new phone but I can't transfer my contacts
any ideas
thanks

Hello all,

I know how frustrating this can be. My wife just bought a K1 two weeks ago, and was not pleased when I told her that she may have to update her phone book manually. Not a single solution that I came across worked for me, and I looked long and hard, tried over and over again. Just as I was about to give up, success! Bare with me, as I don't recall the exact steps, but it goes something like this:

1. Pair up through Bluetooth Setup Assistant.
2. Open Address Book.
3. Highlight the contact which you'd like to transfer to the phone.
4. Go to the "Card" tab, and select "Send this card".
5. A window will pop up with a list of your Bluetooth devices (ie, Motorola phone). Check that it's your phone that is highlighted.
6. Hit Select and proceed with accepting the transfer on your Krzr.

That's what worked for us...no use of iSync at all! Unfortunately, you have to do this for each contact, but the nice thing is that a contact with multiple phone numbers will transfer as such to your phone...no need to edit.

Hope that helps anyone struggling with this problem. I felt the responsibility to post this, as I understand the frustration out there.

Good luck!

iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.x)

Has anyone had the error message "unable to send" when sending txt messages with pics? I have not been able to receive either. Help!

thanks so much for that file!! i was getting nervous about losing those 250 contacts in my phone. FYI i synced my Rogers Wireless KRZR to my Addressbook on OSX10.5.4 using a USB cable, setting the USB connection to data (as opposed to the microSD card)

Doesn't work for me.

I syncs from the computer to the phone, but not the other way.

The suggestion made by jcraven in oct of 2006 worked for contact syncing on the motorola krzr k1. It's amazing that neither apple or motorola could help. Thanks a million.

Thanks many times to jcraven. The trick worked perfectly for me for synching contacts, even twice, because I reinstalled my system last week-end and needed to reinstall your MetaClasses.plist, and once more : tada !

Thanks for that it totally worked! You rock!

WOO HOO! Thanks jcraven you are a guru indeed! Works like a charm. Stoked man, stoked.

You are AWESOME. Thank you SOOO much!! I am so happy right now. :)

Mad ups! Mad mad mad mad mad UPs! Thank you so much. The power of an annoyed yet capable user (and Google) come to the rescue for a horde of other annoyed users once again.

If you've got a PRODUCT(RED) KRZR, here's a modified plist + Red logo for you:

Brilliant! Works a treat on contacts on KRZR K1.

Many thanks

Help! Your solution was brilliant up to 10.5.X, but now that I've upgraded to 10.6.1 it doesn't seem to work. Anyone else finding this problem? Any work arounds?

Brilliant... It does exactly what I need! It will sync my contacts on a Sasktel Krzr to my mac so I can put them on my new phone, which I should be getting today.

Tried every solution posted here to date, and still no joy for my red k1mr Verizon Wireless connected via USB to my G5 / 10.5.8 with iSync 3.0.2 ... System Profiler shows "Motrola K1m/L7c/V3m" connected through the hub, but iSync fails to notice, no matter what I have in the way of plists and tiffs. I just want to access the images I photographed using the camera phone!
