Motorola V710 and Apple iSync

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.verizon (More info?)

Is there a trick to getting iSync to work properly with Motorola
phones, specifically the V710? After dropping my old Timeport in the
toilet and buying a V710 in a panic, I realized just how many numbers I
HAD on that old thing. After letting it dry out for a few days, the
Timeport now works and I was able to get the contacts transferred over.
But I'd really like to be able to get iSync to work with my new V710
so I can have a good backup.

It worked once, and then all the rest of the times I tried, I got this
error. The one time it worked was not the first time I tried it,
either - it was completely random that it worked that time. Error in
iSync log:

Error |V710| Cannot get full address book
Error Conduit V710 generated exception NSSyncConduitException:
Cannot
get full address book.
Error can't connect to the device to synchronize V710.

When I get home to my PC I plan to try to hack through the Bluetooth
OBEX exceptions, but this should work no matter what. I'm using the
Motorola USB data cable, not a bluetooth wireless connection.

Any help will be much appreciated!

Use Bluetooth, it works perfectly and without drivers. Cable connections are
troublesome with Macs due to driver problems...

I've used iSync with both a v710 and my new e815 - AND, it also connects to
EVDO and National Access without drivers, etc.
