Glad its started working for you...
One thing to test... I just tried editing a contact on the computer then synced the changed data. Instead of changing it on the phone it deleted the contact from the phone completely! I've read of other's on Apple's Discussions noticing the same thing.

Jools, the same thing happened to me - edited a contact then it deleted it! However, adding the contact back through address book seems to have stabilised it.
But since the first sync I now get the following message after syncing even though the contacts seem to sync:
|K750i| Can't get modified records on device in fast sync : an unknown error occured (18)
Conduit K750i generated exception NSSyncConduitException: Can't get modified records on device in fast sync : an unknown error occured (18).
can't connect to the device to synchronize K750i.
Also, it doesn't seem to Sync the Calender still
We're getting close though!

Any of you with Panther (10.3) having problems getting iSync to see the k750i after following the lindmark.net directions?
When i go to "Add Device" it simply scans then finds nothing, but on the phone it pops up "Synchronizing...", then it says "Session Completed".
Any thoughts?
THanks.

According to Think Secret, 10.4.2 is very near to release and:
"Among the areas that have received fixes with the update are: file sharing using AFP and SMB/CIFS network file services; autologin for managed user accounts, Airport and wireless access; Core Graphics, Core Audio, and Core Image with updated ATI and NVIDIA graphics drivers; synchronization with .Mac; creating and burning disk images using Disk Utility; and
compatibility with third party applications and
devices."
Hopefully this might mean the K750i...

Greetings all - I envy you lot for having K750is to play with. I'm expecting mine any day now. In the meantime I've been tweaking iSync 2.0 (Tiger) to allow for the K750i. After encountering this issue with most of my Sony Ericssons, I'm now aware that the issue needs to be addressed before any contact has been made between my PowerBook, iSync and my Sony Ericsson. I've posted a solution that's worked in the past, but as I don't have my K750i yet, I'm unable to test it. The solution posted also adds the K600i to iSync. Good luck and report back please.
:: UNTESTED solution - use at own risk ::
Required altered files posted here:
http://www.wirelessmonkey.co.za/iSync.zip
Instructions to add the Sony Ericsson K750i and the Sony Ericsson K600i to iSync conduit list:
Before you proceed - if you've already attempted to add you Apple to the phone, or vice versa, please delete all pairing on both the phone and your Apple. Also remove all the current definitions of your K750i or K600i in the preferences ~/Library/Phones directory (under your profile).
1. Quit iSync
2. From the APPLICATIONS folder find iSync.app
3. Ctrl Click (right click) on iSync.app
4. Choose"Show package contents"
5. Open "Contents"
6. Open "Plugins"
7. Open "ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice
8. Open "Contents"
9. Open "Plugins"
10. Open "PhoneModelsSync.phoneplugin"
11. Open "Contents"
12. Open "Resources"
13. Add the three files supplied (SK600.tiff / SK750.tiff / MetaClasses.plist)
14. Choose to replace (with respect to MetaClasses.plist)
15. Close all Finder windows
16. Proceed to add device via Bluetooth
17. Select to use iSync
18. From iSync Add device - add your K750i or K600i

@WirelessMonkey
This is basically the same as the 1st post of this thread. However, I have since found a better way of doing this that doesn't require modifying the iSync application with proper phone plugins that live in the ~/Library folder. See my post a few above for details, or check out

This still isn't working for me, I've tried everything, I can browse my phone and upload and download images, themes, etc. But I can not get isync to work, I've tried the above and it didn't work.
Any ideas?

Carl, have you done all the recommended deleting pairings from Mac & phone, restarting Mac & phone, deleting all previously mentioned .plist files etc. and started again from scratch?

Dear JoolsG4
DANGER - there is a danger in using the file posted on
http://mobile.feisar.com/ in that this bloke has only provided for the K750i and deleted ALL other devices. I use a K700, S700 and a V3, which means that is I used this bloke's file I'd remove all synching for all other devices except the K750i. Please be very careful about using this file. The one I posted at
http://www.wirelessmonkey.co.za/iSync.zip just adds the K750i and K600i to the file. It doesn't affect any other devices that for now have no issue with iSync.
Cool dudes!

Yes, i was a little unsure on 7) copied the PhonePlugins folder in ~/Library
But as far as I know I did everything right, it's weird, sometimes it could sync with this device other times it said it could but justed hanged, I must admit I never got the option to merge data like a did the very first time. Although I did delete .plist files. I've also tried both other options as mentions above, hope it has broke everything else as I've also go a T68i.
Would that be an option, can I sync the T68i phone up and then use that to sync my K750i?
