Ok, well, as I said, your phone will only update the Mac if you have made changes on the phone since the last sync. If you haven't made any changes on the phone then there's no data for it to sync back to the Mac.
You could try going into iCal, choose "File > Export" and save the iCal entries as an .ics file. Then transfer this .ics file to the phone with Bluetooth File Exchange.
I'm not at home at the moment so I can't test it. Let me know if it works for you!

Im new to all this firmware update stuff, i need some help. I have just got a K700i on Orange. I see there is a firmware update. I asked at the shop they told me some porkies then i called Sony they also told me some news. The problem seems to be that im a Mac user. When i bought the phone they said i will have no trouble with mac. I see on some forums that they have got the iSync to work via Bluetooth. So some compatability. I have told that i can not update from the Sony Ericsson site as it`s PC only. Does this make any sence to anyone........? Please help.
I like the phone and im not too fussed about sync but i would like the firmware update. I cant see any way to get it without sending my phone back to Sony to be flashed. Any help would be appreciated.
I have a Powerbook without b/tooth.G5.using (0SX 10.3.5v) K700i currenlty using R2C001.

The K700i is very Mac compatibel. iSync is the main reason you'd choose a SonyEricsson phone to use with a Mac. iSync is better than anything on a PC for synchronising the Mac OS X Address Book and iCal with the equivalent functions in the phone. It's well worth using.
Unfortunately, you cannot use the SonyEricsson online firmware update service with a Mac - it is PC only. However, one guy on this forum says that it does work with Virtual PC if you use the Opera browser. Others have tried it with Internet Explorer and it has trashed their phone, so be warned!

Jools, if take my S700 to the shop where I bought it can they do update on their PC, do I take the cradle with me or is it done on cable.
I've never bothered about before because it doesn't seem necessary, and I got mac.

I'm not completely sure. When I took my T610 in to a SE Service Centre in Birmingham, they used their own cable and equipment. However, now that it can be done online with a DSS-20/25 I'm not sure. I guess it would be the same, as not everyone will have one to take in with them.

@JoolsG4
Have you heard of anyone iSyncing a s700 with a Mac. I have a G4 and it finds the s700 via BT but iSync is dead in the water as usual. Any help appreciated.
