I can't verify this because in my 10.4.2 I can rename it, but usually the Mac OS will not allow you to rename any volume that is being shared - so 'Get Info' on the mounted phone volume and see if its set to be shared by default.

Have you tried PhoneAgent? It works almost 100% with my z800i.
just did. not only did I have to re-pair my phone to make it work. but also the Theme editor is not supported for the k750i. have I missed anything? I think I can use every other funktion like sending sms / editing adress book and so on throught the "built in" OS X tools aka iSync and adressbook...
so where's the real pro for handing over 29$ for this app?

Don't pay for it. I spoke to the author. I told him that I have a z800 and they do not plan to support this so he gave me a free copy. It mostly works. Have you heard of BluePhoneElite? It is quite good. Mainly and SMS tool, but a bit more robust.
www.bluephoneelite.com is the site I think.

Hi guys
I've read through most of the 41 pages here, but it seems that most of you have bluetooth.
I have a Sony Ericsson Z500a (NO Bluetooth), and an eMac. I want to transfer mp3 ringtones to my phone from my Mac, but the software that I got with the USB cable is only for PC. It is the proper cable (can't remember what it's called,...RJ45 or something like that).
Anyone know what software I can used (bearing in mind that Bluetooth is not an option)?
Thanks in advance.

The following works with the K700, T610 & T230, so should also work with your phone, although I haven't tested it.
You'll need a SonyEricsson RS-232 data cable such as the
DRS-11 or third-party equivalent from eBay. (There's no official Mac drivers available for the USB cable unfortunately.)
You will then need a RS-232 to USB converter for your Mac, such as
this or
this sold by Keyspan. This does come with drivers so you can use the above RS-232 cable on your Mac.
Finally, for sending files to the phone, via the above cable & converter combo, you'll need a program such as
GSM Remote.
Hope that helps.

Here's the only other option, which I've never managed to get working.
Almost all USB cables for mobiles don't come with Mac drivers, however, the majority of them are based on the PL-2303 USB-Serial chipset manufactured by Prolific Technology in Taiwan.
In most cases the Apple System Profiler will list a device called 'PL2303', although MacOS X itself won't recognise the cable. There are different chipsets, but the PL2303 seems to be widely used in cheaper cables.
- To download the Mac OS X PL2303 driver go to their web-site
here.
- Click "Download" and scroll to the bottom of the resulting page.
- Choose "Drivers for Mac OS" from the pop-up menu and click "Go"
- Scroll down to "PL-2303 USB to Serial Bridge Controller"
- Download the "md_pl2303H_HX_X_v1.0.9b6.zip" file for Mac OS X
- The zip file should un-zip and leave a "PL2303_1.0.9b6.pkg.hqx" file
- This is a Mac BinHex file which should be unpacked with StuffIt Expander
- Then install the "PL2303_1.0.9b6.pkg"
Hopefully your USB cable will now work! Because I've never got this to work, I'm not sure what you'd do next! Maybe GSM Remote will allow you to send files to your phone via USB.

Anyone know if you can transfer files (mp3 etc.) using MegaCellX?
I installed it on my eMac, and it looks like it will work. It recognizes my phone (depsite not being on the supported phone list). But since I have not registered it, I don't know for sure whether I can transfer MP3s with it, or if it's only for phonebook contacts.
I know the registration is only $20 US, but I thought I would ask here first since I'm sure some of you have used it.
Thanks again.
