Try performing a reset of the devices listed in iSync. This should fix your problems. Hopefully.

Yup. its definitely possible. I do it all the time. Set your Bluetooth config in the Internet Connect to *99***3# for the telephone number. Then just dial! Works like a charm every time.

If you have a bit of cash, there is software that will work much better than trying to set up scripts, because the previous poster forgot to mention all of the steps required to make it happen.
Go to:
www.novamedia.de and see what they have that might suit your needs.

I am successfully syncing all my Entourage events and contacts (YES!!! *punches air*) using e2Sync
http://www.e2sync.com. Now I want to be able to "dial up" using the P910 from my iBook. Where can I find the instructions to do this please?

first you need drivers or better yet modem scripts for your particular phone or quite possibly generic ones from a sight like this:

however if you have OS X Panther/Tiger then theres no need for scripts; they're already in your mac.
call your cellular provider for steps >> if not then contact Apple >> if not follow along here.
This is just a guide....
You can connect your Macintosh to the Internet using a GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) mobile telephone as a modem. To do so, you should first make sure that you can:
• Connect to the Internet over GPRS using the WAP browser in your telephone
• Connect your Macintosh to your mobile phone over IrDA or Bluetooth.
Once you can do these two things, you can set up your computer to use the telephone as a wireless modem to connect to the Internet.
Important: GPRS data services and Internet access are typically optional offerings. Ask your mobile phone operator about GPRS availability in your area, and what the subscription fees and service charges are.
For more information, see How to Connect to the Internet Using a GPRS Mobile Telephone.
Using your mobile phone as a wireless modem
Once you have made the appropriate network settings on your Mac, you can use your mobile phone as a wireless modem.
1. Ask your mobile phone operator for the network settings necessary to use your GPRS mobile phone as a modem. In some cases, you'll use the same network settings that your phone uses. In others, you may need to get network settings specific for computers. Typically, these settings include:
o GPRS dial-up number
o User ID
o Password
o IP Address
o DNS Address
o other advanced settings such as authentication, data compression, header compression, and quality of service
2. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
3. From the View menu, choose Network.
4. Choose New Location from the Location pop-up menu.
5. Type a name for the new location such as "Wireless Modem".
6. Choose "Network Port Configurations" from the Show pop-up menu.
7. Make sure the "USB Bluetooth Modem Adapter" is enabled. Deselect the ports or interfaces you aren't using in this location, such as "Built-in Ethernet", and "Internal Modem".
8. Click Apply Now.
9. Choose "USB Bluetooth Modem Adapter" from the Show pop-up menu.
10. Click the TCP/IP tab, if necessary. Choose "Using PPP" from the configure pop-up menu, and enter the DNS numbers and search domains as provided by your mobile phone operator.
11. Click the PPP tab, and enter the account name, password, and telephone number as provided by your mobile phone operator.
12. Click PPP Options. A sheet appears. Click "Use TCP header compression" to disable this option, and click OK. Your operator may be able to tell you if you can leave this option turned on or not.
13. Click the Bluetooth Modem tab, and choose a mobile phone model that closely resembles yours from the Modem pop-up menu. In some cases, your mobile phone operator may provide a specific modem script for you to use.
14. Click Apply Now.
15. From the View menu, choose Bluetooth.
16. Click the Settings tab, and select "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar" to enable that option, if necessary.
17. Make your mobile phone "discoverable" to other Bluetooth devices, or turn on Bluetooth communication. See the documentation that came with your phone for instructions.
18. Choose "Search for phones" from the Bluetooth menu bar item, and select your phone, which you have already paired.
19. Once your phone and Mac are connected, open the Internet Connect application.
20. Click connect. Your telephone should connect to your mobile phone operator, and in 10 to 20 seconds, you should be able to use the Internet.

hi guys:
long-time p900 user and new Mac user here...
when I had my windows XP laptop, i downloaded a p900 software called "handysafe", which allows me to keep personal information (account numbers, serial numbers, etc) on P900, guarded by a master password. It is synchronised to the PC using a matching desktop software.
does anyone of you know of a similar program that would work with Mac?

I am planning o buy the P990 in a few days here and am thrilled to see that my old Palm favorite, SplashID, which has a very good OS X client, is also available for symbian! Check it out, I HIGHLY recommend it:
