Nokia Reaches Out to Mac Users

Nokia is working to make it easier for those with Mac OS X computers to use its smartphones.

The company is offering a free plug-in to help users synchronize the data on a variety of its smartphones with one of Apple's computers. This will let users sync the iCal information on their smartphone with Apple's iSync.

This same plug-in can also sync contact data, including phone numbers, mailing addresses, email addresses, personal web sites, and even photos

A page on Nokia's web site gives a set of instructions for setting up the synchronization relationship.

This page also lists the S60-based devices that can work with iSync. This covers a wide range, from the Nokia 6600 to the Nokia E62.

The desktop or laptop needs to be running Mac OS X 10.4.9 or higher, and have all available updates from Apple installed.
