Hi All,

Bought my first Mac on Saturday after having a been a PC user for many, many years.

So far I love it and think its great.

However, I don't seem to be able to connect my phone to my Macbook in order to transfer songs onto it.

My phone came with PC software, but I just can't find any Mac software for the Sony Ericsson w910i phone.

I thought i might at least be able to see the phone if I plugged it into my macbook via the USB drive, but that doesn't work either :-/

Any suggestions?

I'm not 100% sure, but it might have to do with how your memory card is formatted. IE NTFS, which Macs can't read or will not recognize. It will read and write to FAT32. PCs can read that format too, the only problem is that you can't load any files onto your memory stick that is over 4GB.

I'm not sure what my phone's memory card is formatted as, but i thought that NTFS is fine as my external HD is formatted as NTFS and the macbook sees that no problem.

i don't really want to install XP just so that i can put music on my phone.... :Grimmace:

you should be able to transfer songs to it by setting it up (pairing it) with Bluetooth File Exchange in Utilities
