Excuse my igonorance on your situation, but . . .

- Do you have a Bluetooth capable computer?
If not you need to get a bluetooth dongle or the data cable skn6311 (I have heard others have had trouble syncing with the Data cable however)

- What version of iSync do you have, update to 2.1

For BT:
- make sure BT is turned on in your phone (menu - settings - connections - bluetooth - setup - find me)

- Open System prefs on your Mac, open the BT preference

- You must "pair" the phone and the Mac, it should be pretty self explanatory (if you have problems with this do a search on Bluetooth pairing or write back in this thread)

- If your phone was already "paired" try deleting it and "re-pairing"

- After the phone is done, open iSync - add device (try selecitng "find me" w/ the e815 again)

- Sync



A Few Tips:
BT can be a little finicky, try power cycling (turn off and on) the phone

I have been able to successfully sync "out-of-the-box" with my e815.

I have also enable OBEX file transer with a seem edit, check out the Motorola section of the Howard Forums for more info
