Hi, I am having a problem with iSync and would like to know if anyone has a solution...

I just recently paired my Blackberry 8700c with my MBP (bluetooth) and for the first time it gave me the option to "Sync with Address Book"...

So I open up iSync and it tells me it cannot connect to this device...what is up with that?? If anyone has had ANY luck syncing their Blackberries through iSync and Bluetooth I would appreciate it if you could help me out.

Please do not recommened PocketMac, I have tried it several times and it is not working, and no one there can seem to help me! :(

Thanks!

I think the problem with PocketMac is that only certain models of BB are supported. For the others, you might look at SyncAgain. I saw it mentioned in a ZDNet article a while back. It's pricey, though, I think.

Here's the quote from the article:

PocketMac said:
The software is compatible with the personal information parts of Microsoft's Entourage application, as well as the OS X address book, iCal and Now Software's Now Contact and Now Up-To-Date programs.

The program works with the BlackBerry 5810, 6210, 6230, 6280, 6510, 6710, 6750, 7210, 7230, 7280, 7510, 7730, 7750 and 7780, and the RIM 957 device.

SyncAgain said:
In late May, RIM and software partner Epicad announced a similar application for BlackBerry 5800, 6200, 6500, 6700, 7200, 7500 and 7700 series devices and computers running Mac OS 10.3 and higher. A licence for the Epicad software, called SyncAgain, costs $139. SyncAgain synchronises with BlackBerry Enterprise Server software, and is currently available only to users of that server software.
