Help, how to connect Motorola phone with Mac OS X or Virtual PC
Posts: n/a cables to connect them to the computer. I'm running Mac OS X 10.3.7, and I also have Virtual PC version 6 or 7, and can use Windows 98, Windows 2000 or Windows XP SP2. After reading some threads here, I tried installing MPT on the Windows 2000 system, but it couldn't see the phone. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...and will win me big points with my wife. ;-) Thanks!!  Responses to "Help, how to connect Motorola phone with Mac OS X or Virtual PC"

Posts: n/a Re: Help, how to connect Motorola phone with Mac OS X or Virtual PC Whoops!! The above was my first post, I made some goofs: 1. MBT should be MPT. 2. I used GreaterThan sign to seperate menu items they just go concatenated. You'll figure them out, you're clever. 3. When doing the VPC settings: your selection for the phone won't be Moto V3. 4. Your selection of the modem for COM2 may be different. 5. You may not need to update MPT to ver3.23 first. I did it before I got stuff working so I included it as a setp. The most important may be the VPC settings and the XP modem selection. 6. MPT will try to use Motorola USB Modem. Don't use it! Use Motorola V Timeport modem! -- kburden000

Posts: n/a Re: Help, how to connect Motorola phone with Mac OS X or Virtual PC - Thanks and a new question Hey kburden,Thanks for the info. I tried to follow your instructions, but run into a few problems. I wasn't able to get mPT to do the Liveupdate, so I was stuck with 3.11. The other issue I had was when I tried to install the Motorola Modem Driver, I didn't find the Motorola V and Timeport Modem as an option to select. Do I have to d/l that separate? That being said, I was able to connect and use mPT with your instructions. I did need to go through and select the phone manually from the Setup menu as it wouldn't find it during the initial startup search. I was also able to connect my new v600 phone using the same procedures. Now I have a new question. mPT is working, but when I installed PST and P2K, neither of them could see the v600. Any ideas or recommendations? Thanks again for the instructions and help!!

Posts: n/a Re: Help, how to connect Motorola phone with Mac OS X or Virtual PC OK, by following these directions, I got my phone onto Phone mPT/VPC an I was able to offload pictures I took with the phone. Now I want to upload MP3 files for custom ringtones, but every one try it says is corrupted. Over here ( http://tinyurl.com/dyvle ) I saw a note that says "Mak sure it is saved as a windows MP3 format." Anyone know what a Windows format MP3 is and how to make one on a Mac -- ygo ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Cell Phone Forums: http://cellphoneforums.ne View this thread: http://cellphoneforums.net/t168294.htm
