AMEO with MissingSync (Mac)

---

If you want to sync your Ameo with your Mac then you will find it won't with the current version of MissingSync

However, conbrio, over on the MissingSync forum, has a found a solution...

I used the PalmSolo download and it works fine apart from file sync is a bit slow (Syncing to Storage Card and not MicrosDrive - MissingSync does not seem to see the MicroDrive??) Could just be the cheap 2GB MiniSD card though And you have to re-run the software when you soft-reboot and set the sync back to serial. Maybe worth putting a link in your startup?

Hope this helps,

There is another way to sync your Ameo with your Mac via Missing Sync. This way does not require any other software. It also keeps the setting changes after soft resets and seems more reliable.

If you use WisBar or something similiar it is probably best to exit it, otherwise you cannot get to this screen - a possible WisBar bug?

1. From the menu go 'Settings' / 'Connections' / 'USB to PC'

2. Uncheck the tick box 'Enable advanced network functionality'

3. Probably best to re-boot you Mac and soft reset your Pocket PC and check this tick box is still unchecked (unticked).

4. Then plug-in and away you go. It seems to be a lot more releiable than the previous method. I'm using the latest beta of MissingSync.

Hope this helps fellow Mac bods out there...

p.s. file sync is still very slow - but hey - too much funkiness is probably not a good thing.

if you don't have sd, see the microdrive very well

I am using MissingSync and bluetooth and it works almost flawlessly. I can sync everything and I can even use the internet sharing capabilities of my Ameo. The only issue I have is transferring large files over to the device. This issue is a known bug and will hopefully be fixed with the next release.

I can really recommend this product to every Mac user!

pc dosent detect my device at all
