OS/X iSync + Nokia

So here's the plan, synchronise a Nokia E90's calendar + contacts to an Apple...sounds simple but as luck will have it OS/X iSync does not support the Nokia E90 unless a plugin is installed. The plugin is required for most of Nokia's new phones, the list of all applicable phones and the plugin download link can be found here: Nokia iSync Support

So thats the beginning, download and install the plugin, connect the phone, open iSync and add a new device, the scan will find it and allows you to add it and setup the scynchronisation options...

The other complication came in the way of Microsoft Entourage, iSync allows you to synchronise ONLY Apple Address Book contacts and ONLY Apple iCal entries. Entourage has a Sync Services preference setting that synchronises the Entourage Address Book with Apple's Address Book and synchronises the Entourage Calendar to iCal ... so once thats setup go back to iSync and choose the relevant Calendar and hit Sync :)
