The Missing Sync for Symbian
Sync your lovely Symbian device with the Mac

Mark/Space, Inc. today announced the immediate availability of a Symbian version of its data transfer software, The Missing Sync for Symbian. Now Mac users can take full advantage of Symbian OS devices from Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola.

The Missing Sync for Symbian is the first Mark/Space product to feature Proximity Sync™ technology. This new approach to synchronization uses Bluetooth to sync data automatically when the devices are close to each other.

Brian Hall, Mark/Space CEO, said “I know people are going to love the ease of use brought by Proximity Sync. Just having your phone in the same room as your Mac from time to time is all you need to do to keep in sync.”

Syncing without thinking, wireless and cable free
Users won’t ever need to remember to sync again. When the phone is in range of the Mac – within approximately 30 feet – Proximity Sync will connect via Bluetooth and synchronize the correct information. 

The process is entirely automatic; no user intervention is necessary at any point. The synchronization process can happen with your phone still in your pocket. No messy cables, just automatic file transfers through the air.

Contacts, calendars and tasks
The Missing Sync for Symbian makes it simple to travel with contacts, calendar events and tasks. Create to-do items, new contacts or events on either your phone, or your Mac. The information is automatically synchronized. 

Pictures, music, movies and files
If you have software for viewing images and documents, or playing MP3s and video, then Missing Sync for Symbian can manage those files too. Music and video can be synchronized between iTunes and the phone.** If there are pictures or videos created on the phone, they will be transferred to the Mac. 

Other file types can be synchronised to any folder on the phone or on the Mac. This means handheld applications such as Quickoffice or Adobe Reader LE will have access to files created on the Mac. 

SMS text messages and call log
The Missing Sync for Symbian archives your phone’s text messages and call log to your Mac. So, you’ll have a history of all your phone calls whether you are tracking them for billing purposes, or just want to know when you last called your Mom. And, when you have to find a specific piece of information from a thread of text messages, The Missing Sync for Symbian makes it easy to search your SMS archive and find what you’re looking for, fast.

Pricing and availability 
The Missing Sync for Symbian is available as an electronic download from the Mark/Space online store for USD $39.95.

Product requirements: 
The Missing Sync for Symbian requires a Mac running Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later and native Bluetooth support. It is compatible with most mobile phones from Nokia running Symbian S60 (3rd Rev or later) and phones from Sony Ericcson and Motorola running Symbian UIQ 3.0 or later.
