Preparations for the iPhone
May 12, 2008 by leoatique
I have setup almost all of the data on my PowerBook so it can be synced with iPhone in a clean manner. Here is a short list of the things I have done.
- Cleaned up the Address Book by removing old contacts which were not required and giving it a consistent format
- Moved my work mail from Entourage to Mail.app
- Created a smart album in iPhoto to transfer pictures from it to iPhone. I have set the last 1 years data to be synced but I might change this to 6 months or 3 months when I have seen it how much space it takes.
- Created some smart playlists in iTunes beginning with letter “i”. Only these playlists will be synced because of space limitation. I am giving about 4GB for music and 1 to 1.5GB to videos.
- Cleaned up Safari bookmarks.
- Downloaded the app to unlock the iPhone.
I am still not decided about the iCal. Right now I use Google Calendar and it is working great for me. I currently “subscribe” t my Google Calendar which then I sync to my Nokia 6300.
