BlackBerry Media Sync for Mac

Feelin’ left in the dust while all your Outlook-loving PC friends get all the cool BlackBerry stuff? Well, RIM has been hard at work on the Mac side of things, and we’ve got a first look at BlackBerry Media Sync for Mac. This isn’t a final version so don’t get too depressed that the options are pretty limited at this time. We’d expect the final software to break down media types like photos, music, videos, and more. In its current state you can only sync music from your iTunes playlists, and it’s all very straight-forward. As far as the options go, you can choose where to sync your music to (device or memory card), choose to select individual playlists or all of them, and… that’s about it. We’ll quit talkin’ and let you do the lookin’. After the break, of course.

Thanks, RIM ninja!

    I have PocketMac, but for some reason it says I can’t sync my iTunes or iPhoto because I don’t have a memory card in (even though I do have an 8gb memory card in my phone). Has anyone else has this problem and/or know how to deal with it? Thanks!

    PocketMac doesn’t work with the Bold and other Blackberries with both internal and SD memory.

    You should just download doubleTwist for the Mac (http://www.doubletwist.com). It’s free and really easy to sync your iTunes library or other media with doubleTwist.
