A Nokia Mac app! Hooray! Nokia Media Transfer is now out!

I’ve been using this for a while and it really is nice. It plugs a gap between my phone and my Mac.

Dare I say Nokia is finally playing properly with Apple? Well, I don’t know, but I do know that Nokia phones are no longer second class citizens in the Mac universe. This is indeed a step in the right direction. Together with iSync, you can now transfer contacts, calendar, photos, videos, and music between your dearly paid for Mac and your dearly paid for Nokia phone (alas, only Nseries phones).*

This app makes it easier to transfer music from iTunes to your phone. It also makes it easier to get photos and videos into iPhoto (and back). It doesn’t work on DRM’d (hiss, Apple FairPlay) music and videos, but free stuff will be properly converted to play on your device (assuming you have the right device, yada yada). UPDATE [10jun]: It can also transfer iTunes Plus (purchased but not DRMed music). See Nokia Media Transfer FAQ on Music for more info.

Yes, you can have your cake and eat it!

*ah, but I also want to synch my to-dos and notes and bookmarks, too. sigh.

  1. Nokia Media Transfer is now out!

    Thanks to Charlie at Lifeblog for the tip
    Nokia Media Transfer is a new app that will let Mac users connect to their N-Series and transfer Pictures, Videos, Podcasts, Music and files between computer and mobile device!
    Awesome! Im do…

  2. It’s rather frustrating that they would restrict the software to N-series devices. I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t let it work with E-series phones.

  3. Viral marketing explained

    Wow. Our viral network is starting to work magnificently. Nokia didn’t do any official announcements about the beta version of Nokia Media Transfer for Mac. Just a small mention by me, Charlie, and Dameon was more than enough to…

  4. I hope is because is a beta version, but if not is very disconsiderated this actitud
