10.4 Support? - Version: 1.0.6.20080804, 8/4/2008 09:45PM PST

Excellent software, but what's happening to updating versions and 10.4 compatibility?
Handy little program

I've been using BitPim for several years and while it is by no means pretty it does what it says it will. It has allowed me to back up my Sanyo MM-8300 (and an MM-8200 before it) cell phone with no hassles. It looks like it was laid out by a PC or Unix person but it works well. Doesn't have the most intuitive user interface either but it gets the job done.
Without it you're basically stuck on a Mac as Sprint centers will tell you that you can't (or *they* can't) back up the phone to a computer. pshaw! No more re-typing contact numbers again.
Also have never had issues with BitPim crashing.

I'm using this on a Mac Pro running Tiger and syncing to an LG VX8300 on the Verizon network. It's very unreliable. It crashes back to the OS frequently. Many of the features don't work. It even crashes when you try to complete the program's trouble report. Stay away.
Important app

I'm torn on things like this, where I am really appreciative that an app even exists and I'm also disgusted by how it works. The user interface is terrible and when you get errors the feedback is not friendly. Getting it to talk to the phone is a pain. When it DOES work it works well, but I've only gotten there by memorizing the steps that make it happy. I admit a large part of the fault is the manufacturers -- communication with cellphones should be standardized and developers shouldn't have to hack the phones one model at a time, as the Bitpim crew has, to reverse engineer how they work. Moreover, Verizon deliberately cripples bluetooth on some phones, adding to the user headaches. So, I'm sympathetic but still hate using Bitpim; I recommend it b/c it's the best we can do. Verizon is not helpful, either. I've had the best luck with BitPim vx8700, moderate success with vx8300, and problems with vx5300 -- it's just not consistent. I would better I think with USB cables over Bluetooth buit don't want to buy all those cables and hate cables anyway.
So when will iSync be extended to LG? Probably never.

This is a wonderful program for me.
I use it for the Calendar and PhoneBook functions on my Macs with OS X and an LGVX8300.
Whereas some iterations ago I had problems, the test versions for 1.0.0 have all functioned well, as does the release version.
I applaud the development team and am grateful for all the sweat and tears behind the program.

Won't start up - Version: 0.9.10, 3/14/2007 02:33PM PST

I get crashes right out of the gate. Checking the console shows that it is because I uninstalled most of the languages on my Mac. Now, I'm not a professional programmer, but do you really need to call EVERY SINGLE language at start up. Why not just pop up and ask which one you want and call that one? Would like to use the program , but not enough to reinstall 3 gigs of languages I don't need.
compatible w/ LG CU500 from Cingular? - Version: 0.9.10, 2/19/2007 03:15PM PST

Just got the LG CU500 with Cingular service. Is BitPim supporting this model/carrier?
I downloaded and installed BitPim, tried to use it with a data cable but it wouldn't connect to LG phone. I gave up on it.
Much later I tried to connect my Bluetooth printer to my computer. I have been using it for years without problems. I kept getting the message NO BLUETOOTH HARDWARE FOUND
