Music downloaded from the Zune Marketplace will also attempt to sync, but it’ll fail miserably. In my case after a couple of syncs I had a lot of Anand’s Windows Phone albums in iPhoto. The Connector will insert photos taken on the phone into iPhoto, unfortunately it puts them into albums (roughly one per day it seems) all named after your phone. You have to be very deliberate with what you want to put on the device. You can’t tell the Connector software to fill all available storage space on the phone with extra music or photos. Just check the movies, music and photos you want and hit sync and you’re good to go. I was supplied with an alpha of the Connector and despite fairly regular crashes (thankfully not while syncing), I’m happy to say it works. What the Connector is designed to do is get your non-DRM iTunes and iPhoto content from your Mac to your Windows Phone.
#WINDOWS PHONE 7 CONNECTOR MAC UPDATE#
You don’t get any access to the Zune Marketplace, you can’t download apps, there’s no WiFi syncing support and (today) there’s no system update support. The connector application doesn’t mimic the functionality of the Zune Sync software for the PC. At launch Microsoft will deliver a beta version of OS X sync software called the Windows Phone 7 Connector. Microsoft recognizes that a sizable portion of the market runs OS X, and it doesn’t want to leave them out of the fun.
The next stage is depression, and the final stage (if the company survives) is outright competition. The competitor exists but who cares, they make stupid products, our next version will assuage all fears. The competitor doesn’t exist, they have no marketshare, why bother supporting them, etc. Every huge company goes through the same motions when a smaller competitor starts making waves.
