Android - mac Sync: HELP!!!???

Lurker
I just bought a samsung galaxy Ace 2 and I am climbing the wall trying to sync with my maxbook pro (os 10.6.8).
Tried sync mate but the phone is not supported.

Tried syncing via google - that's what everyone seems to recommend:
I only want to sync contacts (no big problems so far) and ical ( 2 or 3 seperate calanders)
I set up the syncing ok, but then google calenders did a wierdy 'delegate' thing where it duplicated all my calenders. some of them sync with my phone, some sync with the computer.... some calander evets disappear, some are duplicated....

PLEASE HELP!! How can I either get rid of the delegate / duplication nonsense, or (better) find an alternative way of syncing the phone and the computer???? Or should I get a different phone??? It really shouldn't be this hard.....

Try asking in the main forum, someone there might be able to help.
 
I had the same problems and found SmoothSync apps to work extremely well. There's one for the calendar and one for contacts. The only hassle I had was with the contacts app which would not sync pictures of contacts: contacted the developer (who responded really quickly) who thought it was due to the Android version - managed to work around the problem by putting pictures into the phone's gallery and then using the Edit function in Contacts to select the photo from the Gallery. Musts ay I wish I'd come across SmoothSync before spending hours trying to solve the problem you also seem to enfacing!

Hope this helps.
