We have had a reader submission of a BETA plugin for the Nokia C3-00. Thanks to ar3k!
It supports synchronisation over both Bluetooth, and as with previous plugins, it should be compatible with iSync 2.3 and later.
Installation
There are two download alternatives: if you know how to install the plugin manually you can download the plugin on its own (it needs to be copied to the /Library/PhonePlugins folder on your computer; create the PhonePlugins folder if it doesn’t exist already), otherwise choose the Installer Package and it will be installed automatically.
Once the plugin has been installed, pair the phone and computer over bluetooth, launch iSync, and add the phone by clicking “Add Device…” under “Devices” in the menubar.
Remember to backup your data before syncing the devices.
Automatic installation:
Manual installation:
If you have any comments or feedback on how the plugin works for you, please let us know by commenting below. Enjoy!
Excellent ! Thank you very much this plugin works perfectly, I searched during 15 days how to synchronize this otherwise very nice nokia C3 with my macbook air , which was obviously C3′ weakest spot — now I am happy !
Thank you for plugin.
It works fine with my C3-00 phone.
But I use it only to sync calendars.
I didn’t try to sync contacts.
thanks thanks thanks! My Imac and my nokia c3 can talk to each other… You’re simply GREAT!!!!!
Before I found this site, I needed a plugin for C3-01. I downloaded the C6-01 plugin from the Nokia site and simply edited Info.plist and MetaClasses.plist and changed all references of C6-01 to C3-01. Worked perfectly.
hey, this looks good. thinking about buying a c3-01. so far there is no official possibilty to synchonize it with ical. may this plugin work for the c3-01 too? thanks!
It will normally not work as it is but you could most likely make one easily with iSync plugin maker following our the tutorial: http://zealouspost.com/tutorial-how-to-create-an-isync-plugin
thx!
Thank you very much…. !!!!! it works Excellent !
I needed a plugin for the c3-01 touch and type. John, I did what you did and downloaded the c6-01 plugin, changed all the c6 into c3 – worked perfectly for me as well, so thank you so much for that great idea!
omg! finally! a plug-in that works perfectly!!! at last! thank you very much for this!!!
ur soooo great!!! works perfectly! thank you so much!
Works great for me as well!
Great work !!!!!
GREAT!!!
The plug-in work perfectly only with name but doesn’t sync company data. Is it possible modify the plug-in? I can’t open the plug-in with plug-in creator…..
Thank you
Could someone please post step-by-step instructions editing the .plist files? Any help much appreciated!
Where can I find the plugin? I have searched for it all ower the web (first 2 google search pages)
A link would be helpfull!
thx
Thanks Zealouspost.com! I’ll run to buy a C3 at last!
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for the usefull tips. I’ve made the Isync Plugin for the Nokia C3-01 touch and type using the general features of Symbian S40.
Just unzip the file and drag it to the /library/phoneplugin folder. Then reload your Isync, search for the mobile phone and you should be able to synchronise standard thingies (contacts, calender)
Please find the link below

If it doesn’t work for your Mac, not for your phone: To bad. I’m not a mac expert and just applied the tutorial. If it works: Please let me know
It is interesting because for me it works for syncing contacts but fails with the calendar. Uncle Author, have you any idea?
Thanks!
Hello, I tried using your C3-00 plugin but it kept crashing and never synced more than 30% of my addressbook, so I made my own.
If anyone cares to try it, it successfully synced everything in contacts, calendar and tasks, but not without some warnings (mainly that I don’t have enough space for all the calendar events… I’ve got it set to everyone’s birthdays).
It did crash a couple times too at the beginning though, but afterwards everything was kosher.

Hope it works for everybody!
Thanks Adrian! It is also failed for me but I guess this is a software update problem. I’ll go to the Nokia Service for it tomorrow. No more ideas..
Fortunately datas have transferred to the Mac from the phone. Just the opposite direction has failed. So the most important datas have backed up.
I downloaded the C3-00 iSync plugin from nairdaleo, and I just want to say THANK YOU!!! I had been struggling for a while, and was literally looking for a replacement phone when I did one “last ditch” search, and followed the thread from the Nokia support forum to here.
Thank you again. Made my day!!!
Did I say thank you?!?!?
I have just updated my C3-00 software at a Nokia Service and the result is: Contacts have fully synced but the synchronization process freezes at the beginning of syncing calendar. (This is Adrian Leon’s plugin) Any idea? :-/
Just installed this on a Brazilian C3… works great, thanks!
what a pity, tried everything possible, beginns syncronisation, some contacts will find their way into the phone, then it crashes. 10.6.7 osx, mayby that’s it.
brandnew c3 00, latest os.
any ideas
would be so nice after all hopefull and joyfull comments
thank’s
hello, with osx 10.6.7, does not work, stops after a few seconds.
any update, any ideas, it’s a nice phone, but with no connection…
thank you
I noticed recently that appointments that are synced from iCal are moved ahead one hour on the phone. So an appt in iCal from 5-6 will appear on the phone as 4-5. The time on my computer and my phone are exactly the same, so I really don’t understand why this would happen.
Any ideas?
Same problem, have you found a solution ?
Thanks for the C3 plugin. I was worried earlier that my new phone won’t sync with my Mac running 10.6.7. I am from the Philippines. One thing I noticed as a bug is the timezone; I’m at GMT +8 but the time in my calendar seems to be showing GMT 0:00 (8 hours earlier).
Hello,
have you found the solution, I have the same problem ?
Thanks a lot. You are much better at this than the stupid Nokia staff. I´ve been locking for a plug in like this for months.
Adrian Leon’s plugin worked fine for my contacts. When I tried to turn on Calendar synching I got a message telling me “No writable calendar was found”. Is this an issue on the Mac end or the phone end? Any advice?
Nice work, thanks so much. The only bug I’ve found is that after syncing a very long address book, iSync tells me I have conflicts between the phone and the computer. This is odd because these are contacts that previously didn’t exist on the phone. So there shouldn’t be conflicts. But it’s ok, the information is there in the phone. Just something to debug if you want to spend more time on this project. If not, I simply send you my thanks and would gladly tip you a couple bucks if you asked for it. Nice work.
works like a charm! Thank you very much!!!
Thank you so very much!!!! Can I mary you?
Excellent !! Works great !! Thanx !
Hello! Thanks for the plug-in. Although I seem unable to access my phone’s contacts, which is the main reason i downloaded the plug-in. When i go to ‘browse device’ on my Mac’s bluetooth options, ‘contacts’ isn’t an option, any advice..? Cheers! F x
Hi
The plugin works by syncing the phone and computer address books through the iSync app…
Hope that helps!
Thanks a lot for your help.
This help is much appreciated
Lost my beloved iPhone last week and just bought a C3 due to my small budget -> thanks so much for making the sync possible, you really solved all my problems !!!
Took me a while to understand how to use the plugin.
(i was trying wired syncing while it works only with bluetooth connection)
Apart from that it worked like a charm.
Thank you!
hi::: i can’t download anything from my mobile x2-01.i hav update software of c3-00 and i have reseted it many times but nothing is happening.can any body help me
Hi, I have been waiting for this for ages, it’s changed my life! Many thanks. I now also know how to use the plugin creator which I didn’t know I had, thanks.
Simon
splendid
So Adrian Leon, THNX for the plugin. Downloaded and after unzip it I see that is a folder named “contents”, which includes a “Info.plist” file and a subfolder named “resources”. How should I install the plugin to my iMac, in order to work ? Shouldn’t it be a “dmg” or “pkg” file ?
Any help should be appreciated.
Sync stops after some seconds. Only some contacts come to the phone.
Could it be a problem with OSX 10.6.7?
Or too much contacts? 740?
Please help me
Hi. Shouldn’t have anything to do with OS X 10.6.7 but suspect that it’s a corruption of the data on the phone that’s preventing the sync… Similar issues have been solved in the past by doing a complete reset of the phone.
Hope that helps!
Hi – I’m looking for a Nokia C2-01 plugin? …..Is this possible?
Cheers
Brad
Pretty sure this has worked – lifesaver! (wife’s old phone was a 3650, think she got it from Noah
Worked great…just had to make sure my timezones on my computer and phone were the same…this has been a lifesaver.
Bei 30-70% bricht die Übertragung der Kontakte leider immer ab.
(OSX 10.7.1)
“[C3-00] Ein unerwarteter Fehler ist aufgetreten.
Synchronisierung des Geräts „C3-00“ fehlgeschlagen”
My german isn’t great so I’ll reply in english. Resetting the phone might help… The same error has been reported for some of the other plugins and this has solved it in the past. Remember to save all the data that you have in your phone before though as everything will be deleted!
Thanks, its works well, but just find a bug when you edit your ical event and then sync, its subtracts your gmt from event start and end time.
Need to transfer contacts from my mac to my new c3-01 !
Help please !
thanks
Thankssssssssss a lot!!!!!!!!!! you gave us a GREAT help!!!!!!!
HELPP!!my nokia c3 don’t support this pluggin!what can i do????
Excellent ! Thank you very much this plugin works perfectly!
)))))
I just bought C3 and it’s working, now i’m very happy.
Thanks a lot.
I have tried this tonight and isync tells me that the phone is not supported! I have done the installer package. I’m not very techy so please help! I bought this phone because of this web page…
Have you paired the phone and computer over bluetooth before trying to sync? If not, you do so by clicking on “Set up bluetooth device” under the Bluetooth icon in the menubar.
ok
Installed your plugin — thanks. New Zealand time is currently on daylight saving, thus is 13 hours hours ahead of GMT. However, the C3 time setting goes only to +12, so all my appointments on iCa are wrongly timed when synced to the Nokia. Suggestions?
THANK YOU whoever put this together, works great!
Am a composer and would love to contribute with a download code for my CD if you want it, contact me via mail, chao
Hi Pieter, Works great. I have a C3-01.5 changed the model number in de files, Isync see the Phone and able to sync. Thanks
