NEWS: Mark/Space Acquires MySync Mac-to-Mac Sync Software We are pleased to announce that Mark/Space has acquired MySync from MildMannered Industries. MySync, currently available as a public beta, allows users to synchronize contacts, calendar events, tasks and more between two or more Macs on a network. MySync employs Apple's Sync Services technology in Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" to sync the same types of information supported by .Mac syncing. Besides Address Book and iCal, more and more applications are using Sync Services, including Bare Bones Yojimbo, Chronos SOHO Organizer, Market Circle Daylight, Microsoft Entourage and all four Missing Sync applications. The information that these applications send to Sync Services can be synced Mac-to-Mac using MySync. To learn more about MySync, or to download and try it today, visit: . ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. BETA: Windows Mobile 5 and Intel Support in v2.5 Beta Version 2.5 of The Missing Sync for Windows Mobile, which adds support for devices running Windows Mobile 5 (WM5) and runs natively on Intel and PowerPC Macs, has just entered the beta phase. This update has required a great deal of engineering work, since Microsoft completely revamped communication with WM5 devices; connections, security and syncing all changed with WM5. We're almost finished with development on this exciting product, and we're looking forward to releasing it commercially. In the meantime, if you already own version 2.0, you can download and try the v2.5 beta from our testing page. If you don't own v2.0, v2.5 will be a free upgrade for all v2.0 owners, so you don't need to worry about an upgrade price if you want to purchase a v2.0 license to use with the 2.5 beta. Remember, this is beta software, so be sure to back up your important information before installing and using the beta. You can learn more about the v2.5 beta and find links to Known Issues, the Beta Bug Report form and how to download it here: . ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. NEW/UPDATED: Missing Sync for Sony PSP, v1.0.1 Last month, Mark/Space shipped a brand new product: The Missing Sync for Sony PSP. This latest addition to the Missing Sync family increases the functionality and the fun-factor of Sony's PlayStation Portable gaming rig. It does all the nifty stuff that you'd expect it to, like encode videos into the PSP's required format, resize and download iPhoto album photos and copy music and podcasts from iTunes, but it also does some totally new stuff that makes the PSP even more useful. The PSP has one of the best mobile web browsers in existence, and we realized that we could leverage that into some totally cool features for the user. The Missing Sync for Sony PSP takes Address Book and iCal data from Sync Services and it generates web pages with that information on the PSP's Memory Stick. That means that your entire contacts list and all your calendars are right there in your PSP. We've done the same with Safari bookmarks and notes from the included Mark/Space Notebook app. And of course, we give you several fun themes for viewing the data. Then we took it one step further, and we added a feature that lets you download web pages, blogs and RSS feeds for offline viewing. That means that you will always have something to read, even when you're in a Wi-Fi dead zone. The Missing Sync for Sony PSP sells for $29.95 (download). To learn more about or purchase The Missing Sync for Sony PSP, go to: . ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. FREE OFFER: Missing Sync for Windows Mobile--Cell Phone Bundle We've joined up with the good folks at On The Go Solutions to offer a free copy of The Missing Sync for Windows Mobile (with a free upgrade to the upcoming 2.5 version) with the GSM i-mate Jam. The i-mate Jam is a Pocket PC Phone Edition device, which means that it adds smartphone functionality to a fully-featured Pocket PC-style device complete with a touch-screen and Pocket Outlook, Word and Excel. The CD version of The Missing Sync, regularly $49.95, is included for free. Check it out! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. TIPS & TRICKS: How to Get Google Calendars on Your Device Google keeps coming up with more and more great web applications. First it was mail, and now Google Calendar is all the rage. Google even provides a special iCal-style URL for each Google Calendar that you create, which allows you to subscribe to those calendars with iCal. Once in iCal, those events can be synced through The Missing Sync to any of the devices we support. Google offers instructions on how to subscribe to Google Calendars from iCal: . Unfortunately, subscribed calendars in iCal are read-only, which means that you can't make any changes to Google Calendar events in iCal. We're not aware of any utility that provides two-way synchronization between iCal and Google calendar. If you'd like to see Mark/Space do something about that, let us know by filling out our New Product Request form: . ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. SUPPORT: Support Site Improvements - Landing Page and Search Mark/Space is always working to improve the free support resources that we make available for our customers. Most recently, we've made two improvements that make getting the answer you're looking for much faster and easier. First, we've created a new support "landing page" that will help direct you to the best part of our site for the information you need. Many answers, such as those detailing misplaced registration codes or supported devices are only one click away. From there, you'll also find easy access to our Support Knowledgebase, which leads perfectly into our next improvement... We've also improved our Support Knowledgebase search feature to make the search feature far more accurate by allowing searches to be filtered by product. So if you're searching for help with a Bluetooth connectivity issue with a Windows Mobile device, you won't receive responses related to Palm OS Bluetooth support. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. NEW STUFF: Sony PSP Games in the Mark/Space Online Store Now that we have The Missing Sync for Sony PSP in our product lineup, we've added popular PlayStation Portable games to our online store. We stock these titles in our warehouse, so we can ship them right out to you.
