I am having a problem getting my address book on my MacBook Pro to sync with my Curve 8310. I am using PocketMac for Blackberry ver. 1.2 I have the program set up to sync both ways but I sometimes find that all my contacts show up on my Blackberry. Am I doing something wrong. I never seemed to have any problem when I had a Palm Treo and synched with Microsoft Outlook. I don't want to go back but would appreciate any advice.
