iMac OSX 10.2.6 using iSync - How as no icon is registeredjavascript:emoticon(':cry:'😉 Can anyone help an aged new user?

You'll need a USB Bluetooth dongle for the connection and make sure that you've installed the most recent version of iSync, but everything is easy after that. The P800 is a recognised device, and will synchronise contacts with your address book.
My advice is to manually send all the contacts from your P800 to the iMac first (you can tell the p800 to send all in one go, you don't have to send individually), as synchronising has a tendency to trash the phones contacts on the first attempt. Then you can use iSyncs option of erasing and synching the device to do a clean transfer (this is available as an option on the first synchronisiation). Subsequent syncs are very strait forward.

Full iSync (address and iCal) in Panther pre-release 7b44 build and above - deep joy 😊
