Anyway, I have tried it in VirtualPC 7.0.2 on a Mac OS X 10.4.9 PowerPC, with the latest Nokia PC Suite and a Nokia 6630 phone connected through the USB cable: it works, even if sometimes the connection seems to drop. On a PowerPC Mac, of course, it is rather slow! Now, if only one could use also the Bluetooth connection through VPC. I have a Mac Mini running Mountain Lion and I use InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop, all CS6 version (those are the newest versions I have of those programs). I would like to upgrade to a newer Mac OS but I want to make sure I don't lose the use of my Adobe programs.

I can't speak for VPC but the recent builds of Parallels (v2.6, b3188.0) solved this problem.
Yes for Parallels: but Virtual PC is still at version 7.0.2 (where the Nokia USB problem exists); and it seems unlikely that there will be any updates in the future, as Microsoft sadly seems to have decided to discontinue development of the Mac version of Virtual PC (which is an excellent program, even better than the PC version!).
Anyway, it would be cool if there could be something like a 7.0.3 update which resolves all remaining problems, but maybe this is rather unlikely.
At least, Apple and Microsoft should think seriosuly about Mac OS X 10.5.x compatibility for Virtual PC 7, considering that Leopard will be available also for G4/G5 PPC Macs and that Virtual PC is a very important application for many of us. Hdr for mac os.
Not for me and a 6610 via USB. Also my build 3188 is a version of 2.5xxx (I believe).
There seems to be a known issue with 66xx and PC Suite with 3188. Now when I synch my 6682 it gets 90% of the way thru and then throws an error, and does not reconnect until I reboot.
When I had 1970 [a build of 2.0] I had no problems with Parallels.
If you haven't already, you should also go to the Parallels Forums and tell them about this.
Either spawn another thread for your 6610 or look for mine. Search Nokia PC Suite.

Nokia Care Suite For Mac Os
Same as the comment before, I use the Nokia Pc Suite through Parallels since some months.
USB support was fixed in some old beta release and works perfectly fine here.
I can't get either 6.82 or 6.83 to work with the C-42 cable (Windows BSOD) or Bluetooth (not found) with Parallels 3188. Very frustrating - should anyone have ideas, I'm all ears.
Tested on Nokia 9300 (latest firmware) and connectivity cable coming free with it (DKU-2).
I just say, I should read this hint 2 days ago :) So my 100 virtual reboots, 20 cable driver installations were for nothing.
Works all fine! Can't thank enough.
(Quad G5+VPC Latest+10.4.10+Firmware latest+DKU-2 cable)
ps: Nokia bluetooth transfer speeds on pre N series are horrible, you didn't lose anything not being able to connect via bluetooth
ps2: Ever seen the quality of bluetooth stack of windows? :) Horrible, no less. Perhaps they don't include BT support for that reason. Let them don't see how horrible OS it is? lol
ps3: Based on the kernel extensions we unload (harmless), I think there were some Nokia project to support OS X out of the box (full!) and they cancelled it. The things we unload are actually related to things phone supports.

The blog that is linked to in this hint has a BROKEN link to the usbfix.sh file!! If anyone here that already had downloaded the file (and still has it) could possibly share it with me, that would be great! Preferably, the original hint poster. :) Thanks.

I tried to answer to your email, but there were repeated errors in delivery; so I answer you here: sadly, I don't have that script anymore, but you could always try to email the Nokia Blog and see if they still have it..
Good luck! :-)
