  9. Now you should be able to click sync and have it push out the data.

Notes:
    If you have already paired your phone to your computer you need to delete the pairing on both the phone and the computer.
    I have had some problems Syncing calenders i have downloaded. I would suggest that you uncheck any calenders you have downloaded. mainly these are read only calenders but just to be safe I would delete them.  

Warnings:
        If for some reason you want to redo the process or you have deleted all your contacts via your cell phone remove the cell phone device from your iSync.  Then add it back.  If you do not do that then all your contacts will be erased on your mac because since you deleted them threw the phone it thinks you do not want them.

 If you are running into trouble you can email me at vibesaw at yahoo

good luck
