I have a Verizon S3 and using Kies for my iMac with some success, although I must emphasis...some. Since the latest upgrade, the Kies problem with recognizing the S3 seems to be well known and I've been on the net looking for solutions. Some S3 users have said Kies was a bad program and that Android File Transfer was a better app. Is there a consensus out there I'm unaware of? I don't spend all day trying to keep up with the latest and greatest, but like to make sure I'm using the better of two programs when it's known one is better than another. Thanks for any well known and proven advice.
