The manufacturer of the Macintosh computer does not include or make available any software that can sync a HTC Touch cell phone with data on the hard drive. A unique third-party program called "The Missing Sync" is able to bridge this gap and can be used to synchronize data such as contact information, notes, music and videos between the Mac and the cell phone. The procedure is straightforward and does not require any other software or any hardware other than a USB cable. The Mac's operating system will not be harmed in any way by having installing "The Missing Sync" to the Mac's operating system.
