 - Entering an event in Calendar Strange behavior: regardless of the method, entering the date manually, clicking on the calendar icons next to the date, attempting to change the date of an existing event, impossible to enter a January 22nd 7pm (for example) event, Entourage changes the date to one in the past as I Save/Close and complains the event is in the past. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, JLG Tag: Color Tag: 84879

 - SLOW switching to Calendar I am using a PowerBook 1.677GHz w/2GB RAM and OS X 10.5.1 Entourage 2008 takes 40-60 seconds to go from the mail window to the calendar window or to change calendars. Any suggestions? Tag: Color Tag: 84874

 - Calendar does not take future events I enter an event for a date in the future outside the current month and it puts it in the current month on the same numbered day. I cannot span a date outside the current month, and when I try to schedule an event say, 6 months in advance, I get a message that it is an event in the past and puts it on th same number day in the current month.

 - Entourage 2004 issues Hello! I have been using Entourage 2004 without a hiccup on my iBoook for over 2 years. However, about a month ago Entourage started to check and update my inbox, all my sub folders under my inbox, sent items folder, and deleted items at random. This is quite annoying because every time it checks these folders my arrow turns into a spinning ball and I am frozen from replying to email. I went into tools, run schedule, edit schedule to change the schedule without any success. It still checks all these folders at random. All I want to do is receive mail according to no set schedule. In other words I only receive mail in my inbox when I hit the send & receive button. Also, please advise how to stop these folders from being checked...it freezes me from my current activity and really bothers me. Thank you, Ira Tag: Color Tag: 84869

 - How do you insert a link in an email message? In Apple's Mail, you can highlight a word or several words in an email body, go to the Edit menu, and then select Link -> Add... and a box pops up where you can type or paste in a link. When you close the box, the word(s) you highlighted become hyperlinked to whatever link you entered into the box. It's a great way to insert/embed links in an email rather than filling your message with visible (and often long and ugly) URLs. Is there any way to do this with Entourage 2008? Thanks.

 - Square at the end of each line of copy I have several problems: 1. I have a square at the end of each line of copy. When I use the apostrophe key it acts like a hard return and moves my cursor to the next line. 2. My font sizes change and enlarge without any effort on my part. Does any one know how to fix these problems? I have rebuilt the identity database. Thank you. Tag: Color Tag: 84861

 - Problem forwarding HTML emails I've had this problem in Entourage 2004 and unfortunately it's still in Entourage 2008. I think it's a bug, or else bad design, but maybe it's something I'm doing?? Here's the deal: I get a really nicely formatted HTML email, complete with graphics, from a professional source (newsletter, company, etc.) I want to share it with colleagues. I hit FORWARD and suddenly instead of the nicely formatted HTML, it loses the graphics completely and displays HTML tags in brackets -- i.e., the full URL's. How can I forward a message with HTML graphics?? This really makes me look unprofessional when I try to pass along info. It's worse than forwarding on a BlackBerry. HELP!! Totally unacceptable. In Outlook I can forward the same emails fine, no problem, but they just turn into tag gibberish on Entourage. BTW, I do have my default format set to HTML in the preferences. Tag: Color Tag: 84835

 - Mail not coming to my sub folders I have an "Inbox" folder and 2 subfolders listing my 2 email identities within Entourage version 12.0.0. Just installed Microsoft Office 2008 yesterday so settings changed apparently, and I'd like them back. I'd like all the email to one address to go to the appropriate sub folder identity. NOT the big Inbox. Can you suggest what to do? Thanks. I'm on a Mac OS 15. Tag: Color Tag: 84832

 - Entourage 08 - Missing items from the Toolbar Entourage 2004 had a handy feature on the New E-Mail Toolbar that allowed me to move a message to a specific folder after it was sent. This is missing in Entourage 2008; it seems to be tucked away inside the Message menu, with no way to replace it back onto the toolbar. I'm disappointed. In the industry I work in, we are required by law to retain all correspondence both in and out, so I move all sent messages to a sub-folder specific to each client. Is there any way to script this feature back in? In today's era of "CYA on all corporate communications", I'm surprised this feature was made less accessible. Tag: Color Tag: 84831

 - Entourage 2008 db corrupt & fails continously after initial import Well, I got Office 2008 yesterday and installed it immediately. Everything went swimmingly. I love it. I opened Entourage and was prompted to import my old identity. Note: I use exchange and have a huge mailbox. Total size of items to import: 17.1gb. I ran through the import process which completed in ~4 hrs or so. Enterourage opened, and everything worked great. I used it for about half the day in the office. I eventually noticed that email wasn't updating in my entourage (my pc desktop outlook had 20 newer messages..) so I closed entourage and reopened. On reopening I was prompted with a corrupt db message and asked to repair. The repair takes approx 3-4 hours to run, and the microsoft db repair utility eventually crashes. It prompts to send a report and to be helpful I went ahead and did this. I've tried a few things - rebooting and running the repair utility, etc. to no avail. It looks like I'll need to dump this db and start over.. but I'm hoping not. Any insight or guidance on what I might try would be appreciated. Note: I'm running 10.5.1 Thanks Tag: Color Tag: 84828

Sorry, you're not allowed to change tastes. ;-)

The coloring in Entourage can not be customized, unfortunately. If you
haven't used the Display preference pane's Calibration option you may
find that calibrating your monitor makes a world of difference.

Hope this helps!
