Security Message in Entourage 2008
I upgraded to Office 2008 (Std upgrade) last night. Now when I download email from my ISP, I am getting a yellow band under the From/To area of an email that has an open envelope icon and the words "For your security, Entourage will block submission of this form." <br><br>II have searched the Help topics area of the program and previous threads on this forum trying to locate the schematics of this "band," which I never had in Office 2004 - no luck, so far. <br><br>Where is this coming from? What kind of form is having its submission blocked? And, what can I do about it? <br><br>Respectfully, <br>

Is there a way to archive old emails, contacts, etc. for entourage onto a
disk and start entourage fresh with a new email account? If not, is there
something similar?
I used to work from home for my previous employer and used my entourage
exclusively for that. Now he only calls me about once every six months. I
need to keep all his client lists available, but not handy enough for daily
use. I need to separate what I do for him with what I do on a daily basis
with my current work.
Thanks everyone for any help you can provide!

Importing into Entourage 2008
I installed Office 2008 today and launched Entourage. I asked it to
import my 3.1 gig database from Entourage v. X. It saw it where it had
been preserved in the Microsoft User Data folder and agreed to do the
import, but claimed it was complete a second later and asked me to
click the "finish" button, and it had imported nothing.
I tried navigating to a copy of the database on an external hard drive
and the result was the same.
The Old database had been freshly compacted, with all deleted mail
emptied as was suggested on the Entourage Help Blog.
Any suggestions? Tag: Default view Tag: 84685

Calendar Question Entourage 2008
When you accept a meeting invite with an attachment in Entourage 2008, does

Syncing Entourage calendars
I'm still having trouble getting the Entourage calendar from my main
computer (Mac OS 10.4.11) to my laptop (same OS). Someone on this listserv
alerted me to the fact that Sync will look in iCal for an Entourage
calendar. But I seem to be missing a step that tells it to look for an
Entourage calendar.
I saw the post from Michel Bintener "Re: iCal sync does not work in
Entourage" which almost answers my question. However, instead of an iCal to
Entourage calendar sync, I need an Entourage to Entourage calendar sync.

If I'm not mistaken when you print the calendar as a list in Outlook, it
prints everything pertaining to each individual event.
This is my issue: I need to print a year of events in Entourage in one
specific category that have notes included within the event. For some
reason I can't get the information within the note field to print in either
daily or list views and I see nowhere that I can indicate to include this
information.
Is this something which isn't possible to do or am I going to have to print
the dates using List view and handwrite all of the notes in next to the
events?

More sync hell
I've been syncing Ical and Address Book very happily with my Nokia N95 for some time. First sync with Entourage around.... every contact is duplicated. I'd advise any new user to make a backup of address book before syncing and be prepared to go through the tedious routine of resetting the .Mac sync store to get this right. I am OK now. Hope this isn't going to turn out to be a regular occurrence. Tag: Default view Tag: 84654
Attachments in Events for 2008
Does anyone know if Entourage 2008 supports meeting notices with

In 2004, if you accepted a meeting, the Calendar the meeting with the

the meeting notice in the Inbox.

No Exchange in Entourage 08 Home but can you use Sync Services?
Entourage 08 Home/Student doesn't include Exchange support. I assume

Synchronization still lacking
According to Microsoft's site, Entourage 2008 will not be able to synchronize the following items with an Exchange server: <br>
Server side Rules <br>
Notes <br>
Tasks <br>
Categories <br>
Contacts' e-mail addresses limited to first three entries <br>
Travel time in calendar items <br><br>Excuse me, but for being an application that is geared toward corporate entities I believe this is a very large short-coming. I work in an IT department and am always going between platforms. I need to have the ability to see ALL of the items that I input all the time. In my line of work, there is no exception to this. Daily tasks can change on an almost hourly basis. <br><br>I am very dissatisfied with the fact that these items have been left off. This seems to depreciate the value of Entourage as well. If it was not for the fact that I still need to use Entourage for calendar support I would stop using it now as there is no other compelling reason. <br><br>There also appears to be some issues of loss of information when synchronizing to Exchange. For example, the Contacts' mailing addresses being limited to only the first three entries is a limitation. This loss of information could lead to an e-mail not getting to the person in a timely manner. For example because only the first three address are synchronized, If I'm off site and need to e-mail my supervisor something, I should not have to make sure that the e-mail address he/she is at is listed at is one of the first three on my office computer. <br><br>Travel time in calendar items is also a big missing feature. If I put travel time down for commuting from the main building to another site and back again, how are others going to know not to schedule an overlapping event? To date, I've had to contend with putting in multiple events to overcome this shortcoming. <br><br>I was very much hoping that these issues would be address with this version, but they have not. I just hope that these issues are resolved in a timely manner and full synchronization support that is available in Outlook 2007 for PC is made available for Entourage 2008 for Mac.

Having participated in the Microsoft public newsgroups for a few years,

Some of these problems have been addressed in Entourage 2008 and some of

Syncing Entourage calendars between computers
I have two Mac OS X computers (10.4.11). I've managed to learn how to sync

I've read the Andy Ruff article as well as everything else I could find.
I'm coming to the realization that I can only using iCal as a calendar
function if I want to sync.
I need the complexity of Entourage's client management system and project
tracking that iCal doesn't have.
If it is in fact impossible to sync Entourage calendars, could someone
please tell me what my other options are? Do I need to get a hand-held
device and do the fire wire thing every evening or what?

Three quick things to share:
* Conversion time of my 1.5GB database file was about an hour. New and old
files are same size.
* Entourage has already locked up.
* Calendar only shows about 8 hours per column/day. I need to see 12-14
hours to get a quick overview of any day. If there's a pref then I have not
found it.
* The interface is very attractive. First Microsoft product to come remotely
close to the pleasing aesthetic of OS X. WTG MS!
