    - ENTOURAGE 2004 -> Exchange deletes but marks diferently deleted messages?? I use a blackberry server, wich only detects messages deleted on my mailbox when it is done directly via Web Outlook, and not when done via Entourage 2004. When I delete messages with Entourage, it sends them to the deleted messages folder. When I delete the messages directly via Web-Outlook, web outlook sends them also to the deleted messages - same folder - To here everything seems ok, and in fact both Entourage and Exchange work perfectly. In fact if after deleting a mesage with entourage I access my exchange server account via Web-Outlook, the message is stored in the same deleted messages folder as if it was done by Web-Outlook. For some reason, when the deleted proces is done via Entourage or via Exhcange, something is done to the message that this movement is only detected by the Black Berry server if it is done with Exchange, but not if it is done with Entourage. Is it possible that Entourage follows a diferent procedure to delete the message via OWA than doing it directly to the Exhange Server. This would explain why the deletion of the message is not detected by Blackberry server. Many Thanks Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58461

    - Problems with Entourage Project Groups & Printing After installing the recent update, things have gone haywire with Entourage. First of all, my calendar no longer color-codes my project assignments, task, etc. The color codes still exist when I look at individual projects but when I go for the "big picture" under calendar, the colors are all gone, and all tasks are showing up in black font. Second, I tried printing the calendar anyways so I could at least have my events for the week printed up, and I keep getting errors, resulting in auto-shutdown of Entourage. Here is the cut and paste for part of the error msg: Error Signature: Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS Date/Time: 2005-09-25 22:42:24 -0700 HELP! I would delete Entourage and reload the original but my cousin has the CDRom since we bought a family pack to install it and she has since moved to another city.

    - Plugins that let you do nested tasks, or put your project tasks in order? Does anyone know of any updates, anywhere, that will allow you to do this? All I want to do is organize my (massive) task list and this program won't even allow you to change task order or nest your lists. Outlook does this. You can even do it in MS Word or Excel by dragging a table row to a different position. I like everything else about Entourage, but without the ability to do this, the program is rendered nearly useless, to me. Which is frustrating because I really want to use it. What good is it if you can't put basic tasks in order, to do task 1, then task 2, in a project? Thirty tasks out of order look pretty overwhelming. Does anyone know of any plugins or similar that will help me solve this problem? I wrote to Microsoft some time ago about this but have never heard anything else about it. I suspect the suggestion went into a big hole. This seems pretty basic to good design of a program designed to manage people's planning. I am hoping someone at Microsoft has noticed this and created a fix. Without this the program is unusable to me. Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58447

    - Exchange IS Stops after Entourage SP2 The following was also posted in the Microsoft Private Partner newsgroups. I post it here in the event that others are having similar problems with the Exchange Information Store. ----- Hello, Admittedly I don't have all my facts yet, but I am certain that the latest SP for Entourage, along with Exchange SP1, are somehow causing major problems with the Information Store in Exchange 2003. As long as there are no users connecting to Exchange with Entourage, there are no problems with Exchange. As soon as a user opens Entourage and attempts to perform any function related to permissions (such as opening a shared calendar), Exchange generates errors. It frequently shuts down the Information Store service which usually can be restarted without rebooting the server. I am concerned, however, that the Information Store will become corrupted. I can reproduce this on two different Windows Small Business Server 2003 platforms. If there is a bug, then Information Stores everywhere are vulnerable. Mind you, this did not start until after the Entourage SP2 update and the associated service packs it requires were installed on Exchange. We applied, in the following order, these patches: Entourage SP2 on MAC OS 10.3 [At this point we had some authentication issues] Exchange SP1 [Authentication issues went away, and now the IS shuts down randomly] KB888619 to Exchange Server 2003 [IS shuts down when activity related to permissions is attempted, but not always - still researching this] Windows Server 2003 SP1 [No change] KB843539 to SBS2003 Standard Edition [No change] These errors are always reproduced in the following sequence: Event Type: Warning Event Source: WinMgmt Event ID: 5603 User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM A provider, PerfProv, has been registered in the WMI namespace, ROOT\CIMV2\MicrosoftHealthMonitor\PerfMon, but did not specify the HostingModel property.

Ensure that provider has been reviewed for security behavior and update the HostingModel property of the provider registration to an account with the least privileges possible for the required functionality.

Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeIS Event ID: 9542 Initialization of external interface CDO SERVER failed; Error ecVersionMismatch-MAPI_E_VERSION. Microsoft needs to get it together on the Entourage product. The inequality with Outlook 9 for Mac, and the network connection reliability between Entourage and Exchange Server 2003, have been awful. The updates are too few and far between, and the regression testing appears to be lacking. David Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58438

    - Entourage will not work after update Just updated to service pack 2 and when I start Entourage 2004 it shows that it updating identy. I then get a message that "Microsoft Database Daemon has encountered a problem...." The next window says "Entourage cannot access your data. To attempt to fix the problem, rebuild database" I have verified the original it appears to be valid. I have also rebuilt the data base and tried using it with the same error message. Does anyone have advice? Is there a way to roll back the update? I also have problems while trying out the other apps like Word. Thanks.

    - Corrupt Attchments If this has been covered before (I am sure it has been) please forgive another question on this issue. I sugscribed to this group a week ago and checked all posts in case it was a raging issue, but was surprised to see that there was nothing on the subject. Since the upgrade to Tiger, all attachments from Entourage to a mail recipient get corrupted. Cheking the net... there seem a lot of similar complainst, some of which were attributed to Little Snitch (who released a patch to supposedly correct this), but having installed the patch, there is no improvement. Does anyone know the solution to this? Is there light on the horizon? I have reverted to using Mail to send anything with an attachment, but it is frustrating to work between two packages. Any help hugely appreciated. Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58425

    - Entourage will send but not receive. I have been using Entourage for a few years. I recently began havin some problems on both my g4 tower and my g4 powerbook. The powerboo version of Entourage no longer receives or sends any mail --offering a error code of 3000 something. The most problematic now is my deskto version not being able to receive. I've checked all of the accoun settings and verified them again with my ISP. The error code is 7010 Anyone have a clue? P.S. has anyone ever uninstalled Entourage? I'm thinking perhaps I' like to try to export the folders for safe keeping then reinstall th software on both laptop and desktop as a "final fix" attempt. What i the proceedure- simply trash "everything Entourage"? I dunno, does thi make sense as a fix or is there something less drastic and mor efficient?

    - SP2 Screwed up Entourage? Dual 2 GHz G5 OS 10.4.2 Microsoft Office 2004 Entourage 2004 v11.2.0 I routinely allow Microsoft Office to check for updates and go ahead an install these, because they are almost always small bug fixes (that I had often not even encountered). Well, the last update that came down has managed to completely screw up my Entourage (I don't really use the other office product very much, whereas I use Entourage non-stop). First of all, I encountered several problems while the update was trying to update my data file. It kept failing and wanting to start over. I finally had to rebuild the database, and then the update went through. The major change in this update is better compatibility with Exchange servers, and on that front, I actually see a huge improvement, because it seems like Entourage for Mac is finally a better Exchange client and we are now able to see all public folders, and calendars, address books, etc. However at least a few things have been broken since the update, and I am trying to see if it is just me, or if anyone else can verify these: 1. This is not so much a bug as it is a mini heart attack in waiting! During the update, apparently all of your contacts and calendar events get moved to the exchange server (obviously this only happens if you are connected to an exchange server). So instead of these records being in your local contact and calendar database, they are now accessed through the exchange server versions that are created for you. That's not such a big deal except that there was no warning about this. So when I launched Entourage after the update, it seemed like I had lost all my data in those areas. But they are all there. Just moved to a different location. Although this still seems confusing, because now we have 2 locations for calendar events and contacts. 2. Drag and drop is broken! I used to be able to drag a task or a an email onto the calendar and create events out of them. This was a great tool, as that is how I set up my appointments, etc. This no longer works. Although the calendar gets highlighted and it looks like you should be able to do this, when you let go of the task you dragged on top of the calendar, nothing happens. There are scripts to let you do this, but dragging and dropping was far easier and quicker. 3. Window preferences do not seem to stick. I have 3 windows open when I am working with Entourage: 1 Main window for email on the left the full height of the screen and then I have 2 smaller half height windows stacked on tope of each other on the right, with one displaying tasks and the last displaying my workweek calendar. Every time I quit out of Entourage and come back in, the views and location of the 3 windows on the change. I have thrown away all my preferences, etc., and it does not seem to help. I remember back a few years ago, it seemed like if you had Internet Explorer open, then the preferences file was not getting written to, so in order to make changes stick, you had to quit out of IE first and make the changes and then quit the program to make sure the preferences were modifies and then you were good. This seem similar to that expect that I don't use IE anymore. Anyone has any comments on these issues? Thank you. Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58406

    - SP2 Bug: Entourage 2004 not saving window state properly My system: Entourage 2004 SP2 on Mac OS X 10.4.2. I use Entourage with 3 separate windows open: Mail, Tasks, and Calendar. Entourage is normally good about remembering my open windows, as well as their positions on the screen. However, the introduction of SP2 introduced a new bug whereby Entourage will replace my Tasks and Calendar window with two over-lapping Address Book windows. (That is, it only remembers the state of the Mail window, and forgets the position information for one of my windows). Here's how to replicate this bug: 1. Make sure 3 separate windows in Entourage are open: Mail, Tasks and Calendar. Position each window differently on the screen. (You can right click on the icons that correspond to these functions to open them in new windows.) 2. Close Entourage and reopen. The windows should be just as you left them. 3. Now create a new mail message and save it as a draft. 4. Close Entourage and reopen. The Tasks and Calendar window should now be replaced by Address Book windows which will likely be positioned identically on the screen. Can anyone else replicate this bug? I really appreciate the fact that Entourage remembers the state of the application when I close it, and I would love for that to continue into the future.

    - How to transfer email info from Outlook on PC to Entourage on a Mac? I'd like to help a colleague here who recently swtiched from PC to a brand-new iBook running Tiger. She wants to move her email (mail and addresses) from Outlook (version unknown, but probably recent) to Entourage. (I'm assuming that's from Office X.) I checked on my Entourage Help and could find how to do that going via a MS Exchange Server. My guess would be that she wasn't using Exchange via a server, but only on her desktop PC. Assuming that's the case, is there any Plan B for how she could transfer her Outlook data into Entourage? - Dennis Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58365

    - Failure to Deliver when sending to .co.jp or .co.kr addresses I have been struggling with this problem for some time now. Configuration: Entourage 2004 10.4.2 connecting through Exchange 2000 Whenever I send an e-mail to addresses that end in @seh.co.jp and sometimes when I send an e-mail to addresses that end in @lg.co.kr I get a "Delivery Failed" message from the recievers host. If I send the identical message through: Outlook 2003/Windows XP/Virtual PC 7.0.2/10.4.2 connected to the same Exchange server, the messages are delivered without any problems. I don't seem to have any other problems with any other e-mails... Any ideas? cwsheen Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58311

    - Project colored dots disappeared with SP2 I had updated to SP2 and everything was fine with Entourage (sort of). Now, suddenly and without warning, the colored dots that appeared on calendar events that were linked to a project have disappeared. The space for the dot, however, is still there. Other strange goings on: If I choose "Projects", the large window showing the names of the projects has each project in the color that it was assigned. However, in the small panel on the left, the projects in the heirarchial menu are not colored (before they were). Can someone please help?????

    - Can't Establish a Delegate We just upgraded to SP2 and basically it is running great with the exception of a couple of minor glitches. Applying upgrades to the Exchange server fixed all of them but one. I can't designate someone as a delegate. Once I select a person as a delegate and click ok, I get this error message: Entourage cannot connect to the Exchange server. Make sure that your password was entered correctly and try again. (Error: 65486) The fact is, I know I am connected and my password is entered correctly because I can do everything else in Entourage. I can also give someone access to my calendar or e-mail by setting the permissions in the folder properties. This happens on any computer on our network, so it is either a setting on our Exchange server or an overall glitch in SP2. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    - Still no booking of resources in SP2 I really disappointed that SP2 still doesn't help Mac users book resources on the Exchange server. This is getting a little tiring.

    - IMAP account and seeing Address Book in Public Folders I am running 10.4.2 and have upgraded Office 2004 with the latest service pack. We have Exchange 2003. I have been told to set up an IMAP account to access Exchange Server, which is working fine. However, I cannot see the address book we have in a public folder on the server as an address book. I can see the address book in the mail view but all the adresses appear as emails and have no content. I have subscribed to the relevant public folder. Does anyone have any clues about this. I'm stumped. Bruce Tag: Entourage SP2 - Calendar updating taking hours Tag: 58277

    - Views changed in preview pane? After updating to SP 11.2 I noticed a change in viewing preferences in the preview pane: for mail I prefer to "view on right"; for news, however, I still prefer the traditional "below list." After updating, if I change the viewing preference, it will affect both news and mail views (whereas previously these had separate preferences). Further complicating the issue: in Mail views (ie by Category, priority, flagged, etc) I can still "view on right." Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

After installing SP2 I just connected to our exchange server where I have
3-4 years worth of calendar data. It appears that all of the data has been
transferred to my computer but the synchronizing progress bar has been
active for about 3 hours now. It simply says = "Now Updating Calendar" and
it it taking about 40% of my CPU. Does this ever stop? Is this normal?

Well it took a good 5 hours, but the calendar sync finally finished. It
appears to be correct although the calendar lost the category information I
had assigned to the items in the SP1 release.

Did Microsoft release any documentation which enumerates the changes in
Entourage and the Exchange server interface between SP1 and SP2?

Not a big surprise unfortunately. Exchange does not hold the group
information so when you import anything from it, it comes without any
group attribution.
You'll lose the attribution again if ever you need to delete the
Excahgne cache and force Entourage to re-download the data...
