This is related to your Mac OS preference, but not the time issue. It is
related to your Date Format setting, especially the medium or short
format. Entourage doesn¹t support all types of the format. So sometimes
you will see such errors. Please check it by following steps:
1. Go to International tab in your System preference
2. Select ³Formats² tab
3. check your Dates format.
4. Customer the short and medium format to as similar as the US style.
5. Restart Entourage should show the change.
Thanks
