 - So far... here's what is working with exchange and here is what is not working Email messages seem to sync up fine (which I must say is WONDERFUL since I work on a laptop half the day and a tower the other half): If I send a message from one machine, it shows up as sent mail on the other machine. bravo. If I receive a message on one machine, I receive it on the other. bravo. If I view a message on one machine, it shows up as viewed on the other. bravo. If I delete a message from my INBOX on one machine, it gets deleted on the other. bravo. *BUT* if I delete a message from my Sent Items folder on one machine, it does *not* get deleted on the other. boo hiss. Is this a bug, or is there any way to fix this. Unfortunately, calendar and contacts are not syncing at all. In fact, the calendar and contacts folders under my main exchange account folder just look like email folders. How is this supposed to work? Is there supposed to be a calendar and contact folder inside my exchange account folder? How do I get contacts into it? I think like many people, I use a MAC even though my IT department doesn't "support" it. Therefore, they aren't much help. Do I need to enter the proper LDAP server for calendar and contact exchanging to work? What is LDAP? Any info would be greatly appreciated. I know this is new, but, Microsoft doesn't typically release quick bug fixes, do they? Dave Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25467

 - <no subject> I just installed the Entourage update. The e-mail (IMAP) works very well - sending and receiving. My calendar and contacts on my exchange account do not synch with my computer. Any ideas? Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25465

 - exchange minimum requirements... I suspect that most of us who are having problems with the calendar and contacts functionality after the Office 10.1.4 update are in environments that use versions of Exchange earlier than (the minimum) Exchange 2000 SP3. I believe (pending confirmation from my sysadmin) that we're running 5.5 SP4. In a previous job, i think we used a more recent version and with previous releases of Entourage, I at least could accept/decline a meeting request, something I can't do now in a different place of employment. Has anyone gotten the calendar and contacts stuff to work with Exchange 2000 SP3 and later? I don't quite understand why this is a minimum requirement, when the classic version of Outlook (2001 and earlier) worked fine with older versions of Exchange. Shame this was not highlighted by MS-I think everyone was expecting things to worrk reasonably well after this update and, while most are no worse off than before, for many companies running 5.5 SP4, they are no better either. The fact is that a lot of firms run older versions of Exchange-they are NOT going to upgrade just to please Mac users in many cases. Quite a shame-almost as if MS figured this release might spur upgrades to the latest version of Exchange. I hope that is not the case, but it makes one wonder...

 - Update and Exchange 2k3, anyone? I've seen a lot of people that have had issues with the latest update and Exchange 2000. I will be setting up a test lab tomorrow using Exchange 2003, has anyone tried the entourage update with Exchange 2k3? I'll post more after I get it up and running (or not running as seems to be the more prevalent). /Jeff Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25448

 - Entourage and Exchange Server? I admit, I am a total clueless when it comes to Microsoft or PC's. I am the owner of a small business with 8 Apple computers, all with Entourage. Is the only way for us to share contacts, see calendars, etc. to buy a PC, with Microsoft Windows and an Exchange Server? I was excited about the possibility of sharing, but didn't know I would have to buy a new computer and exchange software. Does anyone know if Microsoft plans to have some kind of exchange server program for a Mac? Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25444

 - Deleting Messages in Entourage Is there a way when deleting messages to bypass the Deleted Items folder? When I was using Outlook, I could bypass the Deleted Items folder by holding down the shift key when I pressed the Delete key. I have a folder set up to received junk mail, and when I delete the items, I don't want them to go to my Deleted Items folder, I just want them GONE!

 - Cannot rebuild Entourage database after update I have applied the 10.1.4 Office update. Subsequently I wanted to rebuild the Entourage database to see if doing so would resolved a problem with my deleted items mailbox getting out of step. I got the following message: To rebuild the database quit all other Microsoft Office programs and try again. I didn't have any other MS Office programs running. I tried logging out and in again and then rebooting but I still get the same message. I cannot say for certain that this a result of the upgrade but I have in the past been able to rebuild the database. Anyone else seeing the same problem? regards Bob Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25432

 - Office / Entourage X pathetic offering What is up with this update? Microsoft has been promising for months that the update due this summer would have Exchange functionality. http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2003/Feb03/02- 11ExchangeSolutionPR.asp I can't even think of a more pathetic excuse of a product update. I've been using Entourage for months just for it's ability to send/receive email via IMAP and SMTP. This update doesn't give me any more functionality. If this is really "The single most popular request we've heard since launching Office v. X is that our customers need an Exchange solution for Mac OS X ...," why did Microsoft even release this if it does not work??? Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25425

 - [ANNOUNCE] Google Problem It appears that for some unknown reason, it is now impossible to post from Google to many of the Microsoft newsgroups. If you try, you get a variation on this: "Google Groups does not currently support posting to microsoft.public.mac.office.word". We have no idea why this is happening (nor does Microsoft) but perhaps we can get it fixed if we all post to <groups-support@google.com> and ask for an explanation and a resolution. Even if you don't access the newsgroups via Google, you could help those users who do and there are many by posting such a message. Thanks to all who take the time to help. Please note that you can bypass Google (or other web access methods) by setting up Entourage or Outlook Express to act as a newsreader. Here's how: 1. In the Entourage (or OE) Folders list, click on the Microsoft News Server icon. Click OK when asked if you want the newsgroups to download. (If the Microsoft News Server icon does not appear in your folder list, see here: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/help/start.html#Anchor-newsgroup>) 2. Once the list of newsgroups downloads, use the "Display newsgroups containing" box at the upper right to search on "mac" (no quotes). That will bring up all the Macintosh newsgroups. The current Mac groups for Office applications begin like this: microsoft.public.mac.office followed by .word or .excel or .entourage, etc. Select a newsgroup you're interested in and click Subscribe on the menu bar. The newsgroup will now display in bold and you will also find it in the folder list below the Microsoft News Server Icon. If you don't see it, click the arrow to the left of the server icon to expand the list of subscribed newsgroups. 3. Now click on any subscribed newsgroup in the folder list (or double-click from the preview pane) and it will open, downloading your quota of message headers. (You can change the number of downloaded headers in Tools/Accounts/News/Microsoft News Server/Options.) 4. Click on any header and the message body will download into the Preview Pane. Click the Reply to Newsgroup button to reply to the displayed message or the New button to start a new thread. -- Beth Rosengard Mac MVP Mac Word FAQ: <http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/WordMac/index.html> Entourage Help Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/toc.html> Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25415

 - Exchange Synchronisation Hi, Anyone got the new exchange synchronisation to work yet? The e-mail is working fine. The Calendar directory looks like an e-mail folder, so instead of loading into the calendar, it comes up as if it were a list of e-mails. Is anyone else getting this?

 - Office X 10.1.4 "Update" This update (specifically addressing exchange compatibility) is disappointing to say the least. This "update" has less functionality than Outlook 2001. My organization uses Exchange 2000 Service Pack 3 and with this "release" we are still condemned to the use of Outlook 2001 for a Mac client running OS X for everything else. Microsoft Entourage X 10.1.4: 1. lacks the ability Windows Outlook has of retrieveing deleted messages erased from the deleted items folder. 2. does not retrieve Calendar scheduling data properly, resulting in vague Error messages. 3. does not allow the clients to make a change to their password. 4. does not allow clients to open Public Folders...Public Folders is a huge resource in our organization. The public folder icon is present in the mailbox, but with a padlock on it. As administrator for almost 200 Macs in a corporate environment, I can't overstate the dismay over this product. What changed between this and the beta product we criticized for the same reasons. Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25398

 - "Upgrading" existing IMAP connection to Exchange I'm having some limited luck getting the Exchange integration working. One thing I would like is to be able to change or link an existing IMAP mail address to an Exchange address. I'm currently on a slow connection that will take a very long time to download my messages. Since they have already been downloaded using an existing IMAP entry, I'd like to link the existing account to a new Exchange account. Is this possible, even if it requires editting files manually?

 - Entourage calendar and exchange do not sync I just installed the Exchange update for Entourage, and can't get the calendar to sync. I have items in my Entourage calendar and would like them to go over to the exchange server, and then setup items in Outlooks calendar and they do not show up in Entourage except for when I go into the folder for my exchange account I can see a list of calendar events, and the one I added in Outlook shows up. It doesn't however show up in the calendar in Entourage. I have deleted and recreated the account twice now, so the settings should be correct. Has anyone been able to get it to work?

 - Problems receiving POP mail--Please help! I'm trying to get Entourage X to retrieve my POP mail properly. Every time I do a "Send and Receive," Entourage insists on retrieving ALL 700+ messages in the Inbox of my Web-based account, instead of just the new ones. (When I did my very first "Send and Receive," I went through the process of downloading all 700+ e-mails onto my local computer. Doesn't Entourage realize that all those e-mails have been received already? I even tried moving them out of the Inbox into a new folder I named "Old Inbox", and Entourage still keeps trying to retrieve them.) Then, it throws ALL the mail from my Inbox into the Trash folder on my Web-based account instead of leaving a copy on the server, like it's supposed to. (Under "Tools>Accounts" for this POP Web-based account I've set up the Entourage options "to leave a copy of each message on the server" and to "delete messages from the server" after they are deleted from my local computer.) Adding insult to injury: When I delete a received POP message from my local computer, it doesn't delete that same message from my Web- based POP account, like it's supposed to. My settings must be okay because my local computer CAN send and receive mail from and to my Web-based account; it's just not listening to the preferences I set up under Tools>Account>Edit Account>Options. Why is it doing this? So obnoxious! Any ideas! Thank you!! Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25354

 - Deleting Messages in Inbox I've been using Entourage on the Mac for a few months. I had been using Outlook on the PC for many years now. One of the things that is driving me nuts, is that when I delete a message, Entourage automatically highlights the message ABOVE the deleted message, and not the next message. Is there anyway I can change that setting? Thanks for any help you can provide! John Burdick Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25352

 - Form Mail data put into excel spreadsheet OK, I need some help. I would even be willing to hire someone to help me with this project. I have a few forms set up on my web site, they use the basic formmail script. The data gets e-mailed to me, I then respond to the e-mail, and file the e-mail in a folder in Entourage. Now I have a few thousand messages, and need to some how get this info into a spreadsheet so I can keep that data. For example. One main form that is used, which can be viewed @ http://LBDSL.com/availablity.html , has phone number name, e-mail, address info. I need this info put into a spreadsheet. I found a program called Mail Convert 2.5.4 on apple's web site that is supposed to do the exact thing I want, but I can't get it to work. If some one can even just get this to work for me that would be great. Any help would be great. Thanks Brent Waldrep bwaldrep@LBTech.net http://LBTech.com Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25349

I just tried this with someone who sent me a bunch of questions. I made sure I was in html mode, and used the color selector.

 - Entourage X rebuild problems (I also posted this on the Entourage-Talk mailing list. I hope this is OK.) The Problem: I am having a serious problem with my mail database. I cannot access the data and rebuilding does not work. To make things worse the last backup was made on June 13th, which I hate to admit. There has been important mail communication since then which I would really, really hate to loose. Therefore, I would be most thankful for any help on how to solve my problem! The Details: I am running the latest version of Entourage X on Mac OS X 10.2.6 with Office v. X 10.1.3. My database is already fairly big, it has 2.28 GB (2.453.017.424 Bytes). I read that the maximum size can be 4 GB so it should still work. Three days ago Entourage stopped working. On starting it shows the following error, without an error number: "Accessing the data is not possible. Perhaps the problem can be solved by rebuilding the database." After pressing OK I get: "To rebuild the database quit all other Microsoft Office applications and try it again." (I am translating these from German so the English error messages probably are somewhat different.) I did not find the error on http://www.entourage.mvps.org. I quit Entourage X and start a Typical Rebuild. I see a progress bar from 0 to 10220, probably the total number of my mails. After 1 minute progress is on 200. There it stays around 5 minutes. The new database grows to 3.23 GB. I checked that in the Finder. After 9 minutes I get the following error, again without an error number: "The database could not be rebuilt, because there is not enough space left to create the new database files." Actually, I have 15.7 GB of free space on the hard disk. I assume that the 4 GB limit was reached. When I look in the Finder the new database was deleted again and I still have my database with 2.28 GB. I tried an Advanced Rebuild. First it does some preparation, the progress bar goes from 0 to 10220. Then it does compaction. The progress bar from 0 to 10220 is on 1400 after 1 minute. There it says for quite some time. The new database grows from 1 GB to 3.9 GB (4.193.139.408 bytes) in 11 minutes. After 13 minutes the progress moves from 1400 to 2700. After 14 minutes I get the following message: "The database was rebuilt. The old versions of the database files were renamed to Old Database and Old Database Cache. They can be moved to the trash." After pressing OK I get: "The storage limit of the Entourage database was reached. The Entourage database can save up to 4 Gigabyte (GB) of information. This limit is now reached. Compact the database by doing a Typical Rebuild." The new database has 4 GB (4.294.967.280 Bytes, 16 bytes less than the full 4 GB). Entourage prompts me for a rebuild. I do a Typical Rebuild again. It starts compacting the database, again from 0 to 10220. It stays at 1300 for 13 minutes. Then there is a second progress bar named "compacting and optimizing email" from 0 to 1288. After 14 minutes the following message is shown: "The database was rebuilt. The old versions of the database files were renamed to Old Database and Old Database Cache. They can be moved to the trash." Entourage X opens but does not show my identity but the main identity. When I switch to my identity I get the message: "The storage limit of the Entourage database was reached. The Entourage database can save up to 4 Gigabyte (GB) of information. This limit is now reached. Compact the database by doing a Typical Rebuild." The database has now 3.99 GB (4.292.677.552 bytes). I tried doing a Typical Rebuild again without success. When I open Entourage X I get the message: "The storage limit of the Entourage database was reached. The Entourage database can save up to 4 Gigabyte (GB) of information. This limit is now reached. Compact the database by doing a Typical Rebuild." Then it prompts me to do a rebuild. If I say cancel I get the follwing error message, without an error number: "Error during startup. Message error." The questions: 1. Why does the rebuild try to grow my database from 2.28 GB to 4 GB so that the storage limit is reached? 2. Why does it say there is too little space on my disk if I have 15.7 GB free? 3. Does anyone have an idea what else I could try? 4. Can anyone please provide me documentation about the file format of the Entourage X database? I am a programmer myself and could write a program to save my mails if I had this information. 5. What might be the reason for the first error message in the first place? ("Accessing the data is not possible. Perhaps the problem can be solved by rebuilding the database.") I did not make any unusual observations like message errors before. The speculations: I wildly guess that there is some error in the rebuild. Maybe there is some corrupt message so that Entourage reads over its end and thinks it is huge. The rebuild staying that long at one place and the database growing to almost twice the size seems to support that assumption. Perhaps the actual limit for the Entourage X database is not 4 GB but actually somewhere at 2 GB due to the design of the rebuild process. In this case it should be documented. The pledge: I would be really, really thankful if someone could provide me information to fix this problem and get to my emails. If you need some additional information from me or want me to try out things I will gladly do that. If you can provide me with test programs which check my database for certain error conditions I am willing to run them.

 - Junk mail filter overzealous I'm running Entourage X on OS 10.1.5. When I receive new mail that I've sent to myself, it goes straight into the Deleted Items folder. Actually, many messages that are not junk go into Deleted Items, even though I've set a rule for junk mail to go into a junk mail folder. Any ideas? Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25289

 - Missing entourage folders Comrades: I was forced to reinstall OS 10.2.6 and Microsoft Office X recently. This seems to have deleted all of my personal folders in Entourage (the folders listed under "on my computer" in the folder pane). I backed up my hard drive before restalling the above software and the reinstall created a folder on my hard drive called "previous systems" that contains most of the previous, relevant files. Can anyone tell me where my folders have gone--searching for them by name does not produce any hits. Thank you. Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25286

 - Changing keyboard layout / input type stops spell checking Hello, I have recently acquired a Polish language spelling dictionary for Office X, which installs nicely into the standard location for dictionaries in "Shared Applications." In Word, this dictionary works beautifully, but in Entourage a strange problem emerges. In Entourage, when I write using the US keyboard layout, I can spell check fine using either the English (UK) or Polish dictionaries (but this latter part isn't very useful, since Polish contains Central European font characters). When I switch the Input Type to Polish, so I can write Polish words correctly, whatever I type is ignored by the spell checker, using any dictionary. It's as if the spell checker simply does not see any text entered using the Polish Input Type. Any ideas on how I can get the spell checker to recognise text entered using the Polish Input Type, so I can actually use the Polish dictionary to check Polish spelling? Thanks a lot -- it's fantastic that this newsgroup is so active! Best, Jan Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25276

 - Crashing like crazy Entourage is just crashing like crazy. I did a typical rebuild. Didn't seem to help. Which preferences should I trash. I would prefer not to affect my Explorer preferences. There used to be a navigation preference to trash is that around still? Any other ideas appreciated. Thanks! Kevs Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25259

 - Purging old newsgroup postings? Hello all--is there a way for me to delete old newsgroup postings in Entourage X? I've tried selecting and pressing Delete and Cmd-Delete, but the "Delete Message" and "Delete Thread" options are greyed-out in the "Edit" menu. I appreciate the pointers, but I'd hate to have my hard drive slowly fill up with messages that I don't need any more....? David Tag: Palm Conduit 10.1.4 Problems Tag: 25251

 - "An error occurred while launching" Entourage won't launch, I get the following message: An error occurred while launching. The "Entourage Temp" folder could not be found. It is likely that you have a file with the same name or an alias that doesn't point to a folder. I've tried reinstalling Entourage - same message before and after.

Earlier today I installed Office 10.1.4 along with the Palm Conduit
10.1.4. Later I opted to delete Office 10.1.4 since I was having font
problems when sending to an Outlook Express for Windows user (HTML font
encoding seems to have problems in that the font displayed on OE is very
small). Now that I've reinstalled Office and applied the 10.1.2 update,
I can no longer sync my Palm. During the hotsync it seems that the
Entourage conduit is being invoked, but no information is exchanged.
Also, I'm now unable to view the Entourage conduit settings in the
HotSync Manager. When you double click on conduit entry, the dialog box
does not open.

I'm desperate! Any clues?

Problem solved. It seems that there are HotSync support files in the
Office X applications folder in addition to the actual Entourage
Conduit. Once I ran the installer all seems to work OK.
