 - New Entourage conduit on the way?? Hi, The following comes from an article on Macobserver.com by Andy Ihnatko about MWSF a couple of weeks ago. It gives some hope that improvements in the Entourage Palm conduit that will resolve some of its current bugs and limitations will be forthcoming in the latter part of 2005. "I did wind up with an iPod Shuffle, though. A day later, I was in another conference room, winding up my briefing with Microsoft. They didn't have a whole lot to share. They'd issued a very nifty upgrade to the Mac edition of MSN Messenger, WERE ABOUT TO RELEASE A NEW SET OF ENTOURAGE SYNC CONDUITS, and were rolling out a new ongoing feature for Mactopia.com which would provide free occupation-specific content and Office templates -- stuff geared towards teachers, contractors, lawyers, candlepin bowling alley owner/operators, etc." See the full piece at: http://www.macobserver.com/columns/ihnatko/2005/20050114.shtml Take care, Steve Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49431

 - Can't Import Old Mail Into New Installment of Entourage I'm helping a friend whose computer crashed and needed a complete reinstallation of everything. I backed up the entire HD and wiped it clean. It's OS 10.3.3. After installing Office X again, I've been trying to import the mail from the old mailboxes into the new ones. I'm used to mail and never use Entourage. I've copied the mbox files into Entourage and found a couple of messages. I found the attachments under MS User Data. I checked and the Database file under user data is 537MB(He had a lot of mail), and I'm assuming that's it, but I can't get it back. Any help is appreciated. Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49422

 - Recreating Account We had an Exchange outage in our company and ever since the restore, Entourage (2004) has been behaving weird. I now have two "Deleted Items" and "Sent Items" folder and while I was composing a message, I suddenly saw that my "Sent Items" folder got emptied. I didn't hit delete or anything, but it simply disappeared. I'm guessing this has got something to do with the outage and rather than attempt to recover, I'd just like Entourage to forget my Exchange account and recreate a new one. So, the question is that if I delete the account, will it delete any emails from my server ? Or will that remain intact ? I'd prefer to delete the account and then re-create it since there's no way for me to just "disable" the old account. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Abhijit Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49411

 - Hijacked Incoming Email Recently I've noticed that all my Entourage inbound emails are being redirected to a third party's address. The particular address is one from which I've received hundreds of spam emails in recent weeks. Once I open an email it sits in Entourage until the next scheduled "send and receive" and just before I receive any inbound mail all my opened emails are then redirected to the third party. My anti-virus software has not picked up on this. Is this spyware at work? Can anyone please recommend a solution? Richard r-fraser@earthlink.net Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49410

 - Mystery Icon, Lost Entourage Preferences I lost my Entourage Database when I tried to re-organise my documents and I dragged my entire dicument file off of the first frame of the Hard Drive onto the desktop. I got an icon of a small white cloud that exploded! Not a good little icon! No Document file. I did a search and found it, not in the trash and placed it on the descktop. Now Entourage , unable to find data it created a new one. Not realising what happend I simply ran an import as I had Exported to a file two days earlier. I got my contacts and some address book info back, but all my preferences, rules, and folders are gone - and I can't find them. I have searched for all other files found in the MUD file and replaced them with ones dated from the 20th, but still no luck. Likewise my mail (two years worth) is gone - but I could have swore I saw the import importing 'Mail' for an extended period! the Database file was 1.2 GIG! Do you think I have a hidden deletion? Is that perhaps the mysterious icon explosion? I had multiple folders, emails and rules - any suggestion as to how to resotre them? HELP! Thanks Todd K Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49409

 - E2004. Refuses to accept password as valid. OWA is okay... This is something that has hit us on a couple of occasions. We've been trying to pinpoint what's wrong here... and now we're close to the assumption that it might just be a small pocket of evil in Entourage 2004... Mac OS 10.3.7 / Entourage 2004 / Exchange 2003 (FE and BE). The problem. One of our users, who has previously been an Outlook:mac user under Mac OS 9, is now using E2004. Since moving to Entourage, this user has found that he is unable to send items, because his password gets rejected. This occurs, in spite of being able to connect to pick up mail, log-in to the domain to pick up his Windows shares as well as being able to connect to his mail through Outlook Web Access. It seems that the first time Entourage polls the mail server (to send and receive items), the password is rejected and from that point on continues to be rejected. Here's a list of what we've tried. Rebuild Entourage database. Uninstall and reinstall Entourage. Completely replaced the Mac G5 with an entirely new build of OS X and apps (inc. Entourage). Re-created the user's domain account (then re-imported email). Tried the user's account on five other Macs. Used a phony account and imported the user's PST. Renamed the user's account. Changed the user's password. Basically, the only thing, out of all the above that worked was: Installed the user's account on a PC. Any ideas what might be the cause of this? It's very trying. As I've mentioned, the user can still connect from his Mac to OWA, but that's no substitute for a real mail client. Paul Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49393

 - Entourage crashes during Import from OE Hello! I hope you can help me. I'm running OE 5 on my G4 (Mac OS 9.2) and I'm trying to cross over to Entourage 2001 in anticipation of purchasing Entourage 2004 for my new G5. I have successfully imported my address book and my accounts into Entourage 2001, but when I try to import my mail messages from OE the import crashes halfway through. I have restarted and tried again three times and I get the same result. In my outbox in OE there is a corrupt message. It doesn't send with my other messages and whenever I click on it to try and delete it, or attempt to drag it into the deleted items folder, OE crashes immediately. I have tried doing a "complex rebuild" of the database; this also crashes the program. I have not tried compacting the database. Maybe this corrupted outbox message is interfering with the import into Entourage, maybe it doesn't. That's what I hope one of you can tell me. Thanks!!!!!

 - If I had a dollar for every Linux box... If I had a dollar for every Linux box, incorrectly set-up as a mail server, that has been in my experience to encounter, I would have made my own modest bid for the entire RedHat Company by now. However, the following just takes the cake, both soundly and comprehensively, and is testament again to the way these MVP people think. Useless... IN REGARDS TO: "Authenticated SMTP" "If your ISP has failed to set up their system properly, it may be that you are not "logged in" to their server unless you Receive Mail. If you find that you can receive mail, and anything you send immediately afterwards does go, while anything you attempt to send half an hour later doesn't, your ISP may be one of those." http://www.entourage.mvps.org/troubleshoot/send_receive/sending_problems.html *** Note the complete lack of accountability; "If your ISP has failed to set up their system properly" ...It's actually called "POP before SMTP", and, notwithstanding it's "work-around" type status, it is still accepted as being a viable paradigm for "Authenticated SMTP" type sending. FACT. Other Mail clients known to work with qmail's "Authenticated SMTP" feature.; Outlook, Outlook Express, Agent, Eudora, Apple Mail & "/usr/bin/mail + shell script". Entourage2004 - bzzzzt! The MVP's have to denounce it as being an ISP error because they don't have an explanation for Entourage not supporting proper "Authenticated SMTP" properly. Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49375

I wrote a document in Word 2004 and merged it with Entourage 2004 as an HTML email. It merges them directly to the outbox.

 - Email: Forwarding results in hosed up HTML rendering I have an annoying issue with HTML-formatted emails that I don't think is normal. When I forward an email that contains a bunch of HTML and graphics, the new, forward message window is stripped of all the formatting and graphics. It's almost un-sendable because it looks terrible and the message is buried in a bunch of HTML code. I'd include a screen shot, but these message boards prohibit it. I know it can't be normal. Any clues how to fix it? I'm simply clicking on the Forward link, and it brings up a new window, the content of which is a mess. Could this be related to the same "right justify" problem that many people here have noted (including me)? Thank you. Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49352

 - Palm sync to two computers (Issue with To Dos not transferring I have (mostly) happily switched to Entourage for syncing my Palm (v4), but I am baffled by the behavior of the To Do list. I have always synced to two computers - an IMac at work and an IBook at home - with no problem. My To Dos though don't transfer from computer to computer properly. They seem to update the Palm at first entry, but then the second computer doesn't recognize the change and make the adjustment. Or I update one on a computer (check it off as done), the update moves to the Palm, but not to the other computer where it continues to show as incomplete. Any recommendations about how to resolve this (other than giving up on the To Do conduit)? Thanks, John Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49351

 - Can Notes be synced to Palm selectively? Hi Folks, I'm a therapist and it is convenient to use Entourage to keep track of client progress notes as well as appointments, contact info, etc. However, there is a security problem having the progress notes synced to my Palm. If the Palm were lost, my clients would have their confidential information at risk. I can set my Palm to always lock itself on when it is turned off, and so everything will stay protected behind a password. However, it would be much nicer just to be able to not sync those note files to the Palm at all. I suppose I could just not sync the Notes at all, but I wonder if there is a better solution. In Outlook I could create a separate note folder that would not sync, but I don't think I can do this in Entourage. Is there some other way to accomplish the same result?

 - Entourage X / Palm Sync Trouble After buying a new Tungsten E, I installed the Palm desktop software and the Entourage Handheld Sync software. Since this new handheld replaces one that died, I changed the "user name" in the "Edit Users" section of the Hotsync menu to correspond with that of my new handheld. My understanding was that the Entourage Handheld Sync software automatically removes the Palm conduits to make way for the Entourage ones, but when I attempt to sync, I get this message: "A conflict in the installed conduits has been detected. To allow synchronization to proceed, use the Conduit Settings dialog to turn off the extra conduits for this user, or drag the extra conduits to the Disabled Conduits folder." Problem is, I see no extra conduits in the Conduit Settings dialog, and I'm not sure where to find the "extra conduits" to drag to the Disabled Conduits folder. Note: I have successfully performed the sync with my office Mac; might there be an issue with trying to sync with two different computers? Might there be a continuing compatibility issue based on the fact that my previous handheld had a different user name? Thanks for your time. Would be mighty grateful for your assistance. Best, Patrick Mac OS 10.3.5 Entourage X Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49338

 - Project Center CALENDAR VIEW I just started using the project center in Office 2004 for the Mac. I am distraught by the fact that both the "overview" and "schedule" taps do NOT display the proper date. Both calendars display dates in the year 2016 and I always manually have to change to today's date. Anybody have any thoughts on this? Very frustrating, I need help. Thanks Loads!

 - Project Center Questions Project center is a very cool feature. I do have a couple of questions: 1. I've noticed that when I subscribe to a calendar it adds the calendar entries to my calendar, which in turn end up on my Palm Pilot when I sync. Is there any way I can simply look at another persons calendar without addiding the entries to my calendar? 2. Failing that, can I filter out Project Center info from my Palm when I sync? Oh yeah, I'm running a G5 iMac with Office 2004 and 10.3.7 if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance. Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49336

 - Major, misterious database disaster Hi. I had a major disaster this morning. Can't understand what happened. Last night, as I use to do, left the computer running with Entourage open so it downloads email every hour and can automatically reply via rules to the several inquiries and newsletter subscriptions I have to manage. This morning everything was OK. I read two or three messages, then quit Entourage and restarted the computer as I do every Saturday. I didn't do anything else nor had any other software running at the time. No error messages, nothing unusual. But when opening Entourage again the identity was EMPTY!. It was even asking me to create a new email account. Messages, contacts, accounts, notes were all gone. I immediately checked to make sure it had opened the right identity. To my horror, the Database file for this identity was only 400K, while it should be at least 50MB or something. I searched the hard drive and the only other Database documents I found were from my other, older identities (2004, 2003, etc.). No 2005 identity but the empty one at 400K. I checked everyone of the other identities just to make sure... They had only the old information. Now, this is a horrible disaster because I have a marketing campaign running for my small business. It was very successful and yesterday I got about 250 messages from clients asking for more information. Since I got too tired, I left 150 messages to manually answer today. Now they are all gone, gone!! Anyone has an idea of what happened? Ideas to recover my information? I've not heard of a problem like this before. Some facts: - I have a backup but it's two weeks old. I need to recover yesterday's email. Unfortunately, because of too much spam, I have leave messages on server disabled. - I'm using Entourage X - Every year I make a new identity to avoid having files grow too big, so my 2005 identity was pretty small, with only about 850 text messages in several folders. - Since I get a lot of spam, I delete it twice a month and rebuild database through typical rebuild. Last rebuild was about ten days ago. Database was in good shape. - I've not written anything to the disc since the problem happened, in the hope a data recovery program could help. I tried with VirtualLab running from another Mac (both connected via firewire) , but to no avail. The only Entourage thing it found was a 18K file. Any ideas are welcomed. This is bad. I feel terrible :( Thanks in advance folks. Andrea. Email: andrea.gonzalez@servicequality.net Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49332

 - changing signature in 2004 OK, I've gotten the message that it is not possible to customize the toolbar in Entourage 2004. So, now I'm looking for a work-around. I frequently go between two signatures when I'm responding to emails. It's a nuisance to have to go to tools>signature to change it. In Entourage X, there was a button on the toolbar that pulled up the different signature files I use. I'm trying to avoid the slow-down of having to use the mouse (and inadvertently using the wrong signature in certain emails). Is there a script that would do this more easily? Or a way I could create a keyboard command to pull up the box where you can change signatures? Thanks. Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49327

 - Delete from server b4 rebuilding database? I was pleased to see that after rebuilding my 2004 Entourage database that it was shrunk by over half. Retrashing old POP messages, however, was not so much fun. So I trust that before rebuilding, one should first delete all messages from POP servers. Thanks in advance.

 - Collecting hotmail messages via Entourage problemo Hi, Forgive me if this is the wrong place for this message, (I'm one of those blasted neophytes) but as of yesterday afternoon retrieval of my hotmail messages via Entourage stopped in both manual or scheduled retrievals and I began getting error messages (-50). Prior to that time I've consistently been able to monitor my hotmail account since setting it up months ago. Nothing happened yesterday that might have precipitated any problems. I have set up a new Entourage account, changed my password in hotmail plus (and reflected that in my Entourage account list), set up a new schedule; all to no avail. I'm running Mac OS X, version 10.3.6 and Entourage:mac 11.1.0. My connection to the internet is fine, I'm on a cable modem and can view my emails online fine. Suggestions?

 - Multiple calendars and Free/Busy Hi -- I posted the message below to the Outlook newsgroup. I may have to do this on a Mac OS X box running Entourage X. I need for one person in Entourage to maintain calendars for up to five people who don't work there. She needs to see free/busy information for these people and schedule appointments between them. I do not -- and will not -- have access to an Exchange server. (The Mac and the Windows 2000 PC are the only PCs in this office.) How can I set this up in Entourage? Thanks, CL Hi -- I have a client on a standalone Windows 2000 Pro box running Outlook 2000. She needs to be able to schedule appointments for several people and keep track of who's available when. This woman schedules all the appointments and is the sole maintainer of these calendars. I created a freebusy folder on her hard drive, created multiple PST files for all the people, and created individual Calendar folders in each of the PST files. I also set up all the people in the woman's Contacts folder, and set up a Free/Busy file location in each Contact in the form file://e:/freebusy/username.vfb. With this setup, I can create appointments on any Calendar, but I can't figure out how to update all the Free/Busy files. In fact, they haven't been created yet (my freebusy folder is empty). What else do I need to do to get this to work properly? Thanks, CL Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49318

 - One assistant, five calendars, standalone Outlook 2000 or Entourage X Hi -- I have a single executive assistant that needs to keep track of calendars for five different people. She has access to either a standalone Windows 2000 computer running Outlook 2000 (IMO), or a standalone Mac OS X computer running Entourage (Office X). She needs to be able to make, cancel and/or modify all the appointments on all the calendars. She needs to be able to track free/busy information between these five calendars. The people that these calendars represent will not (cannot) have access to these calendars. The assistant will print out the calendar and hand it to the appropriate person. There is no chance of putting in an Exchange server here. How do I set this up? Is this best done on the Windows box or on the Mac? Thanks for any and all help, CL Tag: View other Newsgroup Tag: 49317

 - Small font size. I have OS 10.3.7 and Entourage 2004-version 11.1.0. I have used all updates that I could find. I am having trouble with font size in some emails that I receive. 1) I use the edit menu and choose --increase font size. Sometimes this works but not consistently. 2) I have set rules to increase font size. This works sometimes. I used the help website (mvps). I would appreciate suggestions.

Under accounts, simply add the news server details of another service - your
ISP almost certainly provides it's own news server. Then under that server
just subscribe to the newsgroups you are most interested in. I currently
have access to 5 different news server in entourage.
