Disappearing Folders List

2008-08-19 Thread Carol F. Bruml
I have three separate accounts/users set up in Entourage. In all three, the
windows should appear with the Folder List at the left and the Preview Pane
below the list of messages.

However, in my primary account ONLY, for the past two days, the Folders List
part of the window keeps disappearing, and often won't reappear when I go to
View and uncheck then re-check it in the options. I have to restart
Entourage, or once, even restart the computer to get it back.

I did verify the database last night, and it said everything is working
correctly, so I did not do a rebuild.

Any ideas?

Carol

How to retain categories in Calendar backups

2008-08-19 Thread Kenneth Taylor
Hello Colleagues,

Can anyone suggest a solution?

I regularly archive my CONTACTS and CALENDAR. When I restore these CONTACTS
retain Categories but my CALENDAR does not. Is there a way to make backups
of my CALENDAR that retains the Category information?

Last update applied: Thursday 7 August 2008 17

Microsoft Entourage.app: 12.1.2
Mac OS X 10.5.4 (9E17)

 Now if I could just turn off all notifications from Entourage so iCal was
 the only thing notifying me, I'd be all set on this.
 
 Notifications/Reminders can be quit under Entourage in the Menu bar. Be sure
 the Microsoft Database daemon is not running and that you remove it from
 startup items.

H, this is a strange one. I don't ever remember this coming up before so
we will just have to use troubleshooting techniques to find a solution.

1. Look at your physical drive. How full? Have you run DiskWarrior or
DiskFirstAid lately?

2. Try applying the latest Apple combo. Doing so overwrites potentially
problem-causing files. Several users have reported this fixed some odd
problems they were having with Entourage. Combo updaters will install on the
same version as they¹re applying‹no need to roll back or do a clean install.

Leopard:

Mac OS X 10.5.4 Combo Update
 (For both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macs )
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1054comboupdate.html

Tiger:

Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (PPC)
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateppc.html

Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (Intel)

http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411updateintel.html

If the combo did not solve your problem then continue.

3. Eliminate your User's folder by testing in a new User. Move your
Microsoft User Data folder to shared, then drag (it actually copies) it into
the Documents folder of a new User. Go to System Preferences -- Create a
New User in Accounts. Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast
User Switching. Remember to move your Microsoft User Data folder back after
testing.

If the problems go away in the new User, then it's in your User's folder. If
it does not go away, then you would need to create a new Identity and enter
all account info to test if it really is your Identity or try rebuilding. If
you decide to rebuild, make a backup copy first. The rebuild process does a
copy, but rarely things go wonkers and the backup is bad leaving you without
a working Identity.

Let us know what you find.

[ANN] The Entourage Help Blog: Add week numbers to the Entourage calendar

2008-08-19 Thread William Smith
Entourage 2008 users who rely on week numbers know that only one calendar
view shows the actual week number -- it only appears on the 7-day Week
calendar. I've written an AppleScript to add week numbers to the first
Sunday of every week of the chosen year so that we can see week numbers in
the monthly calendar view too, where I find them more useful.
