The Entourage Conduit doesn't sync any email messages whatsoever. It doesn't sync mail. (There is a 3rd-party add-on which can do so and lets you specify which of a few folders you want to sync.) It syncs contacts, calendar events, tasks and notes. You can turn any of those off if you wish. You can also choose to sync items of only one category, or to exclude items of one category if you wish. There are also some limitations (relating to the older Palm OS 4 software but still applies to new Palms like yours. Only one postal address per contact. No categories for calendar events.) > > Is there any way to select what gets sync'd? Yes. See above. > And will pictures in Entourage > sync with the Palm or do you have to make that work some other way? Pictures? What pictures? The only pictures in any of those Entourage items would be in contacts. No, those don't sync. There are completely different applications, nothing to do with Entourage, that let you sync graphics on your computer to Palms, yes. I think the software is built into the Palm but maybe not. Someone else will be able to give more details. > And > just in general, does anyone have any advice at all?

There are some reasons why you might want to consider getting Missing Sync for Palm OS to use instead of the Palm Desktop HotSync engine. -- Paul Berkowitz MVP MacOffice Entourage FAQ Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq/index.html> AppleScripts for Entourage: <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/> PLEASE always state which version of Microsoft Office you are using - **2004**, X or 2001.
