End of File
Hi, I'm getting a strange error these days when I try to download or send any file over a couple hundred K. When sending such a file, just as encoding ends an error message End of file (this is actually just a close translation, since I'm using the Japanese version of the program) appears. When downloading a file, this error message appears at the very end, too. What is even more curious is that if I switch to a different identity on the same Entourage on the same computer, these problems disappear. Any ideas? (I'm running Entourage on 10.1, if that makes any difference. These problems appeared a couple weeks after making the switch, though, so I doubt they can be laid at the door of 10.1.)

Re: Mail List/Rules Report Feature?
On or near 10/25/01 9:55 AM, Greg Hammond at [EMAIL PROTECTED] observed: In Claris Emailer, the app generated a running report of all the messages it filed away for you. If I did not get to check my mail because I was in a meeting, this report--really just a message in the main InBox--would be continuously updated. Once I opened it to learned what had happened with all my mail, it would start creating a new edition of the report. This way, there was always a single place I could go to check what happened to all my mail. I have not been able to find a similar feature in Erage, and so, I have to check each folder for new messages. I am probably missing something pretty simple here. You are basically correct. There is no Auto File Log. Custom Views help, but Received Since Launch, for instance, gets replaced each time you launch; you can't go back and look at the last couple if you didn't finish with your messages last time you closed Entourage. I wrote a script called Next Folder which, in essence, locates every folder with unread mail and opens the next one in your list. It remembers where you are and moves to the next folder with unread mail each time you run it; I assigned a key to it so I could just type control-N and get to the next folder. Entourage for X has some improved ways of navigating and finding folders with new mail. I believe Next Folder is available on my web page (see my sig).

Maintaining Entourage database on 2 Macs
I'm considering saying good bye to Emailer and to Palm Desktop with the arrival of Entourage X. One concern I have is that I now maintain my PIM file and my Emailer database on two different Macs (G4 desktop and G4 PB). When the two Macs are on a LAN together, I can merge changes to EITHER machine's Palm Desktop database, and I can use Synchronize1 to copy the Emailer database from the Mac containing the newer version to the one containing the older version (for the mail database I must make certain I don't make independent changes to both versions). Will this work for Entourage (X or 2001)? Will I be able to install Mac Office X on my two separate machines (same license for the software, only one person using it - me)? Thanks so much. -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To search the archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/
can't compact or rebuild database
hello all, I ran into a real weird problem: one of my Entourage installations refuses to compact its message databases -- simply no dialog box pops up after launching E'rage with option key held down. German Mac OS 9.2.1, German Office 2001 with SR1 and security patch applied. Doesn't campact. At home, I use US Office 2001 with SR1 and security patch on top of a German OS 9.2.1 -- compact rebuild works. Both installations (except for minor differences) share the same set of installed Entourage AppleScripts. Any suggestions for troubleshooting besides re-formatting the disk drive and starting over right from scratch?

Converting Palm tasks
One important difference between tasks in Palm Desktop and Entourage is that Palm records a date for when a task is due as well as when it was actually completed. Entourage only records the task's due date. For me, knowing when a task was actually completed is more useful. For new tasks in Entourage I work around this by using a nightly script that updates the due date for all current uncompleted tasks to today. So when I mark a task completed, its due date is the completion date. I've got a lot of old tasks I'd like to import from Palm Desktop. Before importing, I'd like to run a script that will go through all the Palm tasks and change each task's due date to its completed date. Then when I import to Entourage, all will be well. I'm not much of an AppleScripter. Can this be done? Can anyone help me get started? Many thanks. -Dan -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To search the archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/

Re: Converting Palm tasks
Difficult, because Palm Desktop is one of the worst scripting implementations around. I would not try it, and I've written dozens of scripts for Entourage, Emailer, and Outlook Express. There might be some way you could map the completed date to a custom field in Entourage, and then use an Entourage script (fairly simple) to copy the date to the due date field after you import it.

Re: Maintaining Entourage database on 2 Macs
I think what you want to do will work. I've copied the Microsoft User Data folder for Entourage back and forth between my iBook and my iMac when I travel; works fine.

At the moment there is no Palm Sync for any OS X app. When there is, you will be able to do exactly this, just as people now sync two copies, or two identities, of Entourage 2001 via a Palm. I am currently writing scripts that will allow you export and import selected (i.e. new) contacts, calendar events, tasks and notes from one identity of Entourage X to another (or to a Entourage 2001 identity and thence to a Palm synch if you wish). There are some small limitations with decent workarounds. -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To search the archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/

Duplicate Contacts
I have tried looking about in several places for the answer but no joy as of yet, I know I've heard of this but for the life of me I can't remember the magic steps required to fix it... What happens when categories duplicate themselves on the Entourage side of a hot sync. I know the categories are only passed one way--from the Palm to Entourage. I have one category that duplicates itself after every sync. What's the juju?
