Apr 29, 2008  It seems when upgrading from Office for Mac 2004 to Office 2008 the Calendar database within Entourage does not convert correctly causing constant crashes. To fix this you will need to uninstall Office 2008 HDD/Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Additional Tools/Remove Office/Remove Office.app Remove Microsoft plist files from /Library/Preferences.

Jan 31, 2009

I keep getting an error message 'Database Daemon Fatal Error' when trying to open Entourage 2008.

Intel Mac :: Unsuccessful Rebuilding M/S Office Database Following The Installation Of A M/S Outlook Update?

Jun 4, 2012

Running Mac OS X 10.7.4 with M/S Outlook 2011. I am a two day old ¨baby¨ on a MAC [heretofore a M/S OS PC user]. Did a M/S update yesterday including a ¨CRITICAL¨ M/S Word 14.2.2 version installation.Following the installation, I got a notice that 'an older version of M/S Database daemon is running and I must first delete 'daemon' from Startup Items & then restart my computer.See MAC OS help.' OK, I confirmed daemon was not in the Startup Items and restarted my computer. Now, when I attempt to open M/S Outlook I get a notice that 'There is a problem with the Office database. To use the database you must rebuild it using the Database Utility'..Two choices ' Cancel' or 'Rebuild' If I chose 'Rebuild' I am notitified immeditely that 'To use the database utility, you must first quit all Office applications' [There are no office applications open EXCEPT the Database Utility which I confirm using the Mac´s Force Quit Application]. In any event, I <click> 'Quit All' and after about 3 minutes a box popsup telling me the same thing 'to use the Database Utility I must first quit all Office applications'.
If I choose 'Cancel' on the the original notice that stated 'There is a problem with the Office database. To use the database, you must rebuild it using the Database Utility.' the notice disappears from the screen for about 5 seconds and then reappears. As an aside, I followed the instructions detailed by Christopher Breen, Macworld.com dated 18 April 2012 article 'Undoing the damage wrought by Microsoft´s Outlook update' wherein he details a procedure to 'REPLACE' M/S Outlook´s Database Headers with a working copy and thereby rebuild the Main Identity Database. Here again, after I <click> 'REBUILD' in the Database Utility it comes up 'UNSUCCESSFUL' in rebuilding the Main Identity database.

Applications :: Microsoft Entourage Database Corrupt

Apr 20, 2009

I have just configured Entourage and when I went to check mail, it gave any error and suggested that I fix the database. The MS site says you click the Entourage Icon while holding down the option key and it should give you the option to fix the database. When I do so it comes up and asks for a 'Fix Clock Key'. I'm using the new version of Office for Mac 2008 Home/Student edition.

Applications :: Have Lost Data On Entourage Database Rebuild - Want To Retreave It?

Sep 13, 2009

Entourage has been playing up recently and on a restart today it said the database needed rebuilding and not being very technical I just did it without reading up first.
I had antivirus running at the time and I think this may have caused problems.
I reopened entourage and have lost all data between April and today which is a major issue for me.
Can anyone help me recover the old data and get it back into entourage? I'm not very technical so step by step would be great.
I was about to do a clean up because my mac is running very slow and I presume it's because I'm running out of space.

I am looking for some guidance. Work were terribly nice to me last week and bought me a macbook pro 13'. I have owned apple products for years and finally bent their ears. I am now becoming stuck though. In entourage I have set up my account through the LAN at my workplace, but when looking to update my emails at home over my wifi network, it wont connect. Also I would like to access my documents and root folders from my profile on the XP work network, without running Parrealells or bootcamp (as I dont want to install XP on this machine). Basically I would like my mac to do everything my profile does at work, but on the OSX platform..

Applications :: Can't Open Office Attachments In Entourage 2008?

Mar 17, 2010

I suddenly can't open office documents (ppt, word or excel docs) in entourage when people send them to me as attachments. i think there was a software update recently, and maybe it was this that caused it. But, it is driving me crazy. I can open the attachments inside mac mail fine. In Entourage, says they may not be a ppt, or word, etc. doc, or that they may be 'in-use.'

Applications :: Office 2008 Entourage Hangs - Apple Or MS?

Aug 1, 2010

Seems recently every time I open Entourage it hangs as soon as I enter my mail account password. It then must be forced quit.
I have tried everything I could find online as suggestions to fix the ssues including deleting fonts, deleting font caches, rebuilding database, and identities etc. I also cannot empty the exchange cache as you must be logged in for the command to show up. I don't know if this is an Apple OS or Microsoft Office issue or how to figure that out?
Way to go with this as my whole office is run from Entourage and it is on hold until I can get this fixed. I have a MBP 2.4 with 4 Gig. Running 10.6.4.

Applications :: Entourage 2008 Time Stamp After Wake From Sleep

Dec 29, 2009

One of my clients just purchased a Macbook Pro over the holidays (first time switcher from Windows PCs), and is using Entourage 2008 in place of Outlook 2007. (I used the excellent conversion utility from [URL] to move all his Outlook data over to Entourage.) So far, so good, except he ran into a bug I couldn't resolve for him. Apparently, if his laptop goes to sleep, when he wakes it back up, he receives a bunch of new emails into Entourage that all have the exact same date/time stamp on them (of the time the machine woke from sleep). Other than turning off sleep mode, or always making sure Entourage is closed down before the laptop goes to sleep, is there a fix for this issue?

OS X :: Microsoft Entourage Database Utility Not Working

Apr 28, 2010

I am running Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac on a MacBook running OS 10.6.2. I am having a problem with my Entourage database. For a while Entourage would freeze while opening, but then eventually open after a restart. Now it won't open at all, it comes up with a message that say 'Entourage cannot access your data. To attempt to fix the problem, rebuild your database.' So I click ok and it opens the Database Utility.
But here's the weird part: After a few seconds the Database Utility opens and comes up with a message saying I need to quit all Microsoft programs before it can run. So I do that. I even quit ALL programs except the utility. But it still comes up with another message telling me to quit all Microsoft programs. So in other words, the database utility won't run. What do I do now?

Software :: Entourage Database Error After Rebuild?

Dec 24, 2009

I am trying to rebuild my Entourage database (Entourage 2008 12.2.3 under Mac OS X 10.6.2). It seems to work ok (through the 5 steps) but when I open Entourage after that it tells me that the database is not working well and that I need to rebuild it.. which I just did. How can I have it rebuilt properly?
FYI, the 'Main identity' folder (in 'Office 2008 Identities') is already 15.74GB. If this is what can cause the problem, how can I reduce the size? (split my email messages in different files?

Software :: Recovery Of Sent Mails After Entourage 2004 Corrupt Database?

Oct 6, 2010

MAC OS X 10.4.11; Entourage 2004 11.4.0
Two days ago, all my saved and sent emails (except for the last 2 or 3 days) disappeared. I believe I had a corrupted database. I imported a rge backup file from a week ago and got all my emails in the 'Saved' folder (whew), but that backup did not have the 'Sent' folder, so I still do not have all my sent emails.
How to I recover my sent emails either from the rge backup file or some other way [VERY IMPORTANT]?
Is there anyway to recover the week's worth of emails I lost, saved and sent, from the backup to the crash [not as important]?
I'll no longer be using Entourage, so I'm just looking to recover these emails, and possibly import them into Thurderbird.

ICloud :: Does It Work With Entourage 2008 For Mac

Feb 18, 2012

Does icloud work with Entourage 2008 for Mac for email? Mac says it does but Microsoft says it does not support icloud in Entourage's email program, or in 2011 Office for Mac. I have the same impression for 20 years---Apple and MSFT refuse to communicate on anything impacting their customers and we suffer.

OS X Server :: Duplicate Mail In Entourage 2008

Software :: Entourage 2008 Can't Move Messages Manually?

Dec 31, 2009

I installed Entourage 2008 on my MBP 10.6.2 and updated it to the latest version. Everything worked fine until today. I can't grab and drag individual messages to put them into folders anymore (the move-to tool still works). I also can't grab folders and drag them onto my desktop (for archiving, e.g.) anymore. I believe it worked initially. The only thing I can think of that I did since the first installation of Entourage was create a backup of my system on another partition using SuperDuper and since then Entourage upon startup asked for permission to use an obscure font on that backup partition, which is weird in its own right. After getting that message a few times (and denying access every time) I chose the option for Entourage not asking me again, so I don't know the exact name of the font it was asking. But I'm sure it was one of the WarnockPro incarnations. Is there a way to get Entourage to ask me again for that font?
But more importantly, addressing the main issue re. drag and drop of messages and folders: has anybody heard of such behavior and knows of a fix?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Cannot Sync Entourage 2008 To Address Book

Apr 27, 2012

I have been using and syncing Entourage forever, and been syncing to iCal and Address for several years, especially since I've had my iPhone.
For some reason, and it seems very recent, no problem Syncing to iCal from Entourage, but I cannot Sync contacts to Address Book and vice versa. I have iCloud switched off, am on 10.7 and usually know what I'm doing.
I have tried deleting all Address Book contacts, resetting Sync Services in Entourage (after deleting all the relevant Preference Files) but nothing seems to work.

Software :: Outlook 2007 / Entourage 2008 Compatibility / Integration

Oct 16, 2008

I am currently a pc user and am considering getting a mac. Before I make the leap, I am trying to find out some info. Currently, I'm using Vista with Outlook 2007. I will have to continue using pc for work but would like to use mac for photos, etc.. My question deals with Outlook 2007 and Entourage 2008 compatability/integration. Does anybody know if Outlook and Entourage use the same pst file? Is it still a pst file in Entourage? I will be loading XP on mac via boot camp and/or Parallel/Fusion. Can Outlook 2007 and Entourage 2008 share the same pst file? I am hoping that they both use the same file so that when I'm in XP, my Outlook will have all emails, sent & received, as when I'm in OSX and Entourage 2008. Am I going to have to import file evertime I change OS? Also, does anybody have an opinion on Parallel or Fusion. What's the difference and what are the pro and cons of either.

OS X :: Snow Leopard Bug - IPhoto 8.1 Update Breaks Entourage 2008

Sep 9, 2009

The new iPhoto 8.1 update breaks the email functionality to Entourage 2008, if you're using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. iPhoto 8.1 can no longer successfully email photos to Entourage 2008. It worked just fine with iPhoto 8.0.4, but no longer works with iPhoto 8.1. This is a SNOW LEOPARD PROBLEM.. it works just fine under LEOPARD. The steps to reproduce this problem are as follows:
1. Change iPhoto's preferences to use Entourage as your email client.
2. Choose a photo.
3. Click on the 'Email' button.
You will get an error message from the Finder that states 'Microsoft Entourage got an error. Can't get content of window'. So you are not able to email a photo through Entourage this way anymore. You have to do it manually.

Applications :: Using Entourage Importing From Entourage

Dec 1, 2005

I've seen lots of threads go by about importing e-mail from one program to another, and my case is seemingly simpler, but I have had no luck so far.
I want to import into Entourage the e-mail from a backup of the disk. I know how to import mail into Entourage from other e-mail programs and I know how to import mail into Entourage from an archive created by exporting from Entourage, but I cannot figure out how to import from a backup of the folders under the '/Users/(username)/Documents/Microsoft User Data' folder, under which is where Entourage stores mail.

OS X :: MS Word For Mac 2008 Freezes When Open Document

Microsoft

Oct 5, 2009

Every time I open a document on Microsoft Word for Mac 2008, it crashes. I've had this computer for over a month and the problem just started recently. I'm running Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I was instructed to go to the 'Preferences' folder and delete com.Microsoft.Word.plist. When I delete that file, MS Word starts working again for about a couple minutes and then goes back to not working again. How can I fix this? I need to be able to use MS Word for taking notes in college. Should I reinstall it? Should I just switch to iWorks or something?

Laptops :: Macbook (Late 2008) Constant Freezes?

Aug 17, 2009

Microsoft Entourage

This has been a problem with my macbook for some time now, but It's never been enough to get in the way. Lately it's getting even worse.
When playing games, or doing anything remotely graphical (has happened while using iTunes visualizer), my macbook can just freeze. Very rarely I get the kernal panic grey window, but most of the time it just hangs, repeating the last half a second of audio. Using VMware (not playing games, just windows programs) can also freeze it.
I have the 2.3GhZ Model, while my friend has the 2.0GhZ model, and he does not have a problem. I don't think his has ever frozen. Yesterday mine froze twice within an hour, while his just happy kept running.
I've googled this problem and I can't find anything. I want to see if you forumers know something before I call Apple Support as I'd rather know whats going on before that.
I have:
2.33GhZ, 2GB RAM, NVidia 9400M, 250GB Hard Drive (Happened when it was barely full, and close to full). I'm running OSX Leopard 10.5.7, but this has happened on all version since I bought it (10.5.5)

Mac Pro :: (Early 2008) Running Lion, Freezes On Start Up Screen?

Mar 29, 2012

I have a Early 2008 Mac Pro running Lion. Its been running well but then last night it froze while I was on the internet. Pretty rare that this happens so I held the power off button and turned it off. Turned it back on and it made the chime noise, apple logo came up, a grey spinning wheel came up for about 30 seconds and then it stopped spinning and the computer froze there.
I tried a bunch of different things. I tried rebooting in safe mode, Recovery mode, From time machine external hard drive, Tried booting in the Windows partition that I have (its on the same as the boot drive I'm trying to boot in Lion off of).
