Can you archive old calendar items in Entourage so you don't run out of space on your Blackberry?

Hi everyone,
I have a Sprint Pearl 8130 and I am syncing with PocketMac to Entourage 2004 on an iBook G4 running OS 10.3.
Most of my syncing issues are minor (for some reason, in contacts, work and home email addresses switch fields, but I can live with that) and I don't have too many complaints about PocketMac for now....
My question is - Does anyone know how to archive old calendar items so that my Blackberry doesn't run out of space? I have calendar items going back to the beginning of 2008.  I don't need past calendar items on my Blackberry, except for reoccurring items, like birthdays and such, and maybe a month's worth of old appointments just for reference.  My Blackberry has run out of space a couple of times and when it deletes the appointments from my Blackberry, syncing wants to either delete from the Mac or restore to the Blackberry.  I know you can do this with a Palm and their Palm software, since I used to have one and I was able to archive items older than a week.  Then you would be able to access them in a separate archive profile.
I have searched everywhere and the closest thing I can find is to purchase Missing Sync and set to match my sync date range.  https://support.markspace.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=327.  But that doesn't really solve my issue of running out of space on my Blackberry.  The other thing that I could think of is to export the calendar items into a .rge file, then delete the calendar items from there, sync, and have PocketMac remove items from my Blackberry, but it would be a pain to easily access old calendar items.
I appreciate any thoughts, ideas and especially solutions!

I have the exact opposite issue you mentioned
my client wants his archived calender items to be synched to his 8830 world wide ed.
he is running RIM software (DesktopManager) v 6.4
BES 2007
current issue is that his archived old calendars are not synchronizing to his handheld; we tried to force his PC to synch those items manually through cable, which didn't help, since our BES policy force waireless synch policy to the device and wireless synch never can see the archived items files
I think if you can set the option on your device so it turns on the calendar wireless synch, and also make sure MAC does not select archive to synch
Calendar > Options > General settings or /Wireless synch set to ON;
if you running BES set Calendar Wireless synch off

  • How to restore calendar items from Entourage 2008 after upgrade to Lion (10.7.5)?

    I held off upgrading to Lion because I had a bunch of old email I wanted to convert first. But now that Apple is no longer offering security updates for Snow Leopard, I decided to take the plunge. Unfortunately, after the Lion upgrade most of my calendar items in Entourage 2008 disappeared (and those that remained appeared in duplicate).
    I think I should be able to access an uncorrupted version of my Main Identity folder for Office 2008 … because I have an Automator workflow that creates a daily backup, and that backup should be available through Time Machine. I turned off Time Machine after this calamity so that I wouldn't overwrite my Entourage Backup folder.
    I need the July 8 or 9 version of:  ~ / Documents / Entourage Backup / Main Identity.
    But when I select the Entourage Backup folder and open Time Machine, all the Finder windows behind the current one go dark and I can't move backward toward an earlier date (I've done this with Time Machine turned off and on). This makes me think the Entourage Backup folder has not been getting backed up recently, or perhaps ever. Ugh.
    When I check my Time Machine preferences, only the following items are shown as excluded from backups:
    So it seems I should be in the clear and able to access Entourage Backup.
    Any idea what I'm doing wrong in trying to restore from Time Machine? Or anything else I might be doing wrong?
    Many thanks.

    When I check my Time Machine preferences, only the following items are shown as excluded from backups:
    Not sure how any of this relates to a Time Capsule....one of the hardware products that we support in this forum.....but we will try to help.
    Main Identity is located as follows on your Mac:
    Macintosh HD > Documents > Microsoft User Data > Office 2008 Identities > Main Indentity
    Unfortunately, you have been excluding Microsoft User Data from your backups, so there is nothing to recover or restore.

  • Issues with old calendar items after migration from SBS2008R1 to Windows 2012R2+Exchange 2013

    Hello,
    After migrating a customer from Windows Small Business Server 2008 R1 to Microsoft Windows Server 2012 (DC) and Microsoft Windows Server 2012 & Exchange 2013 there are a few issue regarding
    the GAL and old migrated calender items that we are unable to resolve:
    Old calender items which were Exported to PST when the Server 2008 R1 environment was still live were imported to the new mailbox of the user, located on the Exchange 2013 mail database. This
    seemed to be working just fine.
    The problems arise when a user tries to edit or re-send an old calender item. There actually are 2 problems:
    1. When resending an old calender item, OLD GAL entries are used (even when re-entering the contact details) and the emails are send to nobody and you get the mail back from postmaster
    2. When updating an old calender item you get an error that you do not have permissions, probably because you are NOT the 'old' Exchange user.
    Thanks in advance!

    Did you use Exmerge or similar to export?
    You may have an issue like that explained here.

  • Delete old calendar items on iCloud

    Hello,
    we are using the calendar on iPad Mini synchronizing the entries with iCloud. We can deactivate old calendar items but this doesn't delete them. How can we delete old entries from the calendar (e.g. older than 3 months) and therefore, also delete them from the iCloud storage?
    Kind regards,
    Mike

    On the next sync, you can choose to replace all events on the iphone.
    This option is found at the bottom of the info tab in itunes.
    Befor you use this, make sure that any events on the iphone have ben moved to the computer.
    Hope this helps.

  • Does iphone keep any archive of calendar items before synchronizing

    Does iphone keep an archive of calendar items before synchronizing.  I synchronized my outlook account on a new computer and iphone wiped out appointments made since the last synch on the old computer.

    OK, I just read page 149-150 of the User Guide, which says the following:
    "Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” choose an account, then do one of the following...
    "To set how long before messages are removed permanently from Mail on iPhone, tap Advanced and tap Remove, then choose a time: Never, or after one day, one week, or one month."
    First of all, it would be much clearer if the heading is "Delete Messages" instead of "Deleted Messages", which makes it look like only deleted messages are removed after specified time.
    Also, does that mean if I set Mail app to show 50 recent messages, and I have 1,000 messages in the past week, I can only see 50 messages even though the other 950 messages are still on my iPhone? How do I access them, only through Spotlight?

  • Watching youtube cause storage running out of space on android, can you do sth. about it?

    I believe because of sandbox on android, the internal storage of the phone is running out of space. I tried to put firefox on sdcard, but it does not solve the issue of flash video caching. It is still collected on the main storage, which typically is very limited. Eventually I have to clear private data after viewing few longer videos, can you solve this? e.g. by putting cache of flash videos to sdcard?

    Please make sure Flash plug-in in Firefox is doing the playback (so the issue is for Mozilla and Adobe) and not the Youtube app, I mean, there is always the option to load the video in Flash player or Youtube default app.
    AFAIK, YouTube Android app does not store cache in internal memory if a SD card is available, because I have a Android phone with few internal memory but it works. So try to play the video from YouTube app. Despite I hardly ever play videos from Firefox Android and don't have the phone to try now, I think you can choose between playing the video from Firefox or from Youtube app. To do so, please, restore all defaults (Go to System Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and choose to restore default associations in Youtube, Firefox and Flash Player apps) then try to play the video again.
    If you still want Firefox developers to do something over this, please remember the people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.
    If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox ''Help'' menu and select ''Submit Feedback...'' or use [https://input.mozilla.org/feedback this link]. (You'll need to be on the latest version of Firefox to submit feedback). Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.

  • I want to save my old emails as I've run out of space on my service providers server for my email.

    I want to save my old emails as I've run out of space on my service providers server for my email.
    I can't Archive as that takes space alos on the server.
    What is the best way to do this and still access/read the old emails on my iMac, 10.8.4?

    You can just drag the emails to "On My Mac" which will save them locally. Or you can use a third-party archive utility. If you're using Mail, you might look into MailSteward which will archive all your mail, including attachments, into a database:
    http://www.mailsteward.com
    I've used it for years and have been quite satisfied with it.

  • Im running out of space, how do I clear old content temp files

    Im running out of space, how do I clear old content temp files old apps?
    i have done the browser cache and cleared history.I am clearing items off the macbook pro but is there other areas i should clean
    Thanks

    Im running out of space, how do I clear old content temp files old apps?
    I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Temp files get automatically deleted when you restart. Old apps you can either uninstall (if it was originally installed with an installer, there should be an uninstaller somewhere) or drag it to the trash. What's "old content"?
    i have done the browser cache and cleared history.
    This is not going to give you back much space.

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Message: You will run out of storage when your downgrade takes effect

    In my email, I received a message today with the subject
    You will run out of storage when your downgrade takes effect
    I looked in my account and don't see anywhere where I've set it to downgrade. It's still set at the correct level. I checked the credit card to make sure it hadn't expired.
    Any thoughts of what else I could check?
    Here's the email:
    As requested, your iCloud storage will be downgraded to 5 GB on 02/27/2015. However, you are currently using 6 GB.
    Unless you take action before your downgrade takes effect, backups to iCloud will stop, and apps will no longer be able to save documents to iCloud. You can either free up storage or cancel your downgrade to keep your current storage plan for another year.
    To continue using these iCloud features without interruption, you can cancel your downgrade by selecting a different storage plan:
    1.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings and tap iCloud
    2.
    Tap Account.
    3.
    Tap your current plan, then choose from the options presented
    For more information on managing your iCloud storage, please read this Learn how to manage your iCloud storage >.

    Sounds to me like you're not the original owner of the device.
    Did you buy it secondhand? From where?

  • I keep on getting this error when i try to copy files to my 2T Time Capsule, Please help im running out of space on my MacBook Pro.... The operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)

    I keep on getting this error when i try to copy files to my 2T Time Capsule, Please help im running out of space on my MacBook Pro....
    The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)

    I would get an external drive today and copy all your stuff off the TC.. forget trying to load more onto it. There is a good chance after 3years (A 2TB should be only about 2years tops), the disk or the TC itself is on the way out. Do it immediately. If TM is also failing to backup you need to recognise symtoms of impending doom.
    Unfortunately the error messages are archane and it is hard to discover their meaning.
    You also cannot verify a network drive.. you can verify the TM sparsebundle though so do that.
    A5. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    Reboot the whole network from off.. certainly if you run later OS it can simply lose the drive..
    If you still fail to be able to copy to the TC.. then get that external and copy off it. Tell us if you can do that.

  • TWO Itunes accounts Running out of space on each laptop. Moving one accont fully to NEW machine wit 3tb drive NAS. Can i move second mdeia libary to nas drive ?? Ie tow itunes libraries on NAS drive working independantly

    Two I-Tunes libaries (Mine & My Wifes) Both Machines running out of space.
    My FIX Moving All itunes account Libary etc to new PC with NAS 2tb drive (IOMEGA)or Seagate or LaCie or etc......
    Can i copy the Bulky Library files ITUNEs from My Wifes laptop to the NAS drive ?
    Is this easy to do ?
    ALSO She will still have itunes on her laptop just none of the Bulky Library !
    As the ITUNES program will be Pointed to her files (Library on NAS drive ) ?
    If someone has done a walkthrough of something like this id really appreciate it?
    LASTLY I did hear with itunes new Updates that it stops NAS Drives Streaming Media ? (SO is a NAS drive No use if apple are no allwing the streaming for itunes Server)

    By default, the ITL is always on the C: drive.
    SO it seems you moved yours to the exHD. Just moving it doesn't do anything, though...did you ever do a shift-start of itunes and use it as your library?
    Pressing AND HOLDING the shift key until you get a prompt from ituens to choose a library ITL file.
    I would do that now before you go any further, to make sure of which library files you want to use.
    I would assume the one with the most recent date is the one you want.
    iTunes uses the last library opened. You don't always have to do a shift-start, in other words.
    However if at any point you start itunes without the exHD connected, it automatically goes back to the C: drive.
    In that case, you WOULD need to do another shift-start to use the ITL on the exHD>
    It's option-start on a Mac, BTW.
    You can move the whole folder over to your new MBP and do an option-start.

  • Old xserve running out of space.

    Our roughly two and a half year old 2x2 Ghz DualCore intel xenon xserve came with 3 x 750 GB disks.
    Two of them are mirrored, for system and files, and the third contains retrospect backup. It was the largest disks available when we got the server.
    We are running out of space, and need to do something with the matter in the near future.
    I am wondering if newer and larger disks are compatible with the server ( 1TB ore larger ), or should we go for an external "box" of some kind.
    Any advices? We have limited resources at the moment.
    Kind regards
    hoa

    I'd look to go external via SAS or SATA interconnect if feasible and if you've got the requisite PCI-X or PCIe slot open; per the [Xserve disk support document (HT1219)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1219], you're not going to get a big boost replacing the internal drive modules (ADMs) from 750 GB to 1 TB.
    I'd probably toss the "other" stuff onto an external (hardware RAID) disk array (disk shelf), and leave the system pieces in the box.

  • Pulled a 450GB folder over to new MBP and can't import to iTunes now (running out of space)

    I have moved to MBP and moved 450GB of music over, but can't load into iTunes now because it copies the files again and I run out of space.  How can I just migrate the existing folder over without iTunes trying to copy the files again?

    When you File > Add to library, iTunes will copy the files into the iTunes media folder.
    Just put the files in /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes/ folder.
    This will move the files, not copy them.
    I simply keep an alias of this folder on the desktop.
