Mavericks and Entourage problems!!

Hello all.
I have just updated my Snow Leopard to Mavericks via the free offer.
My Entourage has decided to play up on two things:-
• When I open Entourage it automatically opens up a new email to compose = Don't want it to.
• Also, as it launches a warning window appears asking for permission to allow/deny accepting incoming network connections. I have changed the settings in the Firewall pane (as suggested in the window) but still it asks me everytime Entourage opens.
Finally, why when writing questions in this window, does the flashing cursor move up to the last sentence therefore mixing up the words typed?
Hopefully when I type this it will show you.
I will type some words here. ll add these words. As you can see it's jumped up. This would also happen in 10.6.8.
Then I wi

Entourage is End of Life software. it will receive no further updates. Be glad it opens.
See this link for workaround to opening new window.
Office 2008 apps open with new window after upgrading to Mavericks
The issues with incoming network connections and cursor jumping most likely is specific to issues on your machine. It's either a settting or a conflict with a login item.
Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar
Log into Guest User
Do you see the same behavior.

  • Mavericks and photoshop problem

    Using photoshop CS3 in Mavericks and I get a ‘can't save file because it is already in use or was left open’ message when I try and save a photoshop file.
    Found a fix online which is to turn off ‘Show preview column’ in show view options, but this is a pain because I like to have the preview with image and file info.
    Is there a way around this, seems a strange way to get around this problem.

    Resetting Photoshop Preferences has been known to solve Photoshop printing problems, especially when you have no problems printing from other Mac apps.
    Hold down cmd-opt-shift while starting Photoshop and click Yes when the reset dialog comes up.

  • New Os X Mavericks and trackpad problem

    Hi everybody, yesterday i have installed maverick in my macbook white 2010. Today, after didn't use my mac for 20 hours, the trackpad is going crazy. It moves and click alone without any human contact. Can maverik create this problem?
    Sorry for the bad english!

    yep, I installed Mavericks earlier today, 27" 2011 imac, trackpad has no double tap smart zoom now, freezes whenever i attempt to swipe back to previous pages, really annoying as this is all pretty much second nature to me now so it involves having to close and reopen safari. This after i spent an hour on the phone to Apple support this afternoon after installing Mavericks due to an infuriating keychain assistant glitch. Not impressed.

  • Mavericks and RAM problems

    Since upgrading to Mavericks I have been having a great deal of problems with RAM.  I have 16GB installed yet it is quickly being all used to the extent the system basically shuts down as Apps are being paused.
    Looking in Activity Monitor it appears the main culprit is Calendaragent which at times is taking up 10GB of RAM.
    I am regularly quitting Calendaragent through Activity Monitor but this only gives me a brief reprieve before Calendaragent is again becoming bloated.
    I have had this Macbook Pro for about 15 months with no problems until I upgradeed to Mavericks.
    I haven't been able to find a solution.  Any ideas?

    Same issue here :-(
    I deleted Calendars Cache as described here, and that seems to have fixed it: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22480543#22480543

  • Mavericks and Keynote problems

    Hey guys, I am trying to work with Keynote presentation on my computer and when I try to edit the presenter notes below the slides it stops functioning. I wouldn't say it crashes as it seems to work, no spinning wheel, and the menu bar works ok. Has anyone came across this weird thing before ?

    Hi everyone
    Konsta_ntionos I did not experience the problem you mentioned.  So ypu added one more.
    Amongst many issues twith regard to Keynote 6.0.1 I have difficulaties to import templates from Keynote 5.3 into Keynote 6.  This seems not to work at all.  Even templates from the App Store have to be imported one by one from the app in Launchpad. Does anyone has a solution for this? 
    I agree with TheMarkusAllen that this update of Kaynote (and Pages) is not the quality we expect from Apple.
    I hope they offer a solution to make us enthusiast again.

  • Mavericks and Dropbox problems

    We have recently installed a new mac pro running mavericks 10.9.2. I have since been having issues copying files to various dropbox folders. Our dropbox is set up with 10 folders, one for each customer service rep. These are all in a volume which i mount on the mac. I cannot seem to copy directly into these folders. I can copy to a subfolder within each csr's main folder but not directly into thier main folder. Then I can sometimes move the file from the subfolder to the main folder and sometimes not. Does anyone have any ideas of what is going on.

  • Updated to Mavericks and have problems in terminal with bash

    Hi,
    After a number of years of being really happy with my Macbook Pro, Snow Leopard, I updated to Maverics. Amongst other problems with numerous apps, I ve come across a problem with terminal environment. Specifically when I startup a terminal shell I get these errors:
    -bash: .bashrc: No such file or directory
    -bash: /usr/local/auto/07p/cmds/auto.env.sh: No such file or directory
    ': not a valid identifier
    -bash: /auto/07p/cmds/auto.env.sh: No such file or directory
    for some reason I cannot set .sh environments and I also have a problem running python commands on command line for an analysis software AUTO07p (http://indy.cs.concordia.ca/auto/) such as @pp or @R
    Can any one help?

    Hi,
    Thanks for the prompt response. I do have a bash_profile and it looks like that
    . .bashrc
    source /usr/local/auto/07p/cmds/auto.env.sh
    source /Users/myprofile/auto/07p/cmds/auto.env.sh
    source /auto/07p/cmds/auto.env.sh
    # Added by Canopy installer on 2014-04-24
    # VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT can be set to '' to make bashprompt show that Canopy is active, otherwise 1
    VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT=1 source /Users/myprofile/Library/Enthought/Canopy_64bit/User/bin/activate
    # Setting PATH for EPD_free-7.2-2
    # The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave
    PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin:${PATH}"
    export PATH
    I m not sure whether the Canopy additions are causing a problem.
    What do you mean creating a new account? Like a new profile for my mac?

  • I currently use Snow Leopard and Microsoft Word, Excel and Entourage o my Mac.  If I upgrade to Mavericks, can I still use those applications?

    If the Microsoft Office is 2004 then no.

    Note I would recommend a minimum of 4GB RAM.
    You need to check all you software and hardware including any peripherlas you use, printers etc that they are compatible with Mavericks.
    Any software that is PPC and uses Rossetta will not work with any OS X verson later than 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.
    If you decide to upgrade have a tested backup of your current system in case of problems and you could return the computer to its previous configuration.

  • Mail and Notes problems in Mavericks

    I've just installed Mavericks and I'm instantly having problems with Mail and Notes. To wit:
    1) Prior to the upgrade, I had dozens of messages flagged. Now, almost no messages show up as flagged.
    2) Some Smart Mailboxes now only display only a handful of messages, when before the upgrade some of those boxes contained dozens, if not hundreds of messages.
    3) Now that Notes has been separated from Mail (I skipped Mountain Lion altogether) I can't get my iCloud notes to sync to the new app.
    Any guesses or advice?
    Thank you,
    Jeff

    Hello Oskar98,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when importing video from your camera into iMovie.  I was not sure of the exact steps you took to import the video footage, and I wanted to provide the steps to confirm you are following all the steps.
    Try importing the footage from your camera by clicking on the link that refers to your camera type and following the steps in the related article:
    To create movies in iMovie, you must import (transfer) your video footage from your camera to your Mac. You can import from most types of cameras, including:

  • I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files.  The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB.  How do I solve problem?

    I also had problem accessing my WD MyBookLive after upgrading to Maverick.
    To resolve the problem, I used  Connect To Server (Cmd K) to specify the IP address.
    Then I enter a user id and password I created in the MyBookLive.
    You can also verify that you have admin access to the MyBookLive using Safari or Chrome.
    Just enter the MyBookLive IP address as the URL.

  • I updated to OS X Mavericks and now trying to run Logic Pro X on a MacBook Pro mid-2009, using an M-Audio Axiom 49 and an M-Audio Fast Track Pro... Logic keeps telling me that Mac OS X MIDI Services are not available... How do I solve this problem?

    I updated to OS X Mavericks and now trying to run Logic Pro X on a MacBook Pro mid-2009, using an M-Audio Axiom 49 and an M-Audio Fast Track Pro... Logic keeps telling me that Mac OS X MIDI Services are not available... How do I solve this problem?

    I just checked to see if the update to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 solved any of the issues outlined in my previous post, and to my dismay, nothing has changed -- all of the previous problems persist.
    My iMac (8) -- it's renamed itself eight times since the recent troubleshoot with the Apple tech rep -- shows up as a shared device in Finder on my MacBook Pro, but when I click on it, I cannot establish a connection using "Connect As".  So I've attempted to connect using the menu "Go/Connect to Server...", using both (alternately) the iMac's name and IP address, to no avail.  I get a message which reads: "There was a problem connecting to the server 'Peter's iMac (8)'. This server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time.  Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again."
    Here's what I know:
    The server -- Peter's iMac (8) does exist;
    The server -- Peter's iMac (8) is available at this time;
    The server name -- Peter's iMac (8) -- is correct, as specified in the system sharing preferences;
    The server IP address is correct, as specified in the system sharing preferences;
    The network connection is active when I attempt to connect.
    I'm convinced the problems stem directly from the OS X Yosemite update.  None of this was ever remotely an issue in the previous OS X's -- any of them.  This is maddening!  What can be done?  Apple?? Anyone???

  • Since moving to Maverick and the new updated of Keynote, I have a constant problem when typing in a text box, the program crashes. Is there a bug fix for this. Drives me nuts.

    Since moving to Maverick and the new updated of Keynote, I have a constant problem when typing in a text box, the program crashes. Is there a bug fix for this. Drives me nuts. Like many who can type quite quickly but at secretarial level, the text box freezes, nothing works and you know what's coming...crash!
    This is most annoying. Is there bug fixes for this. Apparently I have the current updates and this problem still exists. Is it a Maverick bug or Keynote.

    How did you install Mavericks, as an update ontop of the previous OS or did you wipe the drive and install clean?

  • I'm working mostly with CS6 Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator and Acrobat Pro X. Can I update from 10.6.8 to Mavericks without any problems?

    Can I update to Mavericks without any problems for CS6 Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator and Acrobat Pro X?

    I can't guarantee it, but I think it's very likely you'll have no problems. Mavericks is now up to 10.9.3, and it's extremely stable.

  • Updated to OS X Maverick and now the keyboard doesn't work. Anyone with similar problem and a solution?

    I recently updated to the OS X Maverick  and the keyboard   just stopped functioning after working fine the first day. Pressing any key just produces a ding, but no mark. Pressing the return key produces a black dot as if you were putting in a confidential password. Has anyone had a similar problem and a possible solution? Thanks. mj-t

    I am having the same problem and its not on every call, its very hit or miss, but very aggrovating. The screen just goes black and the home key nor the power button on top have any affect. Then the locked screen will show but you can't unlock the phone. I have to let it sit for a minute and then I can push the home button and go on in and the call is finally disconnected.
