Saving archived emails for entourage 2008 on 2 different MacBooks

I use a Entourage 2008 on Macbook Pro at work on an exchange server and archive emails to specific files on my computer section. This allows me to keep the record of the email and keep the mailbox size appropriate for work. At home I have a separate Macpro with Entourage and want to "see" the archived emails.It is difficult to "synch" them if I saved at different locations.
Previously in outlook, I could do this by saving the PST file on the shared folder and pointing to that file when I opened the outlook at home. The file would be always current. IS there a way to do this in Entourage? Is there a specific way to point to the database, so that either work or home opens to a "shared" drive rather then the local C drive?

  • Moving Apple Mail.app "On My Mac" Emails to Entourage 2008

    As the subject says, how do I move my "On My Mac" emails and folders into Entourage 2008? I've already transitioned my Exchange account to Entourage, but would also like to move some old email I saved off. This is email that I originally moved from my Exchange account to local folders using IMAP and drag and drop (as opposed to "Archive Mailbox"). I would like to keep as much formatting and as many headers as possible. Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Tash.
    iCloud is only intended to sync iCloud email across your devices, it doesn't sync 3rd party accounts such as hotmail.
    Email is synced between devices because the account is an IMAP account, you might consider using your iCloud email address for mail instead if yo want it to sync, or...
    You might contact hotmail, they may be able to upgrade your address to an IMAP account, some providers can and some can't.
    Changing your known email address is always a pain to some extent, but it's a simple choice between missing out on the features you want or accepting the pain.
    If you are using a mail application as opposed to a browser based service, you should be able to move your archived mail folders quickly and easily. Many people you mail will use the reply feature and start using your new address without thinking and you can email everyone in your contact file your new address for those of your contacts that use their address book instead of the reply feature. You could send them your new vcard too to make the process simpler for them.

  • Created a PDF and added sticky notes, saved and emailed for review, recipient could not see or read the sticky notes.  What needs to be done for my sticky notes to be seen and read when emailed.  Thanks

    I scanned a map and printed to create a PDF document, at that point I added sticky notes of different locations with notes of descriptions, saved and email to client for review.
    Client received email but when he opened the attachment, all he could see was the map and none of my sticky notes.  
    What needs to be done so the recipient can see my sticky notes and read the descriptions for each sticky note?

    Hey roy,
    Could you please tell me what is your Acrobat version?
    Please ensure that recipient downloads the PDF and uses either Adobe Acrobat or Reader to open the sticky notes.

  • Missing Sync for Entourage 2008 or I Cal?

    There are well known issues when using Entourage 2008 as the default calendar. Missing Sync has a work around that links Entourage to ICal, however, this is not a stable fix, and rarely works all the time. So the question is: Should I default to ICal as the primary calendar and forget Entourage's calendar function for syncing events while using Missing Sync?

    Were you able to find a solution to your problem? I use Entourage as the default calendar and used ICal Cleaner to get rid of all the duplicate appointments that were being created. I then forced iCal to replace everything in Entourage. Everything worked fine for a few months until I purchased a new iphone. Now the diary appointments keep disappearing and no-one seems to be able to figure out why. I'm just wondering if something on the new iphone is making it unstable.

  • Archiving emails in Entourage, photos in iPhotos, music in iTunes

    Getting message "start up disk almost full". Need to make space by taking files off the PowerBook G4.
    Have a 500GB external hard drive. What is the best and safest way of archiving emails, photos and music to make room?
    Thanks

    For iPhoto you can move your iPhoto library to the external drive and run with it there - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library as a single entity to the EHD - launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and point iPhoto to the new library location - once you test it there you can quit iPhoto and trash the iPhoto library on the internal drive (I suggest launching iPhoto and testing one last time before you empty the trash)
    Note that you should always have 10GB or more of free space on your boot drive
    For information on e-mail and music post in the appropriate forum for your e-mail client and music program

  • My Mac Outlook 2011 Stopped Sending Emails for all POP Accounts from Different Providers

    I've had this problem before, but this time I am truly dumbfounded. My Outlook 2011 has randomly stopped sending emails, but I can still receive them. This has happened a few times and I normally change the ports/SSL and I can get it to work. But now I am at a loss. I have several email accounts that I manage. One of which is GMAIL, using IMAP, and this is the only account that currently works find receiving and sending. My POP accounts, four of them, all cannot send emails. They can only receive. One of them is with GoDaddy, and the other three are with an Asian company. I can't find any help on this. I've upgraded Office to the latest version. I've even deleted the accounts and added them back in, and I still can't send email. I'm frankly getting exhausted and sick of this type of problem happening. I honestly use this program and my MacBook Air to send clients information...only to find out hours later that a mail never sent because it's been stuck in my <hidden> Outbox in Outlook 2011. This has hurt me now badly on several occassions. Please HELP!

    All SMTP servers are set correctly as far as I can tell, the connection doctor says everything is fine, and I removed all my accounts to re-add them.  I added one and tried to send a message--stuck in the outbox--failed.  I added another account and deleted the first one and tried to send a message--stuck in the outbox--failed.  I'm pretty convinced the problem is with Mac's Mail client...I can send email from anywhere I've tried except for Mac's Mail client.  Thanks for the help.

  • Archiving with Entourage 2008

    Has anyone come across a good automatic archiving solution for Entourage 2008? I don't want to run and Applescript or use Filemaker or things like that. I find it hard to believe there isn't a solution built in to it do archive. Creating an archive folder and manually moving email to that folder isn't the right answer either.

  • Entourage 2008 : applescript for Filing Emails into folders?

    Hi all,
    I run a script that archives all emails that are older than 4 weeks into an Archive Folder in "On My Computer" in Entourage.
    I'm wondering is it possible to to the following via apple script for Entourage 2008:
    In the Archive folder, within each email find the senders email address. Then create a sub-folder (if it doesn't exist) with that senders domain as the name of the folder (eg if sender address was "[email protected]", it could create a folder called "customer.com" or "customer_com".
    Then move that email into that folder.
    if it can be done, this would save me a huge amount of time sorting old emails into subfolders for each customer.
    many thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

    I'm glad it did import. We've had several users that it simply refused to import an Entourage X Identity. BTW, using category colors is never remembered. It's one of the little hidden gems that you can use. Speaking of hidden gems, be sure to enable in the Entourage Address Book the First Name, Last Name columns and get rid of the old Name column. Finally real sorting.

    When you clicked to resolve, this did not delete the older Microsoft fonts. I suggest that you remove those. Users have reported they were activated again.
    This shouldn't be a problem for you since you moved to a new computer and didn't install Office X, but older versions of Office install the Microsoft fonts in the User's Library/Fonts folder. Anyone with older fonts here should delete them.
    BTW, Office can run without any of it's installed fonts. A few of it's menus might look a bit funky, but it's ok to remove all if you want to test.

  • Entourage 2008 email sync with PocketPC WIndows Mobile 6

    Hi:
    Does anybody know a software or procedure for syncronize emails between Entourage 2008 and PocketPC?
    I´ve tried Missing Sync and PocketMac but unfortunately none can do it. They only include notes, tasks, contacts, calendar, but email isnt included.
    I have a MacBook with Mac OS X 10.5, Entourage 2008, PocketPC with Windows Mobile 6.
    Any comment or suggestion for an alternate way for do it is welcomed. Even if I need to change to another email cliente
    Thanks in advance

    Since this question is about a Microsoft product, you might have more luck getting suggestions if you ask in Microsoft's own forums.
    Good luck.

  • Can not sync my Blackberry 8830 with MacBook using Pocket Mac for BlackBerryto Entourage 2008

    I recently purchased a Verizon plan with my new BlackBerry 8830 Curve. I also downloaded pocketmac for blackberry with the Verizon technical support person. He spent almost 2 hours with me yesterday. We still can not sync my Blackberry contacts and calendar events to my mackbook on Entourage 2008.
    This is the message I get:
    [02:20:57.110] Could not lcoate the Microsoft Entourage Office Synchronization Tool.
    [02:21:01.076] Could not lcoate the Microsoft Entourage Office Synchronization Tool. 
    PS, they even typed in locate incorrectly.
    Can some help? I am stressed out that I only have one location where my contacts are located- the BB
    Thanks
    Henry

    Guess what ? Pocketmac for Blackberry just released a new version this afternoon. 4.125.
    I downloaded the new version and it now has a sync for Entourage 2008 and it works BB to Entourage 2008 and Entourage 2008 to BB.
    Thanks to them for finally fixing this major flaw

  • Azure Backup for Archived Email

    Hello Team,
     Can we use Azure back up for archival of email back up. MS Exchange Server 2007 or older, approximately 150 TB of data and 5 years of archived emails for approximately 75K Users.
    There is no need to access these file on daily use , but should have a capability to restore the data on need basis for some legal / litigation analysis
    Regards
    Vinu

    Absolutlly.
    You can use Azure backup to store any type of data. First upload od data would probably take forever, but it  can be done.
    As you are speaking of Exchange backup, you can probably make it DR too.

  • Word for Mac 2008 - documents even at 100% size are too small!

    I am new to Mac. Just started using Word for Mac (2008) on my new MacBook Air. (I do not have a current user contract with Microsoft for this Word for Mac, so I cannot call them for support.)
    The 100% setting shows my new (and old) documents in a very, very reduced way. Only by zooming to the 200% setting can I get the documents to look a normal, standard size. I never experienced this on a PC, using Word versions 1995, 2000, 2007, 2011. I have searched the internet for answers, but have found nothing to solve this. I am sure there must be others having this same problem. Can anyone help me?

    Apparently this is a shortcoming of Mac OS X - resolution independence would allow the display and real world size to match. There is also no way of offsetting this and entering the real dpi of your Macbook Air into MS Word - it just assumes the display is 72dpi and that is that. There is no way to make it correct as it stands unfortunately.

  • Problem with Entourage 2008 for Mac

    I don't know if this is the right forum, if not please direct me to where I should go. I have Entourage 2008 for Mac. I continue to have a problem with the font reverting back to Calibri when I am composing an email. I've set up in Preferences the font I want, but it doesn't seem to work. Anyone have any suggestions? Other than give up entirely on Apple and go back to a PC????? The whole Office 2008 program is horrible and whoever designed it at Apple should be fired.

  • Getting M$ Outlook 2002 into M$ Office for Mac 2008 Entourage

    Need to move all email, contacts, and calendar from M$ Windows platform from M$ Outlook to Mac Snow Leopard platform under M$ Office for Mac 2008 Entourage.
    BACKGROUND
    OK, I've made this far. I bought my first MacPro in Aug 2008 and my MacBook Pro in Oct 2008 running both on Windows XP Pro under "BootCamp" and slowly playing on the other side with OSX Leopard. In Jun 2009 I bought a new MacBook Pro and running a subordinate Windows XP Pro under Parallels .. BUT .. for the most part have been doing more and more with Snow Leopard and FCP but have yet to move my mail, contacts, and calendar to the new machine while still running Outlook Express for email and Outlook for contacts and calendar respectively. Now it's time to make the final move to Mac but for now I shall go with....
    PLAN & CURRENT STATUS
    M$ Office for Mac 2008 and want to run under Mac Snow Leopard. I've installed the software but need to get my material converted over to the new machine. BTW, I would love to try Mail and iCal but this is my move for now and at least it's a Mac app with some of my M$ Windows familiarity to it as Mac up scales iCal or it's replacement and then I'll go there when the time comes but for now this is a major move for me and I'm proud of myself for getting this far so quickly.
    Step 1. I have imported all contacts, emails, and calendar from Outlook Express into M$ Outlook 2002 on the old MacBook Pro in Windows and am ready to move everything to the other MacBook Pro (new unibody one Jun 2009) and need the next step(s) from anyone who can help.
    Step 2. ???
    Thanks in advance for any who can help in this matter. I want to make the transition quickly so I can sell off last years model MacBook Pro 2.5GHz Core 2 Due 250 with 4Gb RAM.
