Yeah, this was definitely available through Microsoft AutoUpdate 1-2
days after the Mactopia release (we updated a bunch of computers here
at that time via AutoUpdate.)


Those we didn't update at that time (but were looking to update now)
are seeing the 11.5.3 update, but not the 12.1.5 update.

Entourage 11.4.0 OS X 5.6 quits when selecting color font

Hi Diane;

Yeah, but the first thing I did before responding was to check the Apple
Support & Download sites :-) As of that time the update had not been posted
& according to the InformationWeek article it wasn't released until Monday -
The message was posted a good 24 hrs prior to that.

Nonetheless, I don't think the OS X version itself is the source of the
problem - it's the disparity between the Leopard build & the Office 2004
update level that I suspect.

2004 vs 2008

You will never be forced to update. At some point they will stop issuing
updates.

Everyone should be aware that all software has a support period detailed
by Microsoft's "Support Lifecycle Policy" and that includes each version
of Office:mac. That support policy is stated on Microsoft's website.
I'll point you here for reference
<http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifepolicy>.

In a nutshell, Microsoft will support a consumer level product, such as
Office:mac, for five years after release or for two years after the
successor product is released, whichever is longer.

Even if they don't support it you can continue to use it. Entourage X
supported ended January 9, 2007, but users continue to use it.

Hallo Helge,

ja, so einen gibt es hier. Übrigens gibt es auch eine deutschsprachige

Entourage, Comcast password

Posted: 25 Nov 2008 02:09 PM PST

FWIW, I also use Comcast & occasionally find this to be the case. For some
reason the ISP just doesn't accept the PW on one or more of my email
accounts - even using Apple Mail, so yours may well not be an Entourage
issue. In fact, I use the same PW on several accts & it will reject it on
one but accept it on the others.

Quite frankly I can't wait for FiOS availability in my area.

And you would expect to find a solution in the newsgroup for MS Office on
the Macintosh because....? :-)

Seriously, I'd suggest you contact the vendor from whom you bought the PC.
If they don't offer any support you may be able to get some help in one of
the Windows XP support channels or newsgroups which you'll find here:

http://support.microsoft.com/ph/1173

My guess is that the Kaspersky product or some other AV or utility software
may be involved.

Hi,

Word can't render everything from every web page, but try this (I used
FireFox for this).

In the web browser use File > Save As > Web Page Complete (might also
try mht if that's offered).

Then in Word, use File > Open and navigate to the HTML file.

I am having the exact same problem Jonny! In fact I posted my problem prior
to seeing your post.
Diane: Thank you for the suggestion. I tried what you suggested and the
problem was the same for either users.

Despite having used Office 2008 for months now, once the updates were
installed the system keeps going to the "Office Set Up Assistant"
Any other suggestions out there??

Import Access into Linux server

Posted: 17 Nov 2008 12:23 PM PST

Adam,

If you just want to use the server to host the file, I'm sure you can do
it. Just copy the database file to a folder on the server. You have to
point Access to open the file on the server.

It should work fine.

Posted: 13 Nov 2008 12:39 PM PST

You need to purchase the retail package - there is no activation of the Test
Drive (WinOffice does have such a capability but not Mac). If you do buy
2004 be certain to use the Remove Office utility in the Test Drive folder
before attempting to install the new software.

Post back if you need further info on doing so - It will be absolute havoc
if you don't remove the TD correctly.

Entourage Build Information

This detailed info is not available AFAIK. I was having difficulty just
finding the release info and end of support date.

You might want to download this script to start your own database. Here is
an example for Office 2008:

Last update applied: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 3

Microsoft Entourage.app: 12.1.4
Microsoft Excel.app: 12.1.3
Microsoft Word.app: 12.1.3
Microsoft PowerPoint.app: 12.1.3
MicrosoftComponentPlugin:Tuesday, October 28, 2008 3:42:17 PM
Junk E-Mail Protection:Monday, October 6, 2008 7:24:41 PM
Mac OS X 10.5.5 (9F33)

Download this script that will show you Office version info. Note there are
different scripts for Office X, 2004 and Office 2008. It gives the version
number for each Office application, the component plugin and your OS
version. Even if ALL the Office applications aren't updated each time, the
Microsoft Component Plugin, which isn't an app, will always show the latest
update.

Office Mac 2008 Home key limit

Product IDs are stored in both the

don't have the ability to replicate the configuration.

As a test, I suppose you could, with all local Office apps closed, blow
away the settings file in the home directory and then start a local
Office app.

Expose Problems Still Not Fixed?

Posted: 30 Oct 2008 11:18 AM PDT

OK - I see what you're seeing. Sorry I didn't catch on quicker but I really
don't use Exposé that much. I usually Command+Tab/Command+` more frequently
than anything else. All I can suggest is that you use Help> Send Feedback to
keep hammering on the issue & I'll send up a note from this end. It's
possible that a windowing matter like this isn't something that can be
addressed by way of an upgrade.

Cant get right screen resolution for new 20" monitor

Diane's right - your issue is a Windows matter, not an Office matter... Or
more accurately a hardware issue. But her link won't get you where you need
to go - those are Win Office groups only, not OS groups:-)

Try starting here:

Did you install any driver software that may have come with the display? My
guess is that you need a new video card that supports the capabilities of
your new display, but the best source of what's required is the display
mfr's support site - see what they recommend.

Hi Bob, yes, I did look again & found the file path check-box, why I didn't

name/path option position is mystifying, but I guess they had their reasons.

Entourage and Outlook - Calendar Problems

If you have an answer or comment for the original poster then please
respond within that thread. Otherwise, if you're looking for a solution

begin your own thread. Similar problems may not have the same solutions.

I'll ask you the same question that I asked the OP:

If you look at your account in Outlook Web Access (OWA) are your
calendar items there correct? If it is not correct there then Entourage
won't be correct. Check with your administrator to make sure his server
is fully patched and necessary hotfixes have been applied.

If this doesn't answer your question then begin a new thread with
details of your own problem, include your software versions and what
you've tried already to fix the problem.
