Office for Mac, Snow Leopard, and Exchange 2003

Hi,

if you buy Office 2008, you can use Entourage to connect to Exchange 2003. A
newer version of Entourage, Entourage 2008 Web Services Edition, can be
downloaded for free, and it offers much better support for Exchange, but it
will only work with the latest Exchange 2007 server.

Entourage does not use ActiveSync to connect to Exchange, but WebDAV, so
some features may not be supported. Long story short: Entourage 2008 will do
the job.

Office sync/support issue

Maybe from the system address book to the phone, but certainly not from
Entourage since Entourage doesn't sync them through Sync Services.

If the 10.5.8 combo does not fix your problems, you'll need to do an
"Archive & Install". The last time I had to do one, the only thing I had to
reinstall was my Microsoft keyboard software.

Office 2008 hanging under OS 10.6 SL

I'm glad it's working in the new User. Testing and finding the problem in
your User's account is difficult and can be very time consuming.

See these two links to help start the troubleshooting process.

I'm not confident that your problems are going to be fixed by a Snow Leopard
update. Not all utilities are Snow Leopard ready so be careful before using
that they are updated.

Font Finagler (read their compatibility note)

For good measure, reboot using Safe Boot. Hold down the Shift key when
booting up. This will flush some caches and do some extra cleanup. After it
completes, reboot again normally.

Let us know if you fix your issues.

This this issue in a new User. Go to System Preferences --> Create a New
User in Accounts. Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User
Switching. Test Office there.

If the problem goes away you know there is something in your User's folder
that is causing the problem.
