In re-installing Entourage, I seem to have made a mistake about identities and
lost all my Entourage data. I am backed up on Time Machine and can access old
data, but I don't know where to find information about messages, E-mail
addresses and calendar items.

Using Time Machine to backup Entourage basics:

It's advised by the developers not to let Time Machine backup your Entourage
database. If the database is copied while being used, the backup could be
corrupt. You can set the Time Machine to exclude the Microsoft User Data
folder and create an iCal event to copy it over at night while not in use so
you get one backup daily in Time Machine.

Entourage and Time Machine-like backup (creates chronological backup of
Identity can be used by both Tiger and Leopard)

Any suggestions about where to look for lost data?

Can you explain more about what data is lost? If you restored an Identity
from Time Machine and it's missing data, it's most likely gone.

Thank you. We found the old identity.
