Calendar not syncing with Exchange Server

I have a bunch of appointment on my exchange calendar when I view it in Entourage but if I try viewing it in OWA or Outlook, none of them are there. I'm NOT looking at the calendar in the folder on my computer. The calendar is under the Exchange account.

Any idea how to 1) get this to sync properly or 2) export/copy all my calendar items somewhere that I won't loose them if I have to totally blow away my identity?

The path to the public/free-busy server might be wrong in your Exchange
account setting.

Well you can copy them to the local calendar, and then export to an
Entourage archive.

To make the move easier, you could create a custom view for all your
exchange events, select them all and then use the Move To command.

Thanks. The Custom view (New Saved Search) allowed me to copy to the local calendar. The export didn't want to run, crashed entourage. So I opened account and added a second exchange account for the same user. On this one could see the true exchange calendar. I copied the local appointments to this new account and deleted the old. The only thing I wish I'd thought of before copying was that I really didn't need all those past appointments, just the new one.

I did end up with a few double & triple copies on some recurring appointments but at least I didn't lose anything.
Thanks again.
