After upgrading to Office 2004 SP2, I have noticed this weirdness with
Entorage:
1. Press Apple-1 to view Mail window.
2. Press Apple-3 to view Calendar view.
3. Click the Exchange calendar to view it instead of "On My Computer."
4. Close the window.
5. Press Apple-3 again and it selects the On My Computer view. (I
would expect it to keep the Exchange calendar selected)
The step #4 is the critical one...if you cycle between 1 and 2, it
still keeps the previously selected calendar chosen.
Several other people in my organization are reporting that they do not
have the same trouble. I've tried trashing the .plist's and rebuilding
the database as well as searching through all of the menus and
preferences, but haven't found any solutions.
I've been using Entourage since 2001 and upgraded through X and 2004.
Exchange account existed prior to installing SP2.
Ideas? TIA!
P.S. - It seems to me it would be nice to be able to disable/delete
this additional "On My Computer" calendar. While several people here
seem to like it, I sense that there are also a bunch of people who do
not need the extra one. And if you're going the multiple calendars
route, why not do it like iCal? You can create an infinite number of
them and check boxes to turn them on-and-off so that you can view any
combination of them. (and no, "All Events" does not count)
