Entourage 2004 Exchange Calendar problems....

S

Shaun

Hi

I use both a PC and a mac, so use Outlook and Entourage 2004 to
connect. I do not sync entourage, but use it to view my calendar on
the exchange server. However, I have 2 problems:

1. The calendar in Entourage doesn't seem to take account of my
timezone - it always shows the calendar time set on the server (which
is 5 hours behind me). I have my timezone set correctly (GMT).

2. If I enter an event in my calendar using outlook, and sync it (and
then use web access to confirm the event is on the exchange server),
it does not appear in the Entorage calendar. Despite my setting "no
sync" in Entourage, the calendar seems to be working off some sort of
local copy!?

Any idea how I can get a correctly timed, server only calendar working
in Entourage?

TIA

Shaun

I don't know about #1, but for #2 if you have Entourage set not to sync the
calendar, that is why it won't sync events you create in Outlook.

Hi

So are you saying Entourage can only use a local calendar (i.e. one
that has been previously sync'd). I can't use Entourage as a way of
looking at the server calendar, without sync'ing?

Are talking about the Advanced tab of the Exchange account dialog? Yes, that
needs to be set to sync calendar events with the server. Otherwise events
you create in Entourage won't get pushed up to your Exchange account, and
vice versa.
