ERROR -40/DATABASE CORRUPTED

D

Deb

I lost all of my e-mails tonight. In my research online, I discovered
people have had issues when their entourage approaches 2GB. It causes
it to crash. Which it did to mine as my database file size was 1.9GB.
I used Entouraid to try and rebuild it but had no luck and have found
no other solutions online. Can anyone help with some advice on how I
could possibly recover this file or rebuild it?

Let me know! I lost a lot!!

Thanks!

The 2gb limit was removed about 2 years ago with the SR1 release for
entourage vX - all vX versions after that have had a 4gb limit. You can
download the latest updates to bring office vX up to v 10.1.5 for free from
<http://www.microsoft.com/mac/>

Updating now may or may not let you rebuild your database and save something
- it is likely that you won't be able to.

FYI, entourage 2004 has no size limit on the database, instead it is limited
to approximately 1,000,000 items of mail and other things.
