is there a way to view public calendars yet?

J

jsf

Entourage v. 11.2.5
OSX 10.4.8

Simple question:

is there any way that entourage users can view public calendars?

We have two public calendars, one for each of our conference rooms.

Outlook and OWA users can see these... Entourage users (latest version)
cannot...

Is there something we're doing wrong or is this simply NOT POSSIBLE?

TIA,

Joshua

Sure. I do it all the time in Entourage 2004.

On my Exchange account, I have a section named Public Folders. I can
browse this section and find the calendars I need. I can then set them
as favorites to subscribe to them (contextual menu). After that, they
show up in my list of calendars in the Calendar view in Entourage.

If you don't know what an Excahnge account is, chances are you can't
access pupblic calendars either ;-)

There are a few different types of e-mail servers out there (POP, IMAP
and Exchange for instance).
Exchange servers offer you a bunch of add-on features that are pretty
usefule in a corporate/academic environment. The server allows you for
instance to have a public calendar, where different people can add new
events that will be visible by anyone who subscribes to it.

In Entourage, public (shared) resources are in a "folder". You can go
through it to find the calendar you want to subscribe to and add it to
your favorite list.

Merci Beaucoup Corentin,

Once I adjusted the path in my account settings everything worked.

We're good.

On to the next challenge!

Cheers,
