If you're going to upgrade to this version there are a few things you should know....
The downloaded file replaces your old Entourage with a whole new version. It doesn't automatically upgrade your settings or data so when you start it up for the first time you may think you lost your data but you didn't, simply import your old data by using the File>Import command and your old user account will seamlessly be imported.
I had no problems at all with this and it was very smooth for me. Good luck.
I could not easily find any information from Microsoft about importing my database after installing this update, but I find it here. Thank you, I was really panicking about how I would get all my old messages. (The university I work for is changing over to Exchange).
Again, thank you.
(I will back everything up before the update, of course.)
I'm extremely happy with this update. It's a whole new program in the way it feels and responds. The speed has increased TREMENDOUSLY from application start time to managing large lists of mail and contacts. HUGE improvement.
Personally I don't use an Exchange server so I can't comment on that part of this update but the improvements to stand-alone functionality are awesome!
This resets all your Entourage preferences. It also causes Entourage to forget what mail you have downloaded (if you keep mail on the server with POP3), so it will re-download all the messages and give you a bunch of dupes.
UGH! i was waiting for this for so long and it won't install now. Cryptic, unhelpful error messages. I have two exchange accounts and it says they're unsupported... UGH.
