Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / November 2007Entourage Calendar exports
I was given an old Palm PDA, M100. I'm trying to find out if it's of value. It won't be, if I can't export my Entourage Calendar data to it. When I try to export that data to my desktop (on an Imac G5, running OS 10.4.10), and try to import into Palm DeskTop, the file (Main Identity.rge) is grayed out. Entourage doesn't give me an option to export the data as tab-delimited text, which should work. Any suggestions? Ed > I was given an old Palm PDA, M100.

Any suggestions? Why go through all that work exporting this or that when synchronization works so well? Why aren't you using HotSync to do this?

Are you referring to HotSync from the Palm? I was led to believe I needed to import into the Palm Desktop software, then synchronize to the Palm from there! > in article > jollyroger-9964CD.11270929112007@earthlink.vsrv-sjc.supernews.net, Jolly [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > import into the Palm Desktop software, then synchronize to the Palm from > there! No, no, no. : ) Ok... Microsoft Office has its own conduit that replaces Palm Desktop's conduit. The installer is here: /Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Additional Tools/Handheld Sync Installer. But before you install that, you need to perform a successful HotSync operation with your Palm and Palm Desktop to ensure everything works correctly (and to back up your Palm device). Once you know synchronization is working correctly, then run the Microsoft Handheld Sync Installer. It will replace some Palm Desktop conduits with an Entourage conduit. Next, run Palm Desktop, and choose HotSync > Conduit Settings. You'll see a new Entourage Conduit. Double-click Entourage Conduit to edit the conduit settings (there are a lot of them - be thorough). Then perform another HotSync. This time, depending on your conduit settings, your Palm will synchronize addresses, events, tasks, and notes with Entourage rather than Palm Desktop.
