Entourage Syncing
- Make sure that you have set up Entourage with BUmail. Visit our
Entourage Configuration
page for more information
- Launch Entourage. From the Entourage tab,
select Preferences
- Select Sync Services
- Here you can select which services you would like to sync.
Services you can sync are Address Book, iCal, and .Mac. Simply
check the boxes to enable synching for those services. Select
<service>[BUmail] in the drop downs
- Click OK
- A box will pop up asking how you would like to sync your
services. You can choose to:
- "Replace Synch Services items with Entourage items". This will
send your data from Entourage/BUmail (Calendars/Notes/Contacts) to
iCal/Address Book/.Mac
- "Replace Entourage items with Synch Services items". This will
send your data from iCal/Address Book/.Mac to Entourage/BUmail
- (Recommended) "Merge Entourage items with Synch
Services items". This will combine the data in both places
(Entourage/BUmail and iCal/Address Book/.Mac). This will ensure
that all of your data is up to date in both places
(BUmail/Entourage and iCal/Address Book/.Mac)
By synching your data with Entourage, it will also makes the
same changes on the BUmail website. Conversely, changes on the
BUmail web site will be synchronized with iCal/Address Book/.Mac.
Note, however, that Entourage has to remain open for this synching
to take place.
