Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel Email Client: pop This is a weird one. I even took my MacBook to the Apple Store and they couldn't figure this one out.

My calendar events and Tasks are deleting within one minute of me creating them. It also deleted all of my events that were previously entered. There are a few that stayed and did not delete. I cannot find a pattern to determine which stayed and which got deleted. The thing that i did notice about events that stayed is that they are all All Day Events. New All Day Events delete.

This has been going on for a couple weeks now. This is very frustrating because i love this program and organize my life in it. Please help!!!!

Can you check if you have any rule or a mailing list set in Entourage.

Can you check to see if you've got sync turned on in Entourage. Go to
prefs sync and see if anything in sync is turned on.

Sync in Entourage can do what you're describing if more than one
module is turned on at a time. I've had this happen. It won't stop
until you do a couple of things that I'll describe if it is turned on.

Let me know. Turn it off and this will stop and once I hear from you
I'll let you know how to safely engage sync.

I had the same exact issue!  So, I began using iCal from Apple just to make sure I do not miss a meeting.

I did as the person suggested below – and it works.  I turned off the sync and calendar events do not delete after I enter them on my calendar.

This is very very strange.  I would like to sync so my iPhone gets the data.  I will not be able to sync with my iPhone now with it turned off.

Let me just say: if there is anything Apple could do to resolve sync – entourage with iPhone – that actually works without creating multiple entourage folders in iCal – etc – it would be great.  For all the things Apple does get right – I am afraid Apple (and other companies) have not been able to create a simple workable solution for syncing.  It is just a fact.

Here is my computer info (and, no, I do not use Microsoft Exchange Server!):
Snow Leopard, MacBook Pro:
Model Name:    MacBook Pro
  Model Identifier:    MacBookPro2,2
  Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
  Processor Speed:    2.33 GHz
  Number Of Processors:    1
  Total Number Of Cores:    2
  L2 Cache:    4 MB
  Memory:    2 GB
  Bus Speed:    667 MHz
  Boot ROM Version:    MBP22.00A5.B07
  SMC Version (system):    1.12f5
  Serial Number (system):    W87170SUW0H
  Hardware UUID:    00000000-0000-1000-8000-0017F2DB7A10
  Sudden Motion Sensor:
  State:    Enabled

It would be nice to get this issue resolved.

Thanks!
