1 Entourage synchronizes changes to the Exchange Server from its own database; therefore, calendar and public folder changes can take up to 10 to 15 minutes.
2 Entourage shows free/busy status but does not show calendar event details for other people's Exchange calendars.
3 Save your attachment to the Network Attached Storage (NAS) space, save it to your hard drive, and then open it on your computer. Or, map a folder on your Mac OS sytem as a network drive on the Citrix system. For more information, refer to Opening an Attachment in Outlook via Citrix Using Mac OS X.
4When not online, you can see your e-mail messages and calendar in Entourage; however, you cannot browse the Global Address List (GAL).
