How to sync Entourage with Outlook 2007 on another computer.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

First, set up a Google calendar that will act as the catch-all for your events. Then go to Google's support page for instructions on setting up Google Sync with your Outlook Calendar. Instructions can be found here:
http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955
So now you should have Outlook syncing with Google Calendar. The next step is to get Google Calendar syncing with Entourage. That's a little trickier. You would think not, Outlook and Entourage are both MS products with the same reasons for existing, but they don't work the same way at all at the code level. Thanks to Ben Rapin for discovering a way to sync Entourage with Google Calendar via Calgoo Connect (and iCal), you can read his instructions for that here:
http://www.benrapin.com/blog/2009/05/06/my-quest-to-sync-google-calendar-with-microsoft/comment-page-1/
Or go straight to the source and download Calgoo Connect here if you're feeling frisky and want to figure it out yourself:

Now Calgoo should be syncing Entourage with the same Google Calendar you already have syncing with Outlook. If your using a Blackberry or iPhone that is set to sync with this same Google Calendar it will all be in the same chain of synchronization as well, an added bonus and exactly why I was on the search for this type of syncing to begin with. Funny I have to use Gcal to sync my MBP with my iPhone....Just as funny as needing Gcal to sync two MS products like Outlook and Entourage.
Anyway, I hope this accomplishes what you're attempting to do. I understand the need for multi-platform sync and someone needs to develop a seamless solution to this issue. It seems Google is almost there.

M$Therefore, If you have the original disks and liscenes you could use your windows explorer to explore the cd and select all the files on it then use FTP to connect to the remote computer and transfer all the files to the new computer. from there you could burn a cd and install it.

The contacts and to-do's are definitely an issue. Google is supposed to sync contacts as well, but it doesn't seem to work quite right, although the calendar syncs well. I've heard of Plaxo but not tried it. Hope it works out for you, someday perhaps there will be a true Outlook for Mac.
