Entourage -- Slow Shutdown
Authored by: mdc719 on Dec 06, '01 12:06:38PM

I too have noticed this lately. I have a DP G4/450 running 10.1.1. At first I thought Entourage was not going to close at all, so the first few times this happened, I forced the app to quit. Then I waited one day and noticed it eventually quit. I also noticed that Word does this too. I am not on a network (other than my internet connection), and I have no IMAP accounts setup in Entourage. I'll try it and see if closing my PPP connection has any affect on Entourage closing more quickly. However, that would be a real pain to have to do that in order to just get Entourage to close correctly. I would also be interested to know if this is a glitch or if Microsoft has said or will say anything about this.

Entourage -- Slow Shutdown
Authored by: the fox on Dec 07, '01 03:46:44AM

I get slow quitting of Entourage and Word v. X as well. I can't shut down my PPP because, I suppose, I'm on DSL. Some posts on another site suggest it has to do with Office checking the network to see if other Ofice apps are working. Thank you again, Microsoft, for adding such a wonderful feature. I find it's easier to force quit these office apps than to sit around and wait for them to disappear. Someone please give us a hack to get rid of this problem.
