Running Microsoft programs, like sharepoint, on a mac has always been a lost cause for me. I just don't have the patience.

Having same problem mentioned about about subsites disappearing if navigate to another, then having to reenter info.

The lack of syncing between Entourage and sharepoint contacts and, especially, calendar may doom the switch to mac for our office.

Another problem having in browser (since lists don’t even seem to open in Document Connection) is editing in data sheet (option doesn’t exist). Also, cannot Connect to Client or Export to Spreadsheet.

Can’t delete a file (even if you have full Sharepoint permissions). Can’t create a folder (only a file, through Microsoft Office Word, etc.). Can’t move a file or folder.

The Delete option in the file menu does not work.

If you type in the address to a sharepoint site such as subsite2 as shown below in the navigation pane if you accidentically click on Site which you may not have Contribute permissions to then Sharepoint looses it connection all together and you can no longer connect to Subsite2. You have to add the connection back in. This is very annoying.

Site — Subsite 1 — Subsite2
