Outlook 2016 For Mac Default

Since Outlook's arrival (replacing Entourage) in Office 2011, it relies on Spotlight to do any searching of its own database. Open the System Preference and click on the Spotlight icon, then the Privacy tab. Drag and drop your startup drive (where Office should also be located) from the desktop into the open window.

Or add it using the plus button. Then highlight the drive and click the minus button. OS X will reindex the drive. When it's done (and as it's working), search in Outlook should work. Hi Kurt, thank you for this! However, I am a bit slow - where do I find the startup drive? - or maybe the question should be Which Start Up Drive do I want??

By searching in Finder I have found two folders labeled 'Startup' so far but. One is located in Applications/Office and within it contains additional folders for Excel, Powerpoint & Word - but there appear to be no files in those subfolders and Outlook is not listed. The other is located in User Content/Library/GroupContainers/UBF8T346G9.Office/UserContent and within it contains two additional folders: Excel & Word To be even more confusing. I have found a couple folders labeled 'StartUpItems' that are located here: I went to Devices and chose the Mac HD then: Library>StartUpItems - however I don't see any files but I assume they must be hidden. Also from Devices and chose the Mac HD then: System>Library>StartUpItems - again, no files are viewable Are these actually the same folder just displayed/accessed differently? Or actually two different ones? Thanks for the help!

I tried manyt of the suggestions on the web to get Outlook's search function working; rebuilt my Outlook database and Main Identity several times, forced Spotlight to reindex my HD using Terminal etc, but couldn't get it working. Oddly, Spotlight and Apple Mail had no problems searching for emails, just Outlook that couldn't. It was this suggestion that finally cured it for me: After emptying my Inbox folder cache (right click on Inbox - Folder Permissions) it took a while to resynchronise with my Exchange server. However, the end result was Outlook's search function fully restored. None of the solutions that I have seen from Apple and Microsoft worked for me (including re-indexing Spotlight and uninstalling and reinstalling Office entirely). But here is what did work: Microsoft recommends running the following command in Terminal to re-index Spotlight: mdimport -L.

This failed for me repeatedly (I also tried re-indexing Spotlight using the System Preferences> Spotlight> Privacy on/off technique as well, did not work). What worked for me is running the Terminal command that completely ERASES and REBUILDS the Spotlight (rather than only re-indexing it): sudo moduli -E. This command took longer for my computer to process as it appeared to entirely rebuild the corrupted Spotlight index from the ground up rather than merely re-indexing a mess. Restarted computer afterward.

Now Outlook and Spotlight are searching and finding my recent and emails dating back seven years for first time in a week. Hp cp1215 printer driver for mac. Hope it stays that way. Hard to say what that did, but from what I can see, that command has nothing to do with Spotlight. There isn't even an argument for -E. But then, it's hard to tell what this command does at all. The description is pretty darn vague.
