Cannot Search Contacts in Outlook 2007

In the Contacts screen, no matter what I put in the top right "search all contact items" box, I get the message "no matches found" for (whatever I put in the box.) Then the same two contact listings come up.
I can no longer search my contacts, help!

Hi,
According to your description, I think you are unable to search your contact in Outlook 2007.
Method 1
Corruption in the pst-file could terminate the search
query prematurely and not all or none of the result will be shown. In that case you should run
scanpst.exe against your pst-file to check it for errors.
Method 2
To show contacts, the
Outlook Address Book Service should be added to your mail profile.
Outlook 2007
Tools > Account Settings > Tab Address Books
If the Outlook Address Book
service is added already, you should mark your Contacts
folder as an Outlook Address Book.

Cannot sync contacts with Outlook 2007

I've googled how to do this and everything points to a method I have already tried that has not worked.
It says I should go to the info tab of my iTunes / iPhone sync options and check Sync conatcts with, and choose Outlook. The problem is my drop down is empty and trying to click it does nothing.
I'm running Outlook 2007, Windows XP, and iTunes

Nevermind.
My iTunes had been acting kinda funny in general so I rebooted my PC, when I did I got an error that a process with iTunes was hung. When the PC came back up it was able to sync my contacts to Outlook with out issue.

Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
To customize Instant Search options by using Group Policy

Bought my hubby an iphone4 and I registered it and opened an apple account for him. I have an iphone 5 (under my own Apple account). I use icloud to sync calender and contacts with outlook 2007. How do I add my hubby's phone (account) to icloud ?

On his phone, sign in Settings>iCloud and enable Mail so that he can have his own email address. Then add your account in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and enable Contacts and Calendars. They will then appear on his phone alongside any syncing he has set up. This will keep your emails separate, or you can add Mail as well so that you can both access that if you want. You can add his account in the same way on your phone and enable any data types you want to sync.

Synchornisation of BB Torch Contacts with Outlook 2007

I have bought BB Torch 9810 recently. And dowloaded latest version of BB Desktop software. I tried to synchronize the BB contact with Outlook 2007. However, it is taking 5 hours or more to do the same. And even after giving so much of time, it gives errors and only partial contacts are transferred to Outlook. (Previously I was using BB Torch and the sync was just taking 2-3 minutes).
Please guide.

Hi and Welcome to the Community...and apologies for the delay!
Hopefully you already have this resolved...but just in case...
I suggest this thread:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Software-for-PC/Cleanly-quot-Starting-Over-quot-with-...
It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
Sorry, but better advice can only come from better input..."it gives errors" does not give enough to make reasonble guesses from.
Good luck!

Sync contacts from outlook 2007 to gmail problem

Hello everybody! I have an issue when I use the sync zone in order to sync contacts from outlook 2007 to gmail with pc companion 2.10.065
The problem is that some certain fields (like "work 2" number) do not sync at all.
Other fields (like the "webpage" field) sync on some contacts and do not sync on some other contacts.
Is there a workaround on that?

I have just tested this and it seems just as you say that any second number of the same category won't be synced. I think this is a limitation at Google not matching/supporting the exact same PIM filed's.
However I could not replicate the problem with the web page field.

My 3gs won't sync contacts with outlook 2007

No matter what i try, i can't get my 3gs to sync my contacts with outlook 2007.
Anybody had this problem and figure it out?

What have you tried so far?
Which iOS is your phone running on?
Basic troubleshooting steps.
1) Connect your phone to iTunes; click on your phone's name; Select "sync conatcts with outlook" from the other window.
2) Make sure your outlook is configured to a mail account. If you don't use mail account on outlook, configure it anyhow.

Some recurring appts created by iPhone cannot be erased in Outlook 2007

Background: iPhone 8gb setup on Mac G5 with iTunes. iPhone was then synced to my PC running Vista and Office 2007. Everything went great, but I foolishly merged all my Calendar reminders from my Mac G5 to Outlook 2007. The problem is that both the "Daylight Savings Time" and "Memorial Day" reminders were merged into Outlook, and now they cannot be snoozed, edited, cancelled, dismissed or deleted. The darn reminders pop up every 5 minutes (unless I leave the reminder window on the screen). Attempting any action with these 2 reminders cause the following error message to appear: "Cannot turn off reminder. You may be reminded again. Cannot locate recurrence information for this appointment." Why does iTunes create appts in Outlook that cannot be erased? How do I get rid of these appts? Can Steve Jobs come to my house and fix this?
Dell XPS 600 w/ P4 3.46ghz & 500gb mirrored hd's Windows Vista also have 5 mac's in da house!

Awesome! Thank you so much moelpd8!! I've been trying to figure this out for hours! I should have come to the forums first...
Good luck to the rest of you!

Searching contacts in Outlook 2010 results do not include Public Folders

When searching for contacts in Outlook 2010, connected to Exchange 2010, Public folders are excluded under "All Contact Items", however if changed to "Current Folder" in the scope of the ribbon bar, results are there instantly.
Operating Outlook in Cached mode with the download public folder favorites option checked.
I am not able to locate an option so that the public folders are searched at the same time contacts are searched. Can you help?

Public folder and your "current folder" is located in different folders against different mailboxs.
Search in "Current folder" will only return the result of contacts in current folder, but search in Seach > Options > Search Folders > "Find Public folders" will get the result of contacts in All public folders by default.
If you want to get the both of public folders and the specify contacts folders, please use Advanced Find and browse the certain folder.
Cheers,
Tony Chen

Putting iPhone contacts into Outlook 2007

Can anyone advise how I best transfer my iPhone contacts to my corporate Outlook 2007 Contact list?
I can export V-cards but can I import them and is there a better way to do this?
Many thanks for any help on this... I have a number of colleagues wanting to do this having just moved a team from one country to another.

Thank you very much ! But unfortunately the "Sync Contacts" does NOT have a Box for me to check, but it does only for e-mail Accounts. Could this be because, as it says, that my iPhone is being synced over the air ?

IO7 removed my contacts from Outlook 2007

After updating to the iO7, my contacts are all now showing up as "in icloud". When I create a new email, all of my contacts are gone from the drop down boxes and I can not select ANY of my contacts to add to the "To:" or "CC:" at all.
How do I fix this issue????
I am running Windows 7 Professional with Windows Office 2007 - Outlook 2007.
Thanks,

To back up. if you still want V24 in case the newest does not work it is here http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/24.8.0/win32/en-GB/
Note the win and en_GB in the link hence the need for that information to point you to the right download. It is however a public FTP server, so your welcome to look around if you want to.
