Spotlight Search not returning future calendar entries

I upgraded both my iPod touch and iPhone to 3.0. When I do a search for Doctors name to find both past and future appointments on my calendar, Spotlight only returns the past appointments. I know that the future appointment is in my calendar. Anyone else had this problem? If so how did you fix it?

I'm having the same issue. Haven't found an answer yet. I have multiple appointments with the same person and I can find them when I search within the Calendar application (6 appointments), but when I use Spotlight from the main menu and put in the exact same search terms, I get 4 appointments returned.
I would assume it would show all appointments or at lease give you an option that says "Show all Appointments..."

Spotlight search not working on ios7

Spotlight search not working on iPhone 5 updated to ios7. I can access the search bar, but nothing happens when I enter a search term.

I'm having the same issue with an iPad 2 and iPhone 5. As mentioned by Nick if you reboot it seems to resolve the issue. Note that after a reboot it can take several seconds for spotlight search to return the first results. After this first slow response it seems to be quicker.
If it helps I have a few hundred apps and about 24K songs so the search has a lot to go through!

10.9.1 Mail spotlight search not working!!!!! APPLE HELP!!!!!!

10.9.1 Mail spotlight search not working!!!!!

When you type in a search term in Mail, does it drop down a list of search criteria like People, Subjects, Mailboxes?
Or does it just offer "message contains"

Has anyone had a problem with the spotlight search not working sometimes?

Has anyone had a problem with their "spotlight search" not working? If I restart the phone it will work for a few days then not work again.

It's more likely the OP's router. I have a wifi only iPad 2, yet location services work just fine on my iPad. If I open maps, my location is found quite nicely. I have seen that some routers do not provide location services and I suspect the OP has such a router.

Search not working in calendar

Currently using Macbook Air 2013 and built in search for Calendar returns zero results everytime. What steps can I try?

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender mdworker -o -k Sender mds | grep -v boxd | tail | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context.

Spotlight search not showing all files

Hello,
I am trying to do a spotlight search on several 10.4 machines that I know have a certain folder.
When I do a "name contains" search for this folder, the search does not find it on some machines.
However, the same search finds the folder on other machines.
On the machines where it doesn't find the folder, it does find files with-in the folder, if I select them, I can see the path.
Is there an issue with the spotlight search where it sometimes won't return folders?
ARD version 3.0
Server version 10.4.8
Client machine version 10.4.6
Thanks for any help.

Have you specified any settings in Spotlight's System Preference pane, such as deselecting certain file types? If not, reindex the drive.

Vendor Search not returning any values in SRM

Hi Gurus
Has any one come accross the following issue? Kindly advice.
SRM 3.0
Search Vendor (F4) not returning any value although Vendor exist in SRM (system allows to raise Cart if Requestioner keys in the Vendor Number manually, ie. Vendor has very much got replicated in SRM)
Steps to replicate the issue
1) Log on to SRM portal
2) Expand the Go Shopping and click on Shop (Extended Form)
3) Click on Create Limit Item
4) Fill in the Description, Select the Product Category, Enter the Value Limit & Expected Value & fill in the required date
5) To search for Supplier, click on the find button
6) In the Find Vendor screen press the start button without entering any restriction
7) System throws a message "No Vendor found"
Kind regards,
Mehul Shah

Hi Muthu,
Thanks for replying Muthu.
Entries do exists in VENMAP.
No filters are set while searching for Vendor.
In fact, If I find the Vendor code from ERP and key in the vendor number in the Supplier field in SRM, it rightly picks up the vendor from the Vendor code.
The only issue is....while I try to search for Supplier using the Supplier search functionality (by clicking on the binocular), the search functionality does not return any values (I put no restriction).
By the way, Is there any missing Attribute in PPOMA_BBP that may be causing this?
Regards,
Mehul.

Notification Center does not show current calendar entries? How can i fix it?

Sometimes entries for the next 24hours are shown in notification center, and sometimes not. It doesn't have to do with setting an alert, or not.
I really don't know, why it isn't possible to Show up calendar entries for at least 3 days for example.

Searching on keywords, if that's what you're doing, has never really worked. As to searching just on the category in the iTunes Store, it's most unlikely to throw up your podcast. There are thousands of podcasts out there, and it would be quite impossible to display on one page the entire list for any category. What you see are 'featured' podcasts, chosen by Apple as being special; please see this Tech Note:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#getfeatured
Note that there is no way you can influence the selection other than making your podcast really special.

Mail - Search always returns All mail entries

When I use the Search facility in Mail to try and find some specific mails I know I have amongst my many thousand of mails, i just can't get Search to return anything other than a full return of all items in the mailbox.
I'm clearly being daft somehow, but can't figure it out.
I enter single word into the search box in the top right, and it always just says 10,562 (or whatever the current number is) items, which makes no sense. I'm using search words that should return a few hundred. I've even put in non existent words to prove the point - still get the same number 'returned'.
Sort of sensing that no search is actually taking place, or there's some overriding criteria/setting hiding somewhere.
Using current version of Yosemite including version 8.0 of Mail.
What am I missing - anyone know?
Cheers.

I was able to solve all my problems with searching in Mail with a simple process. I backed up my entire machine with Time Machine, then booted from my OS X install / restore DVD. Then selected restore from time machine backup, it rewrote my entire hard drive with the backup from time machine and upon booting back up, Mail reindexed all messages and my computer was exactly how I left it before I backed it up.
The problems I was having with mail included:
Unable to search 'entire message'
Unable to search 'entire message' when a specific inbox was selected
Able to search messages from spotlight in the Finder, but then they would disappear.
The spotlight index not being updated when new mail came in, making it unsearchable.
Plus a slew of other search in Mail problems.
Backing up and then doing a full restore from Time Machine solved all the problems.
Hope this helps,
Vince

Mail+Spotlight Search Not Working in Lion

I've been dealing with this problem for over a month and have not been able to fix it. Search works fine in Lion on several computers, but on my laptop it still won't do a complete search. It will only pull up emails from people in my contacts list..... no subject key word searches or people outside my contacts searches..... very frustrating! The searches also don't work in Spotlight, so I can't use spotlight as a backup.
I've tried rebuilding my mailbox.... deleting and recreating the account.... tossing out the Envelope Index folders in the Mail library... Deleting and re installing my search window, etc...... I see lot's of other people with the same issue. It's frustrating when your running your business on your computer and have to deal with a flaw in a new OS..... it was working fine in Leopard..... whats up APPLE? Please help!
Other Info:
Macbook Pro 2008 Version with 2.5 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
Running 10.7.4

Glenn,
Regarding adding and deleting the System Drive from the Spotlight Privacy Tab...... I'm following your sequence, but when I come back to Spotlight Search in the menu bar it just works the same.... no mention of indexing. What's interesting is that "Mail" dosn't appear anywhere in search results when a keyword search is performed via spotlight.
Regarding the "enevelope Index Files" ..... I followed the instructions and quit and re-opened mail as instructed. When I re-opened Mail I selected "continue" and the program began to index the contents of mail for about 30 minutes. I thought that would would fix the issue, but it's still not working.
I've tried to compare the account setup from my IMAC which works fine to see if I have something setup wrong in the account, but everything looks the same.
I guess I can try to re-index again? Don't know what else to do?
Thanks,
Bill

Fuzzy search not returning results?

I'm executing a phonetic search on the nm_resource column. my application allows a call center employee to search on the resource name (nm_resource), if the resource is not found then they will enter a new one. The problem is someone may have already entered the resource name but spelled it incorrectly resulting in duplicate records for the same resource name. To enable the call center to retrieve records that may have the same sound but are spelled differently we have implemented the fuzzy search capability of Oracle text. Things have been going very nicely for the most part with the exception of this one issue we're trying to understand.
Using the query below we're searching for the resource name "rosies" the actual record in the database was entered as "rosy's". the search returns (rosies,rosie's,rosys) and does not return ---> rosy's <--- the record i'm interested in
it is reasonable to expect rosy's to be returned in the result set? my query should retunn the max fuzzy expansions and all fuzzy scores.
select score(1), nm_resource, ADDR_RSRC_ST_LN_1, id_resource, ADDR_RSRC_CITY FROM caps_resource where
CONTAINS (nm_resource,'fuzzy(rosies, 0, 5000, weight)',1)>0
union
select /*+index(caps_resource ind_caps_resource_8)*/ 10, nm_resource, ADDR_RSRC_ST_LN_1, id_resource, ADDR_RSRC_CITY from caps_resource
where NM_RESOURCE_UPPER like upper(replace(replace('%' || 'rosies' || '%',' '), '-'))
and rownum<500 order by 1 DESC;
any help explaining this is much appriciated.
Regards,

When you index "Rosy's", by default it sees the apostropohe as a delimiter and tokenizes and indexes "Rosy" and "s" separately. So, you could only find it by searching the singular form or the singular form obtained by using stemming. However, if you set the apostrophoe as a skipjoin, then it tokenizes and indexes "Rosys" as one token that you can then search for that using "rosies":. Please see the demonstration below. You might also be interested in soundex, which can be used with Oracle Text, or the functions in the utl_match package or metaphone.

Spotlight search not appearing in ios7 when swiping down

The spotlight search box is supposed to appear in IOS7 when you swipe down on the home screen or within apps, but it doesn't. When I swipe down, I get the notification centre and that's all. In my settings- general - spotlight search, all apps shown are checked. Spotlight search is nowhere to be found. How do I access spotlight search in IOS7?

Tap anywhere on your background...just not near the top or bottom edges...and swipe down. Spotlight should appear from the top of your screen and you can type in what you're searching for.

LYNC 2013, Exchange 2013 / OWA presence not updating from calendar entries

Have a test environment of LYNC 2013 and EXCHANGE 2013.
No software clients - pure OWA access.
IM works within OWA and I can manually set availability which is seen correctly by other users. What does not happen is any calendar entries - they do not update the presence status (ie. does not go to busy when in a meeting ).
I did install Lync client 2013 and that did work ( and updated OWA ) - but I want a pure web environment without the need for additional software based clients.
Can this work? If so is there anything that can be checked to see where the issue is?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Maybe it's my misunderstanding. Did you mean you don’t want additional software based clients (including Lync client 2013)?
If you don’t install a Lync client on user workstations, you cannot see presence of Lync users from OWA.
What’s more, for Lync side, if you do not install Lync client software the only way to use Lync is Lync Web App (a browser-based meeting client). Lync Web App only support to join Lync Meetings. However, Lync meeting cannot schedule by Lync Web App and OWA.
Here is a link about Lync Web App may help you:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/lync-help/what-is-lync-web-app-HA103699740.aspx
If you want to create Lync Meetings but don’t have Microsoft Outlook you can use Lync Web Scheduler (a web-based program)
