Windows 7 x64 - outlook 2010 - search does not work

Hi,
I have a sbs 2011 essentials, and 5 workstations win 7 pro 64 bits.
On one of these Workstation (and not the others), searching for a text in mails in Outlook doesn't work. System tells indexing is in progress. No text can be found (even the sender of a mail displayed on the screen).
Antivirus is MS Security Essentials. The mailbox is not very big.
No Windows live account, mails are stored on the LAN (sbs server).
=> Indexing status: shows everything is indexed (0 remaining).
=> delete/rebuild index then reboot: no change.
=> tried chkdsk /f: no change (and no error found)
=> deleted temp files. No change.
=> checked indexed contents. Outlook, office Note, and a few (small folders). Appdata is excluded from c:\users.
=> Tried when disabling Security Essentials Real-Time protection, no change.
It seems that either text indexing blocks / freezes on a file (perhaps the last one, perhaps due to something else like Antivirus), either doesn't tell Outlook/Windows that indexing is finished.
Is there any way to see where this indexing tool stops? To force it to continue, ...?
Regards,
Alain

  • IPhone4 MS Outlook 2010 Sync - DOES NOT WORK

    Syncing between MS Outlook and iPhone4 Contacts and Calendars does not work. Is there a fix for this? Music and videos sync, but anything related to MS Outlook 2010 does not.
    Help! Any fixes or suggestions. I want to keep my iPhone4 and not toss it.
    Computer OS: Windows 7 64 bit, MS Office 2010 Ver: 14.0.5128.5000 (32-bit. iPhone4 Version: 4.3.1 (8G4).

    My life and contacts are in the hands of MS Outlook 2010. I need to get a new smart phone that will sync with Outlook. I was shocked to see that Windows Phones running Windows Mobile 7 and having the latest version of MS Office Mobile WILL NOT sync contacts with MS Office Outlook 2010 running on one's PC. There is a very limited work around using a Hotmail account, but it will only work with a relatively small number of contacts (I have 3,500!).
    To what extent does the iPhone 4 sync using the procedure you outlined above? Does it sync 100% of all info in your MS Outlook contacts? For example, does it sync "Categories" and "Groups" information? Also, does the sync work both ways? I.e, does a new or updated contact in one device update the other, regardless of whether the change was originally entered into the iPhone 4 or the computer on which one has MS Outlook 2010?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It might be the graphic driver not compitable with the graphic device.  Has there been a change to the graphic driver?
    One thing you can try is to uninstall graphic driver and download the latest from Windows Update (if you haven't tried this).  Here are the possible steps:
    1.  Go to Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Device Manager,  uninstall the graphic card driver by right clicking and select "uninstall".  Make sure the option "Delete the driver software for this device" is selected.
    2.  Reboot the system.
    3.  Go to Control Panel->System and Security->Windows Update, click on "Optional updates" and find the driver for g210 and do the update.
    I work on behalf o HP.

    So, yes, you need to get a sim card.

  • I just downloaded (updated) Firefox to V 20.0.1 now the "search" does not work, either via the mouse click or the enter key. Windows XP.

    Updated to latest version, V 20.0.1 Now when on the home page the "search" does not function with mouse click or the enter key. Currently running XP Service pack 3. I also have the same problem (after same firefox update at home with my HP laptop running Windows 7.

    You can check if you still have the XML files of the default search engines including Google in the searchplugins folder in Firefox program folder.<br />
    If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.
    Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    Try to delete the search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • Installing Firefox with windows 7 64bit mode just does not work.

    I have windows 7 64bit mode. I cannot install firefox, it crashes all the time when I open it. I know the problem is because my windows 7 is in 64bit mode. Can you (firefox support) or someone on this forum provide the simple and easy steps of getting it to work. Also can you (firefox) hurry up and release a 64bit version. I'm using google chrome and crazy browser as they seem to have no problems at all. I really want to use firefox but it just won't set up for me because I'm running win7 64bit mode. If I was running win7 32bit mode I wouldn't be having any issues. Has anyone out there got a simple step by step solution for this? It it mind boggling that with todays technology no one has a simple fix for this issue. Help!!!!!

    I have been running Win 7 64 bit on an HP Pavilion lap for several months. The whole browser thing has been a nightmare. My work involves heavy duty internet research. Firefox crashes every few minutes. There is no specific event I can find that kicks this off, but running the latest Flash Players and Adobe Reader makes it a lot worse. In fact, I had to set up the adobe reader to not run within the Firefox window. I had to back off to an old version of adobe Reader and Flash Player to accomplish this. I love Firefox. I was disappointed to have to uninstall it as it was impossible to run searches with it.
    So then it proved to be that IE either version 8 or 9 was even worse. I could not keep it up long enough to run a search.
    So I installed Chrome which has some nice features, but it also crashes, albeit more gracefully so I do not lose my place and it makes a quick recovery but there are many online applications where Chrome just does not work.
    My son also has Win7 64 bit and says he is also having the same problems.
    I want my Firefox back! Please fix it.

  • Satellite Pro A200 Windows XP, 4Gb SDHC Card does not work.

    Hi,
    I have had a Satellite Pro A200 installed with Windows XP, SP2 for some time - No problems there, a great piece of kit. However I recently have bought a new camera and splashed out on a Kingston 4Gb SDHC card. The manual for my A200 seemes to indicate that it my laptop is compatible with SDHC cards to 4Gb however when I push the card in the LED flashes blue briefly and then nothing happens. My SDHC card does not appear to be recognised by the system.
    I see no errors in my OS event log and I have checked the slots operation by trying an older 512Mb SD card and that works fine.
    Can anybody offer any help please?
    For reference this laptop is a Model PSAE4E A200.
    Many Thanks in advance
    Simon

  • Address Book SEARCH does not work anymore

    Since the last week or so, my "Address Book" does not search at all anymore for any contacts on iCloud (which is where I have all my contacts). I saw others had a similar problem, and that one person was able to fix it -> https://discussions.apple.com/message/17417340?searchText=Address%20Book%20SEARC H%20does%20not%20work%20anymore#17417340 -> but this fix does not work for me. Interestingly it searches if I have contacts "On my Mac", which I usually don't.
    I tried exporting my address book and re-inporting it (replacing all contacts), but it did not change anything.
    Was anyone able to fix this besides the person in the above linked discussion?

    YEEHAH !!!
    I HAD THE SAME "SEARCH" ISSUE, HOWEVER I AM NOT USING iCLOUD... so my situation was yet slightly different I guess, I tried a bunch of things (exporting, reimporting etc.. Nothing worked..).
    FINALLY WHAT WORKED WAS: I deleted everything in the Application Support/AddressBook EXCEPT the Metadata folder. When I relaunched AddressBook.. everything worked fine again, searches etc.. and all icons even reappeared I guess they are also kept with the metadata info not jsut the images folder since I had deleted it) .. and all my contacts from Facebook that I had synched using Cobook and some other utility before that are also there...
    I've also played around with CoBook again.. to make sure things were stable, and so far they are.
    HOWEVER.. iCloud scares me... so I'll refrain from playing with that for now

  • *BUG* Open Parameters Partial Search Does Not Work

    Similar question: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1773556
    Quite simply, using the open parameter #search=<keyword list> does not work at all if the search terms are partial matches.
    For example, if a document contains:
    abcdefg
    abcdef
    abcde
    abcd
    If I use the open parameter #search="abc", this will return ZERO results.
    If I use the open parameter #search="abcd", this will return ONE result.
    Is this intended? Is this a bug? Is Adobe going to respond to this?

    It isn't a bug. Read the documentation:

    Toshiba Power Saver is only for XP installations, you can't install the XP Drivers (and most Vista Drivers) in Windows 7.
    Make sure all your drivers are for the A660, and make sure they are for Windows 7.
