I have a new MBP M1, with fresh Monterey. I moved my data with the assistant from the old MBP, I have all the letters in Outlook (v15.46), but search in Outlook not works, it gives a "No results found" message in all folders. Old methods for reindex Spotlight is not working (eg. add and remove Main Profile to Spotlight). How can I solve this problem? Thanks
Does search work for Outlook in Office 365? I am using Outlook for Mac 16.16.27. Is it time to upgrade? — king17 less than a minute ago Edit this post
Same problem here. New MBP 14" with Monterey 12.0.1. Outlook search without any results. About to raise a ticket on MSFT, as Spotlight search finds emails, but not in Outlook, also tried rebuild of search and new Outlook Profile now good.
I have the same Outlook search issue on my recently migrated user profile. I tried all the tricks outlined in the forums ... to no avail. However, when I create a new user, and set up Outlook (with the same email address) the search works without problems.
So, the search issue is linked to a user migrated profile. Hopefully Microsoft / Apple solve the issue soon.
new MPB, monterey 12.01, outlook 16.55. just to keep this on the radar, same problem, search not working on email or contacts, can see them in spotlight Tried all the spotlight tricks, reinstalled outlook 365. nothing works. Microsoft tech help unable to provide fix, if you can get hold of them....
I have exactly the same problem with brand new MBP 14"....missing the e-mail search option is making work harder
Same problem. 2021 MBP 14" running Monterey 12.0.1
If you are using Outlook 2021 try toggling on "New Outlook" - is right below the Search window. For me this fixes the Search function. I do not like some of the ways the new interface works so have kept it turned off but it does seem to fix the search function.
Switching to "New Outlook" resolved the issue for me, seach now works Outlook 16.55 (21111400) 1.0.1 Montery
Switching to "New Outlook" resolved the issue for me, search now works Outlook 16.55 (21111400) Montery 12.0.1. But I do not like new outlook, now being forced to used
Hi all, I don't believe there is a fix if you want to stay with Outlook 2016. However, I updated to the latest software with Office 365 and it is working fine again. I am also using the "New" Outlook toggle. So there is a fix, it just might not be suitable for people who don't have an office subscription.
I guys, i have this same exact issue. i'm on macOS 12.0.1 Microsoft outlook for mac 16.55 I do not see a toggle for new outlook, my hosting is a pop account.
Anyone got a this to work?
same problem here but finally found what works for me. I reindexed, I removed my account and added it again, I even migrated my laptop all over again and nothing. Finally what worked was instead of adding the "Main Profile" to the privacy list to reindex..I added the "Macintosh HD" to the privacy list, restarted my laptop, then went back to the privacy tab, removed "Macintosh HD" and then let my laptop sit for about an hour(make sure it doesn't turn off) and FINALLY FINALLY it works. I can search my emails on outlook. If you click on finder, on the list on the left under locations, right click on Macintosh HD "show enclosing folder" then you will see Macintosh HD with the disk image next to it. drag that to the privacy tab. Really hope this helps you all. I spent 2 long days trying to get this figured out. I am using MBPro 16" Monterey 12.0.1 16.55 version outlook. and I kept the old outlook, not the new one.

I ran into this same issue on a migration to a new MBP running Montery. I tried all the standard things, but the final fix for me was to reindex '~/Library/Group\ Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/Outlook/Outlook\ 15\ Profiles/' using the spotlight privacy adding and removing. Worth a try if nothing else is working for you
