The top right uses Spotlight. Check to see if there are any files at this directory: ~/Library/Caches/Metadata/Microsoft/Entourage/. Is the Entourage Database Daemon (Office Notifications) turned on? Spotlight will index any cache files the Entourage daemon has created even if the daemon is not launched, but no new cache files will be created until the daemon is launched again. If the Microsoft Sync daemon never launches, there's no way for Entourage to sync data with Sync Services. The preferences in Entourage for Sync Services basically control 1) if this daemon app is launched and 2) where it should sync data to-from. Is the Sync Services preference disabled in Entourage? If you look at Activity Monitor, is there an app called "Microsoft Sync" running (or runs when you modify something in the Entourage calendar in iCal)? Office 2008: Install two files: Microsoft Office.mdimporter in the root Library/Spotlight folder and the Microsoft Entourage.mdimporter in the package: "Microsoft Entourage.app/Contents/Library/Spotlight" bundle Do you have Mail Messages. Contacts, Events & To Do Items selected in Spotlight System Preferences? These options do not apply to just Apple's applications. The second search box has popups like Name contains.
