Outlook & iCloud contact search
Hello,
Is it possible to search both outlook and iCloud contacts in a single search, or do you
need to specify the contact container/option you want to search in?
Have a user who has a Outlook email account, and we've added his iCloud account by creating a new IMAP account.
Outlook:
- 2013 (64 bit)
- Windows 7 (64 bit)
In Outlook, he is clicking on "People" (bottom of the outlook folder list)
In the next window, it shows both "My Contacts" (outlook), and "iCloud"
He clicks w/in the Search field, and then clicks on "All Contact items"
He enters in a name into the search field but it will only search the contact source
that is pre-selected. It will not search in both.

Hi,
Unfortunately you cannot search all the contacts when you preselected some specified folder in the contacts navigation pane. You should go to particular selected folder to view contacts, Go to the Contacts navigation pane and select the "Contacts - iCloud" folder to view your contacts.
I suggest you to post this as suggestion/feedback for adding feature through User Voice, to improve it and provide the best possible experience.
