Before rebuilding the Spotlight index

  • Follow the steps for when Spotlight returns unexpected results.
  • If you're having difficulty finding items in the Mail app, follow the steps to rebuild Mailboxes in Mail.

Rebuild the Spotlight index

  1. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Spotlight.
  2. Click the Privacy tab.
  3. Drag the disk or folder that you want to index again to the list of locations that Spotlight is prevented from searching. Or click the add button (+) and select the disk or folder to add.

    You can add an item to the Privacy tab only if you have ownership permissions for that item. To learn about permissions, choose Help from the Finder menu bar, then search for 'permissions.'
  4. From the same list of locations, select the disk or folder that you just added. Then click the remove button (–) to remove it from the list.

Outlook For Mac 2011 Folder Contains Excess Whitespace Failure Throttled

Original KB number: 2768656

Symptoms

If you have lots of items in any single folder, you may experience symptoms such as the following in Microsoft Outlook:

Outlook For Mac 2011 Folder Contains Excess Whitespace In Excel

  • When you use Cached Exchange Mode or an Outlook data (.pst) file, you notice performance issues when you perform certain actions.
  • You experience decreased performance in Outlook if the Inbox, Calendar, Tasks, Sent Items, and Deleted Items folders contain lots of items.
  • Calendar performance is inconsistent. For example, meeting updates may not be reflected in the primary, shared or delegated Calendar.

If you have lots of mail folders, you may experience performance issues such as the following:

  • Folders are not displayed correctly, or they take a long time to appear, especially in cached mode.
  • If your Outlook profile has shared mailboxes and has caching enabled (Download Shared Folders is selected), folder synchronization issues, performance issues, and other problems occur if the number of shared folders per mailbox exceeds 500, as described in Performance and synchronization problems when you work with folders in a secondary mailbox in Outlook. Additionally, errors are logged in the Sync Issues folder and '9646' events are logged in the Application log.
  • In extreme cases, if there are more than 10,000 folders, Outlook is very slow to open. This behavior occurs because it takes a long time to enumerate the folders.

Cause

This problem may occur if you have folders that exceed the limit for the number of items per folder or if you have too many folders total. The limits for Outlook 2019, Outlook 2016, Outlook 2013, and Outlook 2010 are as follows:

  • 100,000 items per folder
  • 5,000 items per Calendar folder

Outlook For Mac 2011 Folder Contains Excess Whitespace

Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it, back up the registry for restoration in case problems occur.

If you have folders that exceed the limit for the number of items in an Outlook data (.pst) file or an offline Outlook data (.ost) file, move items from the larger folders to separate or smaller folders in the same mailbox or data file. Optionally, if you have a Microsoft Exchange online archive, you can move items to that archive.

If you have exceeded the recommended limit of 5,000 total Calendar items, use any of the following methods to reduce the number of items that you have.

Method 1

If you have enabled Online Archive Mailbox, archive items to the Online Archive Mailbox.

Method 2

Apply a Retention Policy on the Calendar folder to delete items from this folder. (For example: Any item that is not modified within one year moves to the Deleted Items folder.)

Method 3

In Sync Window Settings, adjust the number of months of data that are synced for the primary shared calendars. To do this, add the following registry keys.

Note

This method applies to Version 1810 or later version of Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise (Click-to-Run).

DescriptionSetting to enable Calendar Sync window
Registry PathHKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice16.0OutlookCached Mode
NameCalendarSyncWindowSetting
TypeREG_DWORD
ValueValue = 0 Inactive
Value = 1 Primary Calendar folder
Value = 2 All Calendar folders
Defaults to 0 if not set
DescriptionSetting to control the number of months in the Calendar Sync window
Registry PathHKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice16.0OutlookCached Mode
NameCalendarSyncWindowSettingMonths
TypeREG_DWORD
ValueValue = Choose decimal value to select how many months in the Calendar sync window such as 1, 3, 6, or 12
Defaults to 6 if not set
DescriptionSetting to control whether to keep all recurring items instead of filtering them
Registry PathHKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice16.0OutlookCached Mode
NameCalendarSyncWindowAllRecurring
TypeREG_DWORD
Value0

These registry keys update the sync restriction so that the Cached Mode client downloads fewer Calendar items, even for a Calendar that has multiple years of history on the server. These keys don't clean up older Calendar content that was already downloaded. However, this method can be effective if you're willing to clear offline items and resync your Calendar (instead of bulk deleting old items). If you already have the Calendar in the profile, you have to clear the Offline Items after you set the registry keys and restart Outlook.

To clear offline Calendar items, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Calendar pane in Outlook, then right-click the Calendar folder.
  2. Select Properties.
  3. On the General tab, select Clear Offline Items.
  4. Select OK.

Additionally, you can use the Support and Recovery Assistant (SaRA) for Office 365 to diagnose issues that affect Outlook. (The tool works for both programs.)

To download and install the tool, go to the following Microsoft website:

In the tool, run the Outlook Diagnostic under the Advanced Diagnostics section to determine the cause of the performance issue.

To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Calendar pane in Outlook, then right-click the Calendar folder.
  2. Select Properties.
  3. On the General tab, select Show total number of items.
  4. Select the Synchronization tab.
  5. View the count under View statistics for this folder.

Outlook uses an .ost file only if the Exchange email account is configured to use Cached Exchange Mode. When Outlook is configured to connect to the Exchange mailbox in online mode, an .ost file is not used. If your Outlook client is connected to Exchange in online mode, and you do not have high item-count folders in a .pst file, the performance issue may be occurring on the server.
