Outlook 2012 custom search folder

[Joe Mezzanini]

I created a custom search folder in Outlook 2012 and the folder is on the botom of my folder list.

How the heck do I move any custom folders up to the top ? Maybe even above the inbox folder 

(some above and some below)

thanks,

Mezz

Joe you cannot move it above the Inbox but if you left click and drag and drop it above where it is, you should be able to move it anywhere else. You also can drag it to your Favorites on the very top, just not above the Inbox.

It does nothing  - what is it suppose to do..?

Right click any folder say "Inbox". Do you see "Show in Favorites" and if you do click on it.

Any and all folders in Outlook can be dragged just about anywhere you want to put them = and if you really want a favorites just create one with a right click where you want it.

That has worked with all versions back to 95? and 2010 the last time I looked.

Don't know about 2012 though, I'm still stuck in the land of Outlook 2000 while keeping 8 customers happy.
At least they no longer use 8" floppies on their IBM's.

Well, SEARCH FOLDERS (not to be confused with regular folders) cannot be moved anywhere.

Every search folder you make ends up below a folder called "Search Folders"- You can't move these, but you should be able to right click on one or some and then select ADD TO FAVORITES. Since I  have no Favorites file I cannot do that.

 

Also, if I simply create a folder called "Favorites" - I end up with a simple folder that is just that. It does not have the characteristics of the actual Favorites folder. According to the Outlook help section - users can turn the Favorites folder on and off.  But that doesn't work for me either.

I might try this today  http://goo.gl/taeYG

Case Closed.

Fixed by IT guys ...

Don't know what they did.

Maybe a group policy setting or something
