Can't search event in iCal Leopard

After upgraded to Leopard, the search function in iCal doesn't work. When typing a event title in the search field, the search pan appears with empty contents. Does anybody get the same result?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5)

Yup, I'm having the same problems over here.

Entering the exact word in a timed event title that's right in front of me leads to a search results panel without that event listed. At all.

Seriously, this is not good.

It's bad enough they took away the info drawer, but stuff not coming up correctly when searching just compounds the crapiness of it all 😟

Is everyone searching Ical without problems now ?

I've been working through the weekend searching for a solid solution or explanation for the problem referred to here. I've tried every solution mentioned.

If you had no Ical search at all after an upgrade to 10.5 and fixed it please share your solution.

I still have nothing and need to search and edit my events.

Thanks to everyone for their input.

The search works after doing a new Index. But the problem comes right back when I transfer my iCal data from one machine to another by way of a USB flash memory stick and I have to index again. If I use .Mac to sync the data between machines, the search function works perfectly.

In my case, It looks like it is related to the form of the data on the memory stick.
