Re: Spotlight Search not functioning for iPhone?? go to settings>general>spotlight search
make sure the items that you wanted to be included in the search is checked.Life was much simpler when Apple and Blackberry were just fruits.

Re: Spotlight Search not functioning for iPhone?? This is a common problem with the iPhone 4s. Was able to resolve this by doing a manual restore in iTunes. HTH.

Re: Spotlight Search not functioning for iPhone?? Mine sometimes does that. Rebooting (turning iPhone off then on) fixes it for me.
