Public bug reported:

1.1.0(2015-06-02_01:00nightly)/Windows6.1/Java8(64)1.8.0_45-b15
OS: Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit

+++ running this Java
java version "1.8.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_45-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.45-b02, mixed mode)

Outlook:
Microsoft Outlook 2013 (15.0.4719.1000) 32 bit

Description: 
The code snippet below cannot focus on an already opened (not minimized) Outlook instance. (I use it as a test to try nightly versions.) A few applications can be switched to, but O365 apps generally cannot. (The image file is a little icon from the application window, that is always present if the window can be seen.)

The output is "If you have...", so ol != None, but the window is not
brought to the front. Another interesting subject is the highlighted
region, usually the last focused window.

-----

Debug.on(3)

ol = switchApp('Outlook')
wait(2)
if ol == None or not ol.window():
    popError("Still cannot use the switchApp() / focus() function... :(")
    exit(1)

try:
    mol = find("1433249332978.png")
    popup("switchApp() / focus() works! :)")
except:
    ol.focusedWindow().highlight()
    popup("If you have Outlook window on top, then switchApp() / focus() works,\n" \ 
            "but find() cannot see it...")

Additional comments:
I am now using a workaround to get the focus working:

import os

def focusAppWorkaround(titlePart):
    os.system(r'"C:\Full\path\to\appactivate.vbs" "' + titlePart + '"')


' appactivate.vbs
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Param0 = ""
If (WScript.Arguments.Count > 0) Then
  Param0 = WScript.Arguments.Item(0)
  objShell.AppActivate Param0
End If
