I just wanted to share my findings on this issue. I am experiencing the same thing as all of you. I thought that the issue was related to 4.4.3 so I went back to 4.4.2 but the issue is still here. One thing I noticed is that voice search is unaffected. Voice search works just fine in Google Now and the Search Bar. For some reason when using the keyboard I get "Can not load search results". Force closing Google Search will fix the problem temporarily but it always comes back.

This is really annoying and I hope there is a fix soon.

No this is related to the Search app. My Nexus 5 is on 4.4.3 and my Nexus 7 is on 4.4.2 and they both encounter this problem.

Yeah that is what I realized. Like I said I went back to 4.4.2 and still have the same problem. It is odd that voice search still works though.

Also Google Search has not been updated since May 6th and this just started happening to me yesterday. Must be something on the backend at Google, I don't think it the app its self.

I had the same issue yesterday but after I cleared data from search it's been good. Not sure if that's an actual "fix" but it's still working today :)

Same problem, same symptoms. Uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared data, etc...worked once and then recurred. MANY people on the google+ forum reporting this, with many different phones, android versions. How ironic is it that Google Search is broken? This is a major bug, and one has to wonder if it's the result of outside tampering.

I have been through this backwards forwards and sideways. Everything from master resetting, data managememt, debugging, and permissions, etc. I landed on an odd fix. Using an alternate google account for Google now has had me working for some time. I can't seem to find any other consistent cause other than the imminent possibility that you are right. I'm thinking outside tampering that Google isn't releasing updates about. Something related to account compromise...... food for thought....

People actually use Google Now?

Wow, I thought it was just Google's way of sticking it to us for allowing them to rummage through our personal mail like that's somehow okay.

I cleared the cache from Google Search, Google Play and Google Now. Then one by one reactivated them. I have discovered that the problem is with Google Now. Simply DEACTIVATE Google Now and Google Search works fine. Google needs to address the Google Now programming problem but until then you can SEARCH!!

I had this problem on a Nexus 6. I stumbled onto this thread and uninstalling the updates to the Google app, like VAVA Mk2 suggested worked great. Thank you!
