When you use the ability on Temples of Gisei Toshi or on K´mee to look at your fate deck.
a) if you find the desired card, do you shuffle the remaining cards?
b) if you don´t find the desired card, do you shuffle the remaining cards?
Thanks

The answer is "no" to both a) and b).
Both K'mee (Experienced 2, that is; please specify when asking questions in the Rules forum) and Temples of Gisei Toshi instruct you to "look" at the cards, not "search". Reshuffling is a mechanic specifically tied to "searching".
http://rules.l5r.com/Glossary_S#Search: "All effects that search decks for cards also shuffle the deck after the found card (if any) leaves the deck. If the card is not found, the deck is still shuffled immediately after searching. These rules does not apply to effects that look at cards in a deck without using the term “search.” See Glossary, Look....
...Effects that let you only "look" at certain cards in a deck (such as the top card, bottom card, or top five cards) are not considered to be "searching" the deck."
