Is there a way to search contact list by keyboard

is there a way to search the contacts list with the keyboard rather than scrolling down via letters? i have like 2000 contacts and some letters are really long. would be much better if there was a search box (like that for SMS) where I could input letters via the keyboard.
does that exist? have i missed it?

That feature is not available

Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice

Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice.
I'm fixing a Numbers document that I use in business daily that's become overly complicated, but while I want to clear/delete a number of cells in it to clean it up, I'm not sure if those cells are being used as source for other formulas on the page. I don't have to open all my formulas one by one to see if that cell is in there, do I?! That'd be a huge amount of work if I wanted to eliminate say 10 cells to search each formula on the page to see if it is in there or watch all the cells when I delete that cell to see if the numbers change! There's got to be an easier way! Right click doesn't seem to be any help.
I don't want to damage my daily tool to make it cleaner and reorganize it. Is there really no way to do a reverse look-up of which formulas a particular cell is in?! Any time I click on a formula it highlights all the CELLS in that formula. Why can't I (or can I?) do the reverse and see all the FORMULAS that contain a particular cell?
As a Numbers document ages or gets used frequently, you can sometimes forget which cells are tied to which formulas. You just look for the results of your formulas. Would be a nice thing to be able to do. Thoughts? Work-arounds? Answers?

Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
=T20+1
but also in
=SUM(T)
=SUM(20:20)
=SUM(S19:U22)
=OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
=INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

Is there a way to search for photographs that are missing?

I have discovered that some shots that I thought had been imported from iphoto are in fact missing (when I go to open them there is a badge with the yield sign and an exclamation point in it)
I don't think this is the end of the world as I have the original files in various places and can import them (I guess)
but is there a way to search to find all the shots that are missing?
right now I'm having to scroll through the whole database in the list format and I have a lot of shots. can't seem to figure out how to do a search for missing shots…

1. Create a smart album and in the drop down in the top right corner select file status
2. Check mark the file status box and select 'Offline'
Now you should have all your 'Offline' (Yellow Exclamation and/or Red Slash) files.
To reconnect..
1. Select the missing files.
2. Go to File and scroll to Manage Referenced Files
The dialog box will have one of the photos selected
3. Select the drive and folder that contains the referenced file and select it
4. Click 'Reconnect All'
This might not reconnect all of them, but the dialog box will still be open and you can reconnect the ones left.

Is there a way to see a list of songs bought via iTunes?

here's the situation...I was updating a friends iphone, it backed up and all was going well until it hung up in the middle and iTunes closed. I had to reset the phone (can't rememebr the term) anyway all contacts came back but not all the apps or songs that she bought with the phone. Is there a way to get a list of songs bought to the phone from iTunes so she can just put them back on. OR since the phone did backup to the computer where are they on the computer??
Thanks,
Mike

In iTunes on the computer, you can pull up your account (forget which menu item up top). From there you can pull up purchase history. It pulls what Apple has on record for you.

I have huge lag with Safari's Reading List using a rMBP. I have probably 80 articles saved, which is likely the cause of the lag. Is there any way to export that list of articles so as to be able to delete them from Reading List but still have a record?

I'm currently dealing with this issue myself, except that my rMBP has NO articles in the reading list. It's a brand new rMBP too, purchased just this week, with the 2.6 Ghz Processor & 16GB of RAM.
Let's see what we can find. I may just take it back to the Apple Store.

Thanks to all.

Actually, I noticed in "More Like This" questions similar to mine. One of the suggestions worked perfectly.
Command Shift 4 turns the arrow into a target scope. Use it to take a screen shot of the area you want printed. Thanks to all.

Is there a way to make a list of songs that I plan on buying in the future?

I constantly see songs that I want to buy on the iTunes store, but then end up forgetting them before I get money to buy them. Is there a way to make a list on the store so that when I come back in the future, I can just pick the songs off of that list?

Sure, pen & paper will work, but if it's in a wishlist, you just click on the arrow and don't have to type things all over again.

Is there a way of making contacts in CS4???

Is there a way of making contacts in CS4??? I can't find it and I have to go back to CS3 every time I have to give proofs to my clients. I hope is not taken out from the program.

Hey Dan,
I've found the "PS CS4 goodie" folder on the adobe site and installed the contact sheet II option into the automate area - you should be able to do the same and save the actions set you use in CS3 then bring the set into CS4 and get what you need with out having to keep going back into CS3. It's just not practical for me to have a set of contacts in pdf format, it's definitely a step backwards for me.
I'd hoped for an improvement, currently I drag the custom sized sheets I've got it generating as tiff files onto another tiff template I've set up, so I can include a title etc on the actual print out - but this is time consuming. I hope you dont mind me asking but how did you edit yours with actions? I'd love to automate the process but not sure how as each title is different as per the job, and I like to add page numbers.
Apologies for the rambling rant, hope you get sorted Dan.

Is there a way to search several keywords at a time on the top right search box?

Hello.
Let's say I want all the images to appear that have any of these keywords: "sky, mountain, water". The only way I have figured out it takes too long and it's tedious. I open the "find" window and manually add search variables to look for several keywords and file names for the values that I am looking for.
Isn't there a way to search for files that have any of the keywords I write on the search box by dividing these keywords with commas or any other puntuation? Or am I stuck opening the "find" window and add rows of variables that I want to search?

I really do hope you are part of the development team for the Bridge.
If only…
I'm just a user like you and almost all other participants. Steve (SG) is one of the very helpful Adobe Engineers who occasionally hang around every now and then but they do so out of personal interest and kindness. They also try to be a shortcut to the Bridge engineers, it is no company policy to interact directly with developers on this user to user forum...
But if I was responsible for resources for the Bridge development team they already would have had loads of money to realize my perfect Bridge and this process would have started from CS3 and above…. but as said, I'm just a humble photographer with no knowledge at all in programming applications and by far not enough money to realize this dream app
Regarding your Find comments, I do realize there are some extra actions needed and the less you can make the better it would be. However as said, I don't know of any DAM application capable of what you want.
It is kind of looking into a database and that needs separate criteria to my knowledge. If I had to use the search function that much I would look for a dedicated Digital Asset Manager to do this tasks.
I'm not very deep in to knowledge about DAM but I use Canto Cumulus Single user for my Archive which is much faster then Bridge (Bridge is much better in other tasks so I need both).
In Canto you can create a query to customize your own search needs in a better way but this needs some extra knowledge and study, I have only 65 K of files in my archive and searching is not that difficult using the normal route of quick find.
And to comfort you a little, both Bridge and Canto do reopen the find menu with the last settings which is still not ideal but saves a bit of moves. Having the option to save templates like in batch rename would be a big plus but it is not an option yet.
And of course, you can also put in a feature request for this:

Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
#type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
#if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
#Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
#in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
#close the about:config tab and test
#See:

About Google toolbar............
Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

Is there a way to search Numbers for UNCHECKED checkboxes?

Hi,
I'm attempt to build a spreadsheet to track incoming payments from various sources. I'm using checkboxes to confirm when a payment has been received. The question is: is there a way to search for unchecked checkboxes so that I can find instances where a payment has not been received?
Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Wyatt,
I agree with Jerry's suggestion that entering the date of payment rather than checking a checkbox is a better means of tracking the payments.
For either entry method, you can use conditional formatting to highlight unpaid rows.
For checkboxes, use Text is FALSE for the rule.
For dates, use Text does not contain 2013.
Examples are shown for both types of payment record:

Barry
