10.8 Finder no longer lists Today and Yesterday

I just upgraded to 10.8    Two very useful features of 10.6 Finder have gone:
(1) the list of files created/modified  Today - Yesterday - Last Week    .... how can I get that back?
(2) the ability to search for a name-string within filenames ONLY i.e. I do NOT want an enormous list of files CONTAINING the string, just those files with the string within the filename.    How can I get this filename-search feature back?

You can create a new smart folder which will appear in the sidebar and choose last date opened or last day modified or date created.Also you can choose the kind of file and include all your files in the mac or  also the ones you have in icloud.
is lot to choose there...
The folders today etc isn't there for default like in Lion but in Mountain Lion you can create smart folders and is like almost the same.
Hope it help.
Here is a few screenshots to help you .. I am sure you know it ..

  • History is only listing "today" and "yesterday" websites. How to get longer history

    Firefox is my default on my new windows 7. I am only able to keep history for "today and yesterday" If I use IE, then a complete history is maintained. EX: today, yesterday, last week, 2 weeks ago, etc. I called Dell and they said it was a firefox setting needs to be changed. I can't figure out what to do

    '''''Firefox Settings > Privacy'''''. About the middle of the page is the label;
    '''History.''' Next to '''Firefox will''', select;
    '''Use custom settings for history'''.<BR><BR>
    Deselect '''Always use private''' if it is on.<BR>
    Select '''Remember browser / download history.'''<BR>
    <BR>If you want, you can decide how the other setting should be.<BR><BR>
    If you want, select; '''Clear history when Firefox closes'''. Then, press the

    set this up as you wish. On mine, I only have the '''clear cache''' option on.

  • Email Drafts in Mavericks using Today and Yesterday

    I have email DRAFTS folder set up so the most recent DATE Saved Draft is on top.  This was working perfectly until a couple weeks ago.
    Today is 7/2/14. The DATE for a draft from yesterday should be "7/1/14" and instead it is listed as YESTERDAY.
    A DRAFT from today should be 7/2/14 and instead it is listed as TODAY.
    I have 50 drafts in DRAFTS (don't yell - it works for me).
    I thought I was losing drafts and have been REDOING work that I thought was lost !!!
    Drafts that Mavericks mail marks as TODAY and YESTERDAY, appear WAY DOWN in the my Chrono list - not at the TOP where they belong and where they used to be when they had REAL DATES and not word names: TODAY and YESTERDAY.
    I now know the work is NOT lost and how to find it.  Can someone pls restore REAL Chrono Date Order to DRAFTS?  Thank you!!
    PS: a similar issue is occurring in FINDER... where CHRONO is no longer CHRONO due to WORDS where DATES belong.

    I used to export my old messages using a smart mailbox as my corporate account also has a size limitation.
    Upgrading to Mail 7.0 broke exporting of smart mailboxes. I was using a workaround to archive the mail and then export the Archive mailbox instead which worked.
    With the latest update to build 1822, archiving of Exchange messages appears broken as well. Smart mailbox exporting still broken too.
    I modified my workaround as follows:
    1. Create a mailbox under "On My Mac" called Archive.
    2. Select all messages in my smart mailbox.
    3. Drag the messages to the On My Mac folder under Archive as created in step 1 above.
    4. Highlight the On My Mac Folder under Archive.
    5. Choose Mailbox, then Export Mailbox and browse to a folder where you want the mbox file created and choose the folder.
    Next time you just follow steps 2 through 5 of course.
    Seems like the long way around to me and I'm annoyed that I have to keep changing my workaround as Apple breaks features in their mail program.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mail 4.5 not showing any dates other than "Today" and "Yesterday"

    All of my mail messages are dates 5-01-13 except thos that are "Yesterday" ort "today.  The settings in my System Preferences are correct and all other programs are O.K.  Only mail seems to be the problem.  Any ideas?

    Hi there,
    I'm also having this exact problem. I have Mail 6.6 running on Macbook air 11" OS X 10.8.
    All the emails apart from today and yesterdays show the date as 05-01-2013 in the top right hand corner of the mail window scroll list, i.e. date in blue. Only when you click on a specific email to show the whole conversation/message does it then show the correct date and time in the top right hand corner of the message window. 
    Any ideas anyone?? So annoying when trying to search for emails!
    Cheers,

  • Upon transferring to the cloud, all my previous mail says the same date, except for today and yesterday.  The rest says it came in on the same date I had to replace the hard drive 3 years ago.  Totally stumped.  It didn't do this on my mac...

    Upon transferring to the cloud, all my previous mail says it entered my box on the same date, except for today and yesterday.  Everything else says it came in on the same date on which I had to replace the hard drive 3 years ago.  Totally stumped.  It didn't do this on my mac...only when I moved.  I have bad feelings about being to fix this...Any suggestions?

    Get the new keyboard at eBay and replace by yourself may be cheaper way, though you're required higher skill and well know about MacBook Air.

  • Process chain not loaded today and yesterday

    Hello all,
    I scheduled PC daily, but today i realized that PC is not loaded today and yesterday.
    how can i analyze further for missing today and yesterday load.
    Regards,

    Check in sm37 if you process chain was triggered or not. If it was triggered, whether it finished successfully or not.
    If everything looks fine here, go to WE02 in your source system to check if any idocs have failed. If the idocs are posted succussfully, check in sm37 here if you job for dataload got completed succesfully or not.

  • Why is firefox only showing today and yesterday's history?

    firefox will only show me today and yesterday's history, how can i see the history before that? i did clear recent history a few days ago but i should have more history then just today's and yesterday's.

  • The history only stores today and yesterday

    I have a problem with history, It only stores today and yesterday in the history.
    In preferences I have "remember history".

    Since you have deleted places.sqlite completely and Firefox is creating a new one, it's hard to imagine repeated database corruption.
    To rule out a potential problem in Firefox's program folders, I suggest the following:
    (1) If needed, download a fresh installer for Firefox 30 from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to a convenient location. (Scroll down to your preferred language.)
    (2) Exit out of Firefox.
    (3) Rename the folder
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    to
    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    (4) Run the installer you downloaded in #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
    The new installation of Firefox should discover your existing profile. Does it read places.sqlite correctly?
    Note: Some plugins may exist only in that OldFirefox folder. If something essential is missing, look in these folders:
    * C:\Program Files\OldFirefox\Plugins
    * C:\Program Files\OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  • How do I increase the length of my browsing history; all I get is today and yesterday and I want to go back 100 days.

    When I go to History: Show all History all I have is today and yesterday, but I want to see the sites that I was on a week or even a month ago (I realize that this may slow things down a bit, but it is a price that I am prepared to pay)

    The setting for a specific number of days to save History was removed from Firefox several versions ago. Why? Too much History was slowing the loading time for Firefox and sometimes making Firefox sluggish.
    Current versions '''''automatically''''' determine how much History to save based on your system's resources (RAM, etc.). It is a complex algorithm, and though I have seen some try to experiment with a few settings, the results were generally not very successful.

    You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
    *disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
    *disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Troubleshooting
    Clear the cache and the cookies from websites that cause problems.

    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Finder does not list partition and very slow

    Running Lion 10.7.2 on a Mac Pro 1,1.
    Today my Finder refuses to list one of the partitions of one of the HDDs I have. All other partitions are listed normally but this one. I did the regular permissions and Repair Disk...
    Problem is: Terminal can see and list files on that partition, and so can Open dialogs (which apparently do not use Finder?).
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.
    I included a video to better portray what I am talking about above.

    Odd.  But you shouldn't have to drag it -- from a Finder Menubar, select Finder > Preferences > Sidebar and check the appropriate Hard disks or External disks box.  It should show up automagically.
    If it's already checked, or has a minus sign in it, uncheck it, then check it again.

  • Scroll through long list (Photo and iPod)

    Hi!
    I'm the new guy here so be gentle...
    Any way to scroll through a long list in iPod or Photo, as you can with Contacts (by dragging up/down on the leters at left)?
    I know you can tap and view a single photo then scroll through at the bottom.
    When viewing all photos, there is a scroll bar on the right but can't drag it.
    Same in iPod.
    Drag and flick work but if there is more than a page or two, it's a pain.

    +I was hoping maybe there's a three finger, double tap, right swipe, followed by a half clockwise circle to get the bottom/top+
    Well, yes there is but then I would have to show you the secret hand shake and swear you to secrecy.
    +It's got the slider on the right side but it's just for looks. You can't grab it and slide it+
    I still haven't figured the point of that, maybe a future enhancement?
    There has been a lot of grumbling about the unfriendly nature of Photos for people with a lot of images. Maybe Apple is listening and will do something about it. I keep hoping one of the iOS upgrades will include folders/albums from within Photos instead of relying on syncing.
    Also note that you can not delete images from Photos that have been added by syncing through iTunes...have to delete them back in iTunes.
    But still, the iPad is a terrific photo display device due to its size.

  • Why can I not find my long list of bookmarks?

    What happened to my long list of book marks that I had, and when I click bookmarks tab it just gives me other exploring things to do and none of them are my fu__ing bookmarks. Please excuse the language. Im very frustrated that when you got something good going and you take it away with no explanation of why you want me to make several clicks when it used to just take one?

    You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
