Can I save and replace Spotlight Index?

Spotlight has been playing up recently. Several times a week it won't Find, so I have to use the Software Preferences/Spotlight/Privacy trick to re-index. That involves a half hour or so, plus a restart. (I suspect I need to reinstall my OS)
Now, as most of the files I want to Find have been on my system for years, I thought if I could just save the Spotlight Index on my desktop, then replace the faulty index with the saved version whenever Spotlight plays up, then I have temporarily solved the problem. (I could re-index Spotlight at a convenient time)
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If you're asking if you can archive your text messages, you can email the text of your text conversations by opening the conversation, tapping Edit, tap all the parts you want to email, then tap Forward and enter an email address. If you want to save the entire conversation as it appears on your phone you'll have to either take screenshots and email the photos to your computer or use 3rd party software such as PhoneView (Mac) or Touch Copy (PC or Mac).

Elements 9-cant edit, save and replace original like i used to. Setting issue?

I have had Elements 9 for a few years and ive always been able to edit and save and replace original if I wanted.... now when I save, my organizer shows the same file # twice. (example: DSC325)
but one is the orginal and one is the edited version.
If I delete the orginal picture, it now also deletes my edited version.
The only way to avoid is to "save as" on EVERY picture and then go back and delete the orginal unedited version.
Did I accidentally change a setting????

Yes I have 9.03
I use Fix... Full Photo Edit
I used to be able to hit SAVE... reaplce photo? Yes... and then the orginal was gone and the newly edited picture was now named the original file #. But now when I do that I get two pictures named THE SAME. So I have to do SAVE AS , change file name, and then go and delete the orginal photo.
Here are settings when SAVING.
Here is what DSC_0523 now looks like in organizer: it shows 2 of the edited picutre with the same name... instead of replacing it and showing only ONE file.

Can't save and close

'can't save and close

Newer version don' have that option.
Instead you can make use of "Show my windows and tabs from Last time".
Its like save and exit only.
Goto TOOLS -> OPTIONS -> GENERAL -> STARTUP -> WHEN FIREFOX STARTS -> CHOOSE "Show my windows and tabs from Last time".

Hi:
Unfortunately, video adapters on most notebooks (including yours), cannot be upgraded or replaced unless the entire motherboard is replaced.
That would only be done if there is a motherboard available for your model with better graphics.
Below is the service manual for your notebook. I only see 3 motherboards listed, two of them for the discrete video. One allows for 256 MB of memory and the other, 512MB.
http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01597750/c01597750.pdf
Definitely not worth the cost or hassle for an extra 256 MB of memory.

How can I search and replace fonts?

iOS 7 doesn't support the Adobe workhorse fonts I've most relied on for years, and arbitrarily changes them to iOS built-in fonts when I link my standard documents and templates to the iPhone, via iCloud. There's no apparent logic to how it does this; a Pages document in Minion Pro, a serif font, gets changed to the sans-serif Helvetica. Myriad Pro may come out in Times New Roman. I accept that the iPhone's limited number of fonts makes translation necessary, but does Pages offer a way in which I can search and replace inappropriately substituted fonts for more logical alternatives?

You noticed the first one yourself: the Found item list seems to randomly jump around the document -- I believe you are correct in your observation it may be due to the object construction order. That tells me, by the way, something about your lot numbers that tou didn't mention: your text is not one continuous long threaded story, but it's all or partially in disconnected etxt frames. The Found list does return everything inside a single story in the correct order, but it goes over each separate story in the order they were constructed.
The only solution is to gather all of your lot numbers, *re-sort* them according to the page number they appear on (and some sort of Worst Case Scenario is when you might have more than one lot number frame per page; in that case you also need to sort by textframe, top to bottom -- yet even worse is if you also may have these textframes side by side!).
Only then you have a reliable counting order.
This isn't too bad. We can just extend the method I offered for sorting top-to-bottom/left-to-right in Re: Working around the frame selection order issue in CS 4 and make it also include page numbers:
function byPageYX(a,b) {
    var
        aP = a.parentTextFrames[0].parentPage.index,
        bP = b.parentTextFrames[0].parentPage.index,
        aY = a.baseline[0],
        bY = b.baseline[0],
        aX = a.horizontalOffset[1],
        bX = b.horizontalOffset[1],
        dP = aP-bP,
        dy = aY-bY,
        dx = aX-bX;
    return dP?dP:(dy?dy:dx);
myResults.sort(byPageYX);
Or something like that.
As for actually implementing the above I cannot be of any help with Applescript.
Once we're dealing with sorting I think you're much better off in Javascript anyhow.

Can I Save and Saveas an excel running into a webbrowser (C#)? Permissions problems?

Hi,
When we open an excel via the Open method we can configure the parameters 'readonly = false' and 'editable = true' to allow saving with Save and Saveas methods avoiding the messages "A file named 'test.xls' already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it?"
The problem is that I don't open the Excel file as above . My application (C#) charges the excel in a webbrowser inside a windows form so I prepere a workbook, I open it in the WebBrowser ( with Navigate method, not Open method) and then I assign the WebBrowser document to the application so I could continue to control it
The question is: Is there any way to open this Excel file in a webbrowser with permissions similar to 'readonly = false' and 'editable = true' of the Open method???
- If not, the Save function doesn't work and the saving only occurs when I change the content of the webbrowser ( for instance when I it's executed the line mywebBrowser.Navigate("about:blank", false); ). Moreover It appears the messege "A file named 'test.xls' already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it?"
- On the other way, if it can't be done, It`ll never works the Saveas function...
I'd appreciate any suggest!

This question won't get much action in the C# group...try posting it in the Discussions in Office Development or Discussions in Automation forum for interop questions.

Update and replace a index via script

Hi everybody,
I created a book with 30 chapters, each of them having a local (or chapter) index at the last pages.
I would like to update these indexes and replace them with the new, updated ones (just as the command "Generate Index..."
do with the option "Replace the Existing Index" on).
I'm able to generate the index via script, but I don't know how to make it replace the existing one.
I dont want the Place the Index, as its precise location is variable and it can run for more than one page and frame.
So even I could get the coordinates of an existing index to place the new one,
I would have the re-layout them, what would defeat my automation goal altogether.
I just want to replace the existing indexes via script, as I can do using the interface.
Is it possible?
Thank you all in advance.

I'd like to re-ask the same question. I am able to generate an index for the first time, but am at a loss how to do the scripting equivalent of pressing the "OK" button in the following dialog:
I'm guessing I should proceed something like this:
myDocument.indexGenerationOptions.replaceExistingIndex = true;
myIndex = myDocument.indexes[0].update();
myIndex.generate( ? DO I REALLY HAVE TO SPECIFY A PAGE ETC. HERE ? );

HELP! How come I can't 'save and quit' any longer with this new ver of Firefox? Does anyone know how to fix this?

When I updated Firefox I have now discovered I can no longer action the 'save and quit' function when closing down Firefox! Is this a common problem and more to the point is there a solution to this?? ie, change settings or some form of patch??
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this function WAS awesome when needing certain tabs kept open.

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

How can i find and replace xml tags?

Hi, i am using xml in my workflow and want to be able to remove certain tags if they contain particular text.
here is an example of my xml structure…
<entry>
    <name>DEFAULT</name>
    <tel>DEFAULT</tel>
    <address>DEFAULT</address>
</entry>
I am using this initial structure to set the paragraph styles to be followed when the xml data is imported.
This leaves DEFAULT in place wherever an entry doesn't have any content for that field.
I want to be able to import my XML then run a script that removes any tags that include DEFAULT, - I need the entire xml tag to be removed not just the text, if i do a normal find and replace it will only remove the text not the tags which is causing problems with styling. I also want to remove the end of para/return (^p) that i've placed at the end of the line. So it would be the same as opening up story editor and removing the content + tags + hard return in there, but i want to automate the process…
So i think this is what i need to search for in each case
"<name>DEFAULT</name>^p"
and i want to replace it with nothing ""
Can this be done through scripting (ideally javascript)?
I have a little knowledge of javascript but am not sure how to search and target that kind of string in indesign...
using indesign cs5
many thanks

Hi,
Script should do it in two steps:
1. find all occurences of i.e. ">DEFAULT<"
2. remove whole paragraph which is a found_text's container.
For example this way -JS - (a textFrame filled with your text should be selected) :
var mStory = app.selection[0].parentStory;
app.findTextPreferences = null;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = ">DEFAULT<";
var myF = mStory.findText();
var count = myF.length;
while (count--)
     myF[count].paragraphs[0].remove();
