Can't limit "Find" command to just one folder.  Why?

I'm trying to find some .jpg files within a certain folder where there are thousands of files. So I open that folder, and enter ".jpg" in the search box. But then the name at the top of the window changes from the folder I just opened, to "Searching Mackintosh HD", in other words, it searches the entire computer.
How can I limit the search to just that one folder?

I just figured this out: When I enter the search term, it does default to "Searching Macintosh HD", but on the left side of the search window there is a little button with the name of the folder I had originally opened.
By clicking on that button, it narrows the search to just that folder.

All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

    Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
    Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
    Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

  • Icloud lists 2 email addresses. How can I change it to use just one.

    icloud lists 2 email addresses.  How can I change it to use just one?

    Sign out of iCloud on the iCloud system prefs. Then, sign in with your new.
    However, purchases from iTunes and the Mac App store are forever tied to the old AppleID. There is no way to change that short of deleting the old purchases and purchasing new under the new AppleID.
    Based on everything that has happened lately with people using social engineering to gain access to other people’s AppleID’s, you need to speak to someone at Apple regarding your account. If you think you knew the answers to your questions and you are not getting emails anymore, someone may have gained access to your old account and has changed all of that info.

  • I can only install the CC to just one of my computers under my ID. Why?

    Hi
    I can only install CC applications to just one of my computers under my Adobe ID.
    To the next computer under my Adobe ID, I've tried many times and many ways to install CC, the Donwload Centre only allows me to install trial versions of CC applications. However, my trial account has already expired. So Adobe.com keeps asking for extra money or product serial number that I don't have for CC.
    I did receive a verification email from Adobe verifying my Creative Cloud for Teams account. Following the proper procedure, I accepted invitation from an Admin of the Team. But it seems that the Download Centre doesn't recognise my Adobe ID in my next machine.
    Is there anyone able to give me solution?
    The 2 computers under my Adobe ID are both MacBook Pros (but in different ages). Is that a problem?

  • I can send, but I can't receive texts messages from just one person

    I can send,  but I can't receive texts messages from just one person.....thanks

        Hello railenemarie16, let's solve this mystery together! Have you tried deleting your contact from her device and then re-adding? Also, have her send you a message manually instead of from the saved contact. Did you have an iPhone previously before the Note 3 and used iMessage? Keep us posted!

    You need to delete here conversation and start another one using her phone number and not her Apple ID. You cannot delete iMessage, you can disable it. If the Apple server still sees her iPod with iMessage on and using her Apple ID, then it will continue to appear to your phone that she has iMessage. She needs to take a look at this support document about permanently disabling iMessage for her account. Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone

    Without proper system information and other details nobody can tell you anything. If the program shuts down after a while then presumably it fails to verify your activation, so refer to this:

  • How can I limit Bridge searches to just image names?

    I'm new to CS5 and use Bridge a lot.
    The problem I'm having is that it seems very difficult to limit the images to just the artwork I'm looking for.
    When I type in almost any name, the Mac OS will bring up dozens of related files for every sort of OSX segment file.
    I only want Bridge to show images.
    It seems that in trying to narrow down the choices, the settings are a bit arcane.
    When I create a search for document type, there are about 200 arcane sorts to weed out... with photoshop appearing about three screens down the list.
    Is there any way to limit the searches to just photoshop .psd and .jpeg files?
    Thanks!

    Thanks!
    I wonder if there is any way to save these basic search parameters, so one doesn't have to go through all that trouble for every search?
    If not, I'd say Adobe really dropped the ball on this one, effectively undoing the simplicity in favor of too many bells & whistles... imho.
    I find myself just going to the Mac OS finder to search file names, since the Bridge search is so arcane.
    IF there was a way to save the basic search for images (as opposed to coming up with every single related name on the entire computer), that'd sure make things quicker.

  • Can I start private browsing in just one tab?

    Is there a way (plugin or other) to have just one tab started in private mode instead of the whole browser?

    The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59736/ Private Browsing Window] add-on does almost exactly what you want. I would use that.
    However, it only opens a new window that is in Private Browsing mode. You can't just open a Private Browsing tab in the same window as regular tabs.

  • How can I sync just one folder of photos

    I have created a photo folder which I want to use to sync photos with.  I set up iTunes to sync just that folder.  I added 4 new photos to the folder on my iMac, then tried to sync, butt he photos were not sent to my iPhone.  Why not?

    Hi, cpwdakota.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Make sure the photos in the album are still viewable in iPhoto, delete the iPod photo cache and resync the photos.  If the issue persists, see the second article below.

  • Filevault: Possible to checkout just one folder?

    Is it possible to just checkout one folder, e.g. the /etc folder without checking out the whole repository first?
    I don't want to checkout the whole repository, especially not the dam.
    Please move the question to Adobe CQ5 Community (I do find only a read only CQ 5 community...)

    Hey eggcream,
    The contact list "My Contacts" is the list that synchronizes.
    You can remove this label in your Gmail contacts from those of whom you do not wish to have synchronized over.

  • Adding Metadata to folders/ Searching Drive for Keywords not just one folder -  Bridge CC 2014

    Hello Adobe world,
    I'm trying to add Metadata to folders not the files. The files in the folders already have metadata and in one folder we have 360 images of the same thing. When I do a keyword search I don't want to go though 20+ sets of 360 duplicate files. I need to do keyword searching for folders. When I have tried adding keywords to the folders I get "the file cannot store xmp metadata" warning. I tried clearing the cache on the file because it said that would help in another forum but it did not help. Does any one know how to fix this? I don't know why we could not assign descriptions or keywords to folders. It would be very useful!!  Some one please help!
    as of 2/24/2015 -  This is still unanswered. I want to be able to find files throughout my whole drive based on the metadata tags I put on all my 100,000+ images. These 100,000+ images are dispersed thought out multiple folders. I need to be able to find all the files with specific Metadata tags in common but bridge will not let me search outside of one defined folder? HELP!
