Canned searches in finder.app package, but not in sidebar or preferences

Hello,
I would like to add the canned searches from the Finder App package to te sidebar, but they do not appear in the preferences.
I found no ducumentation on this.
Would you please help me?
Wilfried

There is an alternate way to get basically the same searches into the proper place in the Finder sidebar. The "canned searches" in Finder.app are very similar to "smart folders" that you can create yourself, setting them up to search "This Mac" and using a single "Kind is ...." search criterion. If you save such a "smart folder" it becomes a "saved search", and there is a checkbox for adding its icon to the sidebar. That sidebar icon will appear under "Search For", not under "Places.' Name the search appropriately and save it to the default Saved Searches folder.
For further details see
*Mac OS X 10.6 Help - Creating a Smart Folder*

  • Can You Browse the "App Store" but not be an iPhone Owner?

    Not an iPhone user, but could be.
    Could be if I saw the quality, selection, level of apps that start to get created for the iPhone. Maybe some will fill needs for me that are keeping me from using the iPhone. For example, maybe someone will make Treo similar apps (todos, memos, Treo similar calendar + notes within calendar, etc) - NOT web apps - and I can stop using my Treo and jump to an iPhone.
    BUT, how can I browse the "App Store" as a non iPhone owner and see what they have to offer? Will it not be something seen only in iTunes by iPhone users? or will non iPhone users also see a new "App Store" option in iTunes one day? Or, will there be a dedicated website you can go to besides seeing them via iTunes?

    IF it is going to be viewable by anyone with iTunes, iPhone user or not...
    would you be able to see it from my current 'stable' version of iTunes - in my case 7.1.1
    or would you have to upgrade to iTunes 7.6?

    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPad and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.

    Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.

    Just to be clear. You have downloaded the Yosemite installer. However you say while it's updating you get the error you are not online. This is confusing since you shouldn't be able to use your computer in the process of updating.
    Exactly where do you see you need to 10.9 to get on Safari?

    I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
    If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
    If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

  • Clients getting Applications and Packages, but NOT Software Updates

    I am trying to set up a new SCCM2012 installation and have come across a strange problem that I need help on.
    We have a single primary site at one location with distribution points at several other locations. Clients at some of the locations (but not all) are able to get deployed applications and packages from their DP, but for some reason are not able to get Software
    Updates from the same DP.
    When I look in the LocationServices log, I can see it contact the DP when an application is available. The following appear in the log:
    Current AD site of machine is XYZ
    Calling back with the following distribution points
    Distribution Point='https://<My DP>...,Locality='LOCAL',DPType='Server',Version='7958', etc.
    Calling back with locations for location request {<CID>}
    But otherwise, the LocationServices log is filled with:
    Current AD site of machine is XYZ
    Calling back with empty distribution points list
    Current AD site of machine is XYZ
    I don't understand how the machine is able to locate and work with the DP for Applications/Packages, but not for Software Updates. I'm thinking it must be something with the boundaries/boundary groups, but I have checked and everything seems to be fine,
    and they are working for Apps/Packs. 

    The WindowsUpdate.log seems to indicate that it is talking with the MP:
    **START** Agent: Finding updates [CallerId=CcmExec]
    *Include potentialy superseded updates
    *online=Yes;Ignor download priority=Yes
    *Criteria="(DeploymentAction=* AND Type='Software') OR (DeploymentAction=* AND Type='Driver')"
    *Search Scope={Machine}
    +++++ PT: Synchronizing server updates +++++
    + ServiceId= {<CID>}, Server URL = <My MP with appropriate port>
    Agent * Added update {<CID>}.202 to search result
    * Found 289 updates and 77 categories in search; evaluated appl. rules of 2711 out of 4339 deployed entities
    ** END ** Agent:Finding updates [CallerID=CcmExec]
    But there is no mention of my DP.

  • How do I download an app from the Mac App Store but not install it yet?

    How do I download an app from the Mac App Store but not install it yet?
    Can I simply download it and not install?
    What if the App gets updated before I download it?
    Why? Well, I am very busy and wish to install at my leisure even though I have purchased the App (required at a specific day in the month in order to appear on my business accounts).
    Thanks.

    There is a difference in what Kappy stated and what you stated. A major paid upgrade (v2.x to v3.0), yes, costs money, as it would in any other delivery stream. Updates (v3.0 to v3.1) to a a major version are free.
    Most apps sold through the Mac App Store (MAS) are the type that use the simple drag & drop installation. Those are downloaded directly to the designated apps folder and installation is done. Large pro-type apps download an installer to your Apps folder. Those you can install at your leisure. The MAS does not have a lot of apps using this type of installation.
    Be sure to always backup your MAS purchases, because there is no guarantee that the app will always be available for download in the future and it is your responsibility to archive copies.

    My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

    The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud.  With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated.  There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

  • How can I demonstrate my App to someone not at my location?

    How can I demonstrate my App to someone not at my location?  I'm trying to show how an App works to an audience that is in a different city.  I have an iPad 3.  At work, we use Live Meeting for shareing content, but I don't know how to show an App.  Is it even possible?  Thanks.

    It would only be possible by pointing a camera at the iPad screen whilst you use it, and sending that video over the net somehow (Skype etc.) from another device.
    There is no functionality to stream the iPad screen over the Internet built in to iOS, only the iPad camera input over FaceTime.

    Hey there arunvdi,
    It sounds like you are unable to connect to the Wi-Fi created by your Personal Hotspot. I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2756
    Try disabling and reenabling Personal Hotspot from Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Wi-Fi troubleshooting
    If you encounter an issue using Personal Hotspot with other Wi-Fi devices, try the following:
    Turn Personal Hotspot off.
    Verify Wi-Fi is on in Settings > Wi-Fi.
    Turn Personal Hotspot back on.
    If another device is unable to join your Wi-Fi network, ensure that the user enters the Wi-Fi password correctly. If the device cannot see your Wi-Fi network, verify your device name.
    Note: Windows may not properly display a device name that uses non-ASCII characters.
    Verify how many devices are currently using your Personal Hotspot. Depending on your wireless carrier and, the maximum number of Wi-Fi connections may be limited to three at one time.
    If the other device still cannot connect, try turning Wi-Fi off and on again on the device. Verify that your device can see other Wi-Fi networks.
    Note: If you see an "Unable to Join" or timeout error when trying to connect a device using Wi-Fi, ensure that you remain on the Personal Hotspot screen until the first device connects. After a device has connected, you can leave the Personal Hotspot screen and use your phone normally. Your device will automatically stop broadcasting using Wi-Fi if you put your device to sleep or after 90 seconds elapse with no devices connected using Wi-Fi. You can start broadcasting your Wi-Fi network again by tapping Settings > Personal Hotspot.
    If none of the previous steps resolves your issue, restore the iPhone.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling
