Desktop "Locate" or "find" problem

I'm using Desktop on a Mac. When I try to use the "Find" icon or the "Locate" function on the top bar to look for a future appointment, it will find past items but nothing in the future? "Find again" just goes further back in the past.  I tried several "test" appointments, one with actual times, without times and with and without alarms to see if anything affects it's ability to find an item.  It doesn't seem to. I found nothing in Preferences that applies and didn't see any help in On Line help nor any similar problems in the Community Forum.  Anyway, I'm stuck.  If you have a suggestion, please let me know.

  • While trying to use airdrop, the files located in finder are not visable. What to do?

    Hi paulo23,
    ''Would it make a difference if I would delete firefox altogether and try fresh?''
    It could not be ruled out it may help.
    A clean reinstall may solve the issue and so could be tried but not as a first step and take care with what you do.
    #First I suggest you '''back up your current profile'''. <br />Do this before trying even a new profile. You want to make sure you do not lose data such as bookmarks passwords or settings, or if you do that you may recover them. Put the backup folders and files somewhere safe outside Firefox profile or program paths. (Your Desktop will do)
    #* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    #Next just try a clean additional '''test profile'''. And when it comes to trying to print again use safe mode, and make sure any and all Firefox Plugins are disabled.
    #* [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles#w_creating-a-profile]]'''_creating-a-profile'''
    #* If you are new to using multiple Firefox profiles then because we do not document this in the Sumo KB (other than for Thunderbird) you may be interested in reading my tips in two adjacent posts [/questions/990973#answer-548376] & [/questions/990973#answer-548377]

    Did you try with a different phone? Have you moved a WiFi hotspot recently? Are all locations wrong, or only one? You may have a hardware problem. Take the phone to an Apple store for evaluation. Make a reservation first: http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/us/en/techsupport/

  • Document to go on Desktop couldn't find IPad!

    I can use the software Document to go to synchronize my document between my desktop and iPad before. But the desktop can not find device yesterday . I follow all instruction from document to go to fix the problem. And reinstalled the software and reset the wi-fi etc. but I didn't solve the problem. The other software Xunlei ( video software) also can't find the device. Therefore I thought the problem should occurred in iPad. Who can give me a hand?

    I wonder if the firewall on your computer/router/network could be blocking it? no sure fire way to tell you how to look into it since every program and person's setup can be different, but that could be one thing preventing syncing over wifi, the communication being blocked by a third party.
    Might be something for you to play with.

  • Finder problem or LaCie HD problem

    How do I tell whether my external HD (LaCie d2 quadra) used for TM failed or if the trouble is with my Mac (Finder)?
    Today I had trouble saving a pages document. The Finder showed the spinning beach ball When I typed the 1st few letter of the destination folder. I checked Activity Monitor & it showed “Finder not responding.” I force quit the finder & discovered I could not restart since no menu bar. I could not access the application folder & I also did not know any keyboard shortcut to bring up terminal so I could not use
    “sudo shutdown -r now” or “sudo shutdown -h now”
    I gave up & Manually shut down with the On/Off button.
    I probably should NOT have force quit Finder! I should have just restarted.
    When I booted up again everything worked OK except the LaCie HD icon was missing from the desktop & the TM would not work (since there was no mounted volume for TM). I repaired permissions, I restarted, I shut off & turned on the LaCie HD --no joy.
    I am not certain but, suspect that the Finder problem CAUSED the LaCie/unable to mount problem. I just don’t check constantly to verify that the LaCie volume remains mounted. It may have preceded the Finder problem but if so, not by more than a few hours.
    The LaCie HD is connected by FW800. I tried to use FW 400 cable & USB cable & same result. The LaCie power light goes on but I don’t hear the HD noises. I don’t know but suspect that the HD must 1st mount before it makes HD noises.
    The LaCie is only 16 months old & under warranty. I hate to send it in especially if it is fine & my Mac is the problem.
    Under Disk Utility the LaCie is not shown. Under System Profiler/Firewire it shows up as “Unknown Device.”
    Is there a way (log?) to find out When the last TM backup completed? Is there a definitive test to tell if It is the Mac software, The Mac Hardware - (doubtful unless FW 800, 400 & USB ports all failed ) , or the LaCie that is the problem?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Thanks for the replies.
    Pullman,
    I looked in Console & did find a backup failed but I had been getting occasional TM backup failed messages for months & usually if I manually backup or just wait , the next one works.
    I think that is a TM problem as I checked the forums When it 1st happened.
    I did not save the Pages document to LaCie. LaCie is used only for automatic TM backups.
    I bought LaCie 11-2007 & used exclusively for TM since. I don’t recall anything about “Mac OS Extended Journaled or GUID partition” but, I followed instructions & it went smoothly & has worked very well so I really doubt I set it up incorrectly.
    Thomas, Can you point me to any documentation or even anecdotes about the failure of an external drive causing Finder problems? How can I take your very good suggestion to repair the external (LaCie) disk when Under Disk Utility the LaCie is not shown. Under System Profiler/Firewire it shows up as “Unknown Device.”
    When you discuss erasing the drive, you are talking about erasing the External drive, right? But if it is not mounting how can I do anything with it? When you say “If the external disk is connected, turned on and not showing up in Disk Utility, then you've got something more serious going on, probably a hardware failure.” You are referring to a failure of the LaCie hardware not the Mac, right?
    Update/ more symptoms:
    Keyboard shortcut to switch Spaces stopped working. So did mouse buttons for Expose & Dashboard.. So did Hot corners. Repaired Permissions, no help. Trashed Finder plist, no help. Tried to restart & could not. Had to open Terminal & use “sudo shutdown -r now” & Then it restarted with everything working fine except still no LaCie External TM HD mounting.
    Something is wrong with my Mac.  Probably the LaCie is just fine.
    I will use disk Utility to Repair disk with Leopard DVD.

  • Since updating the recent OS on my iPad my location services do not work.  Maps "Cannot determine location"  and "Find Me" is running in circles.  How can I delete the update on my iPad???

    Since updating the recent OS on my iPad my location services do not work.  Maps "Cannot determine location"  and "Find Me" is running in circles.  How can I delete the update on my iPad???

    You can't delete the update and your problem probably is not in the Update.
    Check to see if Location Services is turned ON. (Settings > Privacy > Location Services)
    What model iPad Mini do you have? WiFi or WiFi + Cellular
    Have you recently changed WiFi routers?

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

    Anyone?

  • Have made a rebbot from Time Machine, and now I lack a lot of pictures. Can see icons, but not enlarge them. Especially pictures where 2009 is included in the date is missing? When I set up my desktop, I can find some of the pictures. Where do They hide,

    Have made a rebbot from Time Machine, and now I lack a lot of pictures. Can see icons, but not enlarge them. Especially pictures where 2009 is included in the date is missing?
    When I set up my desktop, I can find some of the pictures. Where do They hide, and what shall I do.
    Have made back up, but unfortunately a little too late. What to do?
    MacBook Pro 15 "late 2008, Processor 2.53 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB, Software Mac OS X 10.7.4 Lion (11E53).

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

  • Locating and solving problem due to a high voltage input to DAQ

    Hi! By mistake a high voltage was fed through input channel of my DAQ NI PCI-6052E. After that daq is not functioning(giving -10V measurement always). I use SCB-68 connector block with this DAQ card. I checked the connector with the output board pci6711 and found it was functioning. How can I trace out the location of the problem?

    Greetings,
    My first suggestion would be to run the Online E Series Diagnostic Utility. This should verify whether or not your board is damaged and needs to be sent back to NI for repair. I have included a link to this utility below:

  • Location emoticons Finder

    Hello everyone,
    I'm wondering where the emoticons are located in Finder ?
    Thanks !

    Hello QuickTimeKirk,
    Thanks for your response. However, maybe I haven't been specific enough: I would like to find the files of the emoticons, themselves. Like in the old iChat app, where you could find them under /Applications/iChat/Contents/PlugIns/Standard.smileypack/Contents/Resources/.
    I would like to add an emoticon myself to the system.
    Thanks again.

  • Weird Finder Problem

    G5, 10.4.11
    I was dragging several thousand jpegs off of an SD card to the trash when my finger slipped and I released to the desktop where the finder said "copying 4,123 files to desktop"
    Immediately, I tried to stop it, clicking the X did not work so I tried Opt-Command-Escape to force quit the finder, that did not work.
    My only option I thouhght at the time was to force shutdown by holding the power button down.
    Now, the computer works fine but there are no desktop icons.
    If I go to thew desktop folder directly and try to highlight the Jpeg files and put in the trash, it says "some of the items are in use by another application....are you sure you want to remove these" with stop and continue buttons available.
    "continue" doesnt work, and "stop" just gets me out of the process.
    I have trashed the finder prefs already but that does not have any effect.
    Can anyone shed some light on this?
    Thanks for any and all help

    Let's assume all these image files have the same extension - .jpg or .jpeg. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter or paste the following commands:
    cd /Users/yourusername/Desktop
    sudo rm -rf *.jpg
    You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed. Press RETURN after each command line.
    If the extensions are .jpeg then change this command to "rm -rf *.jpeg".
    This should erase all the image files in the Desktop folder.
