Find/Search app with hierarchical results?

Anyone know of a search application that gives results in an hierarchical order?
I know the most recent version of Find-Any-File does this, but unfortunately it is far too slow when thousands of files are involved.
An excellent old app that I used many years ago with OS Classic was UltraFind... but unfortunately I have not seen anything comparable since.
It would probably have to work with Spotlight in order to be quick.
Does anyone know of such an application?
TIA

Hi,
You are trying to implement auto complete for a text input element. This can achieved best with the use of the JQueryUI autocomplete. Here's a complete tutorial to implement this JQuery function -    JQueryUI autocomplete full tutorial and demo
This function can create suggestions based on the user's input. These suggestions can be a list of words you create or can be fetched from a database. You'll find source codes and demo also for all of this on the above link.
Also, if you want a Facebook style suggestion drop down, try this - Search prediction based on user input
But this does not allow keyboard navigation in the drop down. you would have to select using a mouse pointer

  • Finder search bug? No results if 'Search' field is blank.

    I can't determine if this is a bug or is simply a change in Finder search behavior (for the worse, IMO) in 10.8.
    In the Finder, when I select 'File>>Find' (or hit ⌘-F) and then select the current folder from the top of the search parameters, no files appear in the search results if the 'Search' (for filename) field at the top of the window is blank even though the only other search parameter is 'Kind is Any'.
    If I enter text in the 'Search' field, matching results start to appear.
    In 10.7, I saw different behavior. In the absence of text in the Search field, the Finder would simply return results matching the other parameters and ignore the Search field.
    With the new behavior, there doesn't seem to be any way to construct a saved search based solely on other parameters (kind, date, file label, etc) without specifying some filename parameter as well. Of course, I can work around the problem by using something like 'NOT xxx!@#$%' in the Search field, but this approach is klugy at best.
    Anyone else see this? Bug? Deliberate change in Finder behavior?

    Yes the report ESH_TEST_SEARCH returns no material.
    So should I suspend the indexing and reschedule with with real time indexing ? I am not sure whether we choose real time indexing in the first time.
    What about the authorizations, I see USER_AUTHORITY object is activealready.
    Thanks

  • Finder Search problems with contractions

    The finder search seems to have issues with contractions.
    If I search for the song title "I Don't Want To Lose You", I get nothing. If I search for "want to lose you" then it works.  VERY frustrating to have to alter search especially when I have thousands of songs to search through.
    Anyone else?

    Hi Jai,
    thanks for your tip.
    Actually this thread is not about to find workarounds. At the end I found the blogs. This thread is about to optimize the SDN search engine and find problems with it.
    Anyway, thanks again.
    Best regards

  • UIX - Showing search page with no results as default

    I modified the uix page to create a search page for a simple uix page according to the code give in the forum.
    But this shows initially with results.
    I want the results to be shown only when a search condition is given.

    What u have said was exactly mentioned as a solution when I had searched the Forum.
    Ok these were the steps I followed:-
    1. A uix data page created (datapage1.uix) in Struts pagelayout.
    2. Drag and Drop EmployeesView1 from datacontrol pallete.
    3. Added the rendered property for the table in the source code.
    <table rendered="${requestScope.showResults?true:false}" model="${bindings.EmployeesView1}" id="EmployeesView10" partialRenderMode="multiple" partialTargets="_uixState">
    4. Then drag and drop textinput from component pallete for the search value and named it value
    5. Drag and drop a submit button from componet pallete and named it Query also named an event query.
    6. In the handeler for this event i added a go
    7. also added a set in the source code for the handeler
    <event name="query">
    <compound>
    <set target="requestScope" property="showResults" value="${true}"/>
    <go name="query"/>
    </compound>
    </event>
    8. Added a DataAction to which i added my method that was exposed to the client. The code for the method is :
    public final void setCondition(String p_cond)
    ViewObject empvo = findViewObject("EmployeesView1");
         //Creating a Where clause for the query
    String whereclause = "LAST_NAME like '%"+ p_cond +"%'";
    empvo.setWhereClause(whereclause);
    empvo.executeQuery();
    9. then I set the parameter value property in the stuts structure panel for the action top ${param.value}
    10. When I run this page from struts pagelayout The initial display is only the testinput field and the button. After I feed the value and hit the button. The screen just blinks thats it. but no results shown.
    Could some one tell me where have I gone wrong?
    Need help! Urgent

    Yes.
    Simply load the app onto her iPhone.
    Note that the app allow you to find a different iPhone. You can use it to locate your own iPhone but if your own iPhone is in your hands and you are using the app...
    Anyone can us the app to log into their own iCloud account and find their own iPhone (ie.You use her iPhone to locate your iPhone and vice-versa).

  • Tag Cloud to show search terms with zero results

    I have been following the blue print document that we have regarding our OEID system which is under development at present.
    We have a field called Search Terms which contains the text the user or the navigation has searched for. At present we have a tag cloud that shows the most popular. We also need to show the ones which are at the top of the "yeild zero results" list.
    Looking at the Tag Cloud component and after reading the documentation on the tag cloud, it would not seem possible to create an EQL query to do this. Therefore would I have to create a custom attribute when I'm parsing our raw data to do this, then be able to display the 30 or so most popular search terms that yeild zero results, or is there a better way of doing this?

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • App with hierarchal folders and subfolder

    My Palm finally has died and I'm moving to an iPod Touch for maintaining a veterinary database at the tip of my fingers.
    I am looking for an application that organizes folders and subfolders in a hierarchal format.  HiNote did the job on my now dead and extremely well used Palm.
    I prefer a non-free application.  I saw the one by SOHO but it has too many bells and whitles for my purposes.

    Is there a way to get a search protocol of the "Find my iPhone" search app and icloud ? And where can i find a protocol of the chat with a apple support worker

    Thanks for the reply however this does not help.  When I check the cloud it shows that I have only 20 photos.  In reality I had a lot more than that.  All the photos on the cloud are those that I have taken since I was at the Apple store.  When I check cloud storage usage on my phone it says that I have 5.1 GB of photos.  This is a lot more than the 20 that I can see.  I am not sure what the Apple employee did to my phone.
    Still looking for answers.  It is really too bad that I can not talk to an Apple person to get help since they messed up my phone.

  • Finder search results show MP3s with incomplete or changed filenames in Yosemite

    Under Yosemite, when performing a search for "mp3" in Finder, certain search results will not display their true filename under the "Name" column:
    For example, the "Name" column above should display the entire filename (as shown in the Status Bar), not just what I can only assume is the track title.
    This does not apply to all mp3s, only to some. Probably something to do with ID3 tags, or perhaps with certain hyphen usage in the filename.
    Anyway, I'd just like the "Name" column to show me the filename as it should, and not metadata. I can't find how to change the results to display the correct filenames.
    This causes several problems. First it makes sorting by an album's track number, which is frequently included in the actual filename, in the search results impossible, as now the numbers are not part of the list. Therefore if I want to drag an album into an iTunes Playlist in the correct album order I have to go to the source folder and can't do it straight from the search window. Also I can't see separate versions of the same song, which may have the same track title but different filenames. Also I can't see the filename at a glance, which may include other important information other than the track title. And so on.
    I can't find anyone else who has this problem on Yosemite. Mavericks yes... and sadly no help. Hoping it's fixable.

    I have the same problem with AIFF's too...
    It's a big problem for me as I'm currently doing some sound design.
    I need to see the file name in the finder, not the title/track name.

  • HT204266 There are some apps that I have on my Ipod that I would like to put onto my Ipad2. I searched the app store for them but the search came back with no results. Why???

    If an app is available for an Ipod touch shouldn't it be available for an Ipad2?

    There are some apps that are device specific....ipad only, iPhone only, etc
    Go to your purchased tab in iTunes, and then look at the top and you should see 'iPad apps' 'iPod apps' etc. Look around in there and see if you can find your apps to download onto your iPad.

  • Searching Web Apps with Data Source fields containing multiple values

    I have a Web App with a field allowing multiple values to be entered similar to the checkbox list. I need to restrict allowed values to a large, finite list of values currently stored in another Web App as the data source. I can't apply the Data Source field type as that only allows single value selection. I also need to be able to use the Web App Search form to search for items containing 1 OR more values in this field (the search functionality of a checklist field type). Here's what I've tried for field types:
    Text (string) or Text (multiline) field type - By saving a list of comma separated values (the same way that checkbox list outputs) to a text input or textarea, the search logic only searches for exact string (including commas) and doesn't parse the individual values.
    List (checkbox list) field type - This allows me to search multiple values using OR logic, but the web app will only store values that have been entered as options in the actual web app field setup. I tried using a checkbox list with minimal or empty options hoping that whatever values I sent over in a comma separated string value would still get stored, but because the values came from my Web App data source and not the list of options stored with the field, they were not saved.
    Has anyone found a way to do this?
    My other question is about how I might use a similar multi-value field as described above but return search results containing items with ALL selected values for that field (AND logic).
    Can anyone enlighten me to the inner workings of BC web app search logic?

    Thanks Robert.
    You'll need to create your own interface to the webapp database for those kind of data operations
    by this, are you speaking of the internal BC database which stores web app schema data? That would be great if it were possible to update that programmatically because I need to use the List (Checkbox List) field type (for the search functionality), but I need to supply the checkbox options from a web app rather than by manually updating the list entered in the Fields view of the web app settings (shown below).
    I'm curious if anyone else has tried this?
    Again, my reason for needing to use the List (Checkbox List) field type is that the page which processes searches knows to expect a comma separated list for this field type and then appears to be parsing out the individual values for searching out web app items with 1 or more matching values. You're right that text fields (string and multiline) just check for 'string contains' matches, and this would be ok if I was only ever needing to search just one value at a time. Here's an example of what I might do:
    Web App item field value (as recorded against the List (Checkbox List) field type:
    8294877,8294878
    Web App Search value (for this same field):
    8294879,8294877,8294885
    The search would return this web app item because the field contains 2 (1 or more) individual values even though they were entered into the search field in a different order. If this web app item were just a Text (string or multiline) field, the searched value is not a substring of the web app item's stored value, so it would not find a match. Hence the need to use Checkbox List field type.
    The web app will have thousands if not 10s of thousands of records, so dumping them all into one big array or object and searching on the front-end won't be practical (though it works great on smaller datasets).

    I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie 11 slideshow to a dvd.  I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks.  There are a lot of DVD Creator apps at the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips. Thank you.

    I've been using "Burn" for years and it has been the only DVD burning software I have ever used for the mac. I have never needed to look at other apps. Unless you want something that has more bells and whistles such as Roxio's "Toast" : http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
    There are thousands of quality free apps out there for the mac that are not part of the App Store. All you have to do is read reviews online, do a little search, the Apple forums are full of recommendations from experienced users that have been here for years...

  • T/X model SORTing Find/Search results from Most Current Entry

    Have the Palm T/X model, and use the FIND/search function constantly.
    The results always come up from the earliest (oldest) entry to the most current.
    This is a major league pain-in-the-butt especially when there are tons of entries to go thru to get to the most current date.
    Is there any way to sort the FIND results so that they show from most Recent entry to the oldest.
    This would be a HUGE Help.
    Thx!

    There is a pulsing, reddish dot in the middle of the
    blue light but on the hard drive itself, I don't see
    any "lights" in any "menu bar".
    It's at blue circle with a white Q-shaped symbol at the right end of your menu bar.
    If you dare to use the terminal application (can be found in the utilities folder) you can use the following command to re-index that drive. Start Terminal and type (or paste) the following line and hit enter:
    sudo mdutil -E "/Volumes/xxx/"
    Replace "xxx" with the name of Your drive! If there is a space in that name type it like "/Volumes/My\ Drive/"! You will be prompted for Your admin password to proceed.
