Finder search tool not working properly?

I'm having truble with the search tool on the Mac. I open a new finder window and hit search for a file and it only turns up SOME of the files, not all of them. In the screenshot here: http://twitpic.com/4wrbsi
you can see that i typed screen shot into the search tool and it only turned up 2 of the items in my desktop titled screen shot. The third one is highlighted in red. What should I do from here? Reindex finder or something? Thank you

Have you found a solution? I have just tried to search for a file by name, only to come up with no results and lo and behodl it is sitting in a folder. Is it possible that I may have set prerences to not search? I use search a lot, so desperate for this to be fixed.

Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X Pro (Editable PDF Combobox Search is not working properly.)

I have created Editable PDF using itext(5.3.0) in java. I have used Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X Pro. But in editable PDF combobox search is not working properly.
It's only search first character.

My (admittedly old and slow) system did this too the first time I opened Reader 11, but it "unfroze" after about fifteen seconds, (an eternity in computing time, I know, but it did eventually open all the way) What you're seeing on the right is the "Tools" panel initializing. That's exactly where mine would freeze up on starting. Once it did finally open fully, I clicked the "Tools" link at the top to close the panel, and I opened and viewed a document that way, then closed reader. Now when I open Reader, the Tools panel doesn't initialize and it opens immediately.
Reboot and before you open anything else, open Reader. When you open it, DO NOT try to do anything with it until it fully opens, don't click anything, don't try to switch to another app. Give it time to open fully, and then click the Tools link to close it. Then, open and view a document, and close it. Close Reader and reopen it. the Tools panel should remain closed and Reader should open fully immediately.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 12: dropdown boxes for tools not working properly in Win 8.1

Elements 12 system requirements are indicated up to Windows 8. Does that mean it should also work on any Windows 8 upgrades, more specifically 8.1? The drop-down boxes for the tools are not working properly in the program. I've installed it, uninstalled it, and installed it again with the same results. It worked fine on my old computer with Vista.

Yes PSE12 will work on 8.1
If problems persist try re-setting the prefs.
Go to: Edit >> Preferences >> General (Photoshop Elements menu on Mac)
Click the button Reset Preferences on next Launch

Selection tools not working properly -- Illustrator CS6

The two selection tools in CS6 Illustrotor not working properly. They don't select the object when I click and drag a box around them and the handles on drawing path won't stay highlighted when I use the direct selection tool so I can adjust them -- Worked in Illustrator for about 12 years and never had this problem.

Have you tried:
View > Show edges

Can no longer access iPhoto from the iMovie camera browser..not working. Also the Inspector tool not working properly. Cannot change clip duration.

How can I fix the INSPECTOR Tool? Clip duration is not working properly, it is very erratic. You type a number and a different one comes up on the clip.
Suddenly the iPhoto Camera browser in iMovie is not working properly either. Can not access my iPhotos to include them in iMovie project.

Have you tried this?
From the "HOME" screen, go to "SETTINGS > PRIVACY > PHOTOS" and see if iMovie is listed in the "PHOTOS" page. If it is, then tap the iMovie switch to "ON"
Now your Videos & Photos should be accessible in the iMovie App.

Search panel not working properly for mysql

JDev 11.1.1.3, MySql 5.1, Windows 7 x64
When you place a search panel with a table using view criteria on a page the search does not function properly.
The search criteria is developed as shown in the VO:
( (UPPER(Patients.card_number) LIKE UPPER( :pCard || '%') ) OR (UPPER(Patients.full_name) LIKE UPPER( :pName || '%') ) )
When you press the search button with a blank form - all records are returned correctly
if you put any data in the search form - it only returns the first record in the table (not related to the criteria).
if you enter a letter in the name field - it returns no records found.
Is there a workaround for this? or has someone patched this already?
Is there a place that you can configure the way the query is built based on the database type?
also if you use the history columns - you get errors saying sysdate is not valid in the query.
I noticed the same issue that has already been raised by others (the search criteria does not show in the panel) but this is merely an inconvenience as it shows when it is run).

Suganth - Umm... there are reasons why this value isn't editable in the design time once you have set it. Ever think about why JDeveloper makes the value read-only? There's also a type map that is non-changeable in the UI; can we hack that too? Unless you know the consequences of changing this (and explain them in your "solution"), you are being irresponsible in posting such a suggestion. If there are no consequences, explain that too, and tell us why the UI prevents you from making this change.
rogerappl - Hack the jpx file at your own risk. There's a very old [url http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/MySql/MySQL_and_BC_HowTo.html]article on using ADF Business Components with MySQL that talks about the correct settings for these.
John
Edit.. Roger I see that you've updated the thread - when you created your business components, did you specify SQL92 flavor originally? What type map did you use?

Selections tools not working properly in Photoshop CC 2014

Just installed Photoshop CC 2014. For some reason I cannot get my quick selection tool and quick mask to work properly. I can make a selection but when I try to make a mask I get all kinds of artifacting going on. I try to use quick select to clean up the artifacting to no avail, in fact I start to get different artifacting in the selection that cannot be removed by the brush tool. HELP. To bad I uninstalled Photoshop CC. Can I reinstall Photoshop CC somehow? Anybody out there with the same problems? The focus area will not work also?

At this moment, I have tried : Reset the "Adobe Photoshop Settings File" (When you open Photoshop, push "option + command + shift" for Apple).
Not ok.

Find My Friends Not Working Properly after iOS 7 Update

Following update to iOS7, the Find My Friends app doesn't seem to work properly anymore. In particular, when the app is on, or running in the background (i.e. you can see it when you double tap the home button) everything is fine and my friends can see my location. When the app is killed, i.e. off or not running in the background, then my friends cannot see where I am.
That was not the case with the old iOS where regardless of the app running in background or not, my friends could still see my location. Has this happened to anyone? Does anyone have a solution?
Thank you!

Appreciate that, but it's not as useful now. Many users have the same issue, also see

Find my iphone not working properly

Does anyone know if the Find My Iphone service is currently not working? I have it installed on my ipod at a home location and my daughter has taken a spring break trip and I am using it as a safety backup well, just in case (it is spring break after all, and shes 20 hours from home). Around 3 hours after starting her trip it stopped tracking, and hasn't picked up a signal yet (It's been 14 hours) What's strange is it's also having trouble locating my other devices that are sitting right next to me (locations are 30 minutes to an hour old). She has location services on (when she tweets it has a location) but find my iphone cannot track. This is really worrisome because lets face it what's the point of having a feature if it doesn't work properly.

Find My iPhone with an iPod Touch requires the iPod being connected to an available wi-fi network.
I just tried the Find My iPhone app on my personal iPhone 5S and it successfully located my MacBook Pro and iPad 2 connected to my wi-fi network at home and my business iPhone 5 connected to T-Mobile's cellular network.

CS5.1 scaling tool not working properly

The scaling tool is working oddly. If I scale it something down (like a logo) - even with the shift held down and scale it back up - it is all distorted. Is there something that I need to turn off or on? Because the scale tool isn't working properly it is destroying logos. I'm not new to illustrator so unless something in the program has changed I'm not doing anything I haven't always done - without the bad effects.
thanks

THANK YOU!
And it was the "Free Transform" tool I was talking about. Your tip has fixed the problem.

IProcurement - new VO for search results not working properly?

Greetings
There is a requirement for the project I´m working, where the search results on iProcurement must be filtered depending on some profiles setted for the user.
So, basically the search shouldn´t look into ICX_CAT_ITEM_PRICES, but on a custom view that works on that table, but filtering results.
Unfortunately, that´s not working. I extended the VO (which seems to be SearchResultsVO and ItemDetailParametersVO), so the queries are now pointing to the view. But once the search is performed, the results are not filtered. It´s the very same results as before.
Am I doing something wrong? There is some cache that works even after the Apache server is restarted? Please I could really use some help on the subject! Thanks!
Best Regards,
Thiago

Thiago,
Why don't you use a local Jdev setup for substitution process so that testing and debugging is easier.
Follow these steps for testing locally:
1. Add your VO to AM.
2. After extending VO, do the following,
Right-click on your project in the Navigator pane, and select Edit Business Components Project (or right-click on the project's .jpx and select Edit <project>).
a. Select the Substitutions section.
b. From the Available list, select the base object that you want to replace and press ok.
3. Normally, the BC4J runtime does not read a project's .jpx file. To override this default behavior in JDeveloper so you substitutions can be used, you must do the following to ensure that the classpath contains the .jpx file.
a. Right-click on your project and select Project Settings.
b. Then in Configurations | Development | Runner, add -Djbo.project=Name to the Java Options. Note that the Name value is the .jpx file name without the .jpx extension (for example, ExtendLabSolutions). Be sure to include a space between any existing options and the new option.

Auto-refresh formatted search is not working properly...

I have created a User Defined Field in Item Master named: FLD1 (Alphanumeric 30)
Then I have created a User Defined Field in Marketing Documents Row: FLD1 (Alphanumeric 30)
Now I want as follows u2013
In Marketing Documents if I select any Item, the value saved in FLD1 in the Item Master will come automatically in the Field FLD1 of the Marketing Document.
I did as follows u2013
I have created a formatted search for the above marketing document (in Sales Quotation) for the field FLD1 as follows u2013
Option: Search in Existing User-Defined Values according to Saved Query
Query: GetItemFLD1 (SELECT $[OITM.U_FLD1] )
Option: Auto Refresh -
When Exiting Altered Column
Field: Item Description
Option: Display Saved User-Defined Values
But the above is not working automatically --- after saving the document if I click on the Formatted Search Marker then the value comes otherwise not.
Can any one please explain the reason behind?

Eyedropper Tool Not Working Properly: Photoshop CC 2014

I have the very latest version of Photoshop CC 2014. But, even before updating, all of a sudden, my eyedropper tool isn't working properly. It used to be that I could pick up a color from any place on the image, no matter what layer I was on. Now, it seems that layer MUST be the active one for the eyedropper tool to pick up the color. So, what's going on?
If it means anything, I recently updated from OS X 10.8.5 to 10.9.5.

So, what's going on?
Possibly you paid no attention to the Tool’s settings in the Options Bar.

FW CS6 Align tool not working properly with lines of text

Much to my surprise the align tool is not aligning properly with text and I'm not sure what the issue is. My snap to grid distance is set at 1 in preferences.
Task: Left-align several vertically-stacked lines of type using the alignment tool. All lines have text-align: left.
Result: Some of lines of type display 1px off from each other. Using the right-align tool yields the same issue.
Oddly enough shapes align pixel-perfect.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I'm not certain of this, but I believe the Align panel aligns the text runs as opposed to the text boxes themselves. This should be a good thing, as it's usually the text that needs to be aligned, not the invisible boxes containing the text.
Could that be what's happening?
