How can I filter messages that do NOT contain a specific word in the subject?

I want to do the opposite of what filtering normally does. I want to filter out messages that do not contain a word or a string.
For example, I want to display emails that do not contain the word "meeting" in the subject.
Is this possible? If so, how can it be done?

It's not built in. The TotalQuickFilter extension allows NOT and lots of other filter features:

How can I remove files that do not contain the number 1 or ~1?

I had to convert many .avi files. The new names all contain ~1. Those files I want to keep and remove the originals. There are scripts to remove files with a numeral such as 1. I need one to remove all files without the 1 or ~1.
I tried using a script that removed older files, but the new files seemed to have the same created dates and modified dates so that will just delete all the files.

Thanks for your input. I want to keep the files with a 1 or ~1 as it happens and delete the rest. I have written some scripts. I think I could write a script to delete all files with a 1, but of course that is not what I want. I guess
I need a script to delete all files except if they contain a 1. I haven't used a forum since way back in the PC mag days.
Whoops..........I just realized exactly what you were telling me and used your suggestion. I guess I was trying to do more work than I needed. I searched for all files with a 1 in the folder and then moved them to a different folder. Then
I deleted the rest. Job done. Thanks for the help.

How can I display images that are not included in any collection?

How can I display images that are not included in any collection (some filter or smart collection)? A smart collection with parameters "Collection - contains - empty field" does not work. Lightroom 5.

Thank you! Good idea! I ordered letters of the alphabet (space separated), and it works.

How can I find photos that are not assigned to any collection?

Hi !
I'm using LR 5.7.1 on a Mac.
When I've retouched raw pictures with PS CC (and do not need the PSD file any longer) I export the PSD (that is in my catalog) as JPG and let it add to my catalog automatically. After that I delete the PSD file. That works fine.
But .... the new JPG file is not assigned to any collection. That's no problem unless I forget to do it manually after that export (and import).
That brings me to my question.
How can I find photos that are not assigned to any collection?
I tried it with a smart collection after I found nothing suitable in library filter. The search criteria I tried are Source -> Collection with any of the conditions. One with an empty value field, then with just a space and so on.
Has anybody a good hint for me?
Thomas

You can also add numbers if you have collections that don't use alphabet characters.

Thanks for your quick response. I thought I had tried that but I must not have because it worked perfectly.

How can I filter to find photos NOT pinned to a map? I have 28,000 phots with many mapped and many not. The Search function does not include GPS data. I haven't found way to search metadata inside or out of Elements.

You don't that is the reason you blocked that person so you won't see the message.

You can text with anybody using your Android phone no matter what type of phone the other person is using. The phones will be using standard SMS text messaging. You cannot use your iPad to text with Android devices, Messages on the iPad only works with other Apple iOS devices.
If your friends are trying to message you from their iPhones to your iPad, they have to send the text to your Apple ID email address and you have to set up messages to use your Apple ID instead of the iPhone number. Your Apple ID should already be accessible in the settings since you have to set up Messages with your Apple ID in the first place.
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>Your Apple ID email address. Select the Apple ID in there.

There is no de-authorize process for Lightroom. Just download the latest version and use your License key to authorize on the new computer.

How do I retrieve messages that were accidentally cleared?

If it's on iMessage go to another iMessage device that's currently set up with your account and it might be there. If it's a normal text, go online or contact your provider to see your incomming and outgoing messages.

How do I find all of the photos that do NOT contain a specific person tag?

I am scanning my old photos and slides and organizing them with Photoshop Elements 12. I have recently started taging the pictures with family names. I see from this forum that I can search for untagged pictures but how can I find all the pictures that do NOT contain the "Smith" family tag but might contain the "Jones" family tag? Some pictures will be marked with more than one family name. The "Find by Details" option defaults to "includes" for keywords and people. There is no way to set it to "not includes".
I am running PSE12 on Windows 7 Professional on a Dell XPS desktop.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Don K.

See the online help:
http://helpx.adobe.com/elements-organizer/using/finding-media-files-keyword-tags.html#excl ude_media_files_from_a_search
The workaround is often to create a temporary tag for pictures not having a given keyword. Even with a very big catalog, tagging nearly all images is astonishly quick. You select based on the keyword, then use the option to show 'non matching' items, and assign them another (negative) keyword.

How to search for documents that do not contain a word in a section?

For example: (deleted% within folder) finds all documents that have deleted in the folder
I want to find all documents that do not contain "deleted%" within folder.

If you have other criteria, then you can use "other criteria NOT deleted% within folder". However, if there is no other criteria, then you cannot just begin with NOT, so you have to use "% NOT deleted% within folder", but on a large data set that will result in an error about the wildcard expanding to too many terms.

How can i delete messages that are saved on imessage

Hi. I have an iPhone 5s (16gb). I have no storage left on my phone and for some reason whenever I try to send someone who has and who doesn't have an iPhone a message through iMessage, my message send but i don't receive any messages. When I click send my message goes through but it still says sending on the top. I tried restarting my phone and backing it up but the problem is not not resolved. I was looking at my settings the other day and realized the my 'saved' messages on iMessages take up 11.0gb. I found this out by clicking settings -> general -> usage. I figured maybe this might be the problem because I have no storage left due to my messages. How can I delete these 'saved' messages so i can have enough storage to update my phone (my phone hasn't been updated since 6/2014)? Another issue I'm having due to my lack of updating my phone is that my camera roll application always crashes on me and is constantly restoring my photos. It attempts to restore but it then says I have 0 photos. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Brian,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone.
I found the steps to delete a song from your iPhone on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide ( http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf ):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

How can I find photos that are not in any event?

Help! I have finally, after a decade or so, organized my events and emptied out the trash and gotten rid of duplicates. Round of applause, please. How can I find out if there are sneaky pictures that are NOT in any particular event (please dont say by showing all photos and just going through each one!)

You can't because every photo is in an Event already. That's how iPhoto works. Every photo is in the LIbrary. The Library is built upon events. SO if it's in iPhoto, it's in the Library and in an Event.
Albums are different, as they refernce photos in the LIbrary. It;s perfectly possilbe to have a photo in the Library but not in an album.
