How can I get Spotlight to search my Users/Shared folder?

How can I get Spotlight to search my Users/Shared folder?  It searches the folders in the other users, but not Shared.  When I CMD-I the Shared folder, my group has read-write privileges (all groups have at least read-only privileges).  When I do the search in the Finder window (with the Shared folder highlighted), It gives me the options of This Mac and "Shared".  When I click on "Shared," it does not give me any results.  I keep documents, photos, iTunes data, etc, in this Shared folder, and would like to be able to use Spotlight on it.

I appreciate the 108 "views," but there weren't any replies, so I took another shot at figuring it out.  I did a CMD-I on the Shared folder, and made the "everyone" group have read-write access, and it worked!  I'm not sure if its because now all groups have read-write access, or just because the "everyone" group does, but I don't care at this point.    I'll have to restrict a few folders within in there, but at least it searches the main Shared folder itself now.

  • How can i get back the adobe creative cloud shared folder after I deleting it?

    How can i get back the adobe creative cloud shared folder after I deleting it?

    I think Adobe pulled the Creative Connect Desktop app until the new CC release next month. I just built a new PC and noticed it wasn't available in the app manager any more. On my other machines it isn't working anyway. In another post Adobe devs said they new it was down because thay were working out some server issues. It looks like they couldn't resolve them.
    I bought into the CC right from the beginning since I never buy my software outright but rather use a credit card. I thought that getting the whole master suite for $30 a month interest free was a great deal. Having all the software has been great, but it was over a year before we even saw a desktop syncing folder and noe it seens as though we are going to have server problems every time they upgrade the cloud leaving us to have to use the cluncky web interface during these sync blackouts.
    I can tell you Adobe better get it together cause ther starting to p*ss off a lot of loyal customers. It feels like were dealing with a cellphone company who only gives deals to the new customers and once you've signed the contract your screwed.

  • How can I get Thunderbird to search the Junk Mail folder as it does any other folder?

    Just noticed that Thunderbird's global search seems to omit the Junk folder. I assume this must be a problem with my configuration. Junk filters are not perfect and inevitably some "good" email ends up in the Junk folder at least temporarily. Therefore if I am searching all my email for something, I need that search to include the Junk folder. But I can't find the setting that would make this possible. Help, anyone?

    I appreciate the 108 "views," but there weren't any replies, so I took another shot at figuring it out.  I did a CMD-I on the Shared folder, and made the "everyone" group have read-write access, and it worked!  I'm not sure if its because now all groups have read-write access, or just because the "everyone" group does, but I don't care at this point.    I'll have to restrict a few folders within in there, but at least it searches the main Shared folder itself now.

  • How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?

    How can I get Firefox to search my computer for plugins that are already there?
    Adobe's Flash player is already on my computer from IE 8. How can I get Firefox to see that it is already on my PC and use it so I don't have to download it again and possibly create other problems. Also, in my efforts to download Flash, Firefox activated IE which made me concerned that proceeding WOULD cause problems our just leave me where I am now where IE can use Flask but Firefox cannot.

    Internet Explorer uses a ActiveX version of the Flash player plugin as it does not work with other browsers.
    Download the Plugin-based browsers version from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and make sure Firefox is closed when you install it.

    Hi,
    Depending on what attributes you want.
    Import-Module ActiveDirectory
    #From a txt file
    $USERS = Get-Content C:\Temp\USER-LIST.txt
    $USERS|Foreach{Get-ADUser $_ -Properties * |Select SAMAccountName, mail, XXXXX}|Export-CSV -Path C:\Temp\USERS-ATTRIBUTES.csv
    #or from a csv file
    $USERS = Import-CSV C:\Temp\USER-LIST.csv
    $USERS|Foreach{Get-ADUser $_.SAMAccountName -Properties * |Select SAMAccountName, mail, XXXXX}|Export-CSV -Path C:\Temp\USERS-ATTRIBUTES.csv
    Regards,
    Dear
    Gautam Ji<abbr class="affil"></abbr>
    Thanks for replying I tried both but it did not work for me instead this command which i extended generated nice results
    Get-ADUser -Filter * -Property * | Select-Object Name,Created,createTimeStamp,DistinguishedName,DisplayName,
    EmployeeID,EmployeeNumber,Enabled,HomeDirectory,LastBadPasswordAttempt,LastLogonDate,LogonWorkstations,City,Manager,MemberOf,MobilePhone,PasswordLastSet,BadLogonCount,pwdLastSet,SamAccountName,UserPrincipalName,whenCreated,whenChanged
    | Export-CSV Allusers.csv -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8
    only one problem is that Manager column is generating this outcome rather showing exact name of the line Manager .
    CN=Mr XYZ ,OU=Users,OU=IT,OU=Departments,OU=Company ,DC=organization,DC=com,DC=tk

  • How can i get the list of all users present in the LDAP

    Hi Experts,
    How can i get the list of all users present in the LDAP ?
    Is there any API or function Code to get all user list??
    Please help me out!!!
    Help will be rewarded

    Well it will depend on exactly where your UME configuration points to in the LDAP tree but yes, it is possible to get all users.  Something like the following should do it:
    import com.sap.security.api.*;
    import com.sapportals.portal.prt.component.*;
    IUserFactory iuf;
    ISearchResult isr;
    IUser user
    String userid;
    iuf = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
    isr = iuf.getUniqueIDs();
    you will need to iterate the ISearchResult object but you can get IUser objects by
    userid = (String)isr.next();
    user = iuf.getUser(userid);
    then you can imanipulate / identify / or whatever you need with the user object

  • How can I get the language of the user logged on using only DI API?

    Hello,
    how can I get the language of the user logged on using only DI API,
    without invoking the UI?
    Can I read the value from some table using sql?
    I could write to file the first user's connection to the language code in SAP and then use it from external program, but I do not like this solution ...
    I know only this possibility:
            '_SboCy ==> SAPbobsCOM.Company
            '_SboCys ==> SAPbobsCOM.CompanyService
            '_SboApp ==> SAPbouiCOM.Application
            CodLng Dim As String = ""
            Dim lng As SAPbobsCOM.UserLanguages _SboCy.GetBusinessObject = (BoObjectTypes.oUserLanguages)
            If lng.GetByKey (_SboApp.Language) Then
                codLng = lng.LanguageShortName
                'Etc. ..
            End If
            lng = Nothing
    Thanks

    Hi Enrico,
    The language settings are held on the user's Windows profile and not in the database. In SBO 2007A onwards there is an XML file that is created by the SBO client (previous versions stored the information in the registry). The file is called b1-current-user.xml and you'll find it in the temporary application data under the user's profile (by default this will be C:\Documents and Settings\<profile>\Local Settings\Application Data\SAP\SAP Business One for Windows XP). This XML file contains a node that looks like the following:
    <leaf kind="single" name="Language" type="String">
         <value>8</value>
    </leaf>
    where the value is the language id that should correspond to the same setting in the DI API. If your application will always run on a workstation where the SBO client is installed then you could read this XML file. Of course, this file may not exist for a particular Windows user if they have never opened the SBO client so you'd need to have a default setting.
    If you application will be installed on a workstation which doesn't have an SBO client installed on it then there is no way to tell what default language to use and you'll need to build this logic in to your own application (eg have a screen where the user can choose their preferred langauge and then store this as a config file in a similar way to how the SBO client works).
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • HT204014 How can I get spotlight search to work over a network running OS X Server?

    I have installed OS X Server on an iMac to share its files over a network.
    I can access the files fine, but if I try and search the shared folders from another Mac on the network it yields no results.
    How can I get search to work as well as it does on the files on local disks.

    Spotlight searching of shared volumes works for me using OS X 10.10.3 Server and OS X 10.10.3 client, as follows:
    If I use Spotlight to search for some content "Aaron Aardvark" the file that contains this text does not seem to show up in the immediate results, but if I select "Show All in Finder" and switch from "This Mac" to "Shared" the file "untitled text.txt" that contains it is listed.
    In the past Spotlight was responsible for bringing servers to their knees, so I suspect that the above two-step process is a way of limiting server searches to cases where it is actually required.
    Server 4.1 (OS X 10.10.3) seems to add the extended attributes needed to allow Spotlight to index sharepoints:
         test_server3:~ admin$ ls -el /Volumes/Server\ 3\ Users/
         total 0
         drwxr-xr-x+ 4 admin  staff  136 30 Apr 17:02 Server 3 Users
          0: user:_spotlight inherited allow list,search,file_inherit,directory_inherit
         test_server3:~ admin$
    but in the past, e.g. Snow Leopard server, you could choose whether or not these attributes were set or not. IIRC  Snow Leopard clients would always include server volumes in Spotlight searches, causing significant slow-downs on the client, so a lot of sysadmins, myself included, chose not to enable it.

  • How can I get rid of search history in Safari on my iPad?

    When I highlight one to delete, the search kicks in. How can I get rid of the history?

    You can go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, cookies and data and then delete every bookmark and that should clear it temporarily, but it will only be temporary. As soon as you starting using the search again, then suggestions will appear again.
    I think that I may have misread your question - if you want to clear all of the history - use the Clear History button in the upper right corner of the History window. You cannot delete one item at a time.

  • No matter which bookmark i click on or url i type, firefox connects to yahoo!search, and even from there i cannot connect to the desired webpage. how can i get yahoo!search permanently disabled?

    since this morning [1 may] i cannot connect to any bookmarked or other url [except the firefox homepage?!], because the only connection made is to yahoo!search. and even when yahoo!search displays the search result correctly to the site i want to go on, if i click on that i only get returned to yahoo!search again. since i prefer not to use yahoo!search at all, how can i disable yahoo!search permanently?

    There are other things that need your attention.
    Check that you do not run Firefox in compatibility mode or with a reduced screen resolution.
    You can open the Properties of the Firefox desktop shortcut via the right-click context menu and check the "Compatibility" tab.
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    You can check if you have the XML files of the default search engines including Google in the browser\searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder.
    If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.
    Try to delete the search.json file and possible search-metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to reset the search engines to the default.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the "browser\searchplugins" folder in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

  • How can I get Bookmarks to ask me in which folder to store the bookmark?

    On my other computer & my wife's computer, when I click on 'Bookmarks' I am asked which folder I want to use to store the bookmark.
    It used to work that way on this computer but now it does not ask where to save the bookmark. I just saves it in the 'Recently Bookmarked' folder.
    How can I get back to asking me which folder to use?
    Thanks for any help.

  • How can I get settings files out of the Library folder?

    I had to do a clean reinstall (erase & reinstall) to clear up some problems on my Mac. Unfortunately, when you do this, your settings, customizations, bookmarks etc. aren't transferred over as they do when you upgrade in the normal way.
    For example, dashboard widgets are in each user's <home folder>/Library/Widgets folder.
    I could restore some of these settings by dragging the settings files from the old System Folder to the new one. Unfortunately, Apple is making this harder by hiding the Library folder in the user folder, both on the Mac and on the backup drive.
    There is a command to enter in Terminal to show your Library folder, but this only seemed to work on the Mac and not on my backup drive.
    How can I get key settings files out of the Library folder on my backup drive when the Library folder is hidden?
    Thanks

    Open the enclosing folder, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, and provide Library as the path.
