How can I limit searches to documents only, not emails?

When I do a search for documents containing a particular word, I would like it to find documents -- not emails containing that word. How can I "turn off" searching emails?

You can't. Although, the Spotlight show search results has mail and webpages listed only applies to Spotlight searches using CMD+spacebar or clicking on the Spotlight icon. At least that's what engineering responded when I filed a bug against that nonsensical behavior in Lion.
After reviewing your submission engineering has determined that the behavior you reported is as expected/designed.
The spotlight preferences set in the prefpane only apply to the spotlight menu in the menubar, not in the finder.
All I can suggest is that you File an enhancement request with Apple asking them to restore the behavior to all Spotlight-based find operations. Do note that they'll most likely not do it.

How can I set Mail to show only one email at a time

Mail will group emails based on subject or sender and then I keep losing or missing emails because they get buried in a thread. Sometimes under another persons name!
I'm old and easily confused.
I just want one email per line. No grouping. Can't seem to figure out how.
Thanks!

How can I print in black/white only a document that has colors in the original?

How can I print in black/white only a document that has colors in its original. I don't need the print out to be in color, and I don't want to waste the color ink.

It depends on your printer and the application you are using.
In some applications you can choose color vs. greyscale/black&white when you do File > Print. PowerPoint is one example of an application that allows this choice.
Otherwise, you can usually select greyscale at the time you print the document. Do File > Print. In the resulting dialog box, there should be an item called Copies & Pages (in Word and other applications) or Preview (in Preview). Click it. In the resulting list, you should then see an option called Printer Features. Click it. Then you should see an option called Printout Mode. Usually one of the modes is Greyscale or Black & White. Select it. Then Print.
This can also depend on your printer. Exactly what make/model printer are you using? And what kind of document are you trying to print (Word, PPT, JPEG, etc)?

How can I limit Analog Output to positive only?

Hi everyone,
I'm using PXI 7350 and UMI 7774 for controlling a DC brushless motor,
the problem is that the drive for the motor only supports positive voltage input ( to adjust motor's velocity).
So how can I limit the output voltage to positive ?
I'm new to labview and I have been confused by this problem for a long time , so it will be geat if there's any example vi of that !
Thanks for any help !

What are you using for feedback? If you are only moving in one direction, then you don't have to worry about limiting the analog to positive, the controller will take care of that.

HT2729 I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

I have limited space on my new ipad. How can I limit the number of songs from my itunes on my imac from going to my ipad when I connect the two?

you can do this by keeping the external hard drive connected and doing the following
-hold shift key down on computer while opening iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose a library
-select choose library, iTunes should bring up your explorer windows where you can search for the external HD
-after you find the external HD find the iTunes folder you just copied to it
-after opening the iTunes folder look for the file that says iTunes library.itl or if you can't see that extenstion just look for a document looking thing in the iTunes folder that shows up as a database file
-double click the database file and boom iTunes should load your library without having to copy it to the computer
PS: do make sure that if you are going to do it this way, make sure that the external HD is connected at all times, because if you don't then you will get exclamation marks next to your iTunes songs
double PS: if you are unsure how to find out if the iTunes library file is a database file just right click it and choose properties and under the type it should say database file
hope this helps:)

How can I recognise the text in only the top portion of a page?

I am using Acrobat XI Pro and wish to recognise the text in only the top portion of a page. The document is made of of pages of music and I only want to be able to search the title section of each page. Recognising the text in the body of the music makes it difficult to search and find each piece. How can I apply Text Recognition to only the top portion of each page? And if possible how do I apply this to multiple pages simultaneously?
The other option I considered was separating each piece into its own file. However it is convenient for me to have all the pieces in one file if possible.

Thanks Test Screen Name,
Yes, "zoning". I can stop trying now.
Thank you

How can I limit the number of emails retained on my ipad air?

How can I limit the number of emails that are retained on my iPad Air? Because of legal requirements of a long-term project, I cannot permanently delete emails relating to that project from my ISP's mail server. My gmail account contains over 17,000 emails and, upon setting up my new iPad, and updating to ios 7.1.1, I now have all 17,000+ emails taking up space. I would like to limit the emails by count as I was able to do on my old iPad running ios 5.1.1 OR to retain them based on date range. I have not found any instructions on the support discussions or general iPad blogs that allow me to do that. Any way around this problem?
I also miss the 5.1.1 mail search feature that allowed me to narrow the search by from/to/subject/all. Does anyone know if that feature is available using some little-known ios 7.1.1 feature?
Thanks for your help.

IOS 7.1.1 doesn't show a "days to sync" parameter anywhere in SETTINGS/Mail,Contacts,Calendars/ACCOUNTS/GMAIL Account/ GMAIL Acccount Info. There is nothing in iTunes relating to such an option either. So, it seems I'm back to square one.
If you have a decent mail provider like Microsoft Hotmail or Outlook.com mail it does.
If you have Gmail it does not. Quite right. Gmail is rubbish.

How can I restrict options result to only one cost center?

In transaction KS03 (Display cost Center), when I search for a cost center (hit F4), I have an option to drill down by Company code, controlling area, Cost Center Category, Person Responsible etc.
My question is, how can I restrict users to select only controlling area they are authorized for ? Is there any authorization object I can use to restrict user's access to particular value in the table CSKS ?
Thanks,
Karan.

Hi Karan,
If you want to restrict on the values users can return when using F4 lookup then there may be some useful info in the following link:

How can I set my Mac to only share SPECIFIC folders with Win7

It used to work, but, even though I have set only my Public folder and a specific photographs folder to share with a Win7 PC on my home network, the Win7 machine can see the entire Mac HD.
I followed instructions from here:
http://www.trickyways.com/2011/07/file-sharing-mac-os-x-lion-and-pc-windows-7/
But if I type Run then enter the ip address of the Mac, all the folders appear. Is there a way to limit them to only the two specific folders?
I've mapped the single folder to a drive, so admittedly, unless you go into "Run", you can't see the other Mac folders and drives, but I'd still like to make sure it can't be done.
Thanks

How can I limit the number of rows returned by a select stat

How can I limit the number of rows returned by a select
statement. I have a query where I return the number of stores
that are located in a given area.. I only want to return the
first twenty-five stores. In some instances there may be over
200 stores in a given location.
I know is SQL 7 that I can set the pagesize to be 25....
Anything similiar in Oracle 8i?

Watch out. ROWNUM is run before ORDER BY so this would only

How can I get a downloaded document to open so I can permanently rotate it?

I get the following message when attempting to open a document in Adobe XI, "There was an error opening this document, access denied". How can I open the selected document and permanently rotate it 180 degrees?

For the first problem (not opening) try this.
- Open Adobe Reader XI
- Go to Edit - Preferences - General section
- Uncheck the option called "Enable Protected Mode at Startup"
- Save the changes, close Adobe Reader and it should be fixed.
As far as rotating, you can only rotate the view for the current session with Reader. It will not be saved once the document is closed.
