How can I 'search' for Line/Page Breaks in Pages 5.5.2?

In the old version of Pages I was able to Find Line/Page Breaks by copying these symbols from the document and pasting them into the Find box. However, when I do this in Pages 5, all I see pasted is a blank space.
How can I copy and paste symbols?

Visit the View menu, and select Show Invisibles. The page breaks will be a blue line across the page with a document icon at the end of that line. The hard (paragraph) returns are the pilcrow ¶ character.
Select the page or paragraph break symbol, and then press cmd+E. This is shorthand for use the selected character for the search. Next press cmd+F to open the Find panel, which will now be pre-populated with the character you want to find. In the gear icon, choose Whole Word. Then press the > key to advance to the next found character. There is no left panel display that shows the page number(s) that the found characters appear on.

How do I search for lines with a particular pattern and delete them when a match occurs

Lines in what? And what language are you using to develop with?
Are the lines in a text file? A RichTextBox? A TextBox? Some other control? A List(Of String)?
Is there some expectation by you that by providing what you wrote in your question post that the knowledge in your mind about what you are thinking about will mysteriously emanate to anybody reading your post so all of the sudden your knowledge will
become their knowledge and they will be able to provide you with an answer as they will suddenly understand what you are trying to do? Because that's probably impossible. Most people try providing enough information in a question so anybody, even stupid people
like me, can understand what they want. Maybe you should try that. As well as selecting an appropriate forum for your question in the future. Usually a question like this is related to programming in a particular language therefore a language forum may be
a good choice. Or not.

How Can I Search for Media files by Length?

I want know how can I search for media files (mov, mp4, flv and movie files in general) by their length?
If this search function is confirmed as definitely not possible on the OS, I would appreciate someone recommending app that might be able to perform such a search?
Many thanks

No possible way. Because the files may be enoded with differing codecs, compression, etc., you can only sort by file size, not the 'length' of the movie files.

How can I search for duplicate photos in iPhoto libraries?

How can I search for duplicate photos in iPhoto 9.5.1 library. Installed on iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, Mavericks 10.9.5.

These applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) - this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison. It found all duplicates
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates: PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto. None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates. IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

How can one search for a filename anywhere on the Mac?

How can one search for a filename anywhere or everywhere on the Mac?

You can configure Spotlight so it will also search in system files or you can download and use EasyFind 4.9.3 that doesn't require special configuration.
Get Spotlight to search system files (and more)
Enter the search term in the Finder window's search field.
Click the [+] button in the search bar to add a search option.
In the first drop down menu choose Other.
Choose “System Files” from the list that pops up (and check the box to place in drop down menu to avoid this step later,) click on the OK button.
Now back in the Finder choose Include from the second drop down menu.

How can I search for email senders and/or email subject(s)?

I'm probably not savvy enough to figure this out. When I search, e.g. for "Katie" I get to look at several messages where she is cc'd. I also receive messages from "Katie." How do I search for them? I know they are there because I just sent one to trash the other day. I suspect there are a number of them in trash. The only way I seem to be able to access them is to scroll...and that's a bummer.

How can i search for a color that is not in the color palette? (CS 5.5)

I have a client, that has used a certain color in a series of textfields throughout the document.
The color consists of all 4 CMYK colors and needs to be just Keycolor. However the color is not in the swatches menu, so marking it there and changing it won't work. I have downloaded a script that might have worked, but it could only find colors that were in the swatches palette. (Find / Change by Color / Overprint" version 1.2).
Ofcourse, creating a similar color and adding it to the swatches doesn't work.
Is there anyway that i can search for the color or does it really have to be done manually.
Best regards

You can only search for real, actually existing swatches. No sweat: use "Add Unnamed Colors" in the Swatch panel dropdown menu to get a list of all of the manually applied colors.
Since you want to change all of them to the same color, you don't even have to use Search/Replace. Simply delete the new colors and select the one you need in the "Replace With" dialog that appears.

How can I "search" for Library Items?

I am developing a site in flash and have over 800 Library Items. My problem is, I need to edit a portion of a Library Item and cannot find the Library Item, and NO, I did not delete the Library Item because when I go to preview or test the flash document, the Library Item is there in the movie. Is there any way to search for the Library Item? I am using Flash Professional 8..
Thank you.

I'm not sure how you would search for it if you don't know how to identify it. You should be able to doubleclick on the object on the stage to open it up for editing. When you do that, the stage area will display the library name of the object at the top of the stage border in a tab. Things are ordered alphabetically in the library, so if you know the library name of the object you should be able to narrow down where it is.

How can I search for files in System and Library folders

This arrose when I tried to find Archive Utility.app. Neither a Finder search or Spotlight found it, apparently because it is in Hard Drive/System/Library/CoreServices and the System folder is not searched. I've had similar problems when trying to find things in Library. How can I search these folders?

You can enable the Finder to include System files in its search
In a Finder finder window select Kind then Other… locate System files in the list and click the checkbox.

How do I exclude directories from Finder search results? I'm trying to find the biggest FILES on my computer and it keeps showing me "Macintosh HD" as the biggest, how can I search for files of type "NOT folder/directory"?

Basically I've lost 10GB of free space over the last few weeks so my plan was to search for files modified in the last 2 weeks in order to figure out which ones are big and where that space went.
So I open finder, go to "File > Find", and enter a search:
Modified > In the last 2 weeks
All fine so far.
Problem is, it's showing whole directories as results. Which essentially means that when I order the list by size, Macintosh HD is at the top, followed by "Users", then "Applications", then one of my bigger movie files, then "Library", etc.
How can I do a search which will ignore folders? I want individual files. Knowing that Macintosh HD is the biggest item on my computer and was modified in the last 2 weeks is utterly useless to me.
Older versions of Finder in OS 9 had a feature where you could search for "files, whose type "IS NOT" folder", but OS X doesn't seem to have such a feature.
Can anyone help?

How much free space is on the HD, where has all the space gone?
OmniDiskSweeper is likely the easiest/best, and is now free...

How can I search for an exact string match in my emails?

I was looking for an old email that I had about Re-Animator The Musical. So, in the search bar in the upper right corner of the Thunderbird window, I typed "re-animator". I got 59 hits, and the message that actually contained the string "re-animator" was 27th, when sorted by relevance. All of the other hits were emails which contained the word "animal" or "animals", which to me has nothing to do with "re-animator". I'm surprised that those were considered hits at all, much less that they were considered more relevant than the one message which actually contained the desired string.
I actually tried three different searches:
reanimator
re-animator
"re-animator"
(i. e. the first two were without quotes and the third was with quotes). All three of these variations had the same problem, though, that messages containing "animal" were ranked before the message containing "re-animator".
The desired message contained the word "Re-Animator" (with that capitalization and hyphenation), and also contained "reanimatorthemusical" as part of a URL that was mentioned in the message. So, I would have expected both the search with the hyphen and the search without the hyphen to have been good hits for this message.
My question is: How can I tell Thunderbird to search for messages that literally contain the string I ask for, and not get "creative" with the matches, as it seems to be doing for some reason?
(I'm using Thunderbird 31.3.0 on Mac OS X 10.9.5.)

No, searching for:
"Animator" musical
still has the exact same problem: it still wants to find "animal" instead of "animator". Why?
Yes, I had already read the support article you linked to, but I hadn't found anything in it about why Thunderbird would prefer "animal" over "animator", or how to disable this misfeature. Is there no better documentation for the search bar than that?
(And the search for "Animator The Musical" didn't find my message, simply because my message didn't contain that exact string. It contained "I am on a waiting list for some musical tickets for Sunday, but I haven't heard back yet. It is a preview of The Re-Animator. ( http://www.reanimatorthemusical.com/ )." The search for "Animator The Musical" only had a single hit, your message in which you suggest searching for that.)
