How do I get DNS searchs to span multiple network interaces?

Each of our developer machines have two network cards. One is attached to the corporate network the other to a private network. There is a DNS server running on both networks. On our windows boxes we have no trouble doing something like
ping <device-name-on-corporate-network>
ping <device-name-on-private-network>
On our newly purchased Mac Minis running Mavericks 10.9.2 it doesn't work the same way.
If the service order has the corporate network above the private network then the ping of the corporate device name works but the ping of the private device name doesn't.
If I swtich the service order so the private network is above the corporate network then the ping of the private device name works but not the coporate one.
From what I am seeing I believe that on the Macs when a DNS lookup request failure is returned by the DNS server associated with highest active network in the service order list the DNS server associated with next highest active network in the service order is not being sent a DNS lookup request. Is this correct or am I missing a setting someplace?

I found another the solution was already posted in response to the following question in the discussions group.

How can I get a search bar added when trying to archieve emails in my IPhone's email app?

My IPhone email app is connected to my Outlook email system in which I have many archieved folders, when I want to place an email in my archieved folders on my IPhone I have to scroll a long list of archieved folders to find the right one, how can I get a search bar added to find it easier? My colleague' s Samsung has that function already and can't believe that Apple can be behind Samsung on this.

i want to buy an ipad 2 3G but i am not a US resident, how can i get to work on a local network NOT verizon or AT&T

From your screen name would it be safe to guess that you will be using it in Egypt? If your carrier uses is a GSM network you can do as Chris suggests.
From the Apple page http://www.apple.com/eg/buy/ there is a link to Arab Buisness Machine, they sell the iPad 2 and offer local support should any problems arise.

How do I get google search in my Safari address bar?

I have a MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7. Apple store just reloaded the 10.7. Everything works except that the google search is no longer in the Safari address bar. How to I get that back? Thanks.

Safari preferences, General icon, select preferred search engine from dropdown menu. Or do you mean the Search Field? If so, it's not used anymore. Use the URL field to search.

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 do I get the search feature when I right click?

I just recently ran an update. Now I do not have the "search" feature when I right click. I used this extensively, and would really like the option back. I had to uninstall some things when I ran the update, because I didn't want the search engine or toolbar that automatically installed with the update. How do I get my right click search feature back?

The problem is that I've been able to do it in the past. I've been able to select any word and right click a search. Ever since I upgraded it, it's all messed up. I can't right click search, and I keep getting these stupid "You've won" websites popping up. Any suggestions on undoing the upgrade, and going back to the way things were?

OK_ How do I get the music to span over the course of my slide show?

I can only seem to get music onto one image at a time-- how do I get the same song to continue from slide to slide as it plays? Please HELP LOVE MJ

Go to the Inspector, then the Document tab, then the Audio tab. Within the window there is a section where you can choose a soundtrack for your presentation. You can chose to loop the song or to play it once, or to turn it off. You also gain volume control in this panel for the song as it goes through your presentation. Note, you need to drag your song out of the media browser and into the square window in the to left corner of the Audio tab in the Inspector.

How do you get the search bar back in the internet browser

my internet browser shows my bookmarked pages, but not the space to type in websites, how do i get this to come back?

Hmmm--doesn't sound familiar. I think you'll do better asking in the Safari forum here:
Safari
There are some authentic browser gurus there. Be sure to tell them the Mac OS version you are running as well as the version of Safari. You'll get faster help if they don't have to ask for those.

How do I get windows 7 to Index a network mapped drive?

I would like to change the location of my lobraries in Win 7 to a network drive but every time I change the location, it says it cannot be used because it's not indexed, so how do I get a network drive to be indexed or if there is a way around it I'd accept that too.

here's a solution... that indexes the contents of a folder on another networked computer - WITHOUT MAPPING THE NETWORK...
I don't like to spend a lot of time screwing around with the "mindboggling" os conflict stuff of Microsoft with Windows 7, Vista, xp-pro, etc.
THIS WORKS FOR ME... but since I'm just an "average user," I can't always explain the "intuitive" computer solutions to problems that I come up with in a sequential "step like" manner...
This SOLUTION may be useful in resolving other networking conflict issues when you are using various hardware and software.
The TWO computers I'm using for this example: a gaming Windows 7 x64 laptop, and an XP-Pro desktop. (I also have a Vista laptop, and another desktop with XP-home... but I don't use those that often - so I don't really care if this "solution"
works on those, etc.)
Anyway, I'll tell you the steps I did, though, I don't really understand "how all this works" - it just does.
Some points first, before I give you a "step by step..."
1. I can always access ALL NETWORK LOCATIONS AND FILES from my "Windows 7 x64" laptop.
2. I often can't access all network locations, etc. from my XP-Pro desktop... sometimes I can, but I don't know what I have done to cause this... and it's not to important to me... as long as MY MAIN LAPTOP can access everything on the network all
the time. (This probably has something to do with WIN 7 being "backwardly compatible" with previous hardware/software like XP but NOT THE REVERSE, etc. So, whenever I'm doing something "involving my network" ... I try to work "top-down" from the superior
WIN 7 system, etc.
OK... here's what I did... "experts" can figure out "if this is useful to you" and whether it has "other potential uses, etc."
here's a rough sketch of the "problem I was having" and the solution.
I often jump between two computers on my network... the win7 laptop and the xp pro desktop... and I wanted to have a "notepad file" that I use as a daily "do list," and I wanted to have it's contents change and be in sync, no matter which computer I had
updated the notepad file on. Now, I know THAT CAPABILITY is simply a matter of having it shared on the network. Now I originally created the notepad file on the xp desktop. Then, I went upstairs and found the shared folder I had put it in
from the desktop... and, of course, I could "change the contents of the file in sync" between the two computers...
Now, the problem came in when (from my laptop I could NOT INDEX the "shared folder on my desktop.") I tried MAPPING the network drive, and IT WOULDN'T do it...(some kind of issue between win7 and xp, etc.)
ANOTHER COMPLETELY DIFFERENT APPROACH occurred to me... AND THAT WORKED...so here's what was involved... and it INDEXED THE "SHARED FOLDER ON THE DESKTOP COMPUTER" without "mapping the network." ...why this works... YA GOT ME... BUT IT DOES!
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: (all below is for WIN 7 X64 networked with older systems like XP... this method may work in other cases, too)
1. I created a "notepad" file on my xp desktop. (called the file "bingo.txt")
2. Created a "folder" and named it "bingo" also. (made this a "shared folder" and put the "bingo.txt" file in it)
3. Did a "network locations" search for this folder and put it in with the other shared folders/files in the "desktop network" location.
4. Went upstairs to my "win7 laptop"
a. pressed the Start button and entered "favorites" (without the quotation marks) into the little "search" rectangle that appeared just above the Start button. The "Favorites" folder appeared at the top of the list. I clicked on it and
the Favorites folder opened... then I "right clicked" on the "Recent Places" folder and created a "shortcut" on my desktop.
b. Now, whenever I click on any folder or file including the "shortcut to bingo.txt (which is on my win7 laptop for quick access)...well, the NETWORKED FOLDER: "bingo" suddenly shows up in "Recent Places" as a shortcut. THESE SHORTCUTS
CAN BE DELETED since that's all they are ... JUST BE SURE you are still in the RECENT PLACES FOLDER. For example: I clicked on a "shared network folder" and almost deleted it by accident... NOT REALIZING THAT I WAS NO LONGER IN THE "Recent Places"
folder...so, make sure before you delete. It's of course OK to "select all" and delete all the shortcuts that accumulate over time in the "Recent Places" folder, etc. Also I set the "sort" on the Recent Places folder to date/time, so that the "most
recent" place I have been "is always at the top of the list.
c. So, far - and this is interesting - ONLY FOLDERS SHOW UP in the locations you visit then look for in the "Recent Places" folder. So, for example, when I click on the shortcut (on my win7 laptop) for "bingo.txt"... and then later check the
Recent Places folder... well, only the "shared network folder BINGO appears there!" (not the bingo.txt file that's in it... I didn't click on the actual folder, just the bingo.txt shortcut, but what appears in the Recent Places folder IS ONLY THE NETWORK
FOLDER)
d. Now, the mystery: (my win7 computer was "indexing" in the background all this time) WHEN I DID A SEARCH FOR "bingo" ...the "bingo.txt" file was at the top of the list... I "right clicked" on it to check the properties (thinking the index has just
located the shortcut on my desktop maybe)...BUT THE PROPERTIES ...showed the "networked location" on my desktop downstairs.
e. IN CONCLUSION: I now have the capability to INDEX folders/files ON OTHER NETWORKED COMPUTERS from my "win7 x64 laptop" WITHOUT HAVING TO MAP THE NETWORK DRIVE!!! (maybe because the index catches the "bingo folder" being CURRENTLY ACCESSED
INDIVIDUALLY when I pull up the "Bingo.txt" by clicking it's shortcut on my laptop....
you guys can play around with this... DON'T KNOW WHY the "index" didn't show "bingo.txt" (residing on my desktop downstairs) until I placed a "shortcut" to the "Recent Places" folder on my laptop desktop screen... might have something to do with the "complex
index parameters" of Win 7, etc... but I don't have the time to try an trace it down, or test it, etc.
... The win 7 indexing system MAY INDEX ANY SHARED FOLDER from another networked computer WHEN IT'S BEING ACCESSED LIVE on the win 7 computer... is probably what's happening... so I didn't have to "map the network drive" but I did have to "BE ACCESSING A
FOLDER from another computer" for it to INDEX THAT FOLDER... now I don't, for example, know whether the INDEX system of my win7 laptop (running in the background) might not index a folder IF IT WAS DOING SOMETHING ELSE IN A BRIEF TIME that I was accessing
the folder from the other computer.
Win 7 index, from my experience, does seem to give some preference to INDEXING files you have recently or are currently accessing... if that helps.
anyway,
hope this helps some
flashrob (my website: dimestop.com if you're interested... probably put some of my fixes there, more permanently, etc.)

How do I get my old printer off the network?

Hello
I have a Lexmark Z1480 - if I go onto Bonjour I can see the network webpage my my printer configurations...
I have uninstalled all Lexmark software etc as best I could and that part seems OK...
There is still however the Lexmark network webpage that my wireless printer was using to print wirelessly on my network...
How can I get rid of this webpage - I just want shot of it!!
Many Thanks,
Mr Totsy

Ok...here goes...
Uninstalled all Lexmark drivers, utilities, software junk from the HD...
Dragged and dropped the ones that didn't go at the 'uninstall' into the Trash...the machine is now completely clear
When I switch the printer on, the wireless WIFI icon on the side of the printer is still glowing 'green'...
It is clearly still connected to my wireless network somehow...
I want to install a new printer onto my network and i'm sure the software that comes with the new printer will allow me to do that no problem...
When I click on the printers network webpage (click on 'show all bookmarks'; select Bonjour; it's listed below the Bonjour intro page) it has all the settings which allow the printer to work correctly on my home network...
Here is the million dollar question...how do I delete that page? It is password protected and no doubt it will be difficult to crack, but wouldn't it be much more secure for me if it wasn't there to be cracked in the first place?
Any help on how to delete the network connection for my printer would be very much appreciated...it is still there after the uninstall process...
Any and all please wade into the debate...the more help the better...I'm a bit of a luddite when it comes to tech stuff like this...
There are plenty of Mac Experts who could give me a hand here !!!!!
Many Thanks,
Mr Totsy
