How do I search for a bookmark folder by name in Safari?

How do I search for a particular bookmark folder in Mac Safari 7.06? Since there seems to be no automated way to sort the folders (as in other browsers), in a long list of folders, a particular one can be hard to spot. Yes yes, very similar to a previous question of mine. -jan

Click "Help" menu in the Safari menu bar and enter the folder name in the search box.

How do I search for just a folder with Spotlight

How do I search for a folder with Spotlight, not a file? Spotlight is a great tool for finding a file, but often I just want to locat a folder.
When I find a file, how to I see the path to this file?
These are probably obvious question for longtime Mac users, but I come from the Windows world.

Activate the Finder's window. Put the folder name in the search field in the Finder's toolbar. Enter COMMAND-F which should change the Finder's window and give a toolbar above the column headers:
If you click on the dropdown menu with "Any" you will see this:
Select the "Folder" entry.

How do I search for a bookmark?

How do you search for a particular bookmark in safari on an iPad?

Here's the original question:
"How do you search for a particular bookmark in safari on an iPad?"
You can't get much more specific than that. But you answered my question -- It is not possible to search for bookmarks on an iPad. I was fairly sure that was the case, but now I know.
-Thanks

How can I search for a specific folder when filing an email message?

Dear all, first of all thanks for your support.
Please don’t hit me but I am currently a BlackBerry user, since this is the standard I got from the company I work for.
That said, new server technologies allows now to use also other devices with the same company server, something that gives me the chance to switch to an iPhone.
Basically it’s all ready for the switch, but just one thing holds me from making the step.
It’s the email messages filing procedure.
With the iPhone, assuming I am not missing something (something that I hope), when you want to file an email in one of your folders you select the “file” function and then you scroll with your finger across the folders list you have in your email account.
This is all right if you have an handful of folders, but if you have hundreds, if not thousands, of folders it will take forever to find the one you’re looking for.
With a BlackBerry, once you selected the email messages you’d like to file, and after you selected the “file” function, you can also scroll, but – very important for me – I can also start typing the initial letters of the folder I’m looking for. The more I type the less folders will appear, as less folders will match with letters I typed. Once the list is short enough to easily see the folder you want (usually after you typed two or three letters, which takes no more than a second), you can pick the folder you wanted in a blink of an eye.
This makes email messages filing a very fast operation, and since I use this for my job I can’t live without email filing.
If someone of you knows how to perform the same with an iPhone, and possibly with the original apple mail software, I will very glad to make the switch.
Thanks to all that will offer their support.
Regards.

How do I search for a song with the name I typed on my iPhone?

I run into this a lot and it is extremely frustrating. I want to find a song like "Menuetti", but the search results end up with hundreds of variations of "Menuetto". Even though I know Menuetti is there somewhere, I can't find the song I am looking for because there is so much garbage returned. Is there any way to get the iTunes store to return the few songs with the name I asked for rather than the hundreds with the name I did not?

You can choose what it searches and where

1) I pressed Menu\Bookmarks\ShowAllBookmarks to open bookmarks organizer. 2) I pressed Ctrl-F to search for some bookmark(s) (e.g. newspaper domain) and found some. NOW The qustion is "Which folder this/these bookmark(s) are actually located in"?

Salut!
The scenario is "Find bookmark existed before and recall which bookmarkfolder it is in"
Please note the "folder" is for "bookmarks", NOT a file folder of HDD-filesystem
1) I pressed Menu\Bookmarks\ShowAllBookmarks to open bookmarks organizer.
2) I pressed Ctrl-F to search for some bookmark(s) (e.g. newspaper domain) and found some.

Hey, guys. Thanks for responding. I really didn't know I was so clueless about this stuff.
I really thought "urxvt" could be used as an alias or, what we called in Debian, an alternative, to the rxvt-unicode-256color command. I guess not? I'm still trying to set up "vi" to be Vim as well, and I'll read more of the Wiki to figure that stuff out with Arch.
So in the tty interface I can start zsh again just fine. That's old news. I removed the TERM setting and placed the resource in my .Xresources that derhamster said. Thanks.
I also replaced the line in my Openbox rc.xml and menu.xml for terminal opening commands (can I use $TERM for those?)
Now when I start Xorg (with Openbox running) I tried both urxvt-unicode-256color and urxvt but none of them work with Openbox. No terminal emulator pops up and no errors show that I can see.

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 find a lost bookmark folder in another bookmark folder? I had a sticky mouse when I moved it.

How can I find a lost bookmark folder? A folder stuck on my mouse pointer I shook the mouse and it released the folder somewhere in the hundreds of other bookmark folders. I don't want to have to open every folder and search every file to locate it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Renaldo,
You might try restoring a backup of your bookmarks.
1. From the menu at the top of the Firefox window bar, click the Bookmarks menu and choose Organize Bookmarks to open the Library window.
2. Before proceeding, you should make a backup of your current bookmarks.
1. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup and choose Backup.
2. Firefox will ask you to save the bookmark backup to a folder on your hard drive. Choose a location that you will remember.
3. Your current bookmarks have been backed up to the file you selected.
3. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup to open the Import and Backup menu, and pick Restore to see a list of available bookmark backups organized by date.
4. To restore one of the listed backups, select it from the Restore menu. Choose the newest bookmark backup that was created before the bookmarks were lost. You will lose all changes to your bookmarks that occurred after the date you select.
'''NOTE:''' To restore a backup that you saved manually, select Choose File from the Restore menu instead of selecting an automatic backup
5. A confirmation window will appear asking you to confirm replacing your bookmarks with the backup. To replace the bookmarks, press OK. To go back, press Cancel.
'''NOTE:''' You cannot undo this unless you saved a backup file as instructed above.
6. Your bookmarks have been restored to the date you selected. If your bookmarks do not show up after completing the restore process, repeat the above steps to restore an earlier backup.
If the backup follows the bookmark structure then the missing folder should be displayed

How do I search for all "missing" tracks within the iTunes database?

I found the dreaded ! of death, and sadly I verified the tacks indeed are not on my hard drive.
Is there a way to sort on this tag so that I can see what else might be missing on my hard drive but remains in the database (sort of similar to how you can search for all tracks that have missing artwork)?

Thanks. It works perfectly.

When in i-tunes 11 mac, how do i search for a song as well as a genre at the same time?

when in i-tunes 11 mac, how do i search for a song as well as a genre at the same time?

If you mean searching for a song that you already have in your Library, then you can select "Music" first. Then, go across horizontally to Genres and select that; then by using the drop-down menu found under "View" & (of course) select "View Options"-- you will be presented with a limited # of choices to sort by.
My iTunes 11.0.5 shows 4 parameters to choose from: Title, Artist, Year and Rating. Then you can sort & finally...
Enjoy,
mm~
