How do I search for a PROJECT name?

I go to Find>Other Data>Project>includes>{string}, but it doesn't find the string (which I know exists).
I've tried this from Library, All Photos, and from Blue Folders that contain projects. Doesn't find anything.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

I put in a feature request for a "spotlight" type feature in the Projects Inspector. Please do the same.
If I remember which folder I put it in, I don't need to search for it.
Also the method above just displays the images from that project. It doesn't tell me precisely where the project is located.

How can i search for multiple file names (images) in bridge?

Hello everyone!
Does anyone know how to search for multiple file names in bridge?
That is to copy & paste something like this: _MG_2152, _MG_2177, _MG_2194, _MG_2195, _MG_2202, _MG_2212, _MG_2219, _MG_2261, _MG_2362, _MG_2401
Not using several criterias in the search box that is. That takes too long.
Thanks

How do I search for a Folder (name) inside a folder?

I am using FF 3.6.3, I an attempting to use FF Search to locate a specific Folder, which I placed inside another Folder.
In this case, I have a Folder entitled 'Health' (no quotes), I research, and have various health-issues placed inside this folder. I am attempting to place new bookmarks within the aforementioned folder, however I only receive the various prior bookmarks, and it seems that 'FF Search' is incapable at this time to inform me as to which folder my previous bookmarks with this particular (specific) Health Issue are located within.
I would also like to take it out of that folder, and perhaps place it in General Bookmarks so that I will not lose track of it again.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

You can install this add-on t0 add a column to the Library window ( Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks ) to indicate which Folders your search items are located:

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

How do I search for a word through multiple files in my directories ??

Hello everyone
How do I search for a word through multiple files in my directories ??
I am guessing one tedious way to do it would be to pass all the file names as command line arguments but I"m sure there exist a much easier and faster way to do it.
Thanks a lot

You need to pass only the directory name as parameter and then retrieve the files(recursively throug subdirs or not, however you wish) of that directory.
There were at least 2 threads yesterday on how to retrieve files from directory, and there are many others in the archive so I leave the search part to you ;)

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 do i search for a string in a txt file using java??

How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??
could you please help thanks

Regular expressinos work just fine, especially when
searching for patterns. But they seem to be impying
it's a specific group of characters they're looking
for, and indexOf() is much faster than a regex.If he's reading from a file, the I/O time will likely swamp any performance hit that regex introduces. I think contains() (or indexOf() if he's not on 5.0 yet) is preferable to regex just because it's simpler. (And in the case of contains(), the name makes for a very clear, direct mapping between your intent and the code that realizes it.)

How do you search for a song in the latest version of ITunes??

How do you search for a song in the latest version of ITunes??
Yes this might be the stupidest question ever, but leave it to Apple to make the simplest thing hard.
In EVERY version of Itunes, up until 11, you used to be able to type an artists name, song name, or album into the search field and it would narrow it down so that you can see what you are looking for (in the list below). Now, Itunes tells you that you have music by said artist, yet doesn't list them whatsoever. Furthermore, when you click on the results it doesn't list them for you either.
I'm sure it is some weird setting, but cannot for the life of me find. I cannot name one application that doesn't show a list when you type in the search field. Augh!
Please help.

Search for a project

Is there a way to search for a project? I imported 6 years worth of files, previously organized under Windows in folders - "year/[group of dates equal to DVD size]/date-subject description" (e.g., "2006/010106-022806/20060101-NewYears", etc.). I would like to search for "newyears" and have all projects with that phrase in the name show somewhere or filter out the rest (or even just go to the next project containing the phrase).
I can't seem to find such a capability in Aperture. I haven't seen it mentioned in books or in a search of the forum. I would have thought that would have been a need for a professional photographer or advance hobbyist, the audience for Aperture.

This is the reason why I always add a keyword named as the project where the image is.
Aperture still have to include more searching options, the actual ones aren't good for everyone needs.

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.

Can't see home network on MBP-how do i search for it?-how to map a drive?

i'm new to the mac computers -- i just recently bought a MBP -- i have connected it to our home network -- my husband has a PC that has files on it that we both share and use -- i've gone to finder and sometimes i'll see his computer on it but most times i won't. how do i "search" for it? i know how to do that on a pc but can't seem to find a way to search for network folders on the mac? is there a way to map a drive on the mac like you can on the pc?

if his computer is turned on and the file is shared then you should be able to open up your 'mac HD' and on the left side under devices you should see the name of his computer... after you click the device it will then list all the files that are shared... you may also want to check the sharing permissions that he has set on the folders as well

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.
