How do I search for sticky notes in a PDF doc?

Several people (at work) have commented on a 440-page document that I created, using sticky notes to write their comments in. When I first open the document, the sticky notes are all closed. The icon for a closed sticky note is pretty small and not brightly colored, so they're easy to miss when scrolling through hundreds of image-heavy pages. I am hoping that it's possible to search for each occurrence of a sticky note.
If there is no way to search for the notes, is there a command I can use to open all the notes in the file (in one action) so that they are larger and easier to spot?
Platform: Windows 8 PC
Version: Acrobat 8
If this is not a feature available in Acrobat 8, is it possible to do this in later versions?
Apologies if this is not the right community for this question, but none of the ones listed seemed like the obvious choice, and there is no "miscellaneous" or "general" category. If there is a better community for the question, please let me know.
Thanks,
Joyce.

Out the gate you've a problem.
The Acrobat 8 product family passed into "End of Support" many years ago (well before the release of Windows 8).
"End of Support" means -- well, just that eh.
The Acrobat 8 product family is not compatible with Windows 8.1, 8 or 7.
The Acrobat XI product family is compatible with Windows 8 / 8.1.
Regarding Comment and Mark Up Annotations:
With Acrobat 8 Pro use the "Comments List".
Same wit Acrobat 9 Pro, X Pro and XI Pro.
May be available with the various versions' "Standard" release.
The contents of a Comments List can be exported to a PDF report.
The filter an be used to display specific characteristics / attributes which then become the reports content when you output a report.
Having "8" the Help PDF file got loaded with the install of "8".
Use it to review the information provided on the Comments List.
Be well...

How can I: Search for files "not in catalog"

Is there a way to search for files/photos on my hard drive that are *NOT* already in my catalog?
(a) I can do a mass search to find all photos on my hard drive.
(b) And there is a reconnect feature - for all entries in catalog with a missing/invalid link, look for the file that matches best.
But I'd like to have Elements find photos that I have not added to the catalog.
That is, do (a), but check each one to see if it is already added.
Is there a way to do that?
Thanks,
-ceej

What you want to achieve by finding those files?
In folder view you can see the folder which have no media files in Organizer.
If you import all the files form all the drives on your system, by deafult you will see files just imported into catalog. That means, just after import ou will have the files which were not in your catalog :-)
I know my answer could be confusing for you, but it will make sense if you know what happens after import in Organizer...

Photo albums are not searched by Spotlight Search. Go to Settings > General > Spotlight Search to see and reorder the available search items.

On an iOS device you should have a search tab at the bottom of the App Store app.

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.

How do I search for a previous question I posted?

Hi
How do I find older questions I had posted on the forum/community?
I had posted a question a few months prior and had a response. I'd like to look up that resonse again, but I cannot find it in my history.
The post is only a few months old, but does not show up in the history of my posts (that I can find).
How do I search for ALL of my old posts?

Click Your Stuff > DIscusssions. This should list all the threads you have contributed to, most recently active first, and paged back to your earliest post.
If you use the filter for Open Questions or Answered Questions you should see the threads that you started, still open and marked answered respectively.
If your thread really has disappeared then the usual explanation was that something contentious got added to it and the hosts deceived to evaporate the whole thing.

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 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 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 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.)

I have a iphone 5. How do I search for a event from 2013 under search? I do have "all events" selected

I have a iphone 5. How do I search for a event from 2013 under search? I do have "all events" selected

I would check, but I believe I have read that the calendar only lets you search back in the current year. You might find additional information about that in the User Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
What happens if you go back to a month in 2013, do you see a date with any events in it? I'm not saying the calendar is deleting data, just that you cannot search earlier than the current year.

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 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.
