How do I use search/find to search for a folder name

I can successfully use Spotlight and Search in Finder and Mail to find files and emails based on their titles and contents, but how to I use the search functions to find a FOLDER by its name, that I have somehere in my nests of folders - so I can then look inside that folder for what I am looking for.
The search results never seem to show up any folder names?

I do have several levels of nested email folders and several hundred folders created over the years. So I was hoping to be able to search for a folder's name, and be taken to it to see it and all of its contents.
The best I seem to be able to do is search for a word that I hope I remember is in one of the emails in that folder, and then find that email in the search results list - but that list still doesn't tell me where the folder in the nested heirarchy that is my mailbox

    The combo update may replace anything you have inadvertently deleted.
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    You can reapply it over the top of any previously downloaded version.  I see that your profile says 10.6.8.
    Then software update to pick up any new security, iTunes updates.

  • How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?

    How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?
    I have an external hard drive attached to my Airport Extreme and I can access it just fine through Finder.  I would like to be able to keyboard navigate to it in an efficient manner.  I tried to use the "Go to the folder" feature but was unable to.
    I had tried dragging the drive to the Network folder but the shortcut it created does not lead to the drive's contents...it seems to lead right back to the parent directory:
    I hope I explained the question well.  Thank you for all of your help and time in tending to my inquiry.

    Cant you set up "back to my mac" then go to finder preferences and put a check mark under everything under the shared location. Also set up back to my mac on your airport extreme.

  • How can I use app find iPod  for my daughters iPod even if she has own acct Id?

    How can I use app find iPod  for my daughters iPod even if she has own acct Id?

    Hi,
    So far so good! I was successful with my first request-and thanks, but I guess i did not ask enough.
    New question: Is there any way for me to have my Apple devices show up with my daughters even though we have different apple id's? I was able to have her sign in and I could see but, if she doesn't sign in I can't see her device. She is only 15 and I going on a trip soon that I would like to just have security if she looses her device or I'll know she is okay. I don't want to sync and see everything, just the where abouts of the device. We were able to create a music folder for her music only and not mine- Success!
    Did I ask too much?
    Thanks for your quick reply!

  • How do we use Data rules/error table for source validation?

    How do we use Data rules/error table for source validation?
    We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.3.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.3.33. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
    I reviewed the posting
    Re: Using Data Rules
    Thanks for this forum.
    I want to apply data rules to source table/view and rule violated rows should go to defined error table. Here is an example.
    Table ProjectA
    Pro_ID Number(10)
    Project_name Varchar(50)
    Pro_date Date
    As per above posting, I created the table in object editor, created the data rule
    NAME_NOT_NULL (ie project name not null). I specified the shadow table name as ProjectA_ERR
    In mapping editor, I have projectA as source. I did not find error table name and defined data rules in table properties. It is not showing up the ERR group in source table
    How do we bring the defined data rules and error table into mapping?
    Are there any additional steps/process?
    Any idea ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply/pointer. I reviewed the blog. It is interesting.
    What is the version of OWB used in this blog?
    After defining data rule/shadow table, I deployed the table via CC. It created a error table and created the all the source coulmns in alphabatical order. If I have the primary key as 1st coulmn (which does not start with 'A') in my source, it will apprear middle of of columns in error table.
    How do we prevent/workaround this?
    If I have source(view) in sch A, how do we create Error table in Sch B for source(view)?
    Is it feasible?
    I brought the error table details in mapping. Configured the data rules/error tables.
    If I picked up 'MOVE TO ERROR' option, I am getting "VLD-2802 Missing delete matching criteria in table. the condition is needed because the operator contain at least one data rule with a MOVE TO ERROR action"
    On condition Loading - I have 'All constraints' for matching criteria.
    I changed to "no constraints' still I get the above error.
    If I change to 'REPORT' option instead of 'MOVE TO ERROR' option, error goes off.
    Any idea?
    Thanks in advance.

  • TS4002 how can i use a deferent apple id for iCloud on my iPhone?

    how can i use a deferent apple id for iCloud on my iPhone?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you delete the existing account you will get an option to keep the iCloud data on your device.
    Before deleting the account, save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll.

  • How can I use my external hard drive for my iphoto instead of my mac book pro memory?

    i don't know if this question has been asked before: how can I use my external hard drive for my iphoto instead of my mac book pro memory? just like itunes all my song are save on my external hard drive. make sense?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

    Do you mean can you use one Apple ID for FaceTime and one for iMessage? You should be able to. Or, do you mean, can you log into iMessage (or FaceTime) with two Apple IDs at once? No.

    I need to clarify how I can use adobe as a host for my site for free. I see where business catalyst is supposed to be temporary as well as it is recommended to use as the better alternative to launch my muse site. But then I have to use the long extension of "businesscatalyst" in addition to the domain name I'd prefer. How exactly can I take it live? do I have to use a third party hosting?

    Hi,
    Once you are done with your sitet, Click on Publish in Muse, select New Site from the drop down, It will ask you a name for your site, which will be used for  site url, you will get a url like mysite.businesscatalyst.com, then go to the browser and login to the admin panel, mysite.businesscatalyst.com/admin and on Dashboard, click Launch site. This will push your site live, and you can then add your custom domain.
    Also make sure that you have completed all these actions mentioned here

    How I can use my galaxy II only for camera and  while I am traveling out of states without any extra charge?

    i think you can put the device in airplane mode then selectively turn on wifi...
    before you travel you could try this and check your cellular usage on the settings ! mobile data display. you might be able to turn mobile data / cellular radio off that way as well.

  • Multiple drag emails from Mail to a finder window and for it to name the files as the subject heading

    Hi
    I have been using Mac's now for about 10 years and this is my first problem.
    I have recently moved into an office that use PC's with a Windows server.
    I have set up the network to transfer files and view the windows server and it  works fine.
    I have a problem in that my colleagues on PC need to be able to view my emails which I send and receive using Mail. They therefore need to have logical title names and the date sent and ideally who to or from. I view them and archive them using Mail which is fine for me.
    I understand about the archiving and copying of mailboxes but this gives every email the un-fathomable title name 9944847 etc.
    I can get round the problem by dragging and dropping every email I send and receive individually and it will automatically give it a more logical title of the subject heading however the date is when it was dragged not when sent. This is a pain if I am away or forget to save an email for a day or two and then the date is inconsistent.
    Is there a way to batch copy emails from Mail to a finder window and for it to name the files as the subject heading or to archive the files in a similar way so they retain the detailed information my colleagues require.
    And no I can not get to all change to Mac and I don't really fancy using Outlook, Entourage or Parallels.
    Please help.
    Toby

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the text on the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. If you get a warning that the file is in use when you try to empty the Trash, log out and log back in.
