ICal search can't find anything in Mountain Lion

In iCal 6.0 on OS 10.8.1, nothing is searchable. No matter what word I type in for a search, it shows no results. Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Colleen

    After installed win7 on my mac pro(mid 2012/mountain lion), I can not connect internet and where can i find drivers in mountain lion system.
    I donot think I have a install disk when I bought my mac, there is only a disc partition for recovery system.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You have to install Boot Camp drivers. On Mountain Lion, you have to download them.
    First, press X key while your Mac is starting to start into OS X. Then, open Boot Camp Assistant and select the option to download the drivers. You will have to burn them into a DVD or USB drive, so after downloading them, restart and install them into Windows

  • Windows 8.1 Pro, Type recovery and Search can't find anything

    System is installed in a classroom with the latest updates. One of the lessons had the students type
    recovery on the Tiles page and it should return 5 results (the other 10 systems in the room returned the correct results). This system couldn't find anything so I got called to troubleshoot.
    I first compared locations being searched in Indexing Options
    to the system right next to this system. They were identical. Next, I went into
    Advanced and chose the Delete and Rebuild Index option. Weirdly, while the indexing was going on, I did a search for
    recovery and it found some entries. I didn't think to compare the results to the other system, I just assumed I had resolved the problem. No luck, after the indexing was complete, I typed in
    recovery and no results were found!
    Since another option under Advanced is to choose a new location for the
    Index File. I figured it couldn't hurt although I didn't think it would help either. I decided to more the
    index file to the root directory on the C: drive. That didn't work, the system just ignored the change. Each system is this classroom has two
    BACKUP partitions on the external drive attached to each system. We use
    System Images so that's why two BACKUP partitions, allows us to always have at least one backup in case something happens. I next tried relocating the
    Index File to the second BACKUP partition (H:). Surprisingly, that fixed the problem. My question is: WHY!!!

    Hi,
    According to your description,it seems that the permission caused this issue.
    I suggest that you try using build-in administrator to test it.
    Also,check the Write permission on the C:drive.

  • Can't find my downloaded Mountain Lion App in my app store purchases?

    I recently finished downloading the Mountain Lion software, but in trying to install it said that the file was corruppted while downloading (which I assume because of spotty internet connection I have.)  It said to delete thie app and re-download for free...cuz you can re-download all apps you've purchased for free.  But in my Purchases section of the App store, I accidentally deleted the app, instead of on my computer (which I assume I was supposed to delete now that I can't get the app store back.)  Help?  Where do I find it?  I have a recipet of purchase to prove I bought it too :/

  • HT4718 Can't find iLife after Mountain Lion download?

    After my mountain lion download (done by a genius at the apple store so I know I didn't mess it up!), ilife isn't here. It's also not under the "purchase" section of the app store like support.apple.com says it should be. help?

    New Macs come with iLife. However, if you did a clean install you're not going to have iLife.
    However, the original install disk that came with your Mac should have an iLife installer included.

  • ICal search doesn't find anything

    when I test this by creating a future event with a particular word in it, then return to today and search for that word in the little "search" box at top right, it doesn't find that word.
    Why not?

    I have also had long standing problems of not being able to search for calendar events, either from within iCal or Spotlight or using mdfind.
    None of the suggested solutions worked for me (removing Calendar Cache file, adding and removing folders or drives to the privacy section of Spotlight to re-index, or running mdimport ~/Library/Calendars.
    One clue was that mdimport -d2 ~/Library/Calendars would not even look at the individual .ics files within any .calendar/Events directory (no output). I suspected that this was due to LaunchServices not associating these files properly with iCal. My system had previously been upgraded all the way from 10.0 through 10.6.
    What finally worked for me was the following, using the Terminal, rebuilding completely the LaunchServices database:
    rm /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices*.csstore
    *defaults delete com.apple.LaunchServices*
    *sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServi ces.framework/Support/lsregister -kill*
    *sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServi ces.framework/Support/lsregister -R -domain local -domain system -domain user*
    (note the capital -R in the previous line.)
    This step will take a few minutes to complete, with a message about I/O throttleing
    reboot (not sure if that is necessary)
    *mdimport -d2 ~/Library/Calendars*
    This last command should now show the successful indexing of all calendar events.
    After this search finally worked again for me!

    Heiko

  • Since updating to 3.6.1 I don't get an empty browser window in my tool bar whe. it opens --- just a list of search engines. I can't find anything in "Help" or the FAQ's that seem to address this. My only choice seems to go back to Safari.

    I am not sure what your problem is, can you give more details.
    One possibility is you may be in full screen mode, for details on fixing that see the [[menu bar is missing]] article.
    If you are missing various toolbar items, see the [[back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] article.
    If your problem is something else please give more details.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Some are reporting that logging out and back into your account again will resolve this. However if your problem persists:
    Select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
    Currently, if your purchase happens to be your most recent purchase you will need to click the large ‘Report A Problem’ button under the list of previous purchases in order to reveal the ‘Report A Problem’ link for your recent purchase. If your purchase is listed as a previous purchase use the small arrow on the left side of its listing.
    Alternatively you can use the receipt email to report a problem.

  • My macbook pro has 750gb storage but it says it is full with 550gb being "Other" and I can't find anything it could be. There's no way I have this much on my computer. How can I find it?

    I've searched the entire computer for what could be 550gb and I can't find anything. I have about 120gb of music, 30gb pictures, 22gb applications, 8gb video, and the documents on my computer can't be more than 10gb. How can I find out what is taking up all this space, it doesn't seem possible?

    Download Omni Disk sweeper and use it to identify what's what on your Mac.

  • I upgraded my Iphone, but now I can't connect it to itunes because it is not upgraded. However, when I want to upgraded, it says that my computer (imac)  needs to be upgraded to another version. I can't find anything to help me out.

    I upgraded my Iphone to IOS6, but now I can't connect it to itunes (10.6.3) because it is not upgraded. However, when I want to upgraded, it says that my computer (imac Mac OS 10.5.8)  needs to be upgraded to another version. I can't find anything to help me out.

    You need iTunes 10.7 or later.
    To get this, you need Mac OS 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6 Snow Leopard here -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

  • I have an iMac running OX 10.5.8 I need a portable external harddrive to back it up before updating the software to Yosemite but I can't find anything that doesn't require you to be running at least OX 10.6.  Is there a suitable hard drive?

    I have an iMac running OX 10.5.8
    I need a portable external hard drive to back it up before updating the software to Yosemite but I can't find anything that doesn't require you to be running at least OX 10.6.  Is there a suitable hard drive?  I'm not very technical and wouldn't know how to do any formatting so I want it to be very basic so that I can just plug it in.  500GB should be more than adequate.

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store

  • I want to transfer an audiobook and a movie from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone 4S, and can't figure out how.  I went to "Help" and it said after connecting the two devices I should "Click Apps," but I can't find anything labeled "Apps" to click.  Help?!!

    If you have iTunes 11 on your Mac then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S, that might make it easier to navigate.
    Connect the phone to your Mac and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of the screen there should be a series of tabs which you can use to select what to sync to the phone. If it's an audiobook then it should appear on the Books tab for selecting/syncing, and films will be on the Movies tab. When you've got the audiobook on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app (you might need to tap the '...' tab at the bottom of the Music app to see it).
