Keyword tag search across multiple folders?

In using windows XP aand Photoshop Elements 9. My photos are located in multiple folders and sub folders. I can tag photos in various folders, but when I use a tag to search for photos, i only get results for whatever folder is open in Organizer. I cannot get it to return photos in more than one folder. All the folders are "managed" and all are subfolders within the "Catalog." What am I not doing or not understanding?

oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I thought I was going crazy!

Keyword search across multiple folders

Is it possible to do keyword searches across multiple folders and drives in Bridge CS3? On disk I have organised my images by geographical location, but want to keyword them and search for them by theme. This will cut across several drives each with numerous folders and sub-folders. All the drives, folders and sub-folders are on the same pc, which is a stand alone machine and not networked.

With Bridge it will search multiple folders on the same drive, but don't think you can search across multiple drives (I read you can with Lightroom).
The search goes down the directory tree starting where you tell it. So therefore, start high enough to include all folders you want to look in.
If you have Vista you could search across multiple drives if they are indexed. Advanced search allows multiple keywords (tags), and it is very fast, much faster than Bridge.

Search across multiple folders in the Mail application...

Is it possible to search across multiple folders using the Mail application in Windows 10? I can't seem to find that option.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Mapper99,
If you mean the following search:
You may click on the search icon on the top of the message list, then it will show out like the picture above, you could choose to search in the current folder, or you may choose All folders as listed.
It is almost the same settings in Windows 8.1, you may follow this guide for the other options:

Filter on keyword across multiple "folders"

It is clear that I can filter for specified keyword within a "folder."
This does not provide much convenience, it seems to me. I want to locate images with a given keyword across a large number of "folders" including even my entire C: drive. I must be missing something, because there is little advantage if filtering for a specified keyword is limited to what you might see in the thumbnails on the Bridge screen.
I nearly always store my images by date, with the "folder" name being the date taken. I plan to use Bridge to assign multiple keywords to all my images stored on my computer, a tedious chore, but one that I can do a bit at one time; say one day's shooting per day until I eventually catch up with several years of shooting.
There must be some functionality that I am ignorant of which allows the user to filter on all, repeat all, images tagged, for example, "Sarah." I have tried searching the FAQs and have failed to find the answer. I have tried highlighting a couple of "folders" but the "filter" functionality is not available as far as I can tell. Please tell me what I must do to exploit the Filter functionality across multiple "folders."

I much appreciate the very useful information from Sergei Urlof, and I am using it. But I could use even more information, to speed up what I am trying to do. I want to know some efficient work flow procedures for using the keyword functionality.
I want to tag every appropriate image file that I have in storage with the name of the persons pictured. I see that when I open a folder in Bridge, and follow the File/File Info route, I can assign a keyword to the file, or more keywords if I use a comma. I see that the keywords I assign are shown on the bottom right side of screen. I see that if I open a different folder, the keywords are carried over, and I can locate/highlight other files with a particular person pictured, and can assign a keyword by clicking in the box by the keyword. This saves me the steps involved in File/File Info and typing in a keyword that is already in the list shown bottom right.
HOWEVER, as soon as I close that particular Bridge session, I lose that list, or at least so it seems to me. How do I recover the list of all keywords that I have assigned previously and make them available for clicking, for use with a folder newly opened? I can imagine using variations of names for a given person as keywords, and that would lead to poor filtering. That is, I do not see a keyword-name for an image of a certain person, so I type in a name in the File/File Info Keyword box. But it is a slight variant of one I have used before; e.g., Victoria instead of Vicki. I would not use a variant if the list of previously assigned keywords were displayed.
So, how do I bring up the previously assigned keywords, for use in a new Bridge session?

Search across multiple libraries

Does Version 1.0 permit searches across multiple Lightroom libraries?

I've been playing around with V1 this afternoon with respect to keywords and metadata. I've been working with jpg files and writing the metadata back to the file automatically via the preference setting. When I run a spotlight search none of the new metadata shows up. I have confirmed that the keywords and metadata are present in the jpg file by using Bridge. If I then add a keyword using Bridge all of the keywords that I had attached in Lightroom are visible to finder and spotlight searches.
Any idea what's up with this?

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and...

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and then select them all and change the permissions on just those folders .i.e. Search for the budget folders in all client folders and lock them down to just the project managers. Without having to go to each folder and apply the permissions.

Searching across multiple entity beans

Hi,
Currently we are doing a school project that involve a search function that involves multiple entity beans. Is it alright to use a SQL query to do a search across multiple entity bean? Does it violate the J2EE Specification?
Is there any other way to do that?
And also can the Session Bean access database directly ?
Thanks and Regards,
Eng Chew

Never try that myself, but I think it would work.
Because in your dd, you'll create 2 entry for each
entity bean.
For example:    <entity>
      <description>This is entity b</description>
      <ejb-name>entityA</ejb-name>
      <home>company.EntityHome</home>
      <remote>company.Entity</remote>
      <ejb-class>company.EntityA</ejb-class>
      ... etc ...
    </entity>
    <entity>
      <description>This is entity b</description>
      <ejb-name>entityB</ejb-name>
      <home>company.EntityHome</home>
      <remote>company.Entity</remote>
      <ejb-class>company.EntityB</ejb-class>
      ... etc ...
    </entity>

Does a Flash library symbol search extension exist that can search across multiple files?

Hi, I'm working on a large animation project with an extensive symbol library that exists across multiple files. I would like to know if such a tool exists that can search between all of these files for specific symbols. This would save me a great deal of time and I would be very grateful for any suggestions. We are using Flash CS5 primarily. Thanks.

Thanks! I appriciate you confirming this for me

Searching Across Multiple PDF Documents

My purchase of an iPad hinges on this feature: is it now possible, or will it be possible in the near future to search for specific text across multiple stored pdf documents within Adobe Reader on iOS?

I have no solution, but a thought: the database factor may seem to be
a killer. But you could look for a solution designed to read PDF files
from a web site (by spidering or from a list), which would presumably
load them.
Or could do a one off extraction of the files from the database into a
directory and use that for your process. Probably a very good idea,
since extracting all files from the database is likely to be costly
and hammer the server (but can be scheduled at a sensible pace), while
the search process will (if it is possible at all) doubtless need to
be run countless times.

Searching across multiple forms

I was wondering is it possible to search for responses across multiple forms? We are currently testing out the free version of FormsCentral, and was not for sure if this is a feature in the paid version.

Sorry we don't currently support this.

Application object content search across multiple (many) objects

Hi guys,
I have about 500 application objects and one of these is pushing through
a bad registry setting.
I know what the setting is, but how do I search across all of them quickly.
Thank you,

The easiest thing to do is to search c:NALCACHE for the string desired.
I don't have ZEN at my current location so I can't be 100% sure, but I
believe much of the info in these cache files is stored in pseudo
english so a search may work.
The info is stored in DS in a manner that is less easily retrievable.
(I.E., Pull up DSReports and browse the object, you will not see all of
the entries.)
As I am thinking, at my last job I ran a nightly routine that exported
all apps to AOTs using the ZFD3 toolkit and than ran another tool from
the kit to convert the AOTs to AXTs. Then I could do an easy file find
on all of my apps. The list of apps was generated using a tool from
JRBSoftware. I don't have the script anymore, but is you are skilled at
scripting, that may give you an idea for something that my become a
multi-purpose tool for you.

CV04N-Searching across multiple classes that have the same characteristics

In CV04N- is there a way to search across mutliple classes that have the same characteristics?
For example I created 3 new class types each assinged to a new class, each class having the same characteristics.
Say if I have a characterisitics called Contract Name. I need to be able to search for a contract name across all 3 classes.
The search results in CV04N defaults to class type 017 so it only shows characterisitcs relate to that type, Is there a way to get the characteristics for the new created class types to show?
I know in CV04N you can only search one class type and class at a time.
Does anyone know of a way to fulfill these requirements, without creating a customized report?

Hi Jenny,
The answer for this question is that:
1. The class 017 document management in cv 04n is SAP standard class .It's totally different than the new class created by you.
2. The new class in CL02 you are creating is for a perticular document type. When you assign a characteristic (contract name) to this new class ,it appears in additional data field as contract name.
3. Now you can make a search with only Contract name filed and the report will be displayed with all document types having this characteristic (Contract name) is assigned. Thus you can find the classes(document types)thru characteristic(contract name).
I hope this will resolve the query. And you will get clarified between two classes( i.e. 017 and new classes in DMS).You can say them as subclassed under 017 class.

Ravindra

Keyword search in multiple folders

May be a stupid question.....
We want to have all of our photos stored on one server and then access them remotely and be able to do a keyword search to locate them later.
We did a test with several folders but when we do a keyword search we have to be in the subfolder for Bridge to recognize the keyword.
Example:
Main Folder - Photos
Sub Folder - Dan
Sub Folder - Sara
We put Dan as a keyword on all his photos and Sara on all of hers
Then on the main folder do a keyword search for Dan and nothing comes up. Go into his subfolder and it works.
We could just have one big folder with all of images loose in there, but that's not the best solution with multiple people putting images in there
What am I doing wrong.
Thanks for any insight.

You should use the find command (cmd F) for this. Select keyword as criteria and be sure to check the option 'include subfolders'.
You need to cache the folders first tlo get the most out of the speed for finding and the folders should all be in one main folder like pictures or so.
Also be aware that Bridge on a server is not always a success and keep in mind that you are in fact looking for a Digital Asset Management system and DAM is not the best feature Bridge has to offer

Substituting a set of AD groups in NTFS permissions for another across multiple folders

Okay, here's a good one.
On a file server at one of our branch offices we have a set of folders that have permissions set for a particular set of groups in AD. For the purposes of this question the name of that office is "Sparta."
We are setting up another branch office that is going to have that same set of folders. We'll call that office "Athens." It has its own set of AD groups. So for example, if Sparta has a group called 'Sparta Admin,' then Athens has an analogous
group called 'Athens Admin.' The only difference in the name of the group is that it has the name of the branch office attached to it.
The permissions get rather complex, with multiple sets applied to the same group to get the desired effect. Whenever a new branch office goes up (which is often), they get a server with this same set of folders, with the same set of permissions applied to
groups that contain the branch office name as a prefix.
I hope that makes sense so far.
So my question is, since it takes quite a while to go through each permission one by one and change the name of the group, for example from 'Sparta Admin' to 'Athens Admin,' can anyone help me come up with a script or something similar I can run that would
simply ask for the name of the branch office and automatically change the names accordingly, or even create the needed groups with the Branch Office's name if they don't already exist?
Thanks in advance for any help, and please let me know if this is incredibly confusing and I need to be more clear.

Hi Stephen,
Based on your description, I am not sure that we can achieve what we want, but for script, in order to get better help, it's recommended that we ask advice in the following scripting forum.

Read out loud isn't following tag structure across multiple pages

I have an InDesign CC document where the main story falls across several pages. It wraps around a standalone sidebar that fits one page, as well as another sidebar that also jumps to other pages. I set up the element order in the Articles palette, and it looks like the structure is set to read the main story first in its entirety, then move on through the sidebars, each in its entirety.
In Acrobat CC, I set the tab order to use the document structure within Page Thumbnails, and took the other required steps. The accessibility check comes up clean.
However, Read Out Loud reads everything on one page, then moves to the next page. It ignores the InDesign structure. The Acrobat tags window also shows my desired reading order, but it's not being followed.
Is there something else I need to do, or is this reading order just not possible?

Assistive Technology (AT) uses the PDF's structure tree. Without a well-formed structure tree AT will "see" a PDF as a lump of coal.
What's that got to do with ROL? ROL is *not* AT. ROL is a nice but simple text to speech feature. ROL parses PDF page content left to right top down for western languages. The PDF does not have to be a tagged PDF for ROL to parse the PDF page content (I've been using it to do that snce Acrobat 8 Pro). In sum - Acrobat / Reader ROL only processes through what is renderable text on the PDF page. PDF elements (tags) exist separately from both the logical structure of a PDF and the PDF's page content (discussed in ISO 32000-1, see 14.8).
So, nothing wrong or broken. ROL is doing what it was designed to do.
Try NVDA if you want to parse the structure tree and have the associated content "spoken" to you. I suspect you'll be pleased.
Be well...
