Metadata Server says content indexing is disabled, how to enable?
My Spotlight has been hobbled for some time... I just downloaded and ran Spotless 2, and it says:
The Metadata Server is reporting that content indexing is DISABLED for the volume Macintosh HD but the volume itself is reporting that the content indexing status is set to ENABLED.
Spotless tried to enable indexing, but could not.
Spotlight finds some things, but not everything... mds ran after I tried adding my drive to the Privacy settings and then removing it... and mdiutil says Indexing disabled no matter what:
$ sudo mdutil -i on /
Indexing disabled.
What should I do?

"Search In Google" in the content menu was disabled, how to enable it?
I can see it, but i can't use it, because it was disabled, how to enable it?
Thank you!No can do, kemosabe. The password would be a pretty worthless security measure if it were that easy to remove or change while maintaining the integrity of the phone's data.
If you're OK with completely wiping the phone, you can do this:

If you want to keep the data on the phone, you're going to have to wait until you get back home to your own computer. -

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm. -
Exchange Server 2013 Content Index is in "Unknown" state.
Hi Experts,
We have two Exchange Server 2013 CU3 installed in our customer premises 6 months back on top of Windows Server 2012 OS.
From last week, we are getting the content index status as "Unknown" while checking the "Get-Mailboxdatabasecopystatus".
We have tried to reseed the database by using "update-mailboxdatabasecopy -identity <db> -deleteexistingfiles then we came to know the server is not responding on port 3863.
Attached image is for your reference.
Need support from experts to resolve at the earliest.

I had the same issue and was able to solved by recreate the search index component on the mailbox servers
Recreate the Search Foundation from scratch
Stop and disable the search services and rename the Data Folder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Bin\Search\Ceres\HostController\Data"
Open power shell and navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Bin\Search\Ceres\Installer
Run the command : .\installconfig.ps1 -action I -dataFolder "c:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Bin\Search\Ceres\HostController\Data"
Output should be like
[PS] C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Bin\Search\Ceres\Installer>.\installconfig.ps1 -action I -dataFolder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Bin\Search\Ceres\HostController\Data"
Configuring Search Foundation for Exchange....
Successfully configured Search Foundation for Exchange
Rename the Index files for the database that are active on the node .
Start the Search Services
Removed a configuration entry that refers to the ContentSubmitters group. This entry is present in four XML files. Each file is called WcfConfigurator.
you can find each file in the following folder:
%ExchangeInstallPath%\Bin\Search\Ceres\HostController\Data\Nodes\Fsis\NODENAME\Configuration\Local
Here, “%ExchangeInstallPath%” is the Exchange installation root path, and the placeholder NODENAME represents one of the following names. (There is one name for each of the four files that are to be edited.)
AdminNode1
ContentEngineNode1
IndexNode1
InteractionEngineNode1
These are text files. You can use Notepad or any other convenient plain text editor to change them. Make sure that you make only the change that is described here.
Each file contains at most one line that contains the following: <AuthorizedRole>ContentSubmitters</AuthorizedRole>
Remove this line, and then save the file. Repeat this operation for each of the four files, and then restart the Microsoft Exchange Search Host Controller service.
Found the Index files in Crawling state as expected instead of Unknown.
Once all the Active copies are healthy and still the copies in failed and suspended state, then you can reseed the catalog files only using the below command
Update-MailboxDatabaseCopy -Identity BD\MBserver –CatalogOnly
Good Luck..

Thanks guys.Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

To restore from backup see:

If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

i dint use my ipod for bout 4 months n now i forgot my password i tried n now it is disabled n i still cnt recall it plzz help!! plzz!!
Do you mean the passcode on-screen to access the iPod touch? If so,you will need to restore from the computer you last sync'd the device with - see this doc - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If you mean the encrypted backup password, see this doc - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766, the important part of which is (applies just as much to an iPod Touch as the iPhone):
"Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password you can continue to do backups and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync." -
We have an Exchange database that seems to always have a Content Index State that is crawling. Some end users have complained about slow searches and indexing issues (which is expected). We have
stopped the search services and renamed the catalog directory in an effort to rebuild the search catalog, but it just goes right back to crawling. The database is only about 300GB, so I don't think size is an issue.
Could it be there is some corruption on the database that is causing issues with the index catalog. We have removed the database from the DAG and tried it as a stand alone database, with the same
results.
Any ideas would be appreciated.did you find anything in the event viewer (app/Sys logs).
You may consider restarting Search Indexer service and then check if that gets healthy or not.
If it still doesn't say healthy then you might have to consider Resetting Search Index for problematic Database or all database if all if it is a problem with all databases.
Refer to the link below to get info about how to reset Search index for a database.
