NEED TO SEARCH BY COMPANY, NOT JUST BY NAME

I would love to use my apple software for contact management but you cant search the database by company, only name. For those of us with huge business databases this is entirely impractical. I am forced to use microsoft products rather than apple products for this reason. Hey Apple, give me this one littel concession so I can boot Microsoft completely!

First, which application are you talking about? (This is the mail & Address Book forum.)
Second, this is a user-to-user forum -- any Apple involvement is generally limited to moderating forum messages. Send feedback to Apple using the link available from the main Tiger support page: Apple - Support - Discussions - Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger.
Third, AFAIK both Mail & Address Book can be searched on any content, including company name. Spotlight can also search you entire hard drive for the same, with a few exceptions. So, it is hard to know what you mean by your comments.
Care to elaborate?

My Search Window is not remembering any names that I type in. How can I fix it so the search window will remember what I type in.

My Search Window does not remember any names that I type in. What can I do to bring it back like it was?

This just started happening less than a week ago. Before that, everything was fine. I do not know what happened to cause this. What is a "build-in about home page?" I really do not know about all this technical stuff. Is the location bar the same as my search window.....in the middle of the page.....that I use to type things in? I never type ANYTHING in the top of the screen bar that is located on the same line as the "back" and "forward" button. What do I do now?

How to search any text (not just CSS selector) in Inspector (in Developer Tools)?

I want to search any text in the inspector, like Chrome Developer Tools does. How can I do this?

This is not likely to be possible in the general case, depending on what you mean by "searching text"
For instance, a Word doc might have the text "Hello, world!" when viewed in Word, but that doesn't mean that the sequence of characters 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', etc., exists in the file. There might be one letter, then some binary data indicating that the next letter is some other font or color, then one more letter, then more binary data, etc.
Conversely, there could be textual metadata in a "binary" file that a person reading the file in the appropriate viewer would never see. Unless you know the details of the format you're reading, you won't be able to distinguish that from "real text".
And what do you mean "strings" is not efficient? Have you tried it? Does it do what you want? Did you measure and determine that it does not meet your well-defined performance requirements? It's unlikely you'll be able to write code that does the same thing as "strings" but more "efficiently."
The first step is to put more realistic boundaries on your requirements and define them more precisely. "Extract text from any binary file," is not a valid, meaningful, or reasonable requirement.
EDIT: I may have misunderstood your requirements. I thought you wanted to "extract all text" from binary files. If that's not what you meant, and you're looking more to replicate grep, then follow Joachim's advice.

Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Log in if not already logged in.
Click on "Edit Products"
Click on the "X" to the right of the product.
Click "Unregister".
If that doesn't work, you're going to need to call AppleCare and have them remove your phone from the system.
Best of luck.

My Photoshop CS 5 has some strange actions when I copy a portion of a photo using the clone stamp to transfer to another part of the image. It carries the entire layer (not just the stamps selection) across the screen and I cannot place it where I need to. It appears as if I selected the entire layer on purpose (which I did not)
The below items appeared when I opened Photoshop CS 5:
“Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled G & U enhancements. Check the video card malfunctions website for latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.”
(I believe this started after the automatically updated Windows was applied. It was coincident with the before mentioned problem . . . but I don’t really know if it had anything to do with it. )

For the Clone Stamp problem, check the Clone Source panel and Clipped is probably unchecked.
If so, check Clipped and see if that makes a difference.
(Window>Clone Source)
As to the video card problem:
Which version of windows are you using?
What is the make and model of your graphics card?
Do you know which update windows installed?

As long as you don't need all the bells and whistles of the iTunes Store such as Ping, and don't need to sync an iOS device running iOS 4.x, then iTunes 9.2.1 should work for you. It should be available via Software Update, but if not, you can still get it here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
but it would be best to upgrade your Mac to Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6, since it's probable that eventually the iTunes Store will no longer support iTunes 9.x.
Regards.
P.S. Mac OS X 10.4 was discontinued three and a half years ago, so yes, it's getting rather long in the tooth. Cheers.

I need to plot the Least Squares Regression Line (not just calculate it with the LINEST function). How?

I need to plot the Least Squares Regression Line (not just calculate its values with the LINEST function). Can anyone advise me on how to graph this line?

Grapher.app in OS X Utilities is excellent for that : entering data from Numbers Excel etc. into a Grapher "Point Set", plotting all your data, computing and plotting a regression curve linear or exponential or polynomial.
Unfortunately there is not a single word about point sets and regression in the Grapher Help.
So, suggest you download (free) "Instruction for Use - Grapher on web site
http://y.barois.free.fr/grapher/Documentation.html
and go to page 31 to 37, "Initiation > Lesson 6 : Treating a point set (Regression curve), and also page 68, "Appendix 1. Points sets : from speadsheets to Grapher".
If you try Grapher's regression curves, please tell us about the manual above : useful or not, too easy or difficult, readable or not etc.
Thank you.

PS. Documentation about Grapher is also here : Google "Apple Grapher" > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grapher > Article > Talk > Grapher 1.1 to 2.3 (French and English) (11th september 2012)

[SOLVED] search just package name (not description) with yaourt

Is there a way to search just package names (not package descriptions) with yaourt or pacman? I'm imagining something like this:
$ yaourt -Ss --pkgname-only xterm
Thanks!

My question still stands as to how I can search just package names. If it is using another program other than yaourt or pacman, that is okay.
"yaourt -Ss SEARCH_STRING" has been working as stated in the documentation for me (with yaourt-0.9.2.6). It will return all packages that have SEARCH_STRING in either the package name or package description.
Here are the first three results when running this command:
$ yaourt -Ss emacs
extra/emacs 23.1-3 [installed]
The Emacs Editor
extra/snd 10.1-1
Snd is the emacs of sound editor
extra/texmacs 1.0.7-3
GNU TeXmacs is a free scientific text editor, which was both inspired by TeX
and GNU Emacs. WYSIWYG editor TeX-fonts and CAS-interface (Giac, GTybalt,
Macaulay 2, Maxima, Octave, Pari, Qcl, R and Yacas) in one.
$
It looks like it works as specified in the man pages:
-s, --search <'regexp'>
This will search each package in the sync databases for names or descriptions that match regexp.
When you include multiple search terms, only packages with descriptions matching ALL of those terms will be returned.
