Saved Search: Edit Searches

Correct me if I'm wrong but where is the ability to edit the saved searches in 10.5? I don't want to keep recreating the search just want to edit the already saved search like in 10.4.
Thank.

Unless I've missed something, you can only get the "Show Search Criteria" if the saved search is placed in/appears in your sidebar. If you select the saved search in the Finder, (default location is ~/Library/Saved Searches ), you can't edit the search criteria. Seems like a puzzling oversight if you ask me.

low level Hex disk edit & search util needed- suggestions please?
Maybe It's just late & I've had a bad day.... but I haven't needed a low level Hex disk edit & search utility suitable for an Intel 10.4.x Mac until now and can't seem to locate one.

Any suggestions please?

Such a high-esteem for fellow human beings - and
programmers...
You know, there are some good decent nice people
behind those names?
You'd be amazed at how much testing goes into a product.
[SNIP]
g'day Hatter...
Yes, I know there are some good decent nice people behind those names..fellow human beings - and fellow programmers (so yes, I do know...) In previous incarnations I have 'thunk up' and developed, Marketed & supported considerably more complex Apps & systems myself - I even know some of the people you mention personally - and they are usually decent Blokes/women but normally, it isn't the programmers who make the decisions on pricing/features/support/performance/upgrade costs & cycles etc...
My only error was, I agree, the phrase 'without exception' - but (mainly) only because I haven't bought/tested & used all of them very very recently. So I offer my apologies to those to whom my remarks should not apply (long, late night/early morning frustration...)
However, I also offer a few simple pertinent examples:
One 'top name' Utility company had a 'save your Mac HD' product on the market for some time that was almost guaranteed to TRASH it irretrievably but did NOT say so - nor did they help or compensate those they harmed.
Several are selling what amount to simple, pretty, GUI shells for 'free' or OS-included command line tools - no more, no less but do NOT say so and are asking good money for the 'software'.
Many are asking ridiculous prices for "regular upgrades" so you can keep their tool current with your Mac OS - one wants US$100/year for it, another, $15 per u/g, others, US$25 or $40 per u/g; one asks 'only' $10 - and these 'upgrades' are happening 3,4,5,6 times per year and are necessary for the Marketing company to keep their product Saleable to new purchasers and new Macs (as well as for important Bug Fixes - and only co-incidentally to keep it performing with your current Mac and OS - which is what you paid them for in the first place).
I won't pay for a product 3, 6 or 9 times and I won't advise my clients to: It's not unreasonable for a person to expect a 'sensible lifetime/currency' of Product X for Computer Y - say 3 years (e.g. AppleCare). I wouldn't object to paying for an "upgrade" at that point - IF it's worth the money.
Software is Waaay too expensive in many cases and is simply inviting 'piracy' - from people who have already PAID for the product: sadly, they are killing their own Gooses.
Seriously, one product costs ca. US$100 to Buy in the first place
To keep it actually working for you costs about the same again Per Year - a 3 year 'sensible lifetime' or 'currency' cost of US$300 or $400! [That'll buy a lot of 'bare drives' to put in a handy Firewire case for automatic backups in Background, differential backups etc. and other simple practices which render this product type largely unnecessary ].
For what? A relatively simple set of utilities which would actually cost the company involved less than $5 total each - over 3 years - to make available to existing ( or 'current') owners. [Applecare 'complete' Hardware and Software warranty & support on a US$2000 iMac - which includes Tech Tools Pro Deluxe or somesuch costs about US$165 for 3 years. Total.]
Having designed, developed, Marketed, supported & maintained more complex Applications to/for a sizeable user-base (in US terms) over multiple complete Series of Product 'life-cycles' - regular Updates and all, I think I know where the pirates are.
These practices have been rampant in the MSWindows™ market for a longtime. It's a real shame to see it in the Mac world.
I have all the esteem in the world for those fellow human beings who deserve such - and programmers who are 'good decent nice people'.
I have none to spare for monopolists, 'exploitationists' or any of those who take unfair/unreasonable advantage of their fellow human beings - AND of programmers who are 'good decent nice people' (like, say, ME... .
In any event, as I said: they are "killing their Gooses": I know of at least 6 software companies which went this route a while back. All are dead or dying.
Thank you for your help - and the opportunity to apologise for 'mis-speaking'.
all the best,

Adobe Bridge saving my edited files in an 'unknown format' - Losing my work

When I edit an image in Photoshop through Adobe Bridge and save it as a jpeg, it is not saving as selected. Instead, it is saving the edited image in an 'unknown' and unusable format. I loose my editing work. I discovered this doesn't happen if I save the image in a new folder but I would still like to fix this problem; I've been editing for two years without this issue. Has anyone else experienced this problem or know how to fix it?

Adobe Bridge does not "save", open or edit anything other than the metadata. The files are saved by whatever application hands them to them, whether that be Photoshop, Camera Raw, Illustrator, MS Word or whatever.
If files are being lost in just one folder, you have corruption in that particular folder. The first step is to go to the Tools menu in Bridge, and run the "Purge Cache for Folder 'xxxxyyy'" command. The next step is to create a brand new folder, not inside the corrupted one, and move all your files there.
You should also run Apple's Disk Utility to Repair the Disk and to Repair Permissions for your disk.
Next time, please provide details about your setup.

When looking at my "About This Mac" it says that I have 60gb of space left on my hard drive, but when I go into finder to find all of these files there is not 300gb worth in anything I search, even searching, "All files on the Mac". Help!?

It says I have over 150 gigs of video on my hard drive. But I have gone through and deleted almost all of what shows up, still it says there is roughly the same amount on the hard drive. Where are these files? I want to delete them so I can have my hard drive clear.
Thanks for your help guys!

Quote from the article.
Time Machine in OS X Lion includes a new feature called "local snapshots" that keeps copies of files you create, modify or delete on your internal disk. Local snapshots compliment regular Time Machine backups (that are stored on your external disk or Time Capsule) giving you a "safety net" for times when you might be away from your external backup disk or Time Capsule and accidentally delete a file.
So what makes a notebook any different then a desktop, other then with a desktop you might have your tm backup drive connected all the time.
The object here is to not indiscriminately delete files you need or want to keep. I personally have never deleted a file I wanted to keep.
In essence a backup is for catastrophic failure of your system. So it can be restored once that failure has been fixed. Not because you go in willy nilly and start deleting files.

ATG 10.1.2, Endeca guided search: Implementing search field

My team is working on implementing an application with ATG Commerce 10.1.2 and Endeca Guided Search 3.1.1, but no Endeca Experience Manager.
We understand that in a keyword search HTTP request that gets sent from ATG to Endeca, the following URI parameters must be present:
Ntt = Search keywords
Ntx = Match mode
Ntk = The search interface
Is there an ATG OOTB (out-of-the-box) component or mechanism for generating keyword search requests to Endeca guided search?
Or do we need to build the URI for the request from ATG to Endeca guided search with custom code?
Thanks!
-Jon

If you would have been using the experience manager then you could have created/used cartidge for search box and inserted in your pages as below to show search textbox. here (/content/Shared/Global Search Configuration/Search Box) is path where Search Box cartidge is located in experience manager (you can refer CRS10.1.2 for it)
<dsp:droplet name="InvokeAssembler">
<dsp:param name="contentCollection"
value="/content/Shared/Global Search Configuration/Search Box"/>
<dsp:oparam name="output">
<dsp:getvalueof var="searchBox"
vartype="com.endeca.infront.assembler.ContentItem"
param="contentItem" />
<dsp:renderContentItem contentItem="${searchBox}" />
</dsp:oparam>
</dsp:droplet>
but now since you are not using the experience manager and cartidges you would need to have something below like code to show text search box to query endeca
<dsp:page>
<dsp:importbean bean="/OriginatingRequest" var="originatingRequest"/>
<dsp:importbean bean="/atg/multisite/Site" var="currentSite"/>
<dsp:importbean bean="/atg/endeca/assembler/SearchFormHandler"/>

Once again, my thanks for your assistance. If I may impose on your generosity one more time, if I understand you correctly if I create a document on Word or WordPerfect, print it and scan it to create a pdf, the search function will not work. But, if I create the pdf document in Word the search function will work. Unfortunately, I am not sure how I create a pdf document in Word other than by printing it and scanning it.

Iphoto 11 Not saving photo edits

Iphoto Version 9.4.3
OSX 10.7.5, Build 11G63, Serial # W872101JVUX
3 GB SDRAM
Have had many problems since switching to Iphoto 11, this is just the latest. This week I added 5 Jpeg photo's to a library and edited them. When I finished I returned to the library and noticed they didn't look as good as they had while editing them. I returned to editing in the info section and indeed it looked like most of the editing had not been saved. I then moved to the editing section and the photo's still looked bad but after 5 -10 seconds the edits reappeared and the photo's looked as good as I expected. I then returned to the library (saving the edits) and again they look bad. These photo's were scanned to a desktop folder then imported to an iphoto library from there as is my normal procedure. I have used all the "Rebuild Library" choices which did not help. I do not ever make any changes to the libraries except through Iphoto.
I would like to concentrate on this problem now of course, but just for your information the other main problem I have fairly often is very slow editing with spinning balls. This is usually made acceptable by spending a lot of time "Rebuilding Library". I thought about reinstalling Iphoto but 9.4.3 is no longer available through the app store where I purchased it and my computer cannot upgrade any further.
I'm almost hoping that you tell me my computer isn't adequate and this will solve my problems as at least I can stop fighting with Iphoto. I will also say that otherwise the computer works fine and I have no problems with other programs.
Thanks for any help in advance

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Finder Search -- complex search in a particular folder

This is embarrassing!
I want to use Finder
     File-->Find
to do complex searches (e.g. using "Kind", "Created Date", "Contents", etc.) on a specific folder. I want to use the Finder "Find" GUI, not the Spotlight "command line".
I think I need to discover how to add additional places, folders, to the search location header of the Finder Search window, which now contains (by default?)
     Search:   This Mac    "My HD"
In other words, if my target folder is called "Fum" I think I need to see
     Search:   This Mac    "My HD"   "Fum"
Then I need to select the right-most item to tell the Finder Search "just search the folder named 'Fum'". After that, I enter the search parameters.
But I cannot figure out how to do this.    I tried drag-and-dropping folder "Fum" on this line. I tried Command-F with "Fum" selected. I tried enabling the left tool-bar, getting "Fum" in the list, then highlighting "Fum".
D'oh!   It's such a stupid question that ... the obvious web searches are useless.
So... how is this done?
I feel like I'm totally missing some basic assumpation of the current 10.7 Finder search metaphor. Please feel free to fill me in.   (Why isn't there a "+" button at the far right of the Search locations header, instead of what I see now, only a "Save" and a "-" button? That would seem the logical way to add locations to search.)
TIA

Whew, sorry...
[A tedious description of various experiments, failing attempts to sort this problem omitted here.]
I note that Finder Preferences ---> Advanced offers 3 choices for searches, schematically:
     When performing a search:
      (1) Search This Mac
      (2) Search the Current Folder
      (3) Use the Previous Search Scope
[Another tedious description of more experiments omitted here.]
Just a moment... Selecting alternative (3) does the trick for me!   I can now restrict the search directory to "Fum". I just need to:
a) Choose Finder search preference (3), which to my mind implements "Search the Current Folder" and NOT "Use the Previous Search Scope".
b) Interpret "Current Folder" as the folder open and at front.
Life is now good!   <heavy sigh>

Saving RAW edits as JPEG - is it okay if...?

Just wanted to get some expert opinion on whether saving RAW edits as JPEG is advisable.
I understand that every time you save a JPEG, there is some loss/degradation, whereas TIFF is loss less. However, given the huge size of TIFF tiles, my thinking is that saving them as JPEG is okay as long as if I want to make subsequent edits, I revert to the original (RAW) and re-do the edits.
Is there any downside to this logic?

iPhoto does not keep resaving the same JPG over and over. Instead it applies the new edits to the original file and recreates a new JPG. So no matter how many times you edit the file, you are only one generation removed from the RAW file.
iPhoto keeps tracks of your edits in a list and reapplies them when you open the file to view.

I am using RoboHelp 9 and can't seem to find out what WebHelp Search actually searches. Will it search Word documents, PowerPoint or PDF documents that are included in the Project files?
Or does it only search for the keywords that I enter for that topic page that the file is linked to?

Hi Deb
A fair question. But we first need to clarify exactly what you mean by Search. I say this because sometimes folks talk about the Index as if it were Search. And indeed, they are two separate things.
With the Index, the help author specifies specific keywords by either typing them in manually or by asking RoboHelp to assist (by using the Smart Index Wizard) and the experience for the end user is this. They click the Index tab, then begin typing what they are looking for. As they type, a list of keywords is attempted to dynamically match what is being typed. Often, before they completely type the keyword it appears in the list and off they go.
On the other hand, with Search, the user types the search term in full, then clicks a Go button. At that point the search is performed and candidate files are returned. And yes, typically, Microsoft Word documents, Adobe PDF documents, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and I believe even Microsoft PowerPoint documents will also be searched.
Hope this helps... Rick

IPhoto not saving simple edits

I have been using this current version of iPhoto for several weeks with no problems. Yesterday, it stopped saving simple edits even after hitting the done button. For example, I would crop a photo, click done, move onto the next photo and the previous edit would just disappear. It won't save simple enhancements or more complex adjustments either.
I am using iPhoto '11, version 9.2.3. There are no further updates available. I have not added any new software to my computer. I am at a loss. Any suggestions would be welcome!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

TD
