Search feature in BI 7 works sporadically

Hi guru jis,
I have been in a BI 7 lab testing some steps for about a month now and have finally run into a few problems which I am not sure how to work around.
Sometimes after I create an object, for example a datasource, then choose to search for it, the search will not find it.  Yet, if I browse to it I am able to locate it in most cases.  It also seems to happen that later on the search starts working, although if I deliberately log off and back into BI or refresh the sessions that doesn't help.  I am unable to give the steps to duplicate since this seems to be a sporadic issue, and so I'd like to first just ask a basic question: are there any known issues or problems with the search feature in BI 7 or something obvious I could be overlooking? Id fifn't seem to have this in BW3.5 although it has been a while since I used it so my memory could be fuzzy.
I can provide a specific example of required.
TIA

  • The App Store Search feature appears to be working again.... I hope!

    I had the same issue that many users were reporting earlier today about not being able to use the search feature in the App Store. I have been experimenting for the last 15 minutes or so and it is working for me now.
    Keep trying ... It may now be coming back for all soon.

    It wasn't working for me earlier and I was experiencing the same weird behavior that everyone else seemed to be experiencing. I was getting the "Can't connect to iTunes Store" message when trying to do a search. Everything else worked, just not the search feature,
    Anyway, all seems to be OK now. No bizarre workarounds needed.

  • Search Feature in Mail only partly works

    Good day,
    I have two questions today
    1. when I search for a specific sender in my mail for Mac software I doesn't find or rarely finds any of the received messages, basically the search feature FROM doesn't work. When I switch FROM to ALL it will only show my sent messages.
    Which setting can I update to fix this?
    2. What do I need to use if I wish to search for two words in Mail without seeing results for each individual word?
    Thank you very much :-)

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
              Envelope Index
              ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick.  First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it.  Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy...

    Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick.  First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it.  Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy...  When I search for a file, A) it asks me if it's a name, or it wont produce anything, and B), its slower than in prior OS versions and in some instances I have to toggle to a different directory and go back to my original directory in the search: menu bar or the search wont produce anything...  Very buggy. 

    It appears to me that network file access is buggy in Maverick.
    In my case I have a USB Drive attached to airport extreme (new model) and when I open folders on that drive they all appear empty. If I right click and I select get info after a few minutes! I get a list of the content.
    It makes impossible navigate a directory tree.
    File access has been trashed in Maverick.
    They have improved (read broken) Finder. I need to manage a way to downgrade to Lion again.

  • Is the search feature no longer working?

    I have been trying to search the KBase for answers to posters questions but no matter what text I type in I simply get sent to a page that asks me to select a country, when I do it simply takes me to the main forum page. The same thing happens on the main forum page also. No matter what you do it won't work. If you are in a specific forum and use the search feature it will work within that forum but I cannot get it to work using the advanced search or on a search for a particular Kbase article. Even some of the links to kbase articles that I had return me with the same error. In fact, all of them do.
    It seems a shame that all that knowledge is going to waste!!
    Is there any idea what is happening and a timetable as to when it will be operational again?

    Hi Al --
    I've experienced this, too. I don't know the cause, but a work-around is, when you get that "select a country page," simply hit the "back" button on your browser so that you're once again on the search page and then hit the search button again.
    It's worked for me in the past and I just tried it again just now to make sure and it still works.

  • The search feature in Address Book no longer works

    I have over 2,400 contacts. For no apparent reason the search feature in my Apple Address Book no longer works. The  Address Book app has quit several times recently, again for no apparent reason. It is probably unrelated, but Preview has also been quitting. I have repaired permissions and used Disk Warrior 4.4 to rebuild the directory. Any thoughts?

    That was a while back...after a little research to jog my memory, it had to do with iCloud. I found this on another page, and I think this is what I did to fix it:
    "I had the same problem and fixed it a slightly different (and probably safer) way:
    Backup your Address Book - File > Export > Address Book Archive
    Go into preferences > iCloud - untick syncing for Contacts
    When it asks you, tell it to delete the contacts from your local Mac (all your local address cards will be deleted but they will still be in iCloud)
    All your cards should now be deleted from Address Book on your Mac
    Quit Address Book
    Go into preferences > iCloud - tick syncing for Contacts (this will download your contacts into Address Book again)
    Open Address Book and after a few secs you should see all your cards and the problem should be fixed"
    The important part is to be sure to export your Address Book before doing anything. I think I ended up afater deleting all the cards and quitting address book, I reimported them from the backup I exported. Has been fine since. This is pretty safe as long as you have that exported file.

  • Non-working find/search feature

    Neither the Find nor the Search feature works in Adobe reader (the relevant document was downloaded from an online database -- perhaps Academic Search Premier or Ebscot -- I do not recall). A message is returned that word is not found even for a word that I know is in the document. These tools are needed for reviewing documents of hundreds of pages.

    If the file is a scanned images of pages, then the words are not really in the pdf file only a picture of the word.

  • Annotating pdf documents in Preview - the text search feature doesn't work?

    Hi everyone,
    I'd like to annotate my pdf documents using preview. However, I realized the other day that as soon as I start annotating a document (with notes, shapes, highlighting, etc), the preview text search doesn't work anymore.
    Thanks for any help or advice!

    This is a known problem. I have seen one suggestion to print the annotated PDF as a new PDF in order to get search capability back. You can try the Apple Discussions "search" feature at the upper right corner to look for more suggestions.

  • Search feature not working most of the time

    My  search feature on my iPhone 4 rarely works anymore. After swiping screen from left to right or pressing HOME button nothing happens when I start typing. If I press the search button it will take a long time before responding.

    Sharing between Leopard and Snowleopard does not work reliably. For this reason, we do not recommend mixing Operating Systems.
    Hope this helps,
    Syd

  • Search Feature Not Working in Mail 10.7.4

    Hi, the search feature is not working properly in Mail since upgrading to 10.7. If I use Spotlight from the desktop, that search will find the particular mail message I'm looking for, but searching directly within mail produces horrible results. I know I can just use spotlight, but sometimes I just want to search within mail. Any suggestions?

    Erase and rebuild index:
    Open Terminal and type$ sudo mdutil -E /
    you'll notice it indexing...

  • Mail search feature not working

    Not a good day today but to top it off, my Mail search feature doesn't seem to be working.  In the past I've praised OSX Mail search features and enjoyed the instant results all whilst bashing the inop feature Outlook and Notes try to utilize.  I'm afraid to say the OSX Lion Mail search feature is completely non-functional.  As I was searching for this issue through the support topics, I noticed this very topic appear then quickly disappear.  I couldn't duplicate the search again for anything.  Hmm.
    Also, what's the dealy with opening a PDF in Mail with Preview and your last 5 PDF's open as well?  Uncool.  And I want Safari to open with my Home page, not the last page I visited.
    At least the Spotlight will still identify the messages I'm wrangling for.
    No need to reply... just need to vent a bit.

    A lot of things are broken in LION. Not recommended for professionals (only iPad users).
    But here's a way to make better use of Mail Search:
    In the new Mac LION MAIL app, it's not apparent that you can search for any part of any email address the way you could before with any previous OS, for when you type partial email text in the MAIL search field, it simply gives you a drop-down list of wrong or limited suggestions and none of the suggestions are email addresses, but people's names. I don't want to search by name, I want to search by email address. (Maybe I'm the only one who does this.) If two different email addresses have the same associated name (which I have), it chooses the wrong one and searches for the wrong email address!
    But there is a way:
    1) Select the mailbox you want to search (if any).
    2) Type in the search field:
              to: any_string ["return" or "enter"]
              OR
              from: any_string ["return" or "enter"]
    3) Your entry will change from this:
    to this:
    4) Notice that after you press "return" or "enter", your "to:" (or "from:") becomes a pull-down-menu button and the MAIL's silly choices go away. If you click the button, you get this:
    and you can change your choice.
    3) Strangely, "to:" or "from:" MUST be ALL lowercase for this change to take place. (It will still work if "To:" and "FroM:" are all or part uppercase, but the change to a menu button will not occur.)
    4) On the menu bar below the toolbar, you will see the places to search ("All…Selected mailbox…Inbox…Drafts…Sent…Flagged")
    Hello Lara_Croft.
    Again, this time with your original fix.  This works for me..  big help until Apple gets this squared away.

  • How about telling us in advance what programs or plug ins will NOT work with the new Firefox. I just lost my "safe search" feature with AVG, and I think that's sort of important!

    Just upgraded to Firefox 6 (which I like, by the way), but when I upgraded to 5, I lost the gaming feature when I installed AVG, and now I've lost the AVG safe search feature, which I think is very important considering that I have grandkids that use my computer,
    How about telling us in advance (and I'm running Firefox, so a link would be easy) whether or not we're going to lose an important feature like the one I lost?
    So, how do I get back to Firefox 5 without uninstalling and reinstalling so I can have that safe search feature back?

    Attached is Dennis Linam’s Audition – “Log File” and “Log – Last File”
    Contact information Dennis [email protected]
    Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
    Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
    created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion 
    DURIM - Okay.  I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
    If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]?  We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
    Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro?  If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
    I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

  • Oracle Help search feature doesn't work with RoboHelp generated output

    I am using RoboHelp HTML, Version 10 on Windows 7.  I am able to generate Oracle Help output and integrate it with my Java application.  When I do this, the Content and Index tabs work fine, but the Search feature does not. Regardless of what search term I try, I get no search results.  In generating the Oracle Help output, I used the default options throughout.
    Any suggestions as to what is causing this problem?
    Thanks.

    Dear Peter,
    I met the following problem, and please help me.
    My English (not Chinese) operating system: Windows XP
    Version: 2002
    Before using RoboHelp 7 to generate Webhelp, I perform the
    following steps:
    1. Control Panel->Regional Options
    2. On the "Languages" page make sure make sure you check the
    box "Install files for East Asian languages".
    3. On the "Advanced" page select "Chinese" from the language
    dropdown list.
    Then I perform the following steps:
    1. Use RoboHelp 7 to generate Webhelp (my Webhelp project
    contains localized Chinese files).
    2. In the "Search" tab, input a Chinese character(For example
    "连接") and perform a seach.
    Result: Serching...(or 正在搜索) or
    No topics found (or
    未找到主题)。
    Expected result: I can get the result.
