Searching for a specific Server

When using Finder to find files that are on a mounted server I can't specify the exact server to look in. It just gives me "shared", "This Mac" and my hard drive. It takes too long to let it search thru all of the shared files. Can I specifically select which server I want to search? I could do this in OS X10.4, but can't seem to be able to do that since upgrading to 10.5.

no. but you can do the following. open the server in question in finder and start a finder search from that window. then it will give options to search "this mac", the folder you are in (i.e. that server) or "Shared". choose the second option.

  • How to Search for a specific element in a MultiGraph?

    Hi there
    Im trying to implement a Multigraph ADT in Java. Multigraph is a graph that has multible edges connecting a node. I assume you all know what a Graph ADT looks like.
    So i think ive got all the basic methods functions of a normal graph/mulitgraph and now i want to search for a element in it
    The question is how will i so that?
    Do i use a breadth first search?
    But i thought a BFS traverses all the elements in a graph? And how can i use a BFS to search for a specific element in a graph?
    Thanks

    Hey there
    thanks for your reply but i still some query.
    I thought of doing that but i want to remember the nodes i revisted to get to the target (not all - but the quickest route to that node)
    My design so far is:
    have 3 Interface namely Graph, Node & Edge.
    Classes will inherit those interface to provide the actual implementation as i want the details/coding to be abstract meaning i can give many different way of implementations.
    The graph class will add nodes & edges where when adding edges, edge will store 2 nodes in it respectively source & destination nodes.
    Both Node & Edges will be stored in graph using some data structures atm (arrayList i presume)
    My Design is that i want to (my aim of the task of searching) search for a node in the multigraph by inputting (maybe 2 nodes) into method - start node target node! The method should return a list of nodes to get to the target node.+
    So so far i have this wee algorithm in mind:
    +1. Input start + target node as parameters+
    +2. Use BFS to search the graph+
    +3. When reached target node - halt+
    +4. return the list of nodes that visited to get there (but not all - only the precise & fastest)+
    So will that work?
    If so how do i go about doing implementation?
    Thanks

  • Is it possible to search for a specific term or data in Numbers for iOS?

    I looked for similar questions, but all of the similar questions did not specify if they were talking about the Mac version or the iOS.  So I apologize if the question has been asked.
    Is there a way to search for a specific term or criteria in Numbers for iOS?
    My father owns a small business and has a large inventory of parts.  He wants a simple way to search his inventory for a particular part number and see how many of a the specific part number he has in his inventory, while not in the shop or having to call in.  He wants to take an iPad along with him.
    My first thought was to create an spreadsheet.  I have a basic knowledge of how spreadsheets work, and I don't think my father would like anything more complicated.
    I was thinking about making the 1st column list the part number, 2nd column list the quantity in the shop, 3rd column list the quantity in the truck.
    If Numbers for iOS is not able to do this, suggestions for alternatives are welcome.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi j4nitor
    Would the "Find" option in the "Tools" menu do the job?
    If you search for the part number, it will be highlightet, and with your outline for a setup, I guess that would give you the overview you are talking about.
    Hope it helps.
    Best regards

  • How do i search for a specific music video instead of browsing through thousands

    how do i search for a specific music video instead of browsing through thousands?

    Type a keyword or two in the search area - shown in the upper right here (the oval area):

  • Is there a way to search for a specific keyword within the sites to which the bookmarks are linked? I need to search all linked sites in the bookmark folder without having to open each page and "find" manually.

    Currently, I must browse through 50 or so bookmarked pages to see if a specific topic is covered. I would like to be able to search all bookmarked pages at once for a specific keyword. For example, if I have 50 news sites bookmarked and I would like to see which pages have the word "tuna" in them, I would need to open each page individually and do a "find". If I could search all of those pages at once, then I would save an immense amount of time. I have looked on the add-ons and found nothing...

    1. Create a smart album and in the drop down in the top right corner select file status
    2. Check mark the file status box and select 'Offline'
    Now you should have all your 'Offline' (Yellow Exclamation and/or Red Slash) files.
    To reconnect..
    1. Select the missing files.
    2. Go to File and scroll to Manage Referenced Files
    The dialog box will have one of the photos selected
    3. Select the drive and folder that contains the referenced file and select it
    4. Click 'Reconnect All'
    This might not reconnect all of them, but the dialog box will still be open and you can reconnect the ones left.

  • I get an error that says can't connect to the itunes store when I search for a specific artist only

    Hi all,
    When I try to search for music by a specific artist in the iTunes store on my iPhone 5, I get an error that says "Can't connect to the iTunes store".  This only happens when I search for music by this band.  I can search for other artists and listen to song clips and everything seems to be connecting to the iTunes store just fine.  But for some reason, it doesn't work with this artist.  The band name is July for Kings.  Not sure if anyone else has had this issue, but I hope so!
    Thanks,
    Rick

    IF you are not able to resolve your issue then contact Apple Support at https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.do?caller=ikb&PRKEYS=PL220,1316 29,PL113,PL302,PF3,PF4,PF9,PL303,PL339,p…
    hopefully they can help. You may also be interested to know that for some reason it is just not available to a lot of people at the same time. Appears to be an issue of more users than their servers can handle. Has happened periodically for at least 6 months that I know of but apparently users are able to use within several days if there are no other issues with the users device.

  • Search - search for a specific list in the root site

    Hello ,
    I have a SharePoint portal .
    The structure is  "Root Site >> Sub site 1" && "Root Site >> Sub site 2" .
    I configured search on the server.
    in the "Search Result web part" , I set  "{SearchBoxQuery} Path:{Site.URL}" in the query text because I want when user in "Sub site 1" , search only through this site.
    The root site has a "Document Library" .
    I need when user on sub site 1 and search for a word . I need to search only on this site and just a document Library on the root site .
       How Can I do that ?
       Thanks
    ASk

    Hi himo,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to search only on one library of the root site and the subsite 1.
    I suggest you use the following query to query the result in the search result web part.
    {searchboxquery} Path:http://server/rootsite/subsite1 OR  Path:http://server/rootsite/library

  • Searching for a specific file size

    Hello,
    It's been a while but it seems like XP let me search for specific file sizes - e.g. if I wanted to search for files that were greater than 10GB or if I wanted to search for files less than 20GB.
    I can't figure it out in Windows 8.1.
    If the answer is possible through standard search and not powershell, I'd prefer the GUI way.
    Thanks

    In File Explorer (was Windows Explorer), type the search criteria into the box in the top right of the screen and press Enter.
    Example searches are:
    A minimum file size, simply type size:>30,000KB into the Search box and press Enter.
    type:=.pdf or type:=.doc will display specific file types.
    filename:x will display files using a partial filename. x represents the partial filename you want to search for.
    kind:video, kind:music or kind:pictures will find all the videos, music or pictures.
    If you just click or tap in the Search box, Search Tools will appear which allows the choosing of a Kind, a Size, Date Modified, Other Properties and Advanced search. In Folder Options > Search Tab, the search options can be changed, e.g. Find partial
    matches.
    Providing the location is indexed, you can search in File Explorer for a specific word or phrase by typing content:
    followed by your phrase enclosed in double quotes. This will produce a list of files matching the criterion.
    Speed up the search by opening File Explorer (was Windows Explorer) at the folder you want to search, rather than at the root folder. Also, pressing F3 will show Search options like Date Modified and Size.

  • Search for a specific day

    How do i filter a search to find all photos for a specific day and month for all years?

    Hmm.. Well, the only way I've been able to see that is to use filters, and control click on each year-day combo (using control/command click to select more than one entry) and LR will show them all.  You might then drag them into a collection...
    Of if you're not doing this a lot, you could create a smart collection and make a field for each year by "capture date" (which apparently won't let you add wildcard values).
    If nobody else has a better suggestion (quite possibly they will!), then you might put in a feature request to allow Date in smart collections to have a wild card.
    Cheers!

  • Search for data in server based database.

    I have a web page (http://gosolivitahomes.com) where I can enter a search for data in my server based database.  If I enter a value less than $100,000 in Min Price I get no response.  For values >= $100,000 I get the correct response. Why?  Please help.

    Yesterday I got no properties under $100,000.
    To day I tried again and the first time I got 2 results, but when I went back and repeated the same thing, I got no result.
    Then, like John Waller suggested, I cleared my cache and the 2 result were back.
    Perhaps your problem is a template or other cms cache issue. I don't know very much about it, but when I had a login problem I had to disable user cache i the cms (Joomla).
    I hope you will solve the problem
