Searching for a type of App in a particular Category ?

A couple of years ago I complained about the ridiculousty pathetic search facility on the iTunes Store.
Now I need to search for a certain type of iPad Apps in a particular category, i.e. I want to filter the results.
I seem to remember Apple brought out a "Power Search" (?) that was supposed to improve the search facility on the store then, but I can't seem to find it now, and I'm not at all certain that it was much of an improvement then anyway !
Apart from just typing hit and miss words into the little search box, is there any expanded or advanced search facilty on the store that I have missed ?

Hi Bobsax,
Looking at other posts over the last couple of years there have been several about the pathetic Search facility, and it seems that the "Power Search" facility just disappeared along the way !!!!
Presumably it was there in one version of iTunes and not the next ?
I can't understand Apple's attitude towards this lack of a decent Search. It not as if they don't actively update iTunes.....there seem to be updates at least once a month !
Being able to filter your Search to a particular category would help.
It's as if Apple doesn't want you to find what you are looking for ?
If Apple thinks the existing "Search" is good enough for us to find anything in the iTunes Store, maybe they can make a video tutorial showing us dumb mortals it's hidden magic ?

    It looks like the app is not currently in the App Store, I can't find it in the UK nor US stores.
    If you had previously downloaded it then do you have a copy on your computer's iTunes so that you can sync it to your iPad ?

  • If I have lion installed on one computer, how do I transfer it to another without having to download it? My net is to slow to redownload it. I searched for lion os x.app in finder and couldn't find it.

    If I have lion installed on one computer, how do I transfer it to another without having to download it? My net is to slow to redownload it. I searched for lion os x.app in finder and couldn't find it.

    Downloading Lion from the Mac App Store didn't put the Lion OS on your computer. It put an application package called Install Mac OS X Lion on your computer; specifically, in your Applications folder.
    If you install from the Install Mac OS X Lion application package inside your Applications folder, the application package (the installer) will be deleted once the installation is complete. You must copy the installer to another location or to another drive/media before you run it to upgrade to Lion - if you didn't do that, then you have to download it again.
    If you did copy the installer, then you can just copy it over to any other Mac you own which meets Lion's minimum system requirements and run it again to upgrade those other Macs to Lion.

  • Error during search for movement type (953)

    Hi All,
             When I'm trying to issue goods to an internal order, I get the below error
    Error during search for movement type (953)
    The explanation is as follows
    The movement type of the warehouse system and certain parameters are assigned to each movement type of the inventory management system
    In this case no movement type of the warehouse management system was assigned to the inventory management movement type used by the paramaters enclosed in parantheses in the eror message.
    Is there some config missing in this case?? Please let me know how to overcome this error
    Regards,
    Ashwin

    when you create new movement types in MM, then you certainly have to create WM movement types too, if you want use the new movement types to post at a warehouse managed storage location.
    This customizing needs to be done in IMG > LE > WM > Activities > transfers >  define movement types
    and
    IMG > LE > WM > interfaces > inventory management > define movement types

  • Is there a way to search for games in the app store based on genre

    how do you search for games based on genre for example i want to search for all games under the role playing game genre?

    There does not appear to be. In Settings/General/Accessibility you can reverse the type of some things from black on white to white on black. You can also set up your iPhone to read text selections to you.

  • Clues about query's - Search for date type at INBOX

    Hello Everyone,
    At IC Webclient, does anyone experiment to add a new search date type at INBOX, at "search for date" search parameter?
    I added a new date type at Date Management, ZDATA_PR.
    When I try to assemble the query parts, I use something like this:
    CL CL_CRM_QUERYAUI_RUN_BTIL
    METH READ_BUSINESS_TRANSACTIONS
    CALL METHOD cl_crm_report_qupart=>get_qupart_by_token
        EXPORTING
          iv_token     = 'DAT'
          iv_date_type = 'ZDATA_PAR'
          iv_from      = ls_query_aui-from
          iv_to        = ls_query_aui-to
        IMPORTING
          ev_qupart    = ls_qupart_range-querypart.
      APPEND ls_qupart_and   TO lt_query.
      APPEND ls_qupart_range TO lt_query.
    However, I'm rewarded with an error message telling me that I have problems with the query.
    Does anyone can give me clues how to perform this action? I'm clueless and there's not almost no information about this...
    Thanks and Kind Regards
    Bruno Garcia

    Just to solve a mistake at example code:
    CALL METHOD cl_crm_report_qupart=>get_qupart_by_token
    EXPORTING
    iv_token = 'DAT'
    iv_date_type = 'ZDATA_PR'
    iv_from = ls_query_aui-from
    iv_to = ls_query_aui-to
    IMPORTING
    ev_qupart = ls_qupart_range-querypart.
    APPEND ls_qupart_and TO lt_query.
    APPEND ls_qupart_range TO lt_query.
    does anyone has a suggestion or a clue to give?
    Thanks

  • Creating search state to search for multiple types

    Hi,
    I am creating a search field where an user can type any word and it will search for it in three different types of assets.
    As of now, I am creating three diff search states and adding corresponding constraint to them.
    Is this the right way to do OR is there any work around where I can create only one search state and add three diff constrains for these diff asset types.
    Any guidance will be really appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Nelash Jindal

    Have you explored the integrated lucene search functionality? Basically you can allow lucene to index the asset types you want to search in and create a search form that queries the index. The internal search in the contributor UI is using the same method.
    Check the developers guide page: 857 Public Site Search, this could be used for your purpose as well... On the authoring environment all asset types are already enabled to be indexed.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Rodney

  • Search for file types in multiple folders

    Hello,
    I would like to copy all jpg images from around twenty folders into one folder. In Windows you simply go to the root folder and search for *.jpg, and it will list all jpg files in these twenty folders.
    How can I achieve the same effect in OSX? The finder doesn't seem to understand that command...

    Activate the Finder and press COMMAND-F. You will see the button labeled "Kind" then "Any." Select "Image" from the second button. A third button appears labeled "All." Select JPEG from the third button. This will list all such images for the selected directory in the toolbar above. To find on the entire drive select This Mac. To save the search click on the Save button to the right.
    You can use the + button on the right to add additional search criteria. Obviously you can create some very complex searches with a little time and practice.

  • Searching for Movie Types in iTunes

    I would like to search for surfing movies in ITunes but it isn't possible to search for a movie by subject in iTunes the way that I can with tv shows. Am I missing something or should I continue to get my surf movies from Netflix?

    You can browse movies by category (though there's not a category for "surf") but there's no way to search for them, only by Title, Actor, Director, Producer, or Year.

  • Looking for a type of app

    I really liked the Note part of the iPod Videos. The little program where you could get any word document or notepad document on your computer, then download it right onto your iPod and view it there. I want something simple like that for the iPhone. The note application that comes on the iPhone is just for typing notes, I want to be able to like, take some poems, or essays, or a list of vocabulary words or something, and view them on my iPhone whenever. Is there any app or way I can do this on the iPhone? Thank you.

    If you've got a Wi-Fi connection (only way to transfer those files unless you want to email them all to yourself at least until 3.0) there's a lot of app's out there from airsharing to memorystick then there's also the reader programs like quickfiles and then also the book programs like Stanza and eReader etc... as well. Have a look through the app store in the "Productivity" category.

  • Accidentally deleted an App Store app.  how can I get the icon back on my home screen?  when I search for it in the App Store it comes up 'open'. thanks.

    accidently deleted an app Store app.  how can I get the icon back on my home screen?  in the app store it comes up 'open' instead of install.

    What happens if you tap on open?
    Remember, if you ever want to find an app quickly, you can slide all the way to the left (iOS 6 and lower) or pull down (iOS 7 and later) to get to an app.
    If you know for certain that you have deleated the app, please try restarting your phone. There are many ways to do this, but the safest way would be to hold down the power button and then slide to power down.
    Once powered down, restart and try to find the icon on your screen. If you still can't find it, go into the App Store and then find the app you were trying to access. It should have an iCloud download symbol since you've purchased it before, rather than saying "install."

  • How to stop search for newer version of apps

    Every time I open iTunes I get 60 error messages telling me each individual app already is in my library with a newer version and am I sure I want to replace?  No, I don't, and I really wish I could get rid of whatever is causing iTunes to go looking in the first place.
