Searching for multiple keywords

Is there a way to fine tune a search---e.g. find all the photos with a certain keyword and then select out the ones I have marked with a check mark? When I try this I get all the photos that I ever marked with a check mark, not just the ones with the keyword or search term I've already searched on. I don't see an "advanced search" option with multiple search term options.

Cynthia:
Bring up the Keyword search pane and click on the checkmark button and then on the other keyword button. Only the photos with those two keywords will be displayed. The search box will show: √ and second keyword.
If you use the Option key while selecting a keyword it will omit all photos from the search with that keyword. The search box will display √ and not second keyword.
Happy New Year
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Quick search for multiple keywords

I haven't seen this anywhere else, and I just discovered it yesterday: If you type in several keywords separated by commas, it will search all the images in the folder/album/project that have all the specified keywords. No need to bring up the search HUD and click on individual keywords. It's been a big time saver for me when trying to narrow down a search.

Quick searching by multiple keywords

Hi,
Just a quick question. I don't seem to be able to search for multiple keywords through the quicksearch input (on the top right of the browser window). If I put in one keyword it works like a charm, but if I enter two (with either spaces or commas between) no results will show up.
If I use the search HUD I can select multiple keywords or even add multiple text filters and type the keywords into them and it works.
Is it only possible to search for one keyword through a quicksearch, or is there something I'm missing?
Thanks!

Search for multiple words in a field?

is there a way to search for multiple words in a field? for example, if i have a metadata field called NOTES that contains the string "Joe and Bob created this version on Sunday" is there a way to search for "Sunday, Joe, Bob" and have it return the asset?

Search using the "Matches Word" option instead of "Contains". That will limit your results to only assets that have a field value that includes all three of those terms. If they are not all included in the same field value, it will not return a hit. So if "Sunday" were in Keywords and "Joe" & "Bob" are in Notes, you would not get a hit for that search with "Matches Word".
"Contains" searches for the contiguous string in any field on the assets.
Further, if you add your Notes field to the Metadata Group "Asset Filter", it will appear in your advanced search options, asset subscription filters, and search expired responses. Then you can specifically limit the search to that field and choose from "Matches Word', "Contains", and several other search filters. Note that when you use "Matches Word" this way, you need to eliminate spaces from your comma delimited list of words or you will not get the search hits you want.

Customised metadata - search for multiple fields?

Background: I'm logging a STACK of footage and attempting to arrange it all by a series of different keyword categories (the day the footage was shot, location, camera type, content type, key players, etc). Each category has multiple variables (ie: in the camera category the options are Sony FS700, Canon 5D, Canon 600D, GoPro). I'm adding custom fields via the PPr Project Metadata>Add Property function using a simple Boolean tickbox.
Question: Is there a way to sort and search the custom fields? For example if I wanted to pull up all the footage shot on day 5, with the Sony, that comprises of interview content with a particular person is there a way to search for all these fields? I've been able to search for one keyword if I tag the material but so far searching and organising by multiple fields has eluded me.
The long way round is to create multiple bins and/or sequences for each variable in each category by hand, but that's a little tedious and has the potential to bloat the project. Any ideas to solve the problem? I've come from FCP a few months ago so the metadata side of PPro is still something I'm getting my head around. Thanks for reading!
EDIT: I'm running PPro CC for reference and can install and use Prelude if it helped.

For the time being I'm using a workaround employing titles above the footage to signify the relevant categories, and tagging significant moments in clips with markers, but it is perplexing.. Premiere seems to employ metadata in a phenomenal way - such that I haven't come across in any other mainstream editor - I just wish it had the functionality to sort and manage all that metadata it is producing beyond the search bar in the Project window.
Premiere gurus and Adobe affiniados: am I missing something obvious?

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and...

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and then select them all and change the permissions on just those folders .i.e. Search for the budget folders in all client folders and lock them down to just the project managers. Without having to go to each folder and apply the permissions.

How to search for multiple values with Bex Prompts

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to search for multiple values at the same time with Bex Prompts instead of searching one value at a time (please see the screen shot below). I searched the forum couldn't find any relevant answers. please let me know how to achieve?
Thanks,
Charvi.

Hi Charvi,
You can use wild card search to ensure you get multiple similar values listed as search output.use * for multiple characters and ? for single character.
For Example, Ravi * would result you all employees with first name as Ravi
You can use various search formats such as * Ravi * and * Ravi and Ra?? etc.
Thanks

How can i search for multiple file names (images) in bridge?

Hello everyone!
Does anyone know how to search for multiple file names in bridge?
That is to copy & paste something like this: _MG_2152, _MG_2177, _MG_2194, _MG_2195, _MG_2202, _MG_2212, _MG_2219, _MG_2261, _MG_2362, _MG_2401
Not using several criterias in the search box that is. That takes too long.
Thanks

Can I search for multiple images simultaneously in Aperture?

Can I search for multiple images simultaneously in Aperture? For example, search for 'Image2.jpg, Image3.jpg, Image5.jpg' by image name, out of different folders?

dusan -- your best procedure is likely to be to type the first file name (without extension) in the search field of the Photos View, and then mark that file either with a Flag or a color label. (You might clear all Flags prior.) If you have a lot of images or a slow computer (or both ) you may have to wait a few seconds. Aperture will show "Loading ... " on the left side of the tool strip while it churns through your images.
Then hit backspace twice, and type "60". Mark the file found.
Repeat with variations.
Then go to Flagged view, or filter the whole Photos view for the color-label you used.

When viewing a PDF document; cant you search for a keyword anymore?

Hello (me again lol) prior to 2.2 Software upgrade I recall that when viewing a pdf document I could search for certain keywords; now I cant figure out how.
First off, again I'm using 2.2 Software on Verizon' HTC Incredible.
Next up when viewing a pdf I believe its using Adobe Reader. I have a few options but one thing I cannot find is "search" or even 'go to" (page number)
I believe Quck Office doesnt pull up any PDFs so I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to search for keywords; thanks

If you are using the Quick Office Application or the PDF Viewer, make sure both applications are updated to the newest versions.
You can do that by going to the Android Market Place on the device, then press menu and download, then you can see applications that can be updated.
To check for updates while using Quick Office, press the Menu button, then select Updates. Quickoffice will automatically check for updates to your software.
You can search for text strings in your document using Quickword. Switch to Reflow View, then press the Menu button, and tap Search. A text entry field will appear at the top of your document. Enter the text you wish to search for and tap the search icon to the right of the text field. Quickword will highlight all instances of the text you are searching for.

Searching for a Keyword tag alias

My searches work fine as long as I type something that is an actual keyword tag. But I end up with nothing if try to search for a keyword tag alias. Is this a bug or by design?

Thanks,
I should have searched for "synonym" rather than "alias".

Easiest way to search for a keyword in over 100 dts packages on a complex SQL 2000 server

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the easiest way to search for a keyword (e.g. myfilename.txt) in over 100 dts packages on a complex SQL 2000 server please. I've searched the internet for a solution, and there seem to be various third party tools available, etc. However
ideally I would like to be able to run a block of code which returns the result within query analyser, since this SQL 2000 server is a production server and I'd rather not have to go through change management for investigation purposes.
Kind Regards,
Kieran.

How do I use domain guessing for single word but search for multiple?

I would like to configure the search bar to make smart decisions about weather it should fill in an address or search for results. At the very least I would like it to be able to search when multiple words are entered but fill in the address when it's only one word (eg: typing "zelda" would take me to www.zelda.com but "the legend of zelda" would use search)

The answer that you are probably looking for is what Google calls the '''I'm Feeling Lucky''' Search. Not quite what you describe but if there is one result that stands out as the most common result, you will get taken directly to the page. (Wouldn't work for me, I seldom find what I looking for in the first five hits.)
This will involve a change to your '''about:config''' configuration variables.
'''keyword.URL ''' default string
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
The '''&gfns=1''' is what gets you the I'm Feeling lucky search.

<hr>Personally I prevent all (external) searching from the location bar to prevent errors from being redirected to a substitute page (along with additional filtering via the '''Adblock Plus''' extension).
For '''zelda''', I would type in the word and then use '''Ctrl+Enter''' so that it becomes www.zelda.com (with "Ctrl+Shift+Enter" gets .org, and with "Shift+Enter" gets .net).

* Firefox and other Browser Keyboard Shortcuts (Comparison Table)<br>http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/firefox/keyboard.htm
The '''AwesomeBar''' search is what you get in the location bar drop-down when you enter strings of characters that exist in the Title and/or url address of a previously visited site or one that you have in your bookmarks. You see those choices '''before''' you press "Enter".
Once you press "Enter" by default you would do a search with your currently selected (default) search engine, as if you had entered the search into the search bar.
I don't like the last method and would use a ''keyword shortcut'' to use a customized search or to go directly to a web page. But without knowledge of what is available using the Location bar to run an external search works okay for most people.
<hr>
The "weather" threw me because for weather you really do want a keyword shortcut, the word you meant was whether.

Searching for multiple words

Wanted to ask if you knew of a script I could use or any other way to search a document for any words or phrases that appear in a specific list and highlight the word or phrase if it appears in the Pages doc. I'm using Word 2008 on a Mac. For instance, my list could contain the words 'solicitor' or 'lawyer' but also the phrase 'employment unfair dismissal'. My list has about 100 words and phrases that I need to search for in each Pages document. Ideally the script or other method would highlight in the Pages doc any of the words or phrases I am searching for. Thanks, Dave.

Hi,
No. My list looks like this:
Contact Law
Solicitor
Solicitors
Lawyer
Lawyers
Legal advice
Specialist solicitor
Specialist solicitors
Barrister
Barristers
Employment solicitor
Employment solicitors
Employment lawyer
Employment lawyers
Employment law
Employment law solicitor
Unfair dismissal
Unfair dismissal claims
Unfair dismissal claim
Unfair dismissal solicitor
Unfair dismissal solicitors
Claim for unfair dismissal
Claims for unfair dismissal
Constructive dismissal
Wrongful dismissal
Wrongful dismissal claim
Wrongful dismissal claims
No win no fee employment law
No win no fee employment lawyer
No win no fee employment lawyers
No-win, no-fee solicitor
Plus maybe another 60 words or phrases. What I want to do is take the above list and check these words or phrases for how many times they appear in a Pages document. I can see how you can use the search feature in Pages for single words, but you can't put multiple words or phrases into the search field.
Cheers,
Dave.
