Spotlight search does not include map, iTunes, google...

I upgraded to yosemite from mavericks after seeing the latest feature videos from WWDC
But greatly disappointed to see so many features showcased does not work the same way as it was showcased
For example
The spotlight is not working as expected, it does not include maps, web search, photos etc., i even changed the default search engine to bing still does not work
Any idea, if i am missing something
Also is it possible to include github, stack overflow, wikipedia in the spot light search

With the iphone 4s sometimes the spotlight search does not work and you must restart the device. There will be an update that will fix the problem?

Hi. I have 3 different casemate hard cases and i have been experiencing same problem.

Search does not connect to Itunes store

I'm new to Itunes and downloaded Itunes 10.5.1. When I attempt to use the manual search function for music, the software attempts to connect to the Itunes store and then times out. However, when I tune on the column search, I'm able to call up listings from the store. I would like to use the manual search since I'm not sure of the category for some of the songs that I want. I've tried deleting and reloading the software three times and have tried other fixes suggested on the Apple website including the System Configuration Utility, using Safe Mode, creating a new Windows user account, etc. I haven't received an answer back from the Apple support folks yet. Any ideas?

Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than Network connectivity tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:
... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here.

Spotlight/Searching does not work for afp shares in Lion

Hi
I cannot search for files in Finder on my afp shares. The server and client are both running Lion 10.7. Anything I am missing? Should this work or not? I'm so used to Spotlight I would really hate it if this isn't supported for afp shares.
Thanks NEI

Acrobat catalog, PDX, files only work from local or network drives.

IPhoto 08: why Finder search does not include pictures in `iPhoto Library`?

If I try and search with Finder for all the images in my HD, there is apparently no way to make it show the pictures contained in the iPhoto Library directory...why?
Of course, if I start search INSIDE the iPhoto Library it will show them.......
It seems like the iPhoto Library directory is somehow 'different' and kept hidden, forcing you to use iPhoto directly.
Any hint on this and possibile workaround in finder?
thank you

Just got my new MacPro a week ago and had not yet launched iPhoto 08, so I just now did that, authorized it to update the iPhoto stuff already in my account, then dinked around with some things. Changed one photo, deleted some stuff, and so on. Then quit the program. I just did a Spotlight seach on the photo I had altered and it showed up just fine. A command click on the title in the Spotlight results opened up the folder the photo is now in:
"/Users/francine/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Modified/2007/Pine Lake Resort/titlePLRF_2.psd"
Must admit I was a bit startled by the fact that the iPhoto Library is no longer showing as a folder. Nonetheless its contents do seem to be updated--I imported two photos from an external drive, and they immediately showed up in Spotlight as being in the iPhoto Library.
So the only thing I can suggest is that you try to get Spotlight to re-index your iPhoto Library. You do this by opening the Spotlight pane in System Preferences. Make sure there is a check mark in front of Images, the click the Privacy tab and add your iPhoto Library to the list, you can just drag and drop it into the list. Wait a minute, then select it in the Privacy list and click the minus button to remove it. Spotlight should start re-indexing it.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

When I generate and then view the help, it looks perfect! I changed the name of the project folder since the information is proprietary. I have several pictures including the parent folder and the only 3 folders that are generated. I cannot find the Webhelp output folder. I think this is what you need to see.

I just downloaded (updated) Firefox to V 20.0.1 now the "search" does not work, either via the mouse click or the enter key. Windows XP.

Updated to latest version, V 20.0.1 Now when on the home page the "search" does not function with mouse click or the enter key. Currently running XP Service pack 3. I also have the same problem (after same firefox update at home with my HP laptop running Windows 7.

You can check if you still have the XML files of the default search engines including Google in the searchplugins folder in Firefox program folder. 
If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.
Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
Try to delete the search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Solved: Quick search does not work with FF4

[https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B1WuaaPz4AKtMDk1MDA2ODktN2NlYy00NTg2LWJmOGUtNDI3ODdiYzQzODli&hl=en failed quick search example]
As you can see from the image above, I have a quick search defined for 'am' which is set as a 'keyword' for an Amazon.com search. When I type the keyword followed by a search term it it displays an error page with a path to some resource in a .jar file.
Note the save URL does not include a %s. It used the previously document behavior of having any text that followed the keyword appended to the keyword URL.
When I add the %s to the end of the saved quick search URL, the quick search works correctly. This change confused me for a while until I dug into it and now I need to check and update all of my quick searches. :-(

Hi qzy,
When you enable anonymous access in SharePoint, did you want the anonymous user have the permission
to access the site content such as library or just need them to be capable to search? You may need to check your configurations according to the document below based on your requirement.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263363.aspx
When you enable search for anonymous user for the site collection, is it a team site or publishing
site? By default team sites are designed for intranet site so search on Team Site with default value will be prompted for
credentials because “OSSSearchResults.aspx” page is configued to publish results based on “LayoutsPageBaseClass(Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls)” class. The LayoutsPageBase Class Represents an application page (sometimes
called a "_layouts" page). If you want to do that in team site, you need to remove the “LayoutsPageBase Class(Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls)” from “OSSSearchResults.aspx” page, which is not a recommended way.
Publising Sites are desinged for internet site so “Search/Results.aspx”
is configured in a way where it can deliver search results for
anonymous users. If in your scenario it’s for publishing site, you need to ensure that the content which should appear in the search result is visible for anonymous user. (Follow the “Enable anonymous access for individual lists”
part in the link above)
You can also create a search center to see if the user can get search result there. Regarding the
second issue, you need to check the crawl logs and ULS logs to find the clue.
For more information, please refer to:

Hope this helps.

My Apple TV does not recognise My iTunes password. It works on all other devices but not Apple TV? Any ideas why or how to fix?

Any ideas why my Apple TV does not recognise my iTunes password, when all other devices, including these communities are good with it?

Hi Mick2291,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I'd suggest restarting, and then restoring, your Apple TV if the issue persists:

Ipod 160g does not appear on itunes but it appears on windows when in disk mode

my ipod 160 g does not appear in itune (disk mode or not) but it appears in windows as IPOD (F:) only when it's in disk mode. I tried reseting it by holding the menu and center button it stop but then it goes back to the apple logo screen and stay on untill the battery dies and nothing else happens how can I reset it to is factory settings?

When you connect it in Disk Mode, leave it charging the iPod Battery till Full Charge.
In the meantime, 30 minutes or so into the charging, ( I just want the Ipod to have sufficient power for any harddisk Operation)
go to Window Explorer (or My Computer),
Select the Ipod, right click properties, ->tools->error checking->Check Now->fix error
After the error fixing (may take a while but then you still have to wait till the battery charging is complete.)
Disconnect the iPod from the PC.
Antivirus has a tendency to freeze Itunes sync Operation with Ipod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your Ipod filesystem, so when iTunes cant read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
My suggestion.
Connect your Ipod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete. - Done above
Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
Stop the Antivirus program
Connect your Ipod to the PC
When Itunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well, since you got such a huge library.
When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
Good Luck! and have a Nice Day!

Spotlight shortcut does not work (ctrl + space)

Spotlight shortcut does not work. When I press ctrl + space, nothing happen. When I click on magnifier icon by mouse, everything work well.
In Spotlight configuration and also in keyboard shortcut configuration this shortcut is present and marked as active.
I've also tried to disable and enable back this shortcut but it still not work.

Hello Zeleznypa,
For me, the default shortcut for Spotlight is Command - Space (not Control Space).
OS X Yosemite: Spotlight keyboard shortcuts
Open Spotlight to start a search Command (⌘)-Space bar
Open a Finder window with the search field selected Option-Command (⌘)-Space bar
I changed the shortcut in System Preferences to Control Space and it still worked with that.
Could you check your keyboard with the Keyboard Viewer?
OS X Yosemite: Use the Keyboard Viewer
Take care,
Nubz

IPhone Does Not Appear in iTunes

Hi! My iPhone 3GS does not appear in iTunes. It is recognised by Windows. It is recognised by iTunes in my desktop PC, but the problem is when I use my Samsung NC10 portable notebook.
I am using Windows XP Home, version 2002, with SP3.
iTunes is version 9.2.0.61
So far I have followed suggestions in:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495
including re-installing iTunes, resetting iPhone, checking that required services are running, stopping & starting services. I have used msconfig to see if I couls identify any conflicts but no success.
I used iTunes diagnostics, and it answered "no iPhone, iPad, iPod found"
I DO get an error when I start iTunes:
"The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please re-install iTunes" However, the Samsung NC10 does not have a CD/DVD drive, so I am assuming this is the cause of this error.

Create batch input, does not include all records

Have anyone experienced, when doing Create Batch Input from the LSMW menu it does not include all rows.
For example I have a .txt file with 3000 records that I specify in "Specify Files"
"Read Data" reads 3000 records.
"Convert Data" Converts 3000 records
"Create Batch input Sessions" creates 2461 records? ?
I have noticed that this happen when the system is busy running many batches and Idocs.

I'm talking about LSMW programs with regular Batch input Recording.
I haven't noticed which transactions it skips since I do not run the Batch, when I notice that it does not include all rows as I have read and converted.
However usually if I "Create the batch input session" once again it includes all the records from the conversion before.
But since Create a batch input can take a long time depending on the amount of transactions it creates this is not a desired option.
So it is not possible that the transactions it does not create are errors since its possible to run them successfully. And I haven't used any SKIP TRANSACTION in the mapping step.
But like I said this only happens when the system is running many batches / idocs at the moment, for example if we are loading the material master at the same time as I run my batch input programs.

Spotlight search does not include map, iTunes, google...
