What's your opinion on the search function on the NI website?

Hi all NI web goers:
I give 1.5 of 5 stars to NI's search function. Most of the times I got very frustrated when searhing NI's website. It returns a lot of entries for my search, but either none of them are relevant, or there are about 10 duplicate links to the same page, and multiply that by the # of unique links you get, well, you get the idea.
So, what's your opinion on the search function offered by the NI website?
-Joe

Not sure what this has to do with LabVIEW. I suspect the Feedback on NI Discussion Forums might be as good as place as any. This has been brought up before:

  • The search function in the itunes store does not work.  It will accept a request and suggest searches but then it locks up and will not search.  Clicking on the magnifying glass or a suggested search does nothing.  Re-installing itunes has not helped.

  • Is there a way to use the 'search' function outside the search menu

    Is it possible, to activate the 'search function' outside the 'search menu' on the iPod classic ? With 30000 songs and more on an iPod, it would be great, if I could use this option i.e. in cover flow, display songs, or display albums. This way, I won't get any blisters on my fingers, from scrolling from "A hard day's night" to "You can't do that".
    Thanks for your help !

    A couple of suggestions:
    1. If you just have a few items you don't want included when you shuffle then find them in your library or playlist, pull up the info on the song/book/etc (File menu, Get info option), go to the "Options" tab and click the box that says "Skip when shuffling"
    2. If there are a lot of items, then you may want to create a smart playlist (File menu, New Smart Playlist option) and set it up so that it excludes all the items you don't want. Then you can play that playlist on shuffle.
    Hope that helps!

  • Where is the search function in the iTunes store in this latest version?

    Hello
    Since downloading the latest version of iTunes, I cannot find the "search" function in the ITunes store, to search for apps, movies, etc.  Can someone please tell me where this is now located? Frustrating and really hate this new version. Why did they change a perfectly decent product?
    Thanks!

    Actually, not on mine.  All there is in the upper right hand corner is a list of my history - but no search function.  Any ideas as to how I can make it appear in the upper right corner?
    Thanks

  • Where is the Search Function in the Forums?

    Where has the search function gone from the forums? I have been using it frequently lately because I am setting up a Powerbook 1.5 g4 with FCP 5.1.4 and it is the best way to find answers for "legacy systems" such as mine.

    That search is DIFFERENT? Basic SUPPORT search?

  • What is wrong with the search function after the recent update?

    In Ibook the search stays high-lighted until a page is turned...why?
    What's the idea behind that?
    You used to search, tap on the result you liked and go to the page with the result highlighted.
    When tapping the screen, the high-light would disappear....
    now you can tap till you are blue in the face... the search/result stays highlighted... again why?

    I'd try updating using a .dmg installer downloaded from the Apple Website:

    Other people are reporting the same problem and it's been this way for weeks now.
    I must say that as a paying customer, I expect better from a company like Adobe.

    I have reported the issue to the web team. I'll rattle the chains again.
    Some clarification, the FuseTalk forums run on the ColdFusion platform, but are not an Adobe product. It is like Photoshop. It runs on a Macintosh, but it isn't an Apple product. It runs on Windows, but isn't a Microsoft product.
    Most folks here know that I'm pretty neutral about comparing the two forums. But I recently had to run some reports on them and activity is about the same on both, with the Macromedia Forums being a little more busy than the Adobe ones. Most people are comfortable with the system they know. At the time of the Adobe/Macromedia merger there were a number of performance issues with the Macromedia Forums. Most of them have been addressed.
    There was only one attempt to move from WebCrossing to FuseTalk, and that never saw the light of day. It was back in August 2006 and the project got killed before anything happened. I don't know where the comment about ColdFusion product managers wanting to use that platform for all forums comes from, I've never heard that internally.
    In October 2007 we imported all of the data from the Macromedia forums into Web Crossing and did release it for two weeks and that didn't work out well (a big understatement). It was so bad that most people who went through it have suffered some sort of amnesia. They seem to recall that we were moving the other direction (WebX to Fusetalk). But that is not the case. All forums were running on Web Crossing during that experience.

  • Including a date in a photo caption and being able to use the search function for the date

    I have included both a text and a date as part of the photo caption on each of my photos.   When I have attempted to search for a specific date or year, however, nothing comes up.   For example, if I search for my photo on "Fido 1985", I can find Fido, but if I simply enter "1985", I get nothing.

    Use Find >> By Caption Name or Note menu option for such a search.
    Thanks

  • When an album has multiple artist how can you make them show up on an iPod Touch 4G? I can find an artist using the search function but they don't show up in the artist view on my iPod. iTunes shows them OK when you sort by artist.

    Tech support seemed to understand the question but had no answer. Why would an album with only one artist show the artist but an album with multiple artist not show any of them. The album art show various in iTunes. That makes sense but on my iPod I would expect to see all artists.

    Wish I did. I tried the group function but that didn't help in iTunes. The search function is the best I came up with. I can answer the question do you have susch and such artist. But I can't browse for an artist I don't remember exactly or have misspelled. Fortunately I don't think I've bought anything from iTunes that i already had. If you can't see an artist it's possible you think you don't have something you actually do have. Sorry, still hoping for a better work around or better yet a fix.

  • Search function in the address field

    Previously when I wrote a word, for example BBC, in the address field, the BBC web site opened up immediately. Now it comes in the Google list so I have to click once more.
    How do I do to solve this?

    the doodles have nothing to do with it - they just appear when you hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button on google.com without having entered any search term. since the search function in the address bar is only triggered when you have entered a word/string etc. it doesn't apply here...

    Hey Reoh, 
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    If searching for files in Finder doesn't return any results, try using the steps in this article to reindex the Spotlight search index of your MacBook Pro hard drive:

  • HT1947 What happened to the keyboard search function on the remote app?

    What happened to the keyboard search function on the remote app? Was the only thing that really made it useful.

    I am having the same issue. I can see a dimmed keyboard icon on the top right of screen, but cannot access the keyboard to enter information for Apple TV 2. Is anyone else having the same issue and are there any solutions to fix the problem?

  • What happened to the search function on ipads?

    what happened to the search function on ipads?

    Ok, I agree it USED TO WORK that way, swiping down from the center. Now swiping down from the center with the newest CRAP iOS 7.0.4, all that happens is the notifications tab pulls down.
    I can see all the options for Spotlight Search in the General Setup, and have all of the search options enabled, but the old way (2 weeks ago) of getting the search pane DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE.
    Anyone have a clue where it went, or how to get it back, or enable it, or anything?  SIRI is clueless too. I say "Open Spotlight Search". She says "You don't seem to have an app named Spotlight Search"
    I can tell SIRI to open one of my 150+ apps WHEN ONLINE, but if I'm flying or out of wi-fi, and want to search my iPad, I need the spotlight search pane!!!
