Why is spotlight indexing not starting?

In spotlight, it states that it is estimating index time. This message never disappears. In a similar thread, somebody was advised to post the following code into terminal;
syslog -k Sender mdworker -o -k Sender mds | grep -v boxd | tail | open -f -a TextEdit
The resulting text allowed the answerer to determine that there was a corrupt font file. I also put the code into terminal and this was the resulting text;

Can anybody help me find out what this means?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Why my spotlight can not find my personal files ? It can find them before but can not find them now,I want to know why?

why my spotlight can not find my personal files ? It can find them before but can not find them now,I want to know why?

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Spotlight ▹ Privacy
The list of items excluded from Spotlight indexing is shown (it may be empty.) Click the plus (“+”) icon to add an item to the list. Select your boot volume (under DEVICES) and add it to the list. Then remove it from the list by selecting it and clicking the minus (“-“) icon.
Spotlight will rebuild the index. If you try to do a Spotlight search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, a pulsing dot will appear in the icon. When the dot disappears, the indexing is complete.

Why does Vine Server not start with this script and work with the other?

I have the preferences of Vine Server set to start/run automatically when opening the programme.
If I double click the icon it works. Opens and starts.
If I use
activate application "Vine Server"
it opens but does not start.
If I use:
tell application "Finder"
activate
open application file "Vine Server.app" of folder "Vine Server 3" of folder "Applications" of startup disk
end tell
it opens and starts.
Anybody any idea as to why?
This seems to happen since I upgraded form 10.4 to 10.5.

Hello
Do you have multiple versions of Vine Server application, perhaps?
If so, that might cause the described behaviour.
You may try using full path to the current Vine Server application such as -
activate application "/Applications/Vine Server 3/Vine Server.app"
or -
tell application "/Applications/Vine Server 3/Vine Server.app" to activate

Why does nidevldr service not start reliably?

nidevldr service does not start (consistently) after reboot. We are running TestStand 4.2.1 on Win 7, 32 bit.
National Instruments mDNS service starts after reboot, but stops shortly thereafter. As we understand it, the NI mDNS must be started in order for nidevldr to start.
Both services are set to automatically restart after 1st, 2nd & subsequent failures per NI Document ID: 4BHID6DE.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Aside from the cases mentioned in the 4BHID6DE document, It's possible that there is a firewall or antivirus software that is restricting this service from running properly. If you have any of those configured they may be worth adding exceptions to.
But, as Doug mentioned, this probably isn't the best place to pose this type of question as this forum is focuses on TestStand questions. I would actually recommend posting in the Multifunction DAQ (https://forums.ni.com/t5/Multifunction-DAQ/bd-p/250) forums, as they rely more on the device loader service for troubleshooting DAQ hardware.
Hope this helps!

that's ok..
the .ICEauthority was the file which needed a chown/chmod to let me go into kde.. but it's ok i guess, since you don't have it.

I don't really use the root account for anything, only the very necessary stuff..

Why does setup assistant not start?

I fully chraged the iPad but when I try to start it, and expect the Startup Assistant to appear, only the iTunes logo appears. This does not clear. How can I get the startup assistant to, well, start?

Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes - if it does not start on its own. That is what the logo on the screen is telling you to do - connect to iTunes. Once iTunes starts, it should instruct you in the step but step activation process.

I guess it will not sort in case of single value as opposed to select from the table subquery expecting multiple rows and has to sort for the final result.

Automatic indexing not starting - UCM/WCC 11g

I have an instance where new content is added but the Indexer does not recognize them and index them as part of the Automatic cycle. But if I press the START button for the Automatic Cycle it does and proceeds to index them. The check box on the CONFIGURE pane has been tried both checked and unchecked but the response is the same. The total collection is less than 100 documents, the Batch size has been tried at 1,5,25. No errors are thrown in the CS logs.

Why is spotlight indexing endlessly?

For days now, I haven't been able to search for anything using spotlight because I get the message, "Spotlight will be available as soon as the contents of your have been indexed. Estimated indexing time" ................. . It gives me nothing. Just works and works seemingly endlessly doing seemingly nothing.
Help?

Greetings,
Are you running BootCamp or do you have any non-Macformated drives attached? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3640
If that is not the case something may have gone wrong in the indexing process and it is not finishing.
SafeBoot: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
Restart as normal
Reindex: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2409
Leave the computer on and allow it to complete. Keep in mind that the more files you have on the system, the longer this will take so it may need to run overnight.
Hope that helps.
