I just find that I can't search for jpeg files in the Finder.

I am totally stumped.  If I try to search for a folder full of images JPEG, nothing doesn't come, no matter what terms, I used.  Anyone find this?  No idea why this is happening?  It's a quirk of the Mac?

I do not get this question at all.  I just did a search in a complete Finder of jpg file and I was able to use different terms to find some files.  Are you making sure you're looking this particular folder and not to the Mac?

  • How can I search for multiple files at the same time?

    In windows XP, after the advanced search mode, I used to be able to search multiple files simply by adding a comma between them like this...

    How can I do this in Windows 7?

    I tried to launch my Spysweeper and found that is not there, then I re downloaded and I could not install it because it was already on my computer.  I went to the control panel to remove and got the message:

  • How can I search for all files not containing a speific (_) character in a folder in Windows 7?

    How can I search in Windows 7 for all files not containing a speific (_) character in the file?

    I have two files with about 50 000 files in each folder.  There are many copies of the same file (only one folder contains photos, the other file has data files.  In the two files copies have the same name as the original file, for example IMG01, but identified for example IMG01_1, IMG01_2, etc..)

    I would like to find all files that DO NOT have a _ in them.  Can I do this?  How?

    Or I have to search for all files that have a _ by searching for * _ *?  Delete these files?

    I tried, but program trotted for 2 hours.  Just take a while?

    I thought that if I could search only files without the _ it would be more effective.

    Less than 20% of the files in each folder have not a _ in them.

    You should be able to use a? or * to replace a number of characters that are either unique or variable.  * book would find both book and facebook, or? ook would only book.

    Anyway, there's probably not a way to identify the files corrupted by a search.

  • How can I search for all files that begin with "~" with a tilde

    With Windows XP, it's simple. I would like to do a search for "~ *.» ' * ' and I want to find all files that began with a tilde. That no longer works. My computer is full of unnecessary files that I want to delete and they are not getting cleaned by the utilities that I have. Thank you

    If you actually surround the search term ~ *. * with quotes "~ *.» ' * ' it should work here.

  • Can I search for a word in the description of a bookmark?

    When I add a bookmark, I often add a description.
    Another reason why a lot of my favorites are the descriptions is that I am an old user of delicious and I imported these bookmarks in Firefox.
    So I would like to search for words that I wrote in the description, because the description is often more significant than the label, the name or the URL.
    But unfortunately Firefox does not resemble the description during the search in bookmarks.
    Nor find any extension.

    A backup of bookmarks HTML includes descriptions, so you could open such a backup in a tab and use the search bar to search the page.

    You can make Firefox create an automatic HTML (bookmarks.html) backup when you exit Firefox, if you set the pref to true on the subject browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML: config page.

    This backup is created by default in the profile as bookmarks.html folder whenever you close Firefox, but you can set the file name and the path through the pref browser.bookmarks.file on the topic: config page.

    The pref browser.bookmarks.file does not exist by default and you must create a new pref to string with the name browser.bookmarks.file and set the value to the full path of the file backup bookmarks including the name of the file.

  • Search for temporary files in the Expplorer folder

    I'm used to looking for all temporary files in file Explorer (such as ~ $areness_JPH.doc, ~ $areness_JPH.docx). I find with the stream "~ *.» "*" (quotes included).

    It works in certain drive/directory, but not the others. In general, this does not work in my partitioned disks as G:\ H:\ When I searched with "~ *.» "* ', I get all the files, which amounts to research" *. " * ».

    Clues? Thank you.

    I do not have the same restriction for some reason, I'm not, but I have the syntax, you can try.  Special symbols are not always easily available and may require the use of the special search syntax and quotes.  Since you are looking for the ~ always at the beginning of a file name, I would try the characters ~< which="" limit="" matching="" to="" the="" start="" of text="" (by="" the="" way,="" ~="">, with the arrow in the other direction, deadline for the end of the text, and ~ = is to match any part of the breast).  (The tilde in this syntax is coincidentally matches what you are looking for and are used for research in general).

    name: ~.<>

    If you want to use wildcards and search for symbols too, the syntax is just ~, but this requires also a complete match as if it was the "equal" sign =, so should be asterisks at the beginning and at the end of your search text to find partial matches.  (The "equal" sign requires a full match but does not allow for wildcards).

    name: ~ ' * exa! "improved."

  • How can I search for and work in the card module without losing my selection

    I'm going through my old photographs which predate the geolocation and adding my best guess as to their sites via the card module, but I'm frustrated.

    My biggest fear is selections.  In the library module, I look at and find a set of photographs that were taken at the same place and I select them.  I then go to the card module and move found, sometimes look, the place where the photographs were taken.  Now I'll return to drop the selection in the map and... OH NO.... There is no selection.  Double angst is I click back in the library and I scrolled to the beginning of my group of photographs.

    Deselect photos is the biggest mistake of the UI that Lightroom is making in this sequence.  I wonder if there is something I can do to avoid it being may have a second method of a quick temporary group of photographs.

    The other related question I have, is if someone has a suggestion of how to mark these photos as the type of GPS data.  for example, it could come from the camera, it could come through a trace log, or maybe it's just my best guess.  Maybe it is already possible to determine.

    When you find the photos you want to taken in one place, select them, then put them in a quick Collection (press B)

    Select the quick Collection, then go to the card with the film Module running. You will then be able to work ONLY with this series of photos that are taken in the same place

  • Search for all files? Search by creation date?

    How can I search within all files?  I know that the files are there and contain the words I'm looking for, but Windows cannot find them.  Some files do not have extensions, some have a .bak extension and some have various other extensions.

    Also, I see an option to search by modification date, but not created.  How can I search for all files on my hard drive, created on a particular date (including the .dll, .exe, etc..).  I'm trying to find all the files that were installed with an application.  The files have different change dates, but all have the same creation date (when the application has been installed).

    I do not understand how that returns results for all files (including non indexed files).  Can you please explain?

    The search interface has been simplified at the request of the overwhelming majority of users. Until a more sophisticated user, you liked the very high amount of control WHAT XP gave it. The new interface 7 has fewer orders. When the research opens, you will see an "additional search... "Computer" and other. Since you are obviously in control of syntax, the interface for non indexed opening files is quite simple. There is always the option to expand the index to include everything. (Control panel/Indexing Options)

    If your index still don't "look in" a file, you can try to assign an 'association' for the file type. I have no idea what the .xyz file type might have as a native association, but you can associate this notebook. (right-click, open with, choose default program..., see the box always 'use..')

  • How can I search for all photos that have names composed of four numbers?

    OT: Help search.

    Hello, I want to seek a photo (.jpg), photography is as the name of 5225.jpg, which consists of four digits. How can I search for all photos that have names composed of four numbers? Thank you

    I don't know how to search only images that carry the 4 numbers, but I know how to find a file that is exactly 4 letters long and ends with ".jpg".

    To do this, type this in your search box (exactly as it is, including quotation marks):

    "file name:"? "jpg"

    It will search for all files that have exactly 4 characters followed by .jpg at the end.
