Identify mailboxes mailbox spotlight search

Hello

Does anyone know how to determine where an email is either the mailbox, when I got an e-mail using spotlight.

Spotlight is the email and I can open it, but then I must go in additional research position and find the box where it is stored.

I'm on OSX 10.11.5

See you soon

Tony

Hold down the command key and it should show a path that includes the account and the mailbox.

This will be the actual mbox file, but this should be enough identify the mailbox to mailbox, as shown in the mail.

  • IOS10 problem - cannot change a contact found using spotlight search

    IOS10 problem

    Not sure if there is a specific option that is put in place for that, but I noticed that I can't edit a contact found spotlight search as I used to do before the upgrade. Before, when you click contact, if the result of the research, I'd be on the real contact app and could then modify as needed. Now I see only the contact and start a call or message or a video, or post or share but not to change the real record!

    For me, it's a pain, because it forces me to go back to contact app, highlight the contact before making changes to this.

    I just reliased the same problem this morning and it's complete in the anus pain, why would you take a feature on, I use it everyday for work by adding in customer emails etc and now I have to go through contacts! :-(

  • How restore/recover deleted notes (which also appears in the spotlight search)?

    OK so here's what happened, I was normally using my iPhone 5 (ios 9.3.2) so I decided to go to the notes... and then all of a sudden the notes app crashed and when I opened it again, all my NOTES DISAPPEARED. I don't know what caused this problem, but I know that my iPhone had full accumulation in time.

    But when I tried to search for deleted notes, I noticed they were still burst into the spotlight search, but every time I press it, it just opens the notes app and that's all...

    Is there anyway to restore my notes, because they are very important... Any answer would be useful (I'm desperate)

    P.S. I do not have a backup icloud, or computer

    Without a backup, my hope for you is that these notes had been managed by an email service, and most of the time, they are even if the user is not aware of this. Check that all your related email accounts work correctly on your iPhone. If you have access to a computer, it can be useful to compare what is on your iPhone for what you see in your email account on the Web site of the account. So for gmail, you would go to gmail and access notes. Yahoo, you would do the same.

    I strongly suggest you keep regular backups for situations like this. Backup your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support

    If your notes are managed by iCloud, you can contact Apple for support and service - Apple supported. You can then ask to speak with security accounts and request their assistance in the recovery of all notes iCloud can successfully and have been deleted somehow. A backup is not required for this synchronization service.

    I realize see your notes in the Spotlight can be a head scratcher, but Spotlight is indexed to refer to files in their original location. Think of it as these shortcuts you can do on your desktop. You click on the shortcut and it will take you to the respective application that would hold this content. In this case, it would be the notes you see is empty. Spotlight, itself, is not keep these notes.

  • Get the path after Spotlight search

    When I find a doc via Spotlight search, I know that I can click on it to access.  But how to get the full path of the file so I know the exact path where the file is located?

  • How to get the button "Search Web" on all spotlight searches?

    I have an iPhone running iOS 9.3.2,and 6s and something that I noticed is that I no longer get the "Web search" button for all of my spotlight search. Here are some photos to show you what I mean.

    In this first photo, I typed in 'claire underwood house of cards' and should reach the "Web search" button at the bottom so that the query could be entered into Google as any other search. However, I noticed that this button is not pop up for stretched from the search terms such as "claire underwood house of cards" in the way which he used to. I don't know if this is perhaps the result of an update, but I don't see the button more. I could easily just go into Safari and type it in, but it is not as intuitive.

    If I type in a shorter like simply "claire underwood' search, as shown in the second picture below, I get a lot of results, as well as the button"Search Web". I used to be able to enter anything on stage and immediately search the Internet which is much faster. No idea how to solve this problem?

    Figured it out. For some reason when I got Bing Web enabled in Spotlight search results, it would not view long queries and leave the field blank. It turned off but kept the other apps I like to search and it works perfectly. I didn't care much for Bing, but it should be fixed. Now it makes it easier to just search Google directly from the home screen.

  • Spotlight search with iCloud problem

    I want to find emails and notes on my MacBook, I wrote about iCloud.  However on my MacBook if I do a Spotlight search in the iCloud word she includes all the notes, events, reminders, etc. which are saved on iCloud versus showing that the documents that contain the term iCloud.  He will show me the documents that do not have the word iCloud anywhere in them.  This seems to be a problem in OS X, because when I do a search on an iPhone it works correctly and it shows only documents or events that contain the word iCloud.  Apple, why have you implemented this way Spotlight search and plan you set?

    Thank you

  • Turn off Spotlight search in iCloud drive

    I have over 40 GB on my drive to iCloud and whenever I am connected to the Web, kernel task uses all CPU. I suspect that Spotlight indexes my iCloud drive and check, I tried to put the iCloud drive in the folder to be excluded but could not find a way. You know a way to disable Spotlight search in iCloud drive? Why is it not possible to use the index as it is and not having to constantly update :-(

    I doubt that the problem is caused by that, but it is not an area where I am all expertise (i.e., what I know).

    I could however add iCloud drive for exclusions of Spotlight. Use the menu go to the Finder and hold down the Option key to make the visible library; While continuing to hold down the Option key, click library. Release the Option key. Drag the folder "Mobile Documents" (which is the local copy to iCloud by car) from the Finder in system preferences > Projectors > Privacy window.

  • Can I restore a note deleted if it appears always in my spotlight search?

    Please be patient with me, I must admit from the outset, I have limited knowledge of IOS and how everything on my duties for the Ipad.

    Here's my situation. I was editing in a note above in my notes app and somehow one click accidentally deleted all the text in the note and therefore the note itself. The note was of significant importance. I mean, life turns on without her, but I really need this note. I immediately started searching to see if there was anyway to cancel the text deleted, but nothing I've tried has worked. I then looked to see when was my last backup and it was yesterday, but I don't know what time. I believe that the note was created before yesterday, but if my backup restored the note that he wouldn't of course understand the additions I made the remark today and I really like to get that support as well. So I did a spotlight search, and the note appeared in my search for spotlight. For a moment, I was very optimistic, but when I click on the note it immediately opens the application of note and the note does not appear here. So my question is, since the spotlight search shows that the note that this means that the deleted note is still somewhere on my Ipad and might be restored? Or is my best bet an Icloud restore backup and live with simply everything I wrote in the note today disappeared?

    Also, is there a way I can avoid this in the future? Perhaps a delete to confirm I can switch so he asked at least before deleting altogether?

    Thanks much for any help you can give!

    Have you looked into the recently deleted section Notes?

    Your last backup date and time will appear in the settings > iCloud > iCloud backup > on.

    Your best bet would be to restore the backup. What you see in the Spotlight search is the cached file. Some third-party software, might be able to retrieve the note, but I still think that restoring the backup, then adding your changes back would be the best solution.

    There is no way to stop what you were doing with iCloud Notes unfortunately from iOS 9.2.1. You get a warning on the Notes, but with iCloud notes if you tap the trash icon, the Note is deleted. Until Apple decides to add a warning before iCloud Notes are deleted, simply to be careful when you type and you select.

    All notes that are so important, can be copied and then kept as notes the so that they are also on the iPad when you remove icloud.

  • Spotlight search in compressed .zip files

    I was told that Mac, including users with the Mavericks can search files in compressed .zip files. I had an experience of zip files using the 'Compress' command of the Mac, then threw the original uncompressed files and emptied the Recycle Bin. Spotlight can't find the files in the compressed files that remain.

    I'm wrong about this capability in the spotlight?

    I don't see no settings of Spotlight preferences to choose the files compressed with an archive.

    Return to what you have enabled in system preferences: Spotlight: categories of search results. All mine are checked. Although I no longer run Mavericks, I know let me see inside Pages and MS Word .docx documents words (both zipped, renamed containers), and I could also see unique words within other documents zipped. I had all my categories Spotlight search Resutls checked in Mavericks and this continues in El Capitan.

  • Mail, Spotlight search, remove junk mail does not

    I checked all the possible solutions, and nothing helps. Junk e-mail is to stay within the box Junk mailbox. Nothing can not search in mail / Spotlight.

    spam should be moved to the Junk mailbox, either by drag / move, either by marking it as spam.

    Then you can CTL + click on a mailbox, then choose 'Clear' Junk Mail... form the pop-up menu window open.

  • Can I later change or add information used by the Spotlight search?

    In MS Office and Adobe, whenever I do a "Save as" or make a PDF of something via the print menu, a box appears and asks me for the title, author, keywords, etc..  The boxes are slightly different in Office and Adobe, but I guess it depends on the OS X Finder and is used by the Finder in the research.

    I realize often later I want to add or change something in one of these boxes, but I don't know where to do it. Anyone know?  Thank you!

    but I guess it depends on the OS X Finder and is used by the Finder in the research.

    These metadata are stored by the programs themselves. Programs may write some of them to the metadata of the Finder which Spotlight - 2016 desktop search. I don't know if Office uses the metadata of the Finder to fill in the Properties window, or if it stores separately, it writes the data in the metadata of the Finder.

    For Office documents, try the menu file, properties. Maybe it's different for other versions of Office. It's probably something similar to the Adobe docs.

  • You can display the spotlight search history?

    Is it possible to see what projector has sought on a certain date?  I know how to view the history of Safari, but I was wondering if there was a way to see what Spotlight had sought on a certain date - I think that someone was on my computer one day, I was not there, so I would like to see if something has been looked at.

    Projector does not work like that, (you can exclude only she searches for items)

    If you are worried, you can organize your Finder Windows:
