Search function does not work in a document, all the ideas of solution?
Nice day
I use Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2015 Release Version 2015.008.20082 l. Within the program I asked for updates, and he says that it is current.
The "Search/search" function does not work even when I clearly see the word I'm looking. Any ideas?
Thank you
Meredith
Hi Meredith,
Please confirm if you are using Acrobat or Reader?
Search function will not work if it is a pdf document scanned in image format, you must apply OCR on this file by using Acrobat to be able to search for text in the document.
Kind regards

Why the App Store search function does not work?
Since the iOS most recent update (9.3.2), the app from the App Store does not work on my iPhone-iTunes app works perfectly, the App Store - space wasted on the screen and memory right now. I tried to disconnect, close the software, restart hard to my phone, but all I get when I try to search is a white screen. I can't even comment to apple in the app because it does not work. It was a time where this kind of thing never happened but the versions of software with major bugs is becoming more of a recurring theme lately. I'm really starting to wonder if Apple jumps right away even the most basic of pre-tests prior to publication just to get out a release. Frustrating to say the least.
The search function on the App store on my phone work if something is wrong with your system. Try to reset the App Store in the following order:
Close the App Store completely from the window of the selector app by double clicking the Home button and slide up the App Store preview pane until it disappears from the display. Then sign out of the iTunes Store (in the settings).
Then perform a forced reboot. Hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Then reconnect to the iTunes Store.

The timeline of Google search function does not work in Firefox but not in IE
I use Google for searches. After receiving the search results there are additional options along the left sidebar. "Timeline" function takes the results of the search and sort them in chronological order and displays the results on a timeline. This feature is used to work well in Firefox. Now after receipt of search results when I press the option "Timeline" Google tells me that my search "did not match any documents."
I assumed the problem was with Google but when I finally tested in Internet Explorer, I discovered that the function of the chronology has worked well. The exact URL in Internet Explorer properly displays the results of the timeline sorted but when stuck in Firefox it produces no result.
Please explain what could be the cause or I might have to switch browsers that I wouldn't do. Thank you.
Here is year example of a Google Timeline search request that produces no. matching documents: "http://www.google.com/search?source=ig & hl = in & rlz = 1G1GGLQ_ENUS287 & = & q = mozilla + firefox + reviews & btnG = Google + Search & aq = f & oq = #q = mozilla + firefox + reviews & hl = in & tbo = 1 & rlz = 1G1GGLQ_ENUS287 & output = search & source = lnt & tbs = tl:1 & a = X & ei = W20_Tf_2OoragAeJ0LG8Aw & ved = 0CA8QpwUoBA & fp = d99ec83a3d63f24"

Hello
I use a PC (not a MAC). The document that I have a problem with emerged on a Word Document. I opened it using Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
When I tried to search for a Word, it worked. He scored the first word matching my search. As I pressed Enter to get results, he built a clear blue frame around large parts of the text presenting the result somewhere in the framework:
When more pressing enter, the frame moves to the right or expands, but no other match is found. I tried to open the same file with Foxit pdf and here the function works correctly (marking all the matches one by one).
Unfortunately, I can't tell all my customers to use Foxit. They all use Adobe and are complained about the search function.
The size of the document is 9,32 MB and contains 324 pages.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Yours,
Ula
Hi Sarah,.
We've fixed the problem. Where a person has the same question:
When you create a pdf file in Word (by "save under" and select 'PDF (*.pdf)' as the type of document)), you can click on the 'Options' button... "When you want to have a tree structure of your pdf file.
In the 'Options' dialog box, select "Create bookmarks to help: ' (I so always use 'Headings') and UNCHECK"Document structure for accessibility tags '.
Then you will have problems with the whitin your structured pdf search function.
It's a problem with Word.
Thanks for your time!
Kind regards

Search function does not work in Adobe Digital Editions
Hi all
First of all, I use a PC and I am creating a 'fixed provision' epub using Adobe InDesign. I have included pictures and buttons to navigate through the book, and everything works fine, until I try to use search in Adobe Digital Editions. The search function works fine in ibooks, then I tried to open it in any other ebook readers, which has blurred my text and images, this Adobe Digital Editions software did not. For this reason, I want to stay with using Adobe Digital Editions. All text is online, so I know this isn't the problem. I tried to save the file as a "Reflowable" epub, even though I know that this will not work for me, just to see if the search function would work, and he did. So my question is, why can I not use the search feature of Adobe Digital Edition with a provision fixed epub, and is it possible that I can fix it?
Thank you!
Kelsey
If anyone wonders, I found a solution to this problem, but also problems with fonts does display correctly in the Adobe Digital Editions software.
CircularFloBasically, you download the trial and it works with InDesign. It will also allow you to make a Kindle Edition, which is excellent. Basically you pay $99 for every epub to create it is less than 50 pages, and $199 you will get an epub with an unlimited number of pages. It also adds a lot of great animation features. I think it works well, and I hope this helps someone!

so far, I have not had any problems using search (command-f). But all of a sudden the box doesn't seem anymore and the menu dreamweaver is grey.
How can I fix? Should I reinstall dreamweaver? I have dreamweaver cc.
Hello Nancy
Thank you for responding.
I didn't know that. I remember well the manual does not mention that.
But anyway, I installed the new version of dreamweaver cc 2014.
Seems to work again.
The old version is apparently no longer available.
All the best.

The web search function does not work on FF15.0
Just took the 15.0 update. I can't enter in the search field
Yes, this is the search bar.
There was a change to the search bar in 15.0, the 'name' of the search engine is not clear until you type the first character, the cursor blinks behind the G in Google.
Another Firefox 15.0 user reported a problem with the theme they were using. Try the default theme and see if the problem goes away.

Windows 7 in the Explorer search function does not work
(1) I inserted a library to a project. This library is simply refers to a path on my hard drive
(2) since I can't search for files or folders in the linrary (in the library itself or normal
Explorer path). There is always a 0 result(3) in this 'library', I have subfolders. If I move a subfolder in another location on the hard drive, the research works
(4) is there a solution to this problem in the meantime (I know that other users have the same problem)
(5) if I use a shareware-Explorer, the research works
But I'm on windows 7 (windows 7 ultimate), so this 'simple' search feature is a WORK MUST!(6) I think that its all about the library feature that really works, then, how can I get rid of the wihout library
erase the existing roads on the hard drive? Is there an official statement for this?concerning
Peter
Hi Peter,.
Search in the new library or outside it should work perfectly well as in others.
Try the following steps to understand what could cause this problem.
Step 1: Run Troubleshooter
For your reference:
Open the troubleshooter for search and indexing
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-search-and-indexing-Troubleshooter
Step 2: Create a new library
Create a new library and include less fine test files. Now, look for a file in this folder. See if it works.
In case you need to reference:
Create a new library
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-a-new-library
Step 3: Verify mode safe
For more detailed investigation have a look if the result of the research work in safe mode. Post the return result so that we can help you with the same.
Start your computer in safe mode

Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.
Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.
This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:
-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded
on your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is
Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
This will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
you have.Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
Site of the manufacturer here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
REBOOT after each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
SCANNER - check manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
