| Quick and Easy Spotlight Searches |
|
|
The search capability in every application or window on the Mac is powered by a built-in application called Spotlight. In Address Book, select a person's card. Then hold down the Control key and click the person's name; you'll get a contextual menu in which you can choose to Spotlight that person. Every email message to or from that person or in which that person is mentioned will be found, plus every relevant file on your Mac. In Safari, TextEdit, Preview, or in any Mail message, Control-click to get a menu that includes an option to "Search in Spotlight."

"Your manual backups saved our Job Printing History File. Yesterday we had a power bump and our Filemaker Server went down. The Job Printing History database was damaged and had just 8 files in it when it came back up. I went to your manual backups to recover the file and it was there safe and sound." Jenny Helmer - Beldenville WI |
