Can't get spotlight to work properly - only searches some of the classes of available datga
Not sure why this is happening: Apotlight - for all users accounts on this machine - is not showing search results that should come from Events and Reminders (Calendar), Contacts, and Documents (and probably others...)
Yes these categories are selected / checked in each user's Spotlight preferences. I tried unselecting and then reselecting, to no effect. I also tried using mdutil to reset everything, all the way up to doing
mdutil -i off /
sudo rm -rf /.Spotlight-V100. (yes, this is where the database is found)
mdutil -i on /
mdutil -E /
No luck..... is driving me slowly crazy .... Is there something else I should try? Could any anti-virus stuff be getting in the way? I also can't honestly say when this started to not work ... I first realized I had an issue when I realized I could no longer search for events in the calendar app...
