Anyone else seen this bug? After working on the Mac for sometime I open Launchpad, type something and nothing happens. Log out / restart fixes it temporarily, till it happens again.
Yes I am having the same problem. A reboot will get it working for a while, then back to nothing.
I'm experiencing it too.
Same here on one of my Macs. Mavericks.
Launchpad is related to the dock.
Try doing a Dock restart using the following Terminal command:
killall Dock
Log out/in and test. If that doesn’t work, you need to look in your user Library/Applications Support/Dock for the .db. Use the Finder “Go To Folder” command. Enter ~/ Library/Applications Support/Dock. Move the .db to your desktop.
Then try a dock reset.
Applications/Utilities/Terminal enter the command
killall Dock
Log out/in test. If it works okay, delete the .db from the desktop.
If the Dock is the same, return the .db to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
Launchpad search stops working
