Hello, my search doesn't work any more. When I click "All my files" in finder, it's empty. I've tried to add my hard drive to the Privacy window as others have advised, but I get a Privacy Error when attempting to add the hard drive, "The item couldn't be added or removed because of an unknown error."
The search also does not work in imail as well.
Running
OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
Server OS
Any thoughts anyone?
My question was whether you could modify the Spotlight privacy settings in safe mode.
I apologize Linc. Mac user for 1 year now. Very PC knowlegable. Still getting there.
I am able to add the Mac hard drive to the privacy window now in safe mode.
I'll wait for your next steps.
Thanks again for all your attentive help Linc.
Ok, so I was able to add the Mac hard drive to the Privacy window, but after a restart, not in safe mode, the hard drive is not in the window anymore.
I also still have 0 items in "All My Files"
I am still getting the Privacy List Error when trying to add the hard drive.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.

Please read this whole message carefully, especially the warnings, before doing anything.
1. The changes to your configuration suggested here should be considered provisional; they may not solve your problem, or they may remove functionality that you find useful. If a third-party system modification that you want to keep is causing the problem, seek help from its developer.
2. WARNING: Back up all data now if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to its present state, even if it becomes unbootable. If you’re not sure you can do that, STOP — DON’T CHANGE ANYTHING. If you’re dissatisfied with the results of the procedure suggested below, restore from your backup. I will not be responsible for the consequences, and I will not be able to help, if you ignore this warning.
3. You should either remove or update the following system modification(s), if an update is available from the developer:
Parallels
and definitely remove at least the following:
AirParrot
AirServer
Attachment Tamer
Nalpeiron ProTec
NexDef
† SIMBL
Soundflower
Splashtop
4. Whatever you remove must be removed completely, and (unless otherwise specified in this message) the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job. I can't be more specific, because I don't install such things myself. Please do your own research.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
Again, please don't ask me to do this research for you. You can do it better than I can, because I haven't installed the product and I may not even know what it is.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
WARNING: Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.
5. I recommend that you never reinstall the modifications marked with a dagger (†) above, if any. If your problem is resolved after uninstalling all the above modifications and rebooting, but you still want to use some of those not marked with a dagger, you can experiment with putting them back, one at a time, testing carefully after each step. Keep in mind that system modifications may be incompatible with each other or with future OS X updates, so it may not be clear which one is at fault.
6. If you still have problems after making the suggested changes and rebooting, post again. Remember: if you don’t like the results of this procedure, you can undo it by restoring from the last backup you made before you started.
Uninstall SIMBL as follows. Back up all data before making any changes.
Select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar, then enter the following text in the box that opens:
/Library
A folder will open. From that folder, delete the items listed below (some may be absent.) You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Log out and log back in.
Make sure you never reinstall SIMBL. It’s likely to come bundled with another third-party system modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions.
Is there anyway to find out what the SIMBL is bundled with?
Only by examining the installers of all the modifications.
I'm giving up Linc. I've removed apps that I felt I could live without for a moment.
I'll just continue to blame Apple for making things extremely difficult to fix simple things. Like uninstalling programs, why so many ways to just uninstall?
AirParrot
AirServer Too Bad, since this allowed sharing from other devices to my imac.
Attachment Tamer - This is because Apple Mail doesn't handle attachments correctly.
Nalpeiron ProTec - This is needed for plugins for Photoshop. Not going anywhere.
NexDef - Never knew ESPN would have malicious software.
† SIMBL
Soundflower
Splashtop This is a shame. Now how do I access my computer while on the road and do work?
I'm still firm in the belief that this has something to do with Lion Server and it's permissions.
Thank you all the same.
I'm running ML server, and Spotlight works fine for me.
Try checking for and manually resetting the drive's spotlight index. To do this, open the Terminal utility and run the following command to check for the index:
ls -la / | grep SpotlightThe output of this command should look like the following:
drwx------ 5 root admin 170 May 8 2012 .Spotlight-V100Even if this shows the spotlight index is present, you can try manually removing and resetting it by running the following commands:
sudo mdutil -E -i off /After running this command, run the following command to delete the Spotlight store directories (be absolutely sure there are no spaces between the slash and the ".Spotlight" text before executing this command):
sudo rm -rf /.SpotlightFinally, re-enable spotlight by running the following command:
sudo mdutil -E -i on /With this command run, check the spotlight menu to see if you can see an indication of the system building the index (ie, a progress bar). This may take up to a few hours to complete, but afterwards see if Spotlight works and if All My Files and other search search options properly show files.
Dude, Done!
This solved the problem! All files have reappeared! My email is also indexing! Many thanks Topher!
Sure thing! Glad it wasnt a deeper issue. 🙂
I tried all the steps, but when I did the very last one, it said "Error: unknown indexing state." How do I get around this?
can't index files
