If you start with this search and replace the Re: with words relevant to your issue you should get recent threads that have perhaps had some useful responses.

Both Gail's and tt2's suggestions are supposed to lead to only answered questions which are indicated by the GREEN 'balloon" icon - see the check box at bottom of the Filter column - BUT - as you can see, there are many more UNanswered threads than answered (the one I marked was the only one on my attempt)
The truth is, many questions are marked Solved by the OP that do not in fact solve the issue - AND - many questions that HAVE solutions are NOT marked Solved by the OP as they never let us know the outcome. Basically, even if the Advanced Search worked as advertised, the results are likely not as valuable as one might wish.
The BEST advice is - write a NEW Question of your own that is well crafted and includes as much detail as you can provide...
Here is what I post to all 'vague' questions:
Tell us a Story - with a beginning, a middle and end. We need to understand everything that you know and have experienced.
If this issue is new, tell us what immediately preceded its onset - add software, upgrade or update? New equipment?
Quoted from Apple's "How to write a good question"
To help other members answer your question, give as many details as you can.
- Include your product name and specs such as processor speed, memory, and storage capacity. Please do not include your Serial Number, IMEI, MEID, or other personal information.
- Provide the version numbers of your operating system and relevant applications, for example "iOS 6.0.3" or "iPhoto 9.1.2".
- Describe the problem, and include any details about what seems to cause it.
- List any troubleshooting steps you've already tried, or temporary fixes you've discovered.
