[QUOTE="Straitsfan, post: 1234774, member: 47577"] I entered the find command in Terminal to look for all the keynote presentations that started with the number 2011: [CODE] find . -iname "2011*.key" -type f [/CODE] but I got no results. The files are in there -- I can see them in the finder window. Can anyone tell me why it won't do this? If I just enter the command without '-type f' then it lists the files. Are keynote presentations not files or something? I'm in the correct directory as well [/QUOTE]
