[QUOTE="krs, post: 1831559, member: 67742"] Thanks....but now I feel really stupid. When I look at the link you posted, even though it clearly says, "How to rebuild the spotlight index", when I follow the instructions I end up adding lacations that Spotlight will be prevented from searching. I read the instructions three times. What I get is in the screenshot below: When I click on the privacy tab, the window that is shown was empty. Then using the "+" sign, I added one of the folders I use a lot to save files (CaminoDownloads2) - except the way it reads now, that folder will not be searched by Spotlight.
