I thought...
... searching in Spotlight for files that were "changed today" without giving any other criteria would show me, well, all files changed today instantly. It just searches forever without showing me anything. Is this a bug? Or just a bug on my particular machine? Or am I missing something? Please _test_ your answer before answering me, because I think I _did_ try everything... :/ (I even added a "size bigger than 1 KB" rule just for the heck of it...)
(Solved in comments..., thanks!)
Comments:
okay. i guess spotlight was irritated somehow. i finally just ccc'ed the whole drive instead of just the new files, because i wanted to be sure. the reason: i exchanged my 60 GB drive in the macbook with a 100 GB drive. needed to back up my installation. now, after spotlight's reindexed the new drive, it works okay.
