Using Find

The Find feature locates any text in the built-in applications and databases, and in
some third-party applications. The Find feature performs an exact search on a
character string, including characters that are parts of words.

1. Press Option

, then Shift

to open the Find dialog.

2. Enter the text you want to find.
3. Choose OK to start the search.

To search by company for a
name you can’t remember,
open Find, and type the
name of the company.

Find is not case-sensitive
and it locates any word
that begins with the text
you enter. For example,
entering plan finds planet,
but not airplane.

Find searches through one
screen’s worth of
information at a time. At
first, you may see search
results from one
application, or several. If
you don’t find what you
need on the first screen,
choose Find More to check
other applications.
