This expands the search area. The pop-up menus shown in the expanded search area are
used to narrow down, or restrict, your search to specific file types, file formats, date, size,
and other criteria.

By default, the Match pop-up menu specifies that all of the advanced search conditions
that you specify must be met, in order to display matching files. You can set the Match
pop-up menu to “any” if you want to display all files that match one of the specified
conditions.

Click the File Type pop-up menu, and choose Format.

Note that the right pop-up menu updates (AIFF is displayed) to reflect the left pop-up
menu selection.

Click the + icon to the right of the pop-up menu displaying AIFF.

A further set of search condition pop-up menus is shown below.

Click the File Type pop-up menu in this second row of search conditions, and choose
Length.

The updated right field and pop-up menu displays 30.0 sec.

6

Highlight the 30.0 field, and type 8.

Now click the search field, input the search term, and press Return.

A much shorter list of AIFF files, with a length of 8 seconds, and a name that contains the
search term is shown.

µ

Click the minus (–) icon beside the row.

This feature is handy when you’ve been a little too specific in your searches, and have
received no search results.

Note: The row is hidden and deactivated, rather than removed completely. It can be
restored by clicking the + icon to the right of the row.
