  • Versatile, powerful search app

    File Search Machine is a versatile, powerful app that quickly finds: file contents, documents, folders, photos, videos, audio tracks, applications, emails and other files, including hidden items. There are several customizable settings that allow for a targeted or general search. Some of the options include searching for All Words, Any Word, Phrase, or Wildcard Format. Settings in Preferences offer the option to choose between using Spotlight & Find, Spotlight only, or Find only. It's important to remember, the categories you select to appear in Spotlight Search Results (through  > System Preferences > Spotlight > Search Results) will impact your File Search Machine results when using the Spotlight setting. Once your first set of search results are presented, you can refine your search with another search string and select between three options (Everywhere, Name, Path), to narrow down your results, if desired. QuickLook offers a convenient way to view and locate what you looked for, without having to open Finder. There are numerous settings that impact the effectiveness and speed of the search. I recommend reading the description of File Search Machine posted in the Apple App Store to get a full understanding of what this app is capable of, and watch the Preview to see this app in action.
  • Doesn't Work - Poorly Designed Method of Interface - No Results

    Do not buy this, it will not give the results you're looking for and the Drag And Drop method risks you moving important folders to places they don't belong.
  • Works as advertised.

    The app speeds through searches -- it's much more thorough than just using Spotlight. Well worth spending a few pennies!

    Easier to use than Spotlight to find the documents you need. Has a preview window to faster find find the relevant documents when compared to using mac Finder. Recommended.

    Good for searching network as well as Local drives and folders. Found it fast on Spotlight-indexed drives and of acceptable speed on non-indexed drives and folders
  • Good option to Spotlight
