I've disabled Spotlight for some folders with a lot of PDFs files that require a very high work for spotlight to index and I use EasyFind to quickly select all these PDFs to take a look at them.

I use this instead of uninstaller apps like app-zapper and app-cleaner. It searches the whole of my hard drive in a few seconds and lets me find literally all traces of an app, unlike the "uninstallers" which only search certain folders. 10/10

I use it daily, since spotlight gives crappy results since I have it turned off on some drives due to cpu clogging... this app is real fun! and besides runs on low memory!

What is EasyFind?

Think Mac OS Xs Spotlight could use some help? Download EasyFind, an alternative to (or supplement of) Spotlight and find files, folders, or contents in any file without indexing. EasyFind is especially useful for those tired of slow or impossible indexing, outdated or corrupted indices, or those just looking for features missing in the Finder or Spotlight.

Highlights:

Boolean operators, wildcards, phrases Extended Boolean operators, similar to DEVONthink and DEVONagent Immediate searches, no indexing required Finds invisible files and files inside packages (something Spotlight doesnt do) Displays the location of each file in a separate column Previews files using Quick Look (Mac OS X 10.5 or later) Provides contextual menus and services Supports drag-and-drop Very responsive, thanks to multithreading Uses very little memory

DEVONtechnologies LLC, headquartered in Coeur dAlene, ID, USA, develops AI-based document and information management applications and research solutions for Mac OS X. DEVONtechnologies researches in the field of semantic and associative data analysis and synthesis, and created a unique Artificial Intelligence architecture as the foundation of its applications.
