Search not working when searching media folder on phone

Hi,

When I do a search through DO and do a simple find to find some files (*.mxm) in the media folder of my Samsung Galaxy S2, DO does not find anything even though I know the files are there. The search is set to simple, wildcards are checked and no filters are on.

When I do the search using win explorer, the files are found no problem.

Has anyone else experienced this?

DO Version is 10.0.1.0.4192.x64

Thanks!

Are you using Opus's own Find functionality (Tools -> Find Files) or the Windows Search functionality (search field, top-right of the window similar to the one in Explorer)?

Just tried both - no results found.

I am beginning to suspect Samsungs driver - as although I can find the files using Win Explorer, I cannot delete multiple files at once - only one at a time. Still, that does not explain why I cannot find them in DO mind you :slight_smile:

Is it a real folder or some kind of virtual folder?

(e.g. Does it have a drive-letter that you can access and list the contents of via a Command Prompt? Open a Command Prompt via the Start Menu, then type "dir x:" where x is the drive-letter, assuming it has a letter at all.)

no it is a virtual folder - one that you "see" once you attach the phone to the pc. Its not an sdcard style folder.

I suspect Opus only supports searching real folders, but I don't know for sure. Contact GPSoftware Support (link in my signature) if you want a definitive answer.
