THE FIND DIALOG BOX
To launch SampleSearch™, double click on its icon in the Finder. Within a few seconds you will see the main 
find dialog like the one below. 
This dialog is asking for the criteria for the first list you will create. It has different sections for File name, file type, and category. It also allows you to specify which drives and ghost snapshots you want to search.

NAME
This element of the dialog allows you to optionally search for some text in the file name of each match. 

EXAMPLE: if you wanted to find all files on your drives which contained the word ‘Music’, you would enter “music “ into the text box. Note that the search is not case sensitive.

EXAMPLE: if you entered “music” into the file name box, you might find files with the following names:
- “my music box”
- “John’s Music”
- “London Musicians”

it would not find:
- “Science Museum”
- “Mosaic”

THE FILE TYPE
The FIND DIALOGUE has a pop-up menu containing a list of supported file types SampleSearch can find. Simply click on the title and choose an item in the list.
Press SEARCH. After a few seconds of searching a new window will open, showing all files that match your criteria.
