No i have not tried that, so do you think you could give me some hints on how to do that? Thanks
Go to System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy, and click the addition symbol and add your system's HD (originally named "Macintosh HD"). After several moments remove this drive from the privacy list.

Spotlight should start to re-index your drive shortly thereafter.
