Hi all, I'm a Mac user of about a year and a half. I have noticed a few problems recently with Spotlight on my Mac Air.

When I search my computer for a file name that contains the word "Broadcast," for example, or has the extension .rtf the file I am looking for is not coming up in the results... at least not at first... after several more seconds, sometimes more recent documents are added to the search results, including the file I was searching for. But then a second or two later, the search results all disappear and the search begins again. It just goes on and on and on, continuing in a loop like this... searching and starting over.

Help! :eek:

Thank you!
