Hi Dick

Many answers to Mac OS X can be found at Apple Support site:

And on Discussion boards:

Not sure what you have tried so far...

Sounds like you have added your hard drive to privacy do not index  
list in the Spotlight preference (inside System preferences).

Note... if this is the case it will have to re-index you hard  drive  
which will take sometime. Do expect it happen instantly.

Hope this helps!
