STEP TEN (Playing Music or Movies within Spotlight)


It gets better. There's a built-in music player so you can hear the song right within Spotlight. The music player appears as a thin, horizontal, silver-and-black bar to the left of the song's info (after you've clicked on the tiny info button). In the music player on the left side, you'll see a small right-facing arrow, which is the Play button. Click on it and your music will start playing. (Note: If for some reason you don't hear the music, make sure your Mac's volume is turned up by going to the top-right side of your Mac's screen and clicking once on the little speaker icon. A volume slider will appear. To increase the volume, click-and-hold on the little slider button and drag upward. When you release your mouse button, the little slider goes away. There's also a volume slider in the Spotlight music playerjust click-and-hold on the little speaker icon in the left of the music player and a slider will appear.) So that's how you preview music. Movies work pretty much the same wayif you see a movie result and want to see a quick clip of it (to see if it's the one you're searching for), you'll do the same thing you did for musicclick on a movie, click the little "i" button, then click the Play button in the movie player that appears. (Note: To stop either a movie or a song from playing, click on the Pause button, which had been the Play button.)
