This seems obvious but make sure that Library is selected in the
Collections pane on the left of the Yojimbo window. Otherwise Yojimbo
searches only the selected collection which may not contain what
you're looking for.

This doesn't directly answer your question but for searching Yojimbo
via Spotlight, I use MoRU which is an excellent shareware interface to
Spotlight. Searching Yj via MoRU/Spotlight is wickedly fast--much
faster than using Yj. I set up a smartgroup for Yojimbo items in MoRU
and assign a hotkey
Here's an Automator workflow that should do the trick.
http://automatorworld.com/archives/convert-images-to-pdf/
Unzip the workflow, then drag and drop your images to the workflow's
icon. Converted PDFs will be put into the same folder as the original
images. This workflow produces a single PD
e contextual menu by selecting
files in the finder and control-clicking. You can get the workflow

I had the same problem recently. You should contact Bare Bones
support about it. I did and they gave me a terminal command to
execute to force Yojimbo to repair the database which seems to have
fixed the problem. You can reach Bare Bones support at

The Enter key on my iMac does the same thing. Yojimbo exhibits the
same behavior as iTunes in this regard. Hitting Return opens the item
(or plays it in iTunes) while Enter allows you to rename the item.
However, even Apple isn't consistent on this. In iPhoto selecting an
album and hitting Enter

I've got the same issue and have also wished that Yj had better
support for file attachments. This is do-able with a text note in Yj
however. What I do is to attach the file (via drag and drop) into a
text note. It will show up as an icon in the Yj note. However, you
can't ctrl-click on it for a

Yojimbo but I don't want them stored unencrypted in the comments

So I store everything in a text note and use collections to organize them.

Yikes! You'd have to re-create a lot of the Yojimbo functionality and
reverse-engineer their schema among other things for this work
properly. Why not just use Webjimbo?

I was unaware of the restriction regarding Yojimbo and Time Machine.
Fortunately I haven't upgraded to Leopard yet (but had planned to do
so now that the 10.5.2 update is out and in fact have the Leopard box
sitting on my shelf). Time Machine was one of the driving reasons for
me to upgrade to Leo
on live data.
Thankfully the days of "they system is down for backup" are long gone.
Whether I use Time Machine or I use Super Duper or Chronosync or
something else, I'm certainly not about to take my machine offline or
logout to do the backup.

In Yojimbo I can see what collections an item is in with the inspector

Yes, both scenarios are do-able. If you drag a URL to Yojimbo and

I too would really like to see true Smart Folders in Yojimbo and have
mentioned it to the developers before. I'd also like to be able to use
criteria such as Encrypted/Not Encrypted, etc. for sorting into the
Smart Folders
As others have suggested, I recommend Yep for PDFs. I would not store
PDFs in Yojimbo. Yep stores the PDFs in the filesystem so your
changes would get saved to back to the original file. It functions
much like iPhoto does but for PDFs. For more general file
management, you might look at Le

In other words, I want to be able to have multiple self-contained
library databases.
You might want to try Eagle Filer: http://c-command.com/eaglefiler/
It is similar to Yojimbo but supports multiple libraries and nested
folders. It also stores its data as regular files in the filesystem
