Search Network volumes on OS X

To index Network volumes go in to the terminal app and paste this in:

sudo mdutil -i on /Volumes/volume_name

That should work but might take a while to index that network volume.

Also if the volume name has a space in it try adding “\” before the space in the file name. If this still doesn’t work you could try placing “quotes” before and after the volume name as well.

Good Luck.
