Flowing Fix: Use Spotlight to locate file location

To use Spotlight to locate the location of a file on the Mac, do the following:

1) Open Spotlight, either by one of the following:
     - press CMD+Spacebar 
        or 
      - click the "magnifying glass" in the upper right of the screen

2) Type in the file name (or part of the name) that you are looking for

3) Click on the item in the spotlight list 

4) Press CMD   (at this point you should see a path box appear)

5) If you press CMD+Enter when an item is selected, a new Finder window will open showing the selected file in the folder location.
