Spotlight (Not Responding)

Recently when I try and open something using spotlight, as soon as I hit enter to open the item, spotlight freezes and I get the spinning ball. In the activity monitor it also says spotlight (not responding)

 

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Back up all data.

Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C: 

/var/db/CoreDuet

In the Finder, select

          Go ▹ Go to Folder...

from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

A folder named "CoreDuet" may open, containing one or more files with names beginning in "coreduetd." Move those files to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and test.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:

☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)

☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages

from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select

          View ▹ Show Log List

from the menu bar at the top of the screen.

Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

Some private information, such as your name or email address, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Thanks for the response. When I try to launch an app from the spotlight here's what I get.

This worked great. Thanks for your help. Rock on!!!

Thanks much! Solved my problem.

Thank you - this also solved my problem.  Very grateful.

This solved my spotlight problem hanging any time I was trying to include additional search criteria, on Yosemite MacBook Pro 2014. Thank you so much.
