I haven't noticed exactly when it happened but previously I was always using spotlight to run Xcode. Now if i'm typing "Xcode" in it, only folders containing this name show up, or some xcode projects, not all though. I've tried search in finder and even choosing kind of files - Application, still no luck. Did Anybody face this problem before?

does it happen only with xcode? – Anonymous Nov 27 '12 at 11:45
it looks like only to xcode. other apps that i run through the spotlight (like Chrome, Pages, Terminal, TextWrangler, etc.) are working fine as it was before. – peetonn Nov 27 '12 at 15:17
i think that has happened after some xcode update or so... – peetonn Nov 27 '12 at 15:17
