I really cant find a way to do this using NSPredicate...

I've been there a lot of times, i dont see a solution, what i see is:
"Typically all you have to do to convert the Spotlight query into a
predicate format string is make sure the predicate does not start with
* (this is not supported by NSMetadataQuery when parsing a predicate)."
tough (kMDItemTextContent LIKE[cd] "FooBar") is not the same as ((* =
"FooBar*"wcd)) || (kMDItemTextContent = "FooBar*"cd))
so no solution there...
