I have a fetchedResultsController that has returned all records for my entity “Account”.

I would like to quickly search all Account records for the attribute “lastName” == value, and give me back the Account object, or at least the indexPath of the object in the fetchedResultsController. There should only be 1 object returned.

Other than iterate through every objectAtIndexPath, is there a better way to search the fetchController using NSPredicate?

    mootymoots, just filter the fetched objects with another predicate…

    NSPredicate *lastNameMatch = ...
    NSArray *matchingFetchedObjects = [fetchedResultsController.fetchedObjects filteredArrayUsingPredicate:lastNameMatch];
    

    That leaves your fetchedResultsController results un-altered, but gives you an array with a match for the last name predicate.
