Rebuilding search index?

$

Hi, I recently OCR'ed all my papers using Acrobat with the hopes that they'd become searchable in Mendely Desktop. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case. I can now select words for copy/paste, but Mendeley hasn't updated its search index to include all the new OCR'ed text. I tested this by selecting a phrase from a paper, then searching for that phrase in all my library. This paper did not appear in the results. However, when I open the paper and search for the phrase, Mendeley finds it within that paper. So I know the text is properly searchable and that Mendeley can find it, but it won't find it amongst all my documents. Is there a way to rebuild the search index? I tried a few things that I found googling the problem but nothing has worked so far. Thanks for any help!
