It appears you did a Find All in Current Document. For this search to find hits it doesn’t matter what the current caret position is.

When you tried replace, your caret was further down in the file and no hits occurred between the position of the caret and the file’s end (the error message told you this: no occurrence was found from caret to end-of-file).

Solution for replace: Either move the caret to the top of the file (Ctrl+Home), or checkmark the Wrap around checkbox, before pressing Replace.
