To derive Anderson localization of light is one of the holy grails of our time. I show in this talk theoretical results derived by Vollhardt-Wölfle theory of photons in a novel time dependent approach. The results are given for 3D disordered, finite sized real world systems of poly-disperse powders consisting of TiO_2 Mie spheres. Signatures of  Anderson localized states, namely interference effects, are determined and they can be clearly distinguished from long living light-matter bound states as well as frequency converted photons and losses. Influences of different types of non-linear effects are discussed.
