Check spelling while typing

Anybody know how to make sure this is on by default in Apreture (sic)? Can turn it on by right clicking or from edit menu or keyboard shortcut but next time open Aperture it is off again. It seems to be on by default in other Apple apps.

If you are referring to the Calendar>Edit>"Show Spelling and Grammar" pane, you may also want to check your System Preferences...>Keyboard>Text>"Correct spelling automatically" setting.

Check spelling while typing feature (in iCal) disables itself continuously

Hi there,
We use the iCal regularly to do write-ups for each appointment everyday. The past month or so I've noticed that everyday that I go into iCal, I have to re-check off the "Check spelling while typing" preference. Every day, I check it and then for some reason, it goes back to "correct spelling automatically" by some sort of possible default. We've never had that problem before.
Any ideas on a fix for this?
Thanks!

'Check Spelling While Typing' does not work for any applications

Earlier I had a problem with misspelled words underlined but when I right-click it does not offer spelling suggestions.
Now, none of my applications underline misspelled words. Even if I select the option to "Check Spelling While Typing" it does not change anything. This applies to all applications (Mail, TextEdit, EverNote, Firefox, etc).

Update: Inexplicably the underline for misspelled words now works but now when I right-click for corrections it shows 'No Guesses Found' for any word.

Disable the Check Spelling While Typing feature in Stickies permanently

hello. Each time I start up Stickies, I have to manually disable the Check Spelling While Typing feature anew. Stickies don't offer a preferences panel. Would there be any other way to permanently disable this?
thanks

How do I uncheck "Check spelling while typing" forever?

Hi, when writing in some applications such as text edit it automatically does a spelling check and underlines the words that are not spelled correctly with red. And every time I write something I uncheck this, because I type in both English, Swedish, slang... Etc. I just don't want this function. But then when I quit the application and restarts it, this option is checked once again. I can't seem to get it to be unchecked forever. I JUST DON'T WANT THIS FUNCTION!
Any help would be appreciated.

I disabled this as well, and it stays disabled. If you went to TextEdit->Preferences and unchecked the "Check spelling as you type" and also "Check grammar with spelling" then closed the preference, the plist file should be altered. After you have done this, check the plist file:
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.TextEdit.plist
It should show "Date Modified" as being the time when you do the alteration. Also, you might do a GetInfo on the file and see what the Sharing&Permissions say. They should be
yourname=Read & Write
everyone=No Access
If all that is true but it still isn't working, you could try tossing the plist file, relaunch TextEdit, and reset the preferences. A new plist file should be created.
Finally, I have seen cases where people having File Vault active have problems with plists not functioning correctly, and being reset to default behaviors after shutdown and restart.

IWork Pages ect. spell check while typing.

When I am using Pages, or any other program if I miss spell a word it gets underlined while I am typing. How do I make the correction while typing ? In other programs that I have used you would just dbl clicking the word and pick from a list of words to correct it. Is there a way that I can set up the spell checker to do this type of correction while typing ? I have the "Check Spelling While Typing" and "Correct Spelling Automatically" checked off to work.
Thnx for any help.

Hmmm, those settings should work.
Without Pages Running, move this file to the Desktop for now...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
Reopen Pages, set those settings again & test.

My mac apps won't check spelling

I have a MacPro running OSX 10.8.4. My TextEdit, Pages and other mac programs have stopped checking spelling. Yes I have checked to make sure that the check spelling while typing is checked. Any ideas for fixing this?

My TextEdit does not work, nor does the spell check in Mail. I have Mountain Lion 10.8.4 on my iMac 9,1, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. I have shut down and restarted.
I selected the Spelling preferences under "Edit" in both apps to Check Spelling While Typing, Check Grammar With Spelling, Correct Spelling Automatically. When typing in either app, Spell Check and Check Grammar doesn't work; I tried
Also when I selected Show Spelling and Grammar, the dialog box that should open up, doesn't---not in TextEdit nor in Mail. Check Document Now doesn't work.
I followed your directions to: 'go to System Preferences > Language & Text. Choose the "Text" tab on top, and check the spelling box there. Also check the "Region" ' That didn't make a difference either.
System Software is up-to-date.

IOS 7 'Check Spelling' red underlining disappears even if the word isn't corrected

In previous versions of iOS if a user misspelled a word and 'check spelling' was enabled in the settings menu, the misspelled word would be underlined in red and remain underlined in red until it was corrected or the message was sent. It appears that in iOS 7 the message editor will underline it in red initially and then it disappears once you start typing the next word. Is this a known issue?

Stollerd, I am experiencing same issue and I just spoke to Apple. They did not seem to have known about it, but now they do. They did read this thread and other threads while I had them on the phone. They did not have any solution at this time, but I asked them to make sure that the problem is recorded and escalated.
Just for the info: if they ask you to do some troubleshooting steps on your phone when you call in to report this issue - there is no reason to do that, because there is nothing that is wrong with your phone; the problem lies within the iOS7 and not your phone. I have access to many brand new phone units and I did some testing; no reason for you to repeat the same. If they want to try something out, they can do it with their own phones and find out the results.

After upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text

after upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text

Go to Settings>General>Keyboards>Predictive Text>ON. If it is on, you can toggle it off and then back on. The other method is to check in the typing area of the Messages app and it could be minimized. You would see a small line in the center just below the typing area. You would just need to put your finger on that small line and swipe upwards. But either should bring it back.

How Do I Hide Mouse Pointer While Typing In Firefox

Only in firefox, and only recently am I having problems typing anything through firefox, as the slightest touch of my laptops touch pad causes the mouse pointer to jump along with my typing cursor. This is causing major issues as I conduct all y business emails through firefox. If this cant be helped I will have to start using Internet Explorer Again. EVERY other program I use auto hides the mouse while typing, Except FF....
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Not sure, but I believe a week or so ago

I have had the same problem despite having Hide Pointer When Typing checked in Mouse Properties. Damn annoying. I thought I finally found a solution with a free utility called "Park Cursor Aside" at http://www.makeuseof.com/dir/parkcursoraside-hide-mouse-cursor-when-typing/.
Works great in Chrome and everywhere else EXCEPT Firefox. How about it Mozilla, are you are giving me another reason to switch over to Chrome? Please fix this. Thank you.

Quirk while typing in iMail

Hi,
So I just got the iPad Air and am running into this really annoying quirk.
While typing in portrait mode in iMail, the cursor has a tendency to skip to the bottom of the page, right to the end of the "Sent using my iPad" tag. This will happen three or four times in one email. Really frustrating.
Anyone know how to fix?

Hello jgerson
Check your finger placement on your iPad to ensure that there is not any unintentional taps to the screen and double check with the article below to troubleshoot issues with the touchscreen if it continues.

While typing in Contribute, Page disappeared. How do I recover?

While typing away on a major Page revision...the draft disappeared. There was no warning message...no back button. How do I recover that draft?

Hi Graffiti;
Thank you for your input.
Checked. I did not have Rollbacks (Tim Horton’s???) enabled...so assume I have lost an hours work. I’m obviously not impressed with the Contribute programmer’s that would allow this to happen...why not just a simple BACK button? I’ll talk to Adobe.
Thanks again...have a great day!

Touchscreen too slow while typing

Hey pals

on my old devices - z2, s4 - i had no problems with this typing speed... i cant even reply normally without being careful about my typing..
really, really annoying.
someone with the same problem here?

Reboot on safemode and check again

HT201178 when using apple bluetooth keyboard with iPad, hitting the enter/return key while typing in iMessage only adds another line not 'send' the message? is there a setting to change that somewhere?

Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.

Text selected while typing, history forgotten after hibernate

After hibernating/screen saver/suspend I get the following two problems:
1. While typing in address field and Google Search field, the text gets selected at random events, so that what I have typed is erased. E.g. I try to type "google", but after typing "goo", this gets selected, so that it is overwritten by "gle".
2. The URL history is temporarily forgotten, so if I start typing an address in the address field, I get no suggestions.
Both these problems go away after a few minutes, and return after the next screen saver/hibernate/suspend.
I am running Firefox 3.6.13 at Ubuntu 10.04. I have tried to disable all add-ons, without luck.

I checked this option - I disable HotKeysCmd - nothing changed. I did even more. I deleted everything on my computer which related to Adobe, and iven went to Program Files and cleaned it up. Then I restarted several time and everytime I did "disk clean up".
I reinstall the photoshop. "Enter" works woth comments tool, but not with typing tool.
At the adobe help I found that
iPress Enter on the main keyboard for new line and Press the Enter key on the numeric keypad to Commit Editing
I am using a laptop computer, and I have only one "Enter" button on main keyboard, but for some reason it works as "Numeric Enter",
and I do not have a "return" button.
