How can I eliminate the spell check in Firefox?

I do not want to have the spell check active when I use Firefox, how can I eliminate it?

You want to disable the spell check in forms (e.g., data entry controls like the one I'm typing in right now)? You can do this using the about:config preferences editor.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''spell''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''layout.spellcheckDefault''' and change it to 0 (''zero'') and click OK.
You're done, you can close that tab.
The change should take effect the next time you reload the form.

    How can I activate the spell corrector as I write in Microsoft word?

    Everything you need is in the Spelling and Grammar preference pane, within Word's Preferences.
    Check the boxes, "Check spelling as you type", & "Always suggest corrections".
    As well, there is a button for checking the document, called "Check Document", which you can use on an existing document that has not been checked yet.

  • How do I get the Spell Check to work. There is no drop down tab for spell checking in the edit tab.

    I do not have Spell Checking tab in my Edit tab. Firefox will underline a misspelled word but I can not access the spell check.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often

    I tried doing the following: When spell-checking is enabled, you can easily correct misspelled words. To correct the misspelled word, right-clickhold down the Ctrl key while you click on it and select one of the suggested words at the top of the menu.
    Believe this is for a PC. I have a MacBook Pro laptop. What do I do.

    how can I eliminate the distracting orangish AURA that encompass the sun on my sunrise photos

    Are you shooting raw?   With what camera?  And what version of Photoshop are you using to convert your images?
    Seems to me Camera Raw got a LOT better about developing images without that unnatural "aura" around the time they embraced a full floating point internal workflow...  As I recall that was Camera Raw version 7 (with Photoshop CS6).
    Assuming you're shooting raw and not using Camera Raw version 7 or newer, do you have a raw file you can put online somewhere?  I'll be happy to run it through the mill...

  • How do you change the Spell Check language

    I have a question, how do you change the spell check language so that it spell checks in a different language... such as French?

    Here is a copy of an e-mail that I sent to Yvan asking about this (translated from French):
    +Hello Yvan,+
    +I saw your answer SirCram's message (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7526551&#7526551) in which you showed a dialogue box called "text"+
    +Sadly, I have only recently started using a Mac (and I am therefore unfamiliar with Pages) so I find no way to open said box.+
    +Could you please make me a list of instructions or show me an Apple Support page that would assist this recent Mac convert in learning this simple action?+
    +Thank-you in advance,+
