How can I get iPhoto 08 to stop finishing my typing

When I type in a keyword on a photo, iPhoto completes the word or phrase for me and usually gets it wrong.  Then I have to do backspacing, or deleting and reentering, etc., and I'd love to turn that feature off.  Is there any way to do that?
Thanks!

To reset Event View, go to iPhoto View / select Sort Events / check By Date and Ascending.

  • How can I get firefox to stop moving the typing cursor to my homepages' search engine automatically?

    What usually happens is when I open firefox I'll usually start typing in the url bar or in the browser search engine to the right of url bar. The problem is that while I'm in the middle of typing, firefox will move my cursor to the homepage's search engine. This gets annoying after awhile because I'll have to stop and reclick where I was typing at (sometimes it'll even move it back!). Is there a way to disable this so that firefox won't try to relocate my typing cursor every time a new page loads?

    You can set to open a blank page on opening Firefox and click the Home button if you want to see the Home page. You can also click ESC to stop loading the page before typing in the location bar.
    Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show a blank page"

    Did you try shutting down the device? Resetting? Disabling iCloud? Disabling auto-update?
    I'd find the problem that is keeping the download from proceeding and fix that so that the process can finish...sounds like it may be your connection or a server issue, in which case you may need to wait.

    Or better yet, create and use new Apple IDs for others in your household. You could always use different Apple IDs for iCloud services (like iMessage and FaceTime) and iTunes and App Store., but it's even easier to share purchased content now with Family Sharing.

  • HT5129 how do i get iPhoto to stop bothering me with Mobile Me Migration windows when everything's already on my hard drive?

    how do i get iPhoto to stop bothering me with Mobile Me Migration windows when everything's already on my hard drive?

    Click "More Info", not "o.k.".
    Then open the iPhoto Preferences "Accounts" tab and remove the "Mobile  Me" account, if it is still there.
    Quit iPhoto.
    Check, if "Mobile Me" is still enabled in the System Preferences > Mobile Me panel (if you still have this panel). if yes, sign out.
    Log off and on again.
    Test, if iPhoto still is bugging you to transfer your Mobile Me content. If yes, you need to delete your iPhoto Preferences from your User Library.
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    And also remove the file
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto/mmsunset.plist
    from the Caches in the User Library - this file contain the end date of Mobile me.

  • I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

    I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

    There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
    Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
    Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads.

  • How do I get iPhoto to stop asking to merge MobileMe Albums?

    How do I get iPhoto to stop trying to merge MobileMe Albums?  I don't have any! I never did!!!  The problem is that each time I open iPhoto it wants to merge something that doesn't even exist.

    When the "mobile Me" alert panel appears, select the "Learn more" button, not o.k. Ignore the web page that will open,
    Then open the "iPhoto preferences > Accounts" panel and remove the Mobile Me account.
    Also open the System preferences , go to the "Mobile Me" preferences and sign out of Mobile Me.

    If streaming music when connected to your carrier's cellular network, it uses cellular data.
    Only the music you purchased from the iTunes Store can be streamed unless you have purchased iTunes Match.
    If there is a slow down at the server where the music is stored or high traffic, steaming can be paused. You can also download a song from the iTunes Store cloud to your iPhone so it doesn't need to be steamed.

  • How can I get iPhoto on my Mac to recognize my new iPhone 6?  (iTunes does recognize it!)

    I got one of the new iPhone 6s (the smaller version) and it's been working great.  I was able to restore an old backup from my 4S and transferred everything over.  iTunes recognizes the new phone and I've had no problems bringing files within apps on the phone to the computer like before.  HOWEVER, iPhoto doesn't even recognize the phone so I can't import new photos off the phone.  How can I get iPhoto to recognize it?  I tried searching for the phone as a drive via iPhoto and that didn't work either.

    So says my computer.  Honestly, I'm not tech-wavy in the least so I just take its word for things.

    I am running OSX 10.5.8 and I have iphoto 7.1.5  I just spent many hours creating a calendar.  When I went to purchase it, I got an error message stating that apple doesn't support calendar purchases in iphoto 7 any longer, and I need to upgrade to iphoto 9 at the mac app store.  Since I am not running mavericks or yosemite I don't have the mac app store, so how can I get iphoto 9, and will it even work with 10.5.8?

  • How can i get iphoto on my IPAD if i already have it on my macbook pro

    how can i get iphoto on my IPAD if i already have it on my macbook pro?

    See this page, if your iPad qualifies for a free download: Free Apple apps for iOS 7 compatible devices
    iPhoto on the iPad and iPhoto on the Mac are completely different programs. The Mac version cannot run on the iPad, because the operating systems and the processors are different. Don't expect, that iPhoto on the iPad will be able to do the same things as your iPhoto for Mac, pr that you can keep the two iPhoto libraries in sync.  
    Se this help page for a description, what iPhoto on the iPad can do: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/2.0/

    So my company decides to cut off my access to the iTunes Store. So I go in to Prefs and turn off all things iTunes Store related. I'm still getting a message saying it can't connect to the iTunes Store. How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect?

    Disable itunes store in preferences.
    It's also possible you have some podcast group trying to connect to iTunes if that's their source. Disable podcasts or at least set preferences to check for podcasts manually.
