IWeb Spell Check stopped working

I just noticed that iWeb stopped checking my spelling. When I navigate to the spell menu, the "Check spelling as you type" item is checked. When I try to just spot-check my spelling, nothing happens, and when I click on the "Spell" button, nothing happens.
Does anyone know what is going on?
I updated my software this morning - could that have had something to do with it?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, reboot, repair disk permissions and try again.

  • Spell check stopped working

    What the heck?  Been using Pages for years,  now the red underline that shows me all my misspelled words is no longer there?  Help spell check!

    The language of text is part of the text's formatting, it sounds like you have copied and pasted text from somewhere else eg the Internet where it has different language attributed, or None.
    Select all the text and apply a language to it:
    Inspector > Text > More > Language
    ...and in future use Paste and Match Style so that inserted text has the same attribures as the existing text you are pasting into.

  • Spell checker stopped working, how can I fix this please

    Help please for above question

    Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?
    You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
    At least one dictionary should be installed and have a check mark to indicate that it is selected.
    *Open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.
    *Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu is check-marked.
    You can enable or disable spell checking globally:
    *Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"
    You can look here for dictionaries:

  • My spell checker stopped working. How can I restore it?

    I tried to find in Tools - Options - Advanced how to turn it on and off, but I cannot find it. How to make it work? Restarting Thunderbird used to help, but not anymore. All words are highlighted as misspelled.

    Press the F10 key to make the main menu appear.

  • InDesign CC - Spell check not working.

    I can purposefully type a misspelled word in InDesign and the Spell Check doesn't catch it. In fact it doesn't seem to work at all.

    Hi
    Could you please provide the following information which could help in reproducing the issue at my end.
    - Please provide screen shot of the dictionary preferences from following location.
       Mac : Indesign->Preferences->Dictionary
       Win : Edit->Preferences->Dictionary
    - Please confirm whether this issue is also happening with new documents? Can you attach an .indd document with some misspelled words which ID spell check is not able to find. 
    - Do you have previous version of InDesign installed on your machine ? IF yes, can you tell me which all older version of InDesign are installed on your machine ?
    - Please confirm whether Spell check was working fine for you in previous version i.e. in Version 9.1 and issue started when you updated to latest version i.e. ID 9.2.
    I really appreciate your cooperation on this.
    Thanks & Regards

  • My spell check only works for about half of an article. Is there a way to fix this?

    When I'm on a wiki, looking at an article, I sometimes see a couple spelling errors that just bug me, so I sometimes go in and fix them. However, when I pull up the editing page, the spell check only works for about the first half of the article. I can't find the errors if they're in the second half of the article. Is there a way to fix this?

    You can try basic steps like these in case of issues with web pages:
    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and the cookies from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Spell Checking only works for English after 10.4.9

    After installing and reinstalling (combo version) of 10.4.9 on my Intel MacBook Pro, the Spell Checking is working only for the English language.
    Seems that other languages are not installed (although they are at the spelling pop up). When I activate them, nothing works. No spelling as I type, no suggestions at the spelling window...
    Any one know how to reinstall only the languages?

    Nothing?

  • Hyphenation and spell check not working

    Hi there
    I'm having some issues going from CS4 - CS6, namely some functions that I struggling to get my head around.
    My main issue however, is that I cannot get hyphenation or spell check to work. I have my language set to English: UK, however every word is underlined in red. Placeholder text defaults to Hebrew, I can solve that by holding down the cmd key but I wonder if this is part of the problem?
    Hypenation is also not working at all.
    I have tried my settings on Hunspell, Proximity and User Dictionary, but I can't seem to get it to work.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Language is a character-level attribute and is not related, at least not directly, to the choice of dictionary in the prefs. The dictionary choice simply tells ID which of the installed dictionaries it should use for checking spelling and hyphenation when it encounters that particular language, but does nothing to set a language anywhere.
    Clearly your default language is set to Hebrew. To fix that you need to change the language with nothing selected. If you do this in an existing file, it will affect all new text in that file, but not existing text or other files. If you change the default language with no files open it will be set for all new files, but will not affect anything already existing. To change the language, just pick the correct one from the dropdown in the Character panel or Control panel.
    To fix existing text it's probably easiest to use Find/Change and search for the incorrect language in the find formatting and change to the correct language in the change formatting. You'll find the language dropdowns under Advanced Character Formatting in those dialogs. You can use either a GREP or plain text query, and you can leave the find and change fields themselves blank as long as you've included something in both of the formatting areas.

  • Spell Check Not working in Office 2013

    I can not get spell check to work at all in Outlook nor Word documents.  I need real basic instructions please.
     I tried this idea from a prior post, but there is no dictionary file to pick.  Any other ideas?
    If so, back up all these files. Add the custom dictionaries via:
    Click the
    File tab.
    Click
    Options.
    Click
    Proofing.
    Make sure the
    Suggest from main dictionary only check box is cleared.
    Click
    Custom Dictionaries.
    Click
    Add.
    Locate the folder containing the custom dictionary you want, and then double-click the dictionary file.

     I tried this idea from a prior post, but there is no dictionary file to pick.
    Are there any dictionaries listed in the Dictionary List when you click
    File > Options > Proofing > Custom Dictionaries? If so, please make sure the check boxes before these dictionaries are ticked.
    Do you mean the Spell Check not working as you type or after you click the
    Spelling & Grammar button?
    If you mean spell check not working as you type, please go to File > Options > Proofing and select the check box before "Check spelling as you type".
    If above didn't apply, please try to rename your Word template file (Normal.dotm) to Normal.old and then restart Word to check if it helps.
    In addition, we can also try to run a repair of your Office installation to check the result. See:

  • Why wont the spell check function work in a fillable form? Please help deadline looming.

    Spell check wont work. Have read through various internet help solutions but no luck so far.
    I have windows 7 64 bit.
    The forms are on a CD-Rom (from about 10 years ago) but I have up to Adobe date software on my PC.
    Edit-Preferences-Spelling shows I have English United Kingdom selected and the check box, check spelling whilst typing is ticked.
    When I press F7 and start it finds nothing even though I have made deliberate mistakes to check if it's working.
    Any help would really be appreciated.

  • Pages 08 Spell Checker Not Working

    When I started using Pages 08, I turned on the Spelling --> Check Spelling As You Type. One day it stopped to work, in fact I do not know whether it is working or not since the red lines that highlighted incorrectly-spelled text no longer appeared. I tried turning the feature on and off several times, and fiddled with Text Inspector, but have foind no solution to this. Please advise, anyone. Thanks.

    Repairing Permissions did not do anything for me. I have tried various and other sundry things as found in other messages about this major issue w/ Pages, but to no avail. Spell check works fine in other apps, TextEdit for example.
