64-bit Spell checker in OPPM v9-Sp1 works, but need Custom Dictionary

My client adopted Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management (formerly ProSight) -- which is NOT P6, a couple of years ago. It entered production with v.8.0 which had a spell-checker included but which does not work with the approved 64-bit O/S (ie: Windows Server 64-bit). After being disappointed with the v.9.0 release also not supporting 64-bit O/S, the recently released v.9.0-Sp1 finally does. Good news!
I have the instructions (“Primavera Portfolio Management 8.0 Customizing the Spelling Checker.pdf”) for adding a custom dictionary to the system, but cannot find any information on doing this for OPPM v.9.0-Sp1.
Does anyone know if the same instructions still work, or where I can get new instructions for adding a custom dictionary (to avoid having the users need to add many new terms, including their own misspelled ones)?
Thanx in advance.

Hi Sachin:
Actually, after my message yesterday, I managed to find the document, buried in with the OPPM technical docs. Looks identical to the OPPM v.8 version. Thanx for your help.
Now that I have poked around a little more, I realized that I haven't seen anything about how to EDIT the dictionary files once created. How does one clean them up of accidentally (or unintentionally) added mis-spelled words? Every other application I've ever used with a spell checker has that function somewhere, but I can't see it in OPPM.
Any info on this issue? Thanx in advance.
Rob

Hi, can someone please tell me why the spell check in pages doesn't work. I went to preferences and enabled this auto spell checker and have set the language to british english. But still it doesn't work while it works perfectly in TextEdit.

Inspector > Text > More > Language
Only applies to selected text, like making it a particular font.
It is not a setting that sticks. If you continue to paste in text from elsewhere particularly the Internet it will have a different or None language set to it. You need to select it and make it B.E.

Spell Checker doesn't seem to work in 4.0

When you enter information into a box like this one, the spell checker doesn't seem to work. I was wondering if it was missing, not being put in, or if I need to add it somehow. If its not their, please put it back in again. I myself really need it.

did you get my earlier message? Here's what I wrote;
I also meant to add the way the instructor for the course showed how to
write the code
for example; home_btn.addEventListener(Mouse...................) as so
on You mention no period after the btn unless a width or something how
could I change the code to be proper.
and also one for {
content_pg.gotoAndStop(2);
same period example. should there be a space and no period after home_btn?
thanks again for your assistance.

Have IOS5 and new Pages version. Spell check in French does not work

Pages works fine on my IPadI, but how can I get it to spell check in French, used to work fine with other version.
Checked my preferences on my IPad, they are french. What to do?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Checked and yes I did have Pages in French and had the French keyboard checked on my IPad preferences. Your suggestion reminded me of that "world key". Read something about it, long time ago. Never used it before but when I taped it, it brought me a choice of keyboards, so now I can go back and forth from English to French on my Pages texts, and all that without going back to my system preferences!
Thank you for the comment, helped jog my memory.

The Firefox spell checker has the option for me to add custom words to the dicionary. Please tell me how to delete a word from this file of custom words because a mispelled word got in there by mistake.

I want to know how to delete words from the custom dictionary in the spell checker that I put there by mistake.

In your profile directory, the file is '''persdict.dat''' and you should know how to get to your profile. One way is to enter '''about:support''' in the location bar then click on "Open Containing Folder". Or go through the Help menu > Troubleshooting Information > ...
You can edit with wordpad, or notepad++, but not with notepad,
because there is one word per line and you will not see that in notepad after Firefox has updated it.  Update after closing Firefox.
I will have to change my Spell Check documentation to not suggest notepad

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.
* 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:
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/language-tools/

InDesign CC spell check "ignore all" doesn't work

Is anyone having problems with "Ignore All" not working in spell check? I am repeatedly being prompted to check the same word or abbreviation again and again.
Just to be sure it wasn't a result of hidden characters or other variables, I have copied several text frames and spell check prompts for the same terms in both text frames even after clicking "ignore all" for each word the first time through.

I too started having this problem just this week.
I use ID to create user's manuals in which a product model number will show up at least 5 times per document. The "Ignore All" button in spell check has always ignored all instances of a product model number until now. I've noticed that "Ignore All" does not work on any repeated words in any of my documents. I'm not sure what has changed that caused "Ignore All" to stop working.

Spell checker for KWrite doesn't work [SOLVED]

How do I enable spell checking for the KDE editors, i.e. KWrite, Kate, etc? I've installed aspell via pacman, it's in /usr/bin which is in my PATH. In KWrite's Settings>Configure Editor>Plugins, there is an option "KTextEditor KDataTool Plugin: Enable data tools like thesaurus and spell check (if installed)" which I've checked. In another distro, that's how I enabled spell checking with aspell, i.e. by checking this box for the spell check plugin. But in Arch this doesn't seem to be sufficient. When I try to spell check a document in KWrite, I get this error:
"The spelling program could not be started. Please make sure you have set the correct spelling program and that it is properly configured and in your PATH."
What else do I need to do?
Robert
EDIT: Sorry, searching this forum for "spellcheck" hadn't yielded any solution but after I posted this I also searched for "spell AND check" and found the solution: I had neglected to pick Aspell as the client for spell checking in Control Center>KDE Components>Spell Checker.

Spell checker error: null cannot be parsed to a squiggly dictionary

I organized a spell-checker with help Squiggly in my app ( http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/squiggly/).
_newdict.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleLoadComplete);
_newdict.load("dictionaries/en_EN/en_EN.aff", "dictionaries/en_EN/en_EN.dic");
Everything works fine when the dictionary files is in the same folder as the app. But the dictionary have large size (over 5MB). Therefore load it on user demand. Files can not save the program folder, but only application Storage Directory.
However, when initializing the dictionary there is an error: null cannot be parsed to a squiggly dictionary. I've tried both ways: file1.nativePath and file1.url, it is still the error.
var file1:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("dictionaries/en_EN/en_EN.aff");
var file2:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("dictionaries/en_EN/en_EN.dic");
if (!file1.exists || !file2.exists){
    //download files from the server
} else {
    _newdict.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleLoadComplete);
    _newdict.load(file1.nativePath,file2.nativePath);
   //_newdict.load(file1.url,file2.url);
Tell me how to solve the issue, please?

Subhranshu,
Remove the CO extension and check whether it still throws the same error, or it throws the error when u extend the CO.

I have just downloaded fire fox on to my new computer, and although the spell check box is ticked in the options menu , I can't get spell check to work, can anyone help me?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Not all locales come with a dictionary installed for licensing reasons.
If you do not have the en-US locale then check that you have a dictionary installed (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and selected.
You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the ''Languages'' submenu.
Also make sure that [[X]"Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a tick.
You can also try to toggle the "Check Spelling" item off and on again.

Spell Check with All Caps Not Working

I feel like i'm missing something that should be pretty easy. I've searched both in the forums and the help file for pages 09, but can't seem to find it. so maybe i'm missing something fairly obvious...
but, i can't figure out how to get pages to do spell check on a word that is in ALL CAPS. For instance, if i type 'bddy' it shows up with a red-line underneath it, but if i type, "BDDY" there is no red-line.
how do i get it to stop skipping the words in all caps?

There's also no mention of this in the Pages '09 User Guide, which I'd go to before the Pages Help files.
Looks like a design choice to assume that anything that is ALL CAPS is to be treated as an acronym.
Your choices seem to be:
1. Don't use all caps, except for acronyms, and check closely that you make no typos in acronyms.
2. Use lower case for acronyms so that the spell checker will flag them. Replace with ALL CAPS when you do a final spell check. (Acronyms that form properly spelled words will need an extra character added to cause the spell checker to flag them.
3. Copy the text you want to check and paste it into an application that will flag acronyms. For word processors, this seems to require one that uses its own dictionary rather than the Mac OS X dictionary.*
4. Do your writing/editing in a word processor fitting the description in #3. Transfer the text to Pages only for formatting (or not at all).
Regards,
Barry
* One such 'application' is the Compose frame in this forum, running on Firefox (I haven't checked it on Safari).
PS: With luck, someone will have a more workable suggestion than the ones above.
PPS: Addition of the option to check or ignore ALL CAPS words in spell checking seems a natural for a feature enhancement request. Got to the "Pages" menu in Pages, choose Provide Pages Feedback, make the request, then be prepared to wait until at least the next full version of iWork to see any results.

EDIT: See, my PS was correct. Peter's suggestion is simpler than some of mine.

HT1926 Cannot install ADM in upgrading to iTunes 10.6.3 64-bit. Install does a 'rollback'. iTunes works but iPhone "DEVICE" is not seen in left panel.

Furthermore... AMD is not listed when I try the "Uninstall" trick - but all other Apple SW is - Bonjour, Quicktime etc.

One suggestion was to make sure AMD was started - go to admin, services etc. and make sure Apple Mobile Device is started. In my issue there is NO AMD listed in Services (local).
I have tried to reinstall/install at least 5 times - I always get to the 'rollback'. BUT - iTunes works! It is just that when I plug in my iPhone 4S it isn't recognized under Device.
I have Win 7 64-bit (and yes, I did download the correct 64-bit version). AMD does not install.
My version is 10.6
Before the upgrade everything worked fine. My iPhone is recognized at a local Apple store - so it's not the iPhone.

Can no longer drag icons, copy paste, print, spell check, drag and drop etc

All of a sudden I can no longer do any of thoses things. Also I get a message that ClamAV can not find the scanning agent either (I use ClamXav). the spell check in Safari does not work either. it claims it can not find my printer, and who knows what I did not find yet.
did several restarts. switched users. dumped com.apple.finder.plist to no avail.
any suggestions?

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your apps work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
If the problem is present in the test account also, then it is systemwide. In this case try repairing this with the 10.5.5 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
If the problem does not appear in the test account try starting in "Safe Mode" (It will take a bit more time to startup because it runs a directory check first).
If that works go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items and remove them. Boot normally and test. If there are still problems, go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving /Users/Home)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
Let us know.

Indesign CC spell check

I am using indesign CC and when I spell check the document i am working on it indicates that pretty much every word is spelled incorrectly (the aren't) I have check and my dictionary is set to English, however the spell check window indicates that it is set to Tamil (India)

That is THE place you set the language, other than as part of a style definition. Many users are confused by the dictionary options in the application preferences. This does not select a default language or affect the text in any way, it's just where you get to choose which dictionary vendor will be used, when more than one is installed, to spell-check and hyphenate text to which that particular language has been assigned.
As a character-level attribute, you have the ability to assigne the correct language to every bit of text in the document, so if you are mixing in "foreign" words they will be spell-checked according to the correct dictionary.
