Adding words to the auto complete library

Is there any way to add a word to the auto complete Library?  Auto Complete keeps changing the spelling of my name.  I thought I noticed that the auto complete had a "learn" feature.  It seemed to me that it would remember words after I typed them and ignored auto correct but I guess I was imagining things.
Holli

By clicking the X to ignore the autocomplete does add it.  However there is more to it than adding.
It "weights" words.  So if the word it thinks you want is "weighted" more in algorithim it will still suggest it.  However each time you ignore it it "should" weight  you more and more and the other word less and less.

    This is really unfortunate. I'm sorry that nothing works. I was going to mention holding down the power button and doing a force shutdown but you already did that. You might need to take it into the Apple store. I don't know if booting into safe mode would help. You would have to turn off the machine again, hit the start button and hold down the shift key after you hear the tone, but normally you would let go of the shift key when you see the apple logo and spining wheel. Maybe by holding down the shift key after you here the tone will cause the screen to come back on? The other option is to start up from the 'install disk' if your machine came with one. You would insert the disk, then shut down the computer, and hold down the C key right after hitting the start button.

  • Disable theMail user to re-enable the auto complete function in Composing.

    Hi Just wondering if anyone knows of a way of disabling the auto-complete function of the Addressing section under Composing in Mails preferences? To many company emails are being sent to the wrong recipients.
    I have changed everyones preferences and used ARD to push out the updated preference, but as the user can just switch it back on, its not very helpful. I need a way of locking down the preference?
    Any help appreciated..
    Thanks

    Solved.. I just added the preference setting to to the Library/Preferences/ for Mail and it over rides the users... I might try this on other applications...

  • Editing the auto complete dictionary?

    Hello All, Was wondering if there's a way to edit the auto complete dictionary on the E6/Symbian ^3/Symbian Anna? There is an auto complete dictionary editor available from Beta labs, but is incompatible with the E6. I seem to remember that the trick in earlier versions of Symbian phones was to connect the phone in USB mass storage mode and then edit a file. Don't remember the name of the file at the moment. Does any one remember this? Thanks!

  • How can i delete all the "auto complete" addresses on my iPad mail

    I want to give my old iPad 1 to a relative . I'd like to leave all the apps for her but not all the "auto complete" contacts which appear when I use the Mail function. These names are not on "contacts" and seem to have been accumulated from mails I have sent/received over the years. is there a way to just delete these without doing a complete delete of everything on the iPad?

    Yes, but it is very tedious. You will have to begin typing an email address in the To: field in order to bring up those suggested email addresses. Then you tap the blue "I" next to the email address. In the next window that appears, swipe down to Remove from Recents and tap that to delete the address. You would have to do this for every single email address that you have ever received an email from, that is not in your contacts app.
    But what I am curious about is why wouldn't you remove your email accounts from the iPad? That will eliminate the problem altogether. You don't want to give the iPad to your relative that way, do you?

  • Redirect to 3 diffrent pages based on value in the Auto complete field.

    Hi Friends,
    I am using an "Auto complete field" in a page for searching(Apex version 4.0). But i need to get values from 3 tables and when clicking on the value redirect to any of the 3 pages based on the value.
    For example i am having 3 tables. 1.Customers 2.Sites 3.Employees. When i enter 'c' in the search field i need to get values from 3 tables to be listed in that "auto complete" field. i.e, if i am having customer with name 'cusotmer1', 'customer2' and site with names 'cisc1','cisc2' and employees with name'cid1','cid2' ; when i enter 'c' in the auto complete field all 6 values must be listed in the "auto complete" field and when clicking on 'customer1'/'customer2' need to redirect to page 'customer'. When clicking on 'cisc1'/'cisc2' redirect to "site" when clicking on 'cid1'/'cid2' redirect to employees page. Is there any way to achieve this. Please help.
    Regards,

    Hi Nav,
    OK - on my page 1, I have a "Text Field with autocomplete" item called P1_SELECTION. The List of Values definition setting for this is:
    WITH D AS (SELECT ENAME || ' (Employee)' X
    FROM EMP
    UNION ALL
    SELECT DNAME || ' (Department)' X
    FROM DEPT)
    SELECT X
    FROM D
    ORDER BY 1This adds the appropriate suffix to each item to show where the data is from - you can change this if you want as this becomes part of the searchable text.
    On page 1, I have a normal SUBMIT button.
    Then I have two branches:
    1 - settings are:
    Branch Type: Branch to Page or URL
    Branch Point: On Submit: After Processing (After Computation, Validation, and Processing)
    Target Type: Page in this Application
    Page: 2 (the employee edit page)
    Clear Cache: 2
    Set these items: P2_ENAME
    With these values: &P1_SELECTION.
    Condition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P1_SELECTION LIKE '%(Employee)'When Button Pressed: SUBMIT
    2 - settings are:
    Branch Type: Branch to Page or URL
    Branch Point: On Submit: After Processing (After Computation, Validation, and Processing)
    Target Type: Page in this Application
    Page: 3 (the department edit page)
    Clear Cache: 3
    Set these items: P3_DNAME
    With these values: &P1_SELECTION.
    Condition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P1_SELECTION LIKE '%(Department)'When Button Pressed: SUBMIT
    On page 2 (the employee edit form), I have Computation with the following settings:
    Item Name: P2_EMPNO
    Type: SQL Query (return single value)
    Computation Point: Before Header
    Computation:
    SELECT EMPNO
    FROM EMP
    WHERE ENAME || ' (Employee)' = :P2_ENAME Condition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P2_ENAME LIKE '%(Employee)'On page 3 (the department edit form), I have Computation with the following settings:
    Item Name: P2_DEPTNO
    Type: SQL Query (return single value)
    Computation Point: Before Header
    Computation:
    SELECT DEPTNO
    FROM DEPT
    WHERE DNAME || ' (Department)' = :P3_DNAMECondition Type: Exists (SQL query returns at least one row)
    Expression 1:
    SELECT 1
    FROM DUAL
    WHERE :P3_DNAME LIKE '%(Department)'The idea is that we append some fixed text to the end of the names in the autocomplete list. When the user clicks submit after selecting a name, one of the branches will be triggered depending on which fixed text is there. The branch sets the ENAME or DNAME value on the edit page and the computation on that page retrieves the appropriate EMPNO or DEPTNO value to put into the primary key page item (the main "Fetch Row..." process will then use that to get the real data for the record).
    Note that this assumes that ENAME and DNAME are unique on their tables - otherwise, the computations will not be able to find a single record and an error would be generated.

  • Clear the auto complete function of Mail addresses? Désactiver la saisie semi automatique des adresses Mail sur iPad?

    Je ne souhaite pas que les differentes adresses pré-utilisées s'affichent quand je veux taper une adresse mail et envoyer un nouveau message. Comment désactiver la saisie semi automatique qui m'affichent ces différentes adresses? ex: si je tape la lettre "p" j'ai 4 adresses qui sont pré-sélectionnées et je ne veux pas ça.
    Merci d'avance
    I don't want the email addresses used for previous sent messages to show when I input the first letter of the desired receiver of the message. How can I disactivate the auto complete function of the mail addresses? i.e. when I type the letter "p", I don't want the 4 addresses starting with "p" to show.
    Thanks.

    If you erase the iPad completely, (erase all content and settings) the addresses will go away, but they will return again as soon as you start sending emails again and entering text in the To: field. And you will have to set the iPad up all over again.
    If you reset all settings - they will not go away.
    Erasing the device is pretty radical and it is only a temporary fix anyway. The suggested email addresses window will always pop up when you start entering text into the To: field and there is no way to deactivate it.

  • How to reset the auto-complete email adresses?

    How can I delete old email addresses from auto complete?
    I have been having trouble trying to find out how to delete the old typed email history. For an example, if I go to send a picture to Bob, I start typing Bob and it comes up with 3 old emails of his. Not a big deal except it's hard to keep track of what emails are current.
     In other words, after deleting the old emails in the contacts it still shows up when I start typing a person's name. 

    I am having the same problem on my IPad.  It appears these old email addresses are saved in the memory and from what I read, there is no way to delete them regardless if you delete the contact.  Hopefully in a future update that can be resolved.  It is very annoying though.

  • Adding a timeout to Auto Complete doesn't work for IE

    We implemented our own declarative auto complete component. So we're manually handling KeyUp and KeyDown.
    One thing that we need to do is to add a timeout so that when the user is typing, we don't fire the bean code to do the query on every key pressed, but only do it after say half a second. That way if the user is intending to type 3 keys, we only need to fire our query once, where realHandleKeyUpOnSuggestField is the function that calls the query among other things.
    This is called from our ClientListener
    function handleKeyUpOnSuggestField(evt) {
        var realHandleKeyUpOnSuggestField = function () {
            // start the popup aligned to the component that launched it
            var inputField = evt.getSource();
            var suggestPopup = inputField.findComponent("suggestPopup");
            //   var suggestTable = inputField.findComponent("suggestTable");
            //don't open when user "tabs" into field
            var valueStr = inputField.getSubmittedValue();
            // Special characters coming from scanner. Don't popup if that's the case.
            if (suggestPopup.isShowing() == false && evt.getKeyCode() != AdfKeyStroke.TAB_KEY) {
                //hints = {align:AdfRichPopup.ALIGN_AFTER_START, alignId:evt.getSource().getClientId()+"::content"};
                var alignTo = inputField.getClientId() + "::content";
                var hints = {
                    align : AdfRichPopup.ALIGN_AFTER_START, alignId : alignTo
                suggestPopup.show(hints);
                //disable popup hide to avoid popup to flicker on
                //key press
                suggestPopup.hide = function () {
            //suppress server access for the following keys
            //for better performance
            if (evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ARROWLEFT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ARROWRIGHT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ARROWLEFT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.SHIFT_MASK || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.END_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ALT_KEY || evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.HOME_KEY) {
                return false;
            if (evt.getKeyCode() == AdfKeyStroke.ESC_KEY) {
                hidePopup(evt);
                return false;
                // query suggest list on the server
                AdfCustomEvent.queue(suggestPopup, "suggestServerListener",
                // Send single parameter
                    filterString : valueStr
    true);
        var inputField = evt.getSource();
        if (window["timer" + inputField.getClientId()]) {
            window.clearTimeout(window["timer" + inputField.getClientId()]);
        window["timer" + inputField.getClientId()] = window.setTimeout(realHandleKeyUpOnSuggestField, 500);
    }This works fine in FireFox and Safari and Chrome, but not in IE.

    When I debugged through, it seems like the event's getKeyCode() doesn't exist. I'm assuming it's something to do with scope for IE working different than FireFox.
    I realize this is more JavaScript question, but I'm wondering if anyone got something like that to work on ADF. As far as I know, there's no other way besides using JavaScript and IE doesn't seem handle scoping very well. I can't use a global parameter because I'm using this in a component and you can have multiple components in a page.

  • HT1386 Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

    Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

    You can share a library with as many devices as you want but they cannot have seperate subsets like you wish. They would all have access to all information in the library. You could "Manually" sync content to each device by doing the following:
    On Mac: iTunes > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
    On Pc: Edit > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
    To manually sync data from iTunes to devices see article below:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
    If you do not want all devices to have access to all the media from the main library, you would need to create a library for each device. See the article below for more info:

    Hope this helps.

  • Adding words to the dictionary

    Dont suppose anyone knows how to add words to the dictonary for future reference

    hi Anne-Marie,
    why be so negative ? "Rethink possible"
    just type your text, in an email or an SMS or in a web form.
    type your word
    open menu, invoke the spell checker
    accept/escape until you get to your world
    open menu, select "Add to dictionnary".
    that is, if you are able to type your new word of course. Do you know how to do that yet ? If not, here is what I do :
    I start typing my new word. At some point, the device will guess wrong. and then :
    I do backspace
    I click on the key with the letter
    the device will then propose two choices : one with one letter, and one with the other
    I hover on the correct letter
    I type the following letter, and start all over again until the new word is composed.
    Beware, this only allows you to type the unknown word. You have to do what I wrote earlier to explicitely add it to your dictionnary.

  • How to change the width of the auto complete drop down list?

    Hi,
    I implemented an autocomplete mechanism, using ICompletionSession and ICompletionSourceProvider. I have an issue with the size of the drop-down list opened when I use this autocomplete mechanism. The width of the autocomplete list remains the same, even
    if the strings displayed change. This is apparent especially when I hit "backspace" on the already typed string, while the drop down list is opened: the deletion of the last character allows for more completion strings to be used, but since the drop
    down width does not change, the longer strings appear cut.
    Is there a way to force the drop down list to recalculate its width?
    Yoel

    I don't think there's any way, even VS itself can't do that you know, and the interfaces don't have such kind of events or properties.
