Any way to edit words in spell checker?

Since updating to ios5, my spell checker no longer recognizes my name when I type it in a message and tries to change it.  Any way to edit the words in the spell checker list so that it will again recognize my name?

You can't edit the spell checked but you can press the little red x when it offers a suggestion.  Do this a few times and it won't offer that any more.  See p. 25 of the User Guide.

  • Is there any way to edit the autocorrect dictionary?

    Autocorrect is potentially very useful, but it keeps throwing up mistakes and pointless alternatives. Is there any way to edit this list?
    FOR EXAMPLE: Whenever I type the word "word", iphone throws up "'Word" - complete with unwanted single-quote and capital W - and if I don't spot it in time, it inserts it. Another mistake is when it 'corrects' 'me' to 'mr', despite the fact that I don't normally use 'mr'.
    Is there any way to remove unwanted words in the autocorrect dictionary? Tapping the unwanted word - with its little 'x' at the end - doesn't delete the word from its use the next time. Furthermore, is there a way of ADDING a word that I know I'm going to need in the future? (Such as a friend's name)

    You can reset the dictionary back to default from the keyboard settings (or was it Reset area), either way, can reset the dictionary. No way to edit it. me should be more popular than mr and now sure why it is doing the Word thing.

    Hi
    Wrong..
    To assign tracks to a group, click in the dark gray box just above the automation (Read/Write/Off etc) on a channel strip, and select the group number you wish to use. The first tim eyou assign a group, the Group Setting swindow will appear automatically, thereafter you need to click on the group area and choose 'Open Group Settings'.
    Make sure that you have turned off Group Clutch (this disables all Groups)
    Maybe this will help

  • Is there any way to edit the standard Firefox context menu for displayed Web pages?

    Is there any way to edit the standard Firefox context menu for displayed Web pages? I frequently want to save a picture appearing on a page. Sometimes I "slip" and hit "Send Image" when I want "Save Image As", and have to sit and wait for a default send-mail page to come up, then close it, fiddling with its "are you sure" dialogs. This is a painful way to handle a slip-up. I basically NEVER want to e-mail an element directly from a page. Is there any way I can just delete "Send Image" from the context menu?

    You can remove entries in the context menu with code in the userChrome.css file

  • Learning a new word with spell check

    When I click on learn the machine beeps at me and won't learn. It is not greyed out. I have checked the dictionary location and both user and main are in the right place. I have got rid of the preferences file and restarted appleworks? Anyone got any ideas? is it possible for the user dictionnary to be full?

    I have got rid of the preferences file
    AppleWorks 6 keeps a set of Preferences and Cache files for each User, not just a single preferences file. See *my post in this thread* for details on deleting the prefs.
    is it possible for the user dictionary to be full?
    The AppleWorks 6 User Dictionary will hold only about 6000 words, so filling it is certainly a possibility. I had thought the Learn button would be greyed when that occurred, though.
    You can get a check on how many words there are in your User Dictionary pretty easily:
    With a document open, go Edit > Writing Tools > Edit User Dictionary.
    In the dialogue, click the disclosure triangle beside Text File, then click Export.
    Choose a location for the file, then click Save.
    Open a new WP file.
    Go File > Insert...
    Locate the User Dictionary Text Export file you just saved (it will be greyed).
    Use the File Format popup menu to change to either Text or All Available.
    Select and Open the file.
    Go Edit > Writing tools > Word Count to get a count of how many entries there are in your User Dictionary.
    Further steps: You might try creating a new User Dictionary.
    Go Edit Z. Writing Tools > Select Dictionaries...
    Click User Dictionary, then New.
    Give the new dictionary a name ('User Dictionary 2' is fine), then Save.
    If the new dictionary is not automatically selected as the Currently Selected Dictionary, Click Choose, and select it.
    Close the dialogue.
    Test the new dictionary's learning ability.
    If all is well, you can fill the new dictionary with the contents of the old one.
    The fastest way to do this is to Import the Text file you exported earlier (for the word count).
    A slower way, but one that will show you any arising problems, is to spell check the AW document you used for the word count. The spell check should question every word on that list, giving you a chance to spot and drop words that you don't expect to use, or that are misspellings that were learned in error.

  • WGM: is it possible to disable Word 2008 spell check with WGM?

    We have users that will use their macbooks to an exam where the teacher asks if htere is a possiblity to disable the spell check in Word.
    Thanks for any help i can get ...
    OSX server 10.5.6

    Yes, this should be possible.
    Applications store preferences in .plist files, which is basically all WGM does - controls plist files.
    You'll want to first identify which attributes with com.microsoft.Word.plist you want to control via WGM (to disable spell check).
    You may want to have Property List Editor installed (from developer tools - now on system administrator tools too) and open up /Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.Word.plist make a not of its settings. Then open word and change the settings necessary to turn off spell check. Then take a look at the plist file a minute afterward, you should notice some settings have changed. I think the setting may be "2008\Options\Options:AutoSpell", but you'll have to double-check.
    Once you know the setting, make a note of it and what the value should be to disable spell check.
    Now, open WGM and click a user, group, computer, or computer list object you want to control the spell check to. Click the preferences pane, then click 'DETAILS' (not Overview - which is default).
    Now click the PLUS button and browse for the com.microsoft.word.plist from your home folder. You may want to select 'ALWAYS' instead of 'OFTEN' as well. Then click 'ADD'.
    Once the plist is added to the list, double click it to edit it (you do not need property list editor for this part), and delete all of the attributes you do not need to control, you just want to leave the 1 or 2 attributes that toggle spell check to be off.
    This should take care of it.

  • Word 2007 Spell check failure.

    Hi, I'm having trouble with getting the spellcheck to work in word 2007.
    All the settings are, indeed, correct. Everything is ticked like it should be for the spell check to work.
    I've tried using it with different users and even in local administrator and I couldn't get it to work.
    So I stayed in local admin and went to add remove programs and COULDN'T FIND OFFICE 07 IN THE LIST!
    So I installed it and presto, after opening up a word document it worked beautifully.
    BUT, As soon as I logged in the user that was experiencing the difficulty I had her open a word document and spellcheck ceased to function again.
    I'm guessing this is not an issue with office 07 and more of an issue with either registry or maybe even the global profile.
    Any input would be greatly appreciatted.
    I am running out of ideas FAST.
    Maybe even a nudge in the right direction would get me going.
    One things for sure. I need help.
    Thanks.

     
    Hi,
    Please try these steps:
    1.       Go to: Word Options > Add-ins, click the drop down arrow next to Manage and select disabled items and check if there is any file listed over there with the name of spell or en-us. If yes, then enable it and check if the spell checker works fine or not?
    2.       Also go to registry editor, and go to this location HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools
    And rename “Proofing Tools” to “Old Proofing Tools”
    Close the registry editor and try to use the spell checker once again.
    3.       If you are still facing the issue then try to repair office by going into control panel & then add/remove programs, click on Microsoft office and then click on change

  • Adding words to spell check

  • How do i remove a word from spell check in OS X 10.4?

    Hi all, I accidentally added a misspelled word to the spell check dictionary and i was wondering how to remove it.
    I noticed there were already a few similar questions, but i could not get their solutions to work, as they were obviously using a new version of OS X.
    So does anyone know how to remove a word from from spell check in OS x 10.4? or else how to reset the spell check?
    Cheers.

    OK, if you are talking about the Apple spell checker, do the following:
    Open an application like TextEdit.  Right click in the application window and you will get a popup.  Select Spelling and then Spelling... to get a Spelling Dialog Box.
    Type in the mis-spelled word in the text box and then click the Forget button.  That should undo the mischief.

  • Is there any way to edit something in Premiere Pro if the (original) file is Windows Moviemaker?

    Hi!
    I always work with Premiere Pro CS6. A friend just asked to do a final edit (and export) of her video.
    But... she worked with Windows Moviemaker. Is there any way I can change or convert this file so that I can do the final edit in Premiere?

    I doubt there's a conversion that will enable you to import/convert a native Moviemaker project file into PP.
    You probably know this already, but the only way might be for your friend to export the timeline in a compatible format (AVI or MOV) and import to PP and pick up the edit from that point.
    I don't know Moviemaker, but you may be able to export individual video/ audio layers (as AVI or MOV), and reassemble them in PP.
    A PITB, but sometimes it's the only way.

  • Is there a way for the basic ENGLISH spell check dictionary to auto update? Its really annoying to have to update the spellcheck dictionary everytime FF updates

    Every time FF updates, it forces me to download and install the spell check dictionary for English. It makes me just choose to use another browser since more often than not its opening facebook and I like spell check when I use fb. Is there any solution?

    What Firefox locale do you use?
    Is that the en-US version or another locale like the French locale?
    You shouldn't lose installed dictionaries and other installed extensions when you update Firefox unless you would reset Firefox or a new profile got created for other reasons like problem with the profiles.ini file.
    Are there otherwise problems with updating that you notice?
    Note that in case you do not need all four French dictionaries then you can remove others and only keep the ones you need.
    You can find the dictionary files in the dictionaries folder of the extension in the extensions folder in the Firefox profile folder or possibly in the Firefox program folder if you use a French Firefox locale (don't know if that locale includes a dictionary).

    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
