Can You Turn Off Auto Spell???

I want to turn off the stupid auto spell, everytime I try to type something it changes my word to something else. does anybody know if and where it can be done? ive looked everywhere.

This does not totally answer your question, but if you just click on the word it is 'suggesting' - it will not change the word - but use the one you typed. I agree it is kinda helpful - but annoying at the the same time....I could personally live without it.

  • How can you turn off the spell checker in Firefox? (The menu option doesn't work.)

    There was a solution to this I came across a long time ago, but I don't remember what it was. I want to turn off my spell checker in Firefox. The usual instructions given for doing this are to go into Options->Advanced and de-select "Check my spelling as I type". This doesn't work. Period. And this is a bug that has been around for a long time in Firefox.
    What's a way to disable this? I don't like seeing a bunch of red lines under correctly spelled words that just happen to not be in Firefox's default dictionary, and I don't want to have to add things to my dictionary either.

    Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

  • Can you turn off iPhone auto-rotate?

    Can you turn off iPhone auto-rotate? I never used my phone sideways at all, and now emails and text messaging keeps rotating side ways at the slight angle my phone goes in. Its been really bothering me ever since updating to the 3.0 OS and I want to downgrade to stop this auto rotation.

    As these two say, you are going to have to try really hard to keep that phone upright.

  • How do you turn off Auto-Sync without connecting  the ipod  to PC?

    My Purchased Tracks was deleted off my computer, but I still have all of them on my ipod. I have iTunes 7, so I am aware I can transfer all my purchased music from my ipod to itunes. But I know auto-sync is set up, so when I connect it to my computer, won't it automatically sync itunes with my ipod and therefore delete my purchased music on my ipod? Can I turn off auto-sync without connecting my ipod?

    A couple of ways...
    Hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys when you plug in the iPod. (For a PC)
    Or...
    Connect your iPod, but before it starts to sync, click that little X on the right hand side of the ITunes display at the top of the page. (Next to the "Do Not Disconnect" message.)
    Then click box at bottom that says manually manage music.

    An alternate method is Accessibility Settings when connected to iTunes. You should be able to turn it off there. I would also check out some of the answers listed to the right of this post and see if they can help.

    How do you turn off auto complete in finder?

    A Google search turned up Stopping Autocomplete with "Go To Folder" Function and this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2601699?threadID=2601699  Knowledge Base has a few articles on "auto complete" pertaining to certain applications.  Didn't see any articles though about it for the Finder. 
    Yes you are correct.  I didn't know it was a "feature."  Thank you for pointing that out.

    That's the most stupid thing. It may work but the phone shouldn't be going off in your ear while in use from the start.

  • Can you turn off apps that you've opened so the battery lasts longer?

    With the new upgrade to 7.0.2 can you turn off apps you've opened so the battery lasts longer?

    Two things:
    In iOS 7 to close apps now you double click the Home button, then slide up on the cards for the apps you'd like to close.
    Next, to actually deal with the battery use issue and open apps, you can go to Settings>General>Background App Refresh and turn off the apps you don't care to have working behind the scenes.
