Cannot turn off auto-complete

I know how to turn off auto-complete in adobe reader, but I have 1 user where the option is grayed out and I cannot change the setting. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

I wish I knew the answer to that and many other questions. We are all just other iPad users like you trying to help each other sort through any problems that may arise. Frankly, I would love to be able to turn off auto correct and keep spell check on just like you. The only recourse we have right now is to offer our feedback to Apple about it and you can do that by clicking on this...

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.

Cannot turn-off Auto Correction and leave Check Spelling On

For some reason, when you turn off Auto correction- (keyboard settings) it also turns off check spelling.
Hope thesre is a fix for this.

How to turn off auto-complete in Keynote (tables) ?

Has anybody found a way to turn off (disable) auto-complete for cells in a table in Keynote ?
Occasionally I would prefer to work without the blinky yittery typing experience it creates.
It's not a live or death thing, but having an option to turn auto-complete off would make working with Keynote more pleasant.

Stefan,
For reasons unknown to me and beyond my ability to guess, KN lacks control of that feature. You could build your table in either Pages or Numbers, where autocompletion can but disabled in the General Preference Pane, and paste it into KN.

How do i turn off auto complete in lion os

Can anyone tell me how I can turn off the autocomplete function in Lion OS. Whenever I finish typing a sentence it's made up all kinds of words I don't want!
I'm finding it rather frustrating so hopefully there's a simple solution.

Text replacement is controlled by each program.
Typically, look in the Edit menu for the program. In the Substitutions submenu is an item named "Text Replacement". Try unchecking that one.
You can also select the "Show Substitions" item in that same submenu. In the screen that then opens, click the "Text Preferences..." button. That will open the System Preferences panel for Langauge & Text, specifically the Text pane of that prefs. In that pane you can control exactly what is substituted for what.

Cannot turn off auto response in Mac Mail rules.

I set up a vacation auto response as a rule on Mac Mail. Now the auto response is still running but does not appear under the rules in my Mail preferences. How do I turn it off? I did not set it up under my server.

Hey Barbara Rohrer,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It might be helpful to delete and re-add your account from the Preferences menu. Please note, that if the account is setup as POP, this may remove the email messages from your computer.

Thanks,

Cannot turn off auto correction of forward slash after character "o" (Ø)

Hi There:
I have a strange problem with Keynote 09: Every time I type "o/" it turns into the nordic character "Ø" (o with forward slash through it). I turned automatic correction off in the preferences, but it still keeps doing it. The only way to circumvent this right now is to put a 'space' in between the o and the slash...however, with web addresses and other syntax critical items this poses a problem. Would be great if anybody had a workaround for this. Thanks!

This is normally caused by old OS 9 fonts that are incompatible with OS X. Just switching fonts should fix it but also check your fonts for those from Apple dating from the 1990's and try removing them.

How do I turn off Auto-Complete in my Numbers 3.2 on iMac

When I'm typing in the colums it keeps doing a drop down menu with various versions of what I've already typed. I've looked everywhere and found one reply on here that says I have to go to general settings but I can't even find that.
Please help, it's driving me crazy!!
If I could just tab on the one I wanted that would be fine but I have to go down the list and the press enter then tab. Too complicated.
Lol

It's here (in Numbers > Preferences):
Uncheck 'Show suggestions when editing table cells'.

Turn off Auto Detect Settings in IE using GPO

As a follow-up on some kind of bug in sharepoint ( http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sharepointgeneral/thread/f3dbe651-be99-491b-8c6c-fc4792ae0b22 ) I need to turn off Auto detect settings in IE on all my clients, as this speeds up sharepoint
on many clients.
"The Internet Explorer Maintenance settings can be set in two modes: policy mode (to enable by Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy\Internet Explorer Maintenance policy processing) or preference mode(to enable by right-clicking
Internet Explorer Maintenance)." (snipped from http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverGP/thread/57d81da5-de30-4930-8649-197d204b2a6c )
Well, I have problem configuring Automatically detect settings. I have no trouble changing other parts of the same policy (changes are applied to all my computers), e.g. trusted sites and such. However I cannot turn off Auto Detect settings. I wonder if unchecking
Auto Detect Settings really means "no change"/unconfigured?
Is the only option then to use a hardcoded reg change?
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ControlPanel\Autoconfig ?

As of IE10/11, this should be set in Group Policy Preferences: [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn338129.aspx]
User Configuration
   └ Preferences
      └ Control Panel Settings
         └ Internet Settings
Create a new IE10 configuration.
Remember you can enable or disable these settings within a preference item by pressing function keys:
F5
Enable all settings on the current tab.
F6
Enable the currently selected setting.
F7
Disable the currently selected setting.
F8
Disable all settings on the current tab.

How can I turn off auto-capitalization for Mail in Mountain Lion?

Thanks - this helped me track it down - some Textexpander setting apparently got switched when I updated.

Why does ipad dim after turning off auto dim

my ipad continues to dim slightly back and forth despite the fact i turned off auto dim, why?

Have you tried closing the scrabble app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the scrabble game 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the scrabble app to close it (you could also 'close' the apps that are in the taskbar), and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
A third option would then be to delete and re-install the app and see if that makes any difference

Please tell me how to turn off auto renew in my itunes account for app subscriptions?

I see no option to turn off auto re-new in my account settings! all the app says is to avoid itunes account from being charged turn off auto re-new in account settings! ***! i do not see any option to do so!

If you subscribing to itunes match then you just need to turn it off.
Open the latest version of iTunes on your computer. You cannot subscribe to iTunes Match from an iOS device.
Choose Store > Turn OFF iTunes Match.
On the phone got to settings -itunes and app store- turn off itunes match.
If you are not subscribing to match, your questions does not really make sense to me and you may want to elaborate a bit, or maybe someone smarter then me will come alone.

Hey ktillis88,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the following resource may be helpful:
iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
"Backups for appname cannot be turned off at this time."
This message occurs if disabling Backup for an app on your iOS device does not complete successfully. Wait a few minutes and then attempt to disable Backup for the app again. If you continue to receive this alert, contact iCloud Support for assistance.
Thanks,
Matt M.
