"did you mean ..."

i keep waiting for apple to ...
.. in the google toolbar (i use windows at work), if you type "harry pooter" by mistake (for example), google asks you "did you mean: harry potter" and if you did and you click on the new search value, it updates the toolbar, replacing "pooter" with "potter," (for example), so the next time you search from the toolbar, it looks for "potter".
i keep waiting for apple to build that correction feature into safari. it's VERY handy, especially for a sloppy typist like me.

SharePoint 2010 Search "Did You Mean" | How does it work?

My customer has raised a concern that "Did you mean" functionality works inconsistently and issue is explained as below:
1. When I search for misspelled word such as "Maketting" , search page displays the option "Did you mean ""Marketting"?
2. When I search for another misspelled word "Marktng", I get no result and no "Did you mean" option.
I believe there is a dictionary which maintains the mapping between misspelled word and the correct words but I was unable to track the location whether it is in database or a file system. Has anyone faced this issue and know the solution? Below article
talks about a "Dictionary lexicon" but not sure about the location in SharePoint 2010 farm.

Hi Deepak,
“Do you mean” functionality is enabled by selecting Query Suggestions in Search Box web part.
Suggestions are automatically built based on what search results are actually clicked on. It takes 6 clicks within a year for SharePoint to add a suggestion.
However, if an administrator needs to add a suggestion manually this can be done using the SharePoint 2010 Management Shell (PowerShell).
I recommend to use PowerShell to check all the suggestions in the Search Service Application, and then remove the one that you do not need.
$ssa=Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
Get-SPEnterpriseSearchQuerySuggestionCandidates -SearchApp $ssa
Remove a suggestion, such as “Marketting”:
$ssa=Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
Remove-SPEnterpriseSearchLanguageResourcePhrase -SearchApplication $ssa -Language En-Us -Type QuerySuggestionAlwaysSuggest -Identity "
Marketting "

In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.

When, on my home page, I click on the link "popup transparent" in the query, "Did you mean: popup transparent", NO RESULTS appear in that new tab; how fix?

I've been having trouble due, apparently, to a file named popuptransparent[dot]xul, of which I have 3 instances on my computer (running Win XP/Firefox latest v.). Using my AVG home-page window, I search for "popuptransparent" (to try to fix it) and the results appear OK. But then when I click, for a new tab, on the link "popup transparent" in the query, "Did you mean: popup transparent", NO RESULTS appear in that new tab. Further, when I then reload the AVG panel that searched for "popuptransparent" in the first place, it, too, now shows no results. Nor does a Google panel now show any results. They show the quantity of results but just white screens for the results themselves.
The links https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/948804?esab=a&as=aaq and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/952141?esab=a&as=aaq don't help me. I have re-installed Firefox v. 20.0.1 to no avail. How to fix it?
Should I delete from my computer all 3 of those [dot]xul instances?

Thanks to jscher! With some help from AVG my AVG & Google browser panels now work OK. But I've taken the advice & disabled several extensions including the Disconnect. The browsers are still OK after re-launching them so I keep fingers crossed.
My original problem was that I had suddenly found a small popup window appearing, over the browser window, that I couldn't get rid of. It contained an advisory to the effect that Windows couldn't find the file popuptransparent[dot]xul. I tried searching for that to see what it was and in the course of doing that I seem to have executed it. Then was when the trouble started.
I have 3 instances of that file in my computer and would dearly like to get rid of them if they are of no use to me. Any advice there?

Did you mean Endeca/ATG!

Hello,
   I'm trying to get search suggestions to the render "did you mean?" words in my cartridge SearchAdjustments of my web page, but the list that should have the search suggestions is always empty. However, the adjusted terms that apparently works in the same way works fine. Somebody knows what's missing to get the suggested seaches?
Here's my render's code:

</dsp:page>
PS: contentItem.adjustedSearches works fine, but contentItem.suggestedSearches is always empty no matter how term I put on the search box.

Eu solved the problem!
It was missing configure a SearchAdjustmentsConfig with setSpellSuggestionEnabled(true) and setPhraseSuggestionEnabled(true)
In my case I created a property root/config/atg/endeca/assembler/cartridge/handler/config/SearchAdjustmentsConfig.properties with the following content:
$class=com.endeca.infront.cartridge.SearchAdjustmentsConfig
phraseSuggestionEnabled=true
spellSuggestionEnabled=true
Now the MDEX is populating the contentItem.suggestedSearches. The contentItem.adjustedSearches was already working fine because it's all setting automatically.
Thanks anyway!

How to get Did you mean feature visible - WP configuration done

I have SP 2010 Entpr. Search and a results page with Search Summary WP with "Show Messages" option on. I have suggestions in index like "sharepoint".
If I spell wrong for example "sharepint", I don't get Did you mean option. So, how can I test this feature because I don't know what is possible? What words / terms I should test?
I don't have FAST Search.

Search Suggestions:
On your search page, make sure that they are enabled in your
Search Box web part - "Edit Web Part" and there is a checkbox in the Query Suggestions section. This checkbox should be checked by default.

http://blogs.technet.com/b/chad/archive/2010/06/24/tip-34-adding-a-sharepoint-2010-search-suggestion.aspx. This page provides insight into how the suggestions work and how to manually add suggestions using PowerShell.
Did you mean?:
On your search results page select "Edit Web Part" for the
Search Summary web part. In the Miscellaneous section, check the "Show Messages" checkbox. This will enable the display of the "Did you Mean?" messages. This checkbox is not checked by default.

"Did you mean" suggests same keyword

When I search for "test" and then refine by result type "Web Page" - it asks did I mean the same "test" keyword? A click on suggestion doesn't change anything.
Does anyone have an idea of possible reasons for such behavior?

Hi Alexey,
Query Spelling Correction:
This function is hosted in the Termstore. We can now easy configure “Exclusion” and “Inclusion” Terms. Another big benefit is, that Terms configured in the “Inclusion” Termset also used for “Did you mean”
functionality.
So this example showing in the Pic would result in searching for
”EI” and didn’t get any results the system will suggest “Did you mean
ExpertsInside”
Thanks,

Providing users with 'did you mean to type' spellcheck ....

I had a request come in to allow the end user to type in a value - and my program would search a particular field and tell the user if that value existed or did not exist. fine. they also want to know if there's anyting "similar". so, sure, i can do: field = user_input_variable or field like %user_input_variable% - but is there any mechanism already out there - or what about a pl/sql package someone wrote and is sharing (?) that would catch records in a spellcheck fasion, where ... maybe if 3 or more consecutive characters matched - or two digits were transposed? they're not typing in words out of a dictionary, they're typing in values that are specific to us.
thanks in advance!

I agrere with Justin, the UTL_Match package sounds like the best choice (Though I personally haven't used it but rather used SOUNDEX since I am working with a prior oracle version)Just to clarify, you are comparing apples and oranges. SOUNDEX and UTL_MATCH are based on completely different methods and serve different purposes. Soundex lets compare words that are spelled differently, but sound alike in a specific language+*. UTL_MATCH.EDIT_DISTANCE simply gives you number of characters that are different between two strings. Therefore, SOUNDEX is NLS dependent while UTL_MATCH is not. SOUNDEX that comes with Oracle is for English language only. Based on nick ukraine.believe, OP would have to find Ukrainian SOUNDEX for Oracle (assuming such is available). Another major difference is UTL_MATCH.EDIT_DISTANCE provides a way to measure how different words are while SOUNDEX simply tells if words sound alike - it does not provide any way to measure how different words sound. Anyway, below is an example:
SQL> SELECT utl_match.edit_distance('expresso', 'espresso') DIST,
2         SOUNDEX('expresso'),
3         SOUNDEX('espresso')
4    FROM dual
5 /

         1 E216 E216
SQL> SELECT utl_match.edit_distance('expresso', 'e1presso') DIST,
2         SOUNDEX('expresso'),
3         SOUNDEX('e1presso')
4    FROM dual
5 /
      DIST SOUN SOUN
         1 E216 E162
SQL> As you can see, UTL_MATCH gave us same smallest possible (except exact match) distance in both cases since it olny takes one change to transform first word into second word. SOUNDEX results in second case show words do not sound alike. Below is an opposite example:
SQL> SELECT utl_match.edit_distance('expresso', 'eakspreasaah') DIST,
2         SOUNDEX('expresso'),
3         SOUNDEX('eakspreasaah')

CS3 Eraser tool: Did you mean it, Mordy?

In Real World (p. 114), Mordy says that dragging the new, funky Eraser across a portion of a stroked path or a brush stroked path will require the re-application of the stroke (or brush stroke) to the surviving segments.
I infer from this that the Eraser (like some pathfinders and Live Paint) will remove multiple strokes, brush strokes, and maybe other effects from the path.
I draw a few open paths, apply an Effect to one, a second and third stroke to another, a brush to a third. I "cut" across each path with the Eraser tool. My resulting paths are retaining the various stroke effects after they've been chopped up by the Eraser. No need to re-apply.
What am I missing?

Mordy's text is probably accurate, I wasn't there to be able to judge, a consumer as yourself.
It is just that things were updated after.
it is like an OS being updated and then one of your applications ha a problem with the way it functions, the code is written the application is released according to specs and there is no bug then the OS developer finds it has to revise the OS because it found an overlooked security breach potential. Now everything is correct and according to specs and there is no bug, except there is a bug. You now do not have to correct an error but you have to instead write a new code for that lost feature.
This is hard to understand for a lot of users, they think it is simply a matter of accuracy or poor implementation or laziness etc. but it is just a matter of logistics, the order in which things work out. It i always a give and take situation.
It is not current as opposed to inaccurate.
Of course if Mordy chimes in and says he was in accurate and made a mistake, then in the Holiday Spirit we can let him have it, but good!

Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon" without you adding it? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of this?

Credit card and debit card and checking and savings information is encrypted so it is possible to be hacked, but the odds are greater to get hit by the Love Boat then to have a wide scale hack.
Oh yes they do happen, Bank of America, Chase, Citibank, Target and quite a few others. But in all the years I have paid my invoice with saved card information I never been hacked.
You use good passwords and the risk is minimal.

I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car pato caa パトカア　they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.
I am getting off the topic but I am at a loss to fix this problem when they hold the keys and i have all the info to verify my ID.

Did you know how easy it is to void your warranty?

Many things are in the terms and conditions but I feel some need to be brought to the attention of the buyer,in Particular this one!
Did you know that if the screen gets a scratch ,the warranty becomes void!!
so even if there is a problem with the device itself that has nothing to do with you,if you have a scratch on the screen they wont repair it,claiming that there is damage to the device and the warranty is void!!
Holy GOD,im shocked to find this out,but this is from Apple itself! A scratch on the screen means you have NO COVER!! Do me a favour and pass this on,as Im sure others will be as surprised as me to find this out!
Quote from Apple when I asked if a scratch to the screen would mean I have no cover
"Angelo:
Yes, if there is any damage to the device the warranty is voided.".

Not necessarily true as your post is too general. The warranty does not cover cosmetic damage, so a scratched screen will not be repaired/replaced to fix the scratch. However, Apple will determine, on a case by case basis, if the cosmetic damage actually indicates a cause for any functional or other hardware defect or improper function.
You can indeed bring in a cosmetically flawed device for service under warranty for defective components. The only time cosmetic damage will void the warranty entirely is if it is determined to indicate accidental damage, abuse or mis-use of the device in some way as to void the warranty. But that is decided on a case by case basis, and there is no blanket rule governing such instances.
You can read your warranty here - https://www.apple.com/legal/warranty (pick your country from the bottom right flag symbol). In the USA, for an iPad with retina display, the main paragraph covering the issue you raise would be:
"This Warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries or protective coatings that are designed to diminish over time, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the Apple Product outside Apple’s published guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (“AASP”); (g) to an Apple Product that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Apple; (h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the Apple Product, or if any serial number has been removed or defaced from the Apple Product."
Note the separate statements - that cosmetic damage itself is not covered, nor is damage caused by accident, abuse or misuse. However, whether anything falling into the former criterion actually constitutes voidance of the warranty by the latter criterion will be determined by Apple when you present an item for warranty service. One thing does not automatically imply the other.
