Greek Spell Check and Auto-Correction

Hi, I want to know if I can add a Greek dictionary that will have the same features as the English Language has on Lion.
Why Apple didn't integrate such a simple thing. To make every user from different places in the world to have the convenience of Auto-Correction they have on iOS on OS X too. Greek Auto-Correction exist on iOS why not on Lion?

Nobody can tell you why Apple hasn't included some feature that you want, but you can ask them for it here:

Nobody can answer that, Apple never provides such info in advance.

Have you tried the one at this site?

You put the .dic and .aff files in Home/Library/Spelling.

How can add Greek Language to spell-checking dictionary?

How can I add a new language in the spell-checking dictionary that is not the given options, specifically Greek?
And if there is a way can I do it to other applications as well (Safari, Textedit etc.)?

Spell checking is not an application feature but a system one.
When a checker is installed, it is available for every modern application.
Is Grrek available in the list of languages available from
System PrefPane entitled International ?
If itsn't, install it.
Maybe this will connect a spellchecker too.
If it doesn't, grab a checker from cocoaSpell.

You need to give more details:
1. What version of Pages?
2. Where did you get the Greek dictionary from and exactly how did you install it?
3. Are you applying the language to your text?

Downloaded multilingual spell checks on Mac PowerPC G5

I have a Mac PowerPC G5 connected to the internet, and a separate PowerPC G4 that I use separate from the internet, connecting to the first PC only through diskettes, DVDs, or flash data storage.
I use the latter PC to write my preliminary work before transferring it to a PC that (despite the firewall) can be hacked. (I have reason to believe that it has been hacked.)
I downloaded the spell check software for Hebrew, Arabic, Greek, and Latin. I have found the files for the spell check software in the Downloads folder, but do not know where to transfer them so that I can use them in my Office (Word, etc.) and Nisus files.
Also, I would like to transfer them to my disconnected PC. Can that be done.
Please help.

Here is the bit confusion, modem is connected on which slot of the Router? Here is the connectivity first of all connect the Comcast modem to the Router on the Internet port and then connect the computer with any one of the Ethernet port of the Router [Numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4] then the light status on the Router as well as check the IP address…
You can find your IP address from the Mac System Preferences:
From the Apple menu pull down “System Preferences”
Click on the “Network” preference pane
Your IP address will be visible to the right
Let me know what information that you get in that window….

Medical Spell Check

How I do I run the English USA dictionary then run English Medical dictionary when spell-checking documents?
I work in medical advertising and it would save me adding our medical terms to the English USA dictionary.

Yes, that's the way to do it.
I guess common medical terms are added, because hyphenation and spell check work very different (these terms, as you may well know, usally have Latin and Greek roots).
(Additionally:)
You cannot set a document to a language. For existing documents: if you used Paragraph Styles, go to the Advanced Character Format and change the language there. The paragraphs that use these styles are adjusted automatically. If you did not used styles -- well, you should have! -- select all text and change the language using the Character panel.
You can also set the 'default language' for new documents: close all documents, then change the language using the Character panel. It should 'stick' for newly entered (but not styled) text.

I can't use word because a box keeps popping up saying that it can't find the spell check files?

I open Word and there is a pop-up message saying that word cannot start the spelling checker because the files may be missing and to make sure that the spell checker files are installed or use the Microsoft installer to install spell checker. I have never had this problem with Word before and spell check has always been fine. What should I do?

Since word is made by Microsoft you should post your question on their own forums for their Mac software as Apple Communities only provide support for Apple products:

Pages 08 Spell Checker Not Working

When I started using Pages 08, I turned on the Spelling --> Check Spelling As You Type. One day it stopped to work, in fact I do not know whether it is working or not since the red lines that highlighted incorrectly-spelled text no longer appeared. I tried turning the feature on and off several times, and fiddled with Text Inspector, but have foind no solution to this. Please advise, anyone. Thanks.

Repairing Permissions did not do anything for me. I have tried various and other sundry things as found in other messages about this major issue w/ Pages, but to no avail. Spell check works fine in other apps, TextEdit for example.

Pages 08 spell checker not working after pasting in a windows document.

I am working Pages 08. I pasted a Windows document ( Microsoft word I am assuming ? ) that I saved from another email account(not safari,school based) into my Pages document. Now the spell checker will not work in the Pages document only, Works fine everywhere else. Even if I paste the Pages text into a new document the checker will not work in the document. Any suggestions /

I figured it out. The language was set to none in the inspector

Pages 08 - Spell check as you type has stopped working

Hi,
My Pages 08, which is ticked to 'check spelling whilst typing' is no longer checking spelling as I type.
It was working fine yesterday, but has stopped today.
Moreover, it's not even spell checking when I ask it to do it manually.
Can anyone help?
Regards,

I didn't install the British English language on my machines so I can't check the behavior of Pages when this language is the first one.
Here is the brute force way describer for the Blank template used in WP mode.
It would be the same for others.
ctrl click the Pages.app icon
show package's contents
open Contents
open Resources
open Templates
open Blank
ctrl click Blank.template
duplicate index-iso.xml.gz or index-trad.xml.gz in a safe area (folder named Pages-Blank-template ).
double click index-iso.xml.gz or index-trad.xml.gz
You will get index-iso.xml or index-trad.xml
Open it with TextEdit or TextWrangler for instance.
Search for
<sf:language><sf:null/></sf:language>
Replace all occurences by
<sf:language><sf:string sfa:string="en_GB"/></sf:language>
save index-iso.xml or index-trad.xml
for English, the replacement string would be:
<sf:language><sf:string sfa:string="en"/></sf:language>
for French it would be:
<sf:language><sf:string sfa:string="fr"/></sf:language>
for Spanish it would be:
<sf:language><sf:string sfa:string="sp"/></sf:language>
The next time you will use this template, it will default to British English everywhere.

System-wide spell check will not work

Hi,
I can't get the system-wide spell check to work on my MacBook Pro with the Command + Shift + ; (semicolon) keys. Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? The Spell-Check on the Fly will work.
Thank You,
Guy

I was able to zap the pram and that solved the problem.

I updated to firesfox 4.0.1 and now spell check doesnt work and cant find one that does. Can I go back to the previous one that worked properly?

I changed to firefox because I wanted spell checker. After updating to 4.0.1 this no longer works. I cant find a version that does work with the new firefox. Is it time i went back to explorer?

tried that and it says not compatable with firefox 4.0.1

How can I get Apple to pay attention to improving spell check and grammar?

I love this company and the products they develop.   I am embarrassed at the number of Apple products that I have at this point. However, I have to say that the spelling and grammar check on Mac Mail is awful. I am a terrible speller, and am constantly forced to go to Google to find the correct spelling of a word that seems to totally confuse Apple spell check. But here is the thing, you often need only have one letter missing or incorrect for Mac's spell check to show no results.
For example: cannibalize.   Try spelling it with one "n" and the spell check will show NO results. Use two N's correctly, but replace the "i" with an "a" and again it is completely useless. Obviously, this is ridiculous. What good is a spell check that get's confused if you are one letter off of the correct spelling? There are thousands of these examples, and sadly, I seem to find them all.
Moreover, when it does have suggestions, they are in a ridiculous order as well.   If it suggest 5 or six words, it generally seems to suggest extremely long tail (rare) words first, and the have the most commonly used words listed last (or again, not at all).
Grammar is similarly awful.   It is the ONE area as far as I am concerned that is clearly better on Windows and Google Apps, and yet seems so basic these days. It's been around for 20 years for goodness sake.
I bring this up in the hopes that a truly motivated developer will fix core functionality.   In the meantime any tips for me (besides snarky advice about learning to spell).
Rick

I totally agree with you, I as well, cannot compose any complex messages in Mail, however I'm am stuck using a browser extension like "Gramercy" to assist me! Maybe after many replies Apple will address the issue
