Help me turn off the spell checker

The iApps are usually so intuitive but for some reason I simply can't find a way to turn off the extremely annoying spell checker in Keynote. Not only do I strenuously object to being second-guessed on my spelling by a piece of software, I also get very angry when it tries to foist US English spellings on me when I'm not an American and my system is set up for international English. What's next, an animated paperclip??
Can someone please help me switch it off (Keynote 06)...?

Thanks Kyn, don't know how I missed that...
The remaining issue is the choice of spelling dictionary - I still can't work out how a user with international or UK English settings is being prompted to use US spellings in place of correct English spellings.

  • 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.

  • How do I turn off the spell check voice?

    When a word suggestion pops up, a voice says the word.  It's driving me crazy...

    I had the same problem and used your recommendation.  Thanks so much wjosten for helping me get rid of that annoying problem!

  • Turning off Text Spell Check

    Easy one this...hopefully. Can someone tell me how to turn of the spell check type function in SMS mode. It's causing me problems and even re corrects itself when I've gone back and changed it.

    Its not going to be changed. Apple designed it that way on purpose, and it's considered a "feature" of the iPhone - one that has been much touted and advertised, called "Predictive Text".
    I agree that I would like to see an option to turn it off -- I could type much much faster on the iPhone without the predictive type...but people have been requesting this feature for over a year (along with cut and paste, etc) and there is no indication it will be changed at any time soon.
    One caveat though -- touching the X and dismissing the suggestion really DOES work over time -- once you have dismissed a suggested word twice, it really isn't suggested again. Over the course of a couple weeks, it dismisses most of the words it wrongly suggests. Pain yes, but ultimately it goes away if you consistently touch the X and dismiss it instead of pressing any other key.

  • How to turn off the authorization checks for a object in infoproviders?

    Hi - how can I turn off the authorization check for an object (ex: 0orgunit) in infoproviders?
    I have 0orgunit as an authorization-relevant object and is used in one of the cubes. When reports are run for this cube, this is causing authorization issues. The object is present in other cubes also but I have to remove or turn off the authorization check of this cube alone. How to do this? Please help.
    Thanks,
    Raj.

    Hi Raj,
    Srinivas, is right , however in BI7 the correct transaction is RSECADMIN and not RSADMIN.
    In BW3.5, use RSSM transaction to do thins.
    OR
    Go to transaction RSECAUTH ---> Choose  the authorization object that has been created for org unit(and has been assigned to the user). Go to change mode. Remove the cube from the dimension 0TCAIPROV
    If you are using old authorization concept in 3.5 or in 7.0
    Go to RSSM. In the checks for infoprovider, enter your infoprovider name. Choose change.Here you will see a checkbox to switch off the authorization.
    Hope this helps you,
    Best regards,
    Sunmit.

  • How do I turn off the automatic check for update on opening Firefox? I want to turn off that "what's new" page.

    How do I turn off that automatic update that always brings me to the "what's new" web page? It was interesting the first time, but now it is just an irritation. I can check for updates on my own, so I want to turn off this feature. It just started up when I upgraded to Firefox 5. I can't find a place to stop it from checking and bringing me to that web page. Also, I can't stop it from checking add-ons every single time I open the browser.

    did you check the suggestions mentioned in the article i posted in my previous post ??

  • Help! Turn off the automatic alphabetizer

    Every iTunes songlist I make automatically alphabetizes every song in the list.
    There's no way to turn off this feature that I have discovered.

    Are you trying to drag in a playlist or in a smart playlist?
    You can't arrange your library or a smart playlist by dragging. You can only choose to sort by one of the columns.
    You can drag songs up and down a regular playlist if you click in the column shown here:

  • How do I turn off the spam check that requires me to decipher and enter wierd text?

    Also how do I get rid of e-mail address options in the e-mail address box that pops up when I sign on?

    Hello, bandvhartford!
    The "spam check" you are referring to is called a captcha box and is commonly used by most websites to verify that you are not a robot entity, as many of them attack websites daily by trying to register on various websites to either slow down the server connections by creating a countless amount of accounts, or to simply register on forums and community websites to SPAM and advertise for diverse products.
    To get rid of a saved e-mail address or login credentials, you may place your mouse pointer on the item you desire to remove and press the 'Del' key of your keyboard.
    You may also go to '''Edit -> Preferences -> Security -> Saved Passwords''' and again delete the desired credentials.
    Thank you for your valuable time and please let us know if this solution resolved your issue.

  • As a follow up from my recent question, I turned off the compatibility mode under all and regular, clicked out ok, ok then then went to itunes and played a song as they said to, and then tried to open the store and STILL CANNOT OPEN STORE, please Help!!!

    Turning off the compatibility mode by deselecting the check box under each thing that it wants did nothing for my access to the itunes store, still a white page with "itunes store" in the middle of it.  This is getting rediculous! Someone with computer smarts please help, I am at the end of my rope!

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:
