How can I set check spelling to catch words with numbers in them?

I sometimes inadvertently type a number in the middle of a word, e.g., "typ9o," but the spell-check feature never catches them. Can I change a setting to get spell-check to catch these kinds of words?

Hi, Again,
Thanks for the info. And for a quick reply. ;-)
I checked my current cop0y of LibreOffice (I replaced OpenOffice.org with it several months ago). LibreOffice uses Hunspell as well. I had not checked the boxes to check words with numbers or all-caps as I had previously done in OpenOffice.org, so for all this time I have been thinking it would flag errors in those when it wasn't. Must have made LOTS of mistakes I didn't catch in that time. ;-(
In LibreOffice, go to Tools => Options => Languages => Writing Aids. You can choose to enable spelling and grammar checking (not sure what the grammar checker oes, since it was already enabled but I have never seen any evidence of it). The below that is a section of checkboxes where you can specify what is and is not flagged by the spell checker. I checked the words with numbers and capital letters choices. So now it will catch all the acronyms I haven't added to the spell checker dictionary.
I was looking for the same sort of choice in Firefox but didn't see it. Perhaps there is an API in Hnnspell the Firefox developers can use to add this choice as a checkbox, the way it is in LibreOffice.
I realize this may be perceived as a low priority, but I would certainly appreciate seeing it in a future update of Firefox. At least making this post helped me get the settings i wanted in my word processor.
Take care and God bless.
Don :)

    How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
    If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

  • How can I set the SRQ bit on GPIB with LabView ?

    Hello,
    I am developping an application with LabView RT on a PXI RT system. This application acts as an instrument (non controller GPIB), and I need to assert the SRQ line. How can I do that ?
    I know the ibrsv function, but I can't find it in LabView, and I can not use it through a DLL call since GPIB DLLs are not compatible with Real-Time.
    Thank you.

    Hello Alfonso,
    It sounds like you might be getting errors -200279 and -200278.  (In the future, if you post the actual error codes, it helps us to know exactly what is happening).  Error -200279 happens when you are performing a hardware-timed acquisition (meaning the data is sampled according to a clock signal on your board), but your LabVIEW program is not reading the values from the buffer allocated for that task in computer memory fast enough.  Basically it's a buffer overflow error.  It means older samples have been overwritten before you attempted to read them out.  As the error message suggests, "increasing the buffer size, reading the data more frequently, or specifying a fixed number of samples to read instead of reading all available samples might correct the problem."  For more information on this error, please see the KB (DAQmx) Error -200279 During a Continuous, Buffered Acquisition.
    Error -200278 happens most often when you have configured a finite acquisition, but are calling the DAQmx Read function in a loop.  If you want to perform a finite acquisition, you should only call DAQmx Read once.  For more information on this error, see the KB Error -200278 at DAQmx Read.
    Finally, please refer to Abhinav's earlier post about the sample rate on the 9237 module.  As he described, the NI-DAQmx 8.3 driver will only allow you to set the sample clock to integer divisions of 50k (50,000/n, where n can be 1, 2, 3...13).  Since the maximum divisor is 13, the smallest sample rate that can be used is 3.846 kS/s.  You can check what value the driver is actually using for the sample clock by reading from the SampClk.Rate property of the DAQmx Timing property node.
    I hope this helps!  Let me know if you have any questions about what I've described.
    Best regards,

  • New iMac 21.5". How can I set up a new user account with access to all the files of the original user account?

    Running Mavericks on a 2013 iMac 21.5". I want to set up a second user account with different settings that meet the requirements of specific software. I need the files to be accessible by both users. I have made both the main and secondary accounts administrators. I have also enabled file sharing for both. Neither account can see the other's files in Finder.
    How can I make all files accessible to both accounts? I read that administrator accounts automatically can see all files on the computer, but it is not working out that way. I have restarted the computer, to no avail.

    Comcast only offers POP accounts, and one way to set up the account and enter all the settings before it connects to the mail server, might be to do it Offline:

  • HT2589 How can I set up an apple I'd with no credit card on an ipad mini?

    I have set up an apple I'd but I can't put any free apps on my ipad mini as it won't let me choose the none option when I get to card details as I don't have a credit card and can't use a bank card. How can I do it without a card plz can someone help me feel like I'm going round in circles.

    There are instructions on this page for creating a new account (it won't work with existing accounts) without giving a credit card number : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 e.g. select a free app in the store and click on 'create Apple id' when buying it - if you are doing it on your iPad then you will need to log out of your account first by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Stores, otherwise that account will be used

  • How can I set up a List of Figures with extra text?

    I'm writing my Art History dissertation, which includes a substantial group of figures at the end.  My advisor has requested that I caption the images, but also provide a List of Figures before the actual images begin.  I've got it figured out this far--I'm using the Table of Contents feature to automatically number the captions and then pull the caption text back to the List of Figures. 
    Here's the snag:  I need to include attribution information about where I found the images I'm using, but only in the list of figures.  My advisor specifically requested that I not include this information in the captions as he felt it cluttered the images.  How can I include small amounts of text (for example "After Jones 1987, Fig. 22") for hundreds of images in the List of Figures without putting this info in the captions themselves? 
    Of course, just typing the info into the List of Figures doesn't work--as soon as the list is updated the extra text gets erased.  I've been playing around with hidden layers, but when I create a new hidden layer with text frames the numbering of the original layer is disturbed.  Any ideas about how to preserve the numbering and include the extra information in the List of Figures without adding it to the visible caption? I'd be very grateful for any help.

    Perhaps at the end of your caption, in a [None] coloured text, 0.1 pt size? Don't put it into a separate paragraph, 'cause you'd need to pick this up as well for your TOC. To edit this invisibly small text, you can use the Story Editor.
    (And I got quite far suggesting making it Conditional Text, which you would normally hide, having it show only when you generated the List of Figures, before a few dormant neurons woke up and demanded attention.
    'Course it would work -- you would get the extra text in your list, and if you hide the conditional text again, your document would reverse to "normal" state. However, making the conditional text visible may cause your text to reflow, and thus your regular Contents would be okay but the List of Figures -- generated with more text in your document! -- could well be off by a few pages ...)

  • How can I set up a WD My Cloud with my Airport Extreme - I can't get it to open ports 80 and 443?

    For remote internet access to the WD My Cloud Mirror, I have been advised that ports 80 and 443 must be open in order to reach the WDMyCloudMirror.  My Motorola Gateway (Surfboard SB6141) is connected directly to my Airport Extreme (WAN port) which is in turn connected to the WDMyCloudMirror (all by ethernet cables).  I do not have FULL instructions on how to properly manually configure the Airport Extreme to open the ports.  I have tried an earlier posting which provides many of the steps, but not all of the required information is included (how to determinge the IP address to be assigned, etc.).  I did the best I could with the information given, but the test using "YouGetSignal" showed the ports as still closed and attemps to reach the WDMyCloudMirror by the internet failed as well (of course).  The WDMyCloudMirror has enough Apple "stuff" included in it (software, I suspect) that an Apple legal acceptance is required for its set-up, yet Western Digital Tecnical Support is unable (or unwilling?) to help with this aspect of its configuration required to work within the Airport Extreme environment.  I have returned the WD My Cloud Mirror to Amazon as "not able to work", but I have not given up the hope that I can eventually get the ports open so that I can get this cloud device, or one similar, to permit remote internet access.

    Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
    It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
    Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
    In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
    But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

  • How can I set up a WD My Book with my Airport Extreme

    I just got a WD My Book and want to set it up as an external drive for back up using Time Machine.  I have an Airport Extreme and using the USB port hooked it up to the Airport.  With in the Airport Utilities I am able to see the WD My Book when I click on manual and then go over to disks.  Im at a loss now at this point.  How do I finish this off and get Time Machine working?!  I opened up Time Machine and there are no disks that show up for me to select.  I am hoping someone can help me out!!!!!

    Are you sure on this? I read the support article, but unless there was a recent upgrade that changed this, I was able to do this for some time using an Airport Extreme
    I'm sure it's not supported by Apple. Here is what Apple says:
    Time Machine can’t back up to an external disk connected to an AirPort Extreme, or to an iPod, iDisk, or disk formatted for Windows
    Now, to clarify......I never said that  you could not do this. I said that it was unsupported.
    Most of us who have tried this find that oddly....it does work....for a period, sometimes a few weeks, or even a month or two....before you start to have corruption issues.

  • How can I set up a home wireless network with Comcast high speed internet?

    I just signed up for Comcast High Speed Internet. I was able to get my Power Mac onto the internet. However, I connected my Airport Extreme and am unable to get it to recognize that I have an internet connection. I want to set up a wireless network in my apartment. Comcast tech support said that I only have one IP address.
    Any suggestions as to how I can get my wireless network up and going? Thanks!

    Should I change set up so that cable goes from the cable modem directly to Airport Extreme and then use the ports on the Extreme to run Ethernet Cable to Power Mac and other devices?
    Yes
    As an aside, would this setup allow me to hook my iBook up to Airport via Ethernet cable and let it get into Internet that way?
    Yes

  • How can i set up lightroom for tethered shooting with an eithernet cable

    So I have my Nikon d4 set up with Nikon Picture control so that it will download to my laptop with an Ethernet cable but it downloads to a file on the hard drive - I can choose what file, etc but what I want to do is take advantage of Lightrooms tethered capture so I can set white balance, set up sessions, etc.  LR tethered capture works fine with a USB but a USB is too short and for the life of me I can't figure out how to make it work with an ethernet cable - supposedly it can be done but not by me!  Any ideas out there?

    What are the requirements and steps for arranging to receive this large file using File Transfer Protocol (FTP)?
    Usually, we don't speak of "receive" when using FTP, since the file is transferred from server to client, so it's more of a case of "download".
    At your end, it's simple. You use an FTP client; under SL, that includes Finder and Safari, so you don't even need to get any additional software.
    At the other end, it's more complicated; the 'sender' must set up an FTP server on his machine.
    Alternatively, you can set up your own Mac as an FTP server, and have the 'sender' connect to you with an FTP client and upload the file; but, if your Mac lives behind a router, then you have more work to do with the router settings.
    That's why it's much easier to use the file sharing services mentioned above -- if they are available in both sender's and receiver's locations. (Keep in mind that some countries block access to all those mentioned -- except perhaps <www.transfer.ro>, of which I know absolutely nothing.)

  • TS3988 How can I set up a new icloud account with a new apple id when I have an old account for which I have lost the password and security questions etc

    I have changed isp and no longer have access to rescue email addresses and have lost my details. I have set up a new apple id and want to set up icloud with this but cant get past the icloud preferences pane with the old address. How do I get around this?

    Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account (this disconnects the device from icloud but doesn't delete any data on icloud or on other devices).
    If you then want to sign back in using a different ID, do so on the same screen.

  • How can I set up Gmail on my iPhone with a different domain name?

    I'm an ASU student so my email ends in @asu.edu. However its a Gmail account and I just got a new iPhone and I would really like to set it up through the mail app but it won't let me. Every time I type my email and password in the phone says: "The user name or password for "imap.gmail.com" is incorrect"...but I know it isn't. Is there a way I can do this?
    Thanks!

    This should work; one of my e-mail accounts is my own domain through Gmail.  Make sure your username is set to your full e-mail address (like [email protected]) rather than just your username.
    Did you set it up on your iPhone as an IMAP account, or as a Gmail account?  It should work perfectly using the Gmail setting.  It can work as IMAP, but you need to jump through a few hoops to get there.

  • How can I set a default currency for all my Numbers 03 files - currently it's Lithuanian!

    I have Numbers 03, and I downloaded bought some extra templates through an app in the app store. Graphic Node Version 1.6
    When I open the templates, the default currency is Lithuanian, and it appears that I can only adjust the currency cell by cell, column by column page by page.
    I want the default currency for any of my work to be Aussie Dollars so I don't have to change the spreadsheet each time I want a new file.
    Can this be done?/

    G'day 5508,
    Some thoughts. Try System settings first (this may not be the culprit).
    System Preferences > Language and Region > Advanced > Currency > Australian Dollar
    I can only adjust the currency cell by cell, column by column page by page.
    Forgive my stupidity, but if the currency is a cell format in the template, can you select all currency cells at once, then change the currency? You will have to do this separately for each Table, but within a Table, you can select a range of cells. Quicker than cell by cell.
    Once you have reformatted the document that emerged from that template, save the document as a template with the same name to overwrite the old template.
    Hope this helps, mate.
    Regards,
    Ian.
