How can I turn off text auto-correct in Number IOS?

I use Numbers as a project workbook and it drives me insane I cant turn off text auto-correct. I use a bunch of abbreviations that Numbers wont allow without constantly changing to the extent that its almost useless.

Auto correct is controlled at the system, not apps, level (with a few possible exceptions, but Numbers isn't one of them).

  • HT3704 How can I turn off the "auto correction" for images when I am trying to move an image but it moves it so I cant put the image exactly where I want it on pages 09 on macbook pro

    I hope you understand this

    I think you are talking about auto-alignment.
    Hold down the command key as you drag the image.

    How do I turn off text auto-formatting in Keynote?

    You may uncheck some preferences in the Pages > Preferences menu item.
    You may also define your own custom default template.
    But you certainly are aware of that because it's described in the PDF User Guide delivered with every copy of iWork.

  • How can i turn off an auto renewing subscription to Netflix ?

    How can i turn off an auto renewing subscription to Netflix ?

    Interesting turn of phrase.   Are you suggesting that Netflix has none standard terms and conditions that could activate penalties if the user casually unsubscribes.
    I am not familiar with their terms - I've never had a subscription with Netflix. Personally, I will always check the terms of any business I do business with and know how to cancel before committing to a contract.
    Edit: I just took the time to browse through their terms which appear rather straight up:
    https://signup.netflix.com/TermsOfUse
    From the OP's post, I also did not assume that their subscription was through an iTunes app as a direct subscription was/is available. I do not know if the terms might differ if going through iTunes (which would make sense if Netflix would be losing money by offering their service through iTunes?).

  • How can I turn off the auto renewal for Hulu plus?

    How can I turn off the auto renewal for Hulu Plus?  I can not seem to follow the instructions given...I can not launch I tunes and have a menu appear.......
    My special needs son accidentally signed up for this trial offer and I want it cancelled immediately.  I have received an email from them, but can not get it to work and I have been trying for over a week.......feeling frustrated.

    How/where are you trying to stop the subscription ?
    If you are using iTunes on a PC and the drop-down menus aren't showing at the top of iTunes then see if control-B gets them to show, or try alt-S and see if that gets the Store drop-down menu to show. You should also be able to cancel subscriptions by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPod Touch an logging into your account.

  • HT3529 I no longer have my iPhone 4s so how can i turn off i-messages for my number?

    I no longer have my iPhone 4s so how can i turn off i-messages for my number?

    Hey there fwhitson,
    It sounds like you no longer have your phone but need to unlink your phone number from the iMessages service. According to this article, this is what you do:
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
    Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How can I turn off the auto login on Netbook running Ubuntu OS

    During the initialisation of the machine AUTO LOGIN was already highlighted.
    Unfortunately I only noticed it as I hit the next key.
    How do I turn off the auto login?
    I think I change the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf , but would like confirmation as this is a slightly different version of Linux.

    Decided to give the full Ubuntu system answer to this and it works just fine.
    In a terminal issue the command: sudo /usr/sbin/gdmsetup
    This will bring up the gdm gui and there you can turn off auto login, and the timed login.

  • How do I turn off the Auto Correct in Spell Checker

    I turned this on thinking I would like it but now it is driving me nuts because I can't turn it off. When I go back into Edit/Spelling & Grammar, all of my options are grayed out. I can see where it auto correction is checked to turn it on but it is grayed out so I can't turn it off.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Which application are you referring to? Mail? If it's Mail, go to Preferences, click on composing, and choose "never" under Check Spelling. If it's a different application, please let us know which one it is; in most cases, you should have options in that app's preferences.
    This is in Apple Mail.
    Actually the command comes under the "Edit/Spelling and Grammar" menu and as I mentioned, all the options, one of which is auto correct, are grayed out and therefore not accessible to me.

  • How can I turn off text recognition when converting PDF to Word?

    I just converted a PDF to Word.  It was an image file, but the converter recognized certain lines in the illustration as text elements, so some of the pictures are "chopped up".  Is there a way to "turn off" the text recognition feature so that I can keep my images intact?  Thanks for your help!

  • How do I turn off the auto correct "annoyance"?

    It is become a nuissance rather than a help. If it worked like Windows where it just underlined words it thinks are inccorrect, instead of automatically changing them.
    Thanks for the help.

    Actually, the phone does both - separate functions.
    To disable auto-correction:
    Settings > General > Keyboard > Auto-Correction > OFF

All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

    Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
    Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
    Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.
