How can I turn off that stupid feature that shows previous spellings?

I do not want previous words or passwords to show up as an option when I start typing.

Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:
#click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
#highlight an entry in the drop-down list with the mouse or cursor Down key<br>do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
#press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to delete the highlighted entry

  • How can I turn off that Maveriks at iMac is scanning continuously for new devices?

    Hi, I have a iMac (early 2008) updatet to 10.9 Maveriks with Bluetooth mouse, mousepad en keyboard. I listen at home to music with a Onkyo TX-NR626 A/V receiver (with Bluetooth) via my iMac, iPad and android device.
    When I startup or wake up my iMac, Maveriks is always staring to scan for new Bluetooth devices?!. Than every time, my receiver (also when the receiver is turned off) is turning on and change to Bluetooth mode.
    I can't turn off the Bluetooth function at my Onkyo TX-NR626 A/V receiver. With Mountain Lion, I didn't had this problems.
    I want to turn of the continuously scanning procedure after startup or wake up on my iMac.
    My question is:

    Kinda funny... I found this article while searching for an answer to my question:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
    At the very end of the article, it mentions the "bug" that only one app on Windows can play direct sound at a time. That's exactly the "feature" I'm looking for on the Mac. Funny how one person's bug is another's feature.

  • How can I turn off the Pinch feature while in IE Browser yet continue to use the writing feature

    I found that I can use a stylus pen while in a browser with my HP TouchSmart 300.  It works flawlessly to write however when I rest my hand on the screen (to write)  it recognizes my hand as one point and the stylus pen as the other and the pinch feature makes my screen big or small.  If I could turn off the pinch feature yet leave the writing feature on, all would be perfect.  Can anyone help, please

    It's not possible, it doesn't use pressure on the screen to sense your stylus or hand, it uses the sensor array around the screen.

  • Acrobat: How can I turn off the "smart" feature of the select tool

    I am trying to figure out how to turn off the feature of the select tool in Acrobat which auto-completes words of my text selections. This feature is a huge nuisance while trying to select code in my textbooks and has caused me to mis-copy examples many times.

    The smartness I am referring to is when I try to select text Acrobat will attempt to automatically select the entire word (I can reverse the whole word selection by selecting back one character then going forward, but when I reach the first character of the next word Acrobat will again try to select the entire word). Worse is when I am trying to select text starting in the middle of a word, Acrobat will automatically select the entire word when I get to the last character.
    In another program this option is disabled by a clearing the checkbox "When selecting, automatically select the entire word".
    I've found an alternative PDF solution which does not have this nuisance, however, this is not an ideal solution...

  • How can I turn off the security lockout features on my Palm Treo 650?

    how can I turn off the security lockout features on my Palm Treo 650?
    I know the password, but don't seem to be able to turn off the feature.  
    Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

    If you press the Home button and open Security, you can change "Auto Lock Device" to "Never". Does that do what you want?

  • How can I turn off the images of avatars that post...

    how can I turn off the images of avatars that post in this forum? they are annoying.

    I think the avatar pictures help a lot to visually tell apart the different users participating. Pictures are way quicker to discern than user names are.
    Do you want them removed because they distract you or you find certain ones disturbing (You can easily flag those to the moderation team)?

  • HT201150 How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?

    How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?
    With the position of the power button on the Retina MacBooks, any mistake turns off the screen in the middle of a presentation or any activity using a projector or big screen — a huge waste of time to wake up the display, enter password, have the projector sync back, watch audience disconnecting from what was being discussed, etc.
    This is very annoying, and seems to add to the increasing collection of options Apple decided to make by itself instead of allowing the user to choose.
    Come on Apple guys, I'm using my Mac because I want options and lots of preferences to tweak to my needs.
    If I needed the lobotomized version I'd be using my iPad!
    Any way (official or hack) to change this button back to its proper funcionality?
    Thanks!

    Not what you want, but you can get the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by holding the power button
