    How do I turn auto-correct off and still have a spell check?

    I do not believe this.. you can not disable auto correct without disabling the spell checker.. I am struck dumb by this.. I recently bought a mac for the first time.. ive always used windows.. there are more thngs like this than i expected.. I actually find this so ignorant I am lost for words.. this auto correct is a nightmare for me.. and has already caused me a lot of trouble because I have sent emails where words have been changed and i didnt notice and I have unknowingly insulted people.. i use a regular spell checker quite often but apparently I simply have no choice with safari.. oh well I am going to have to find another browser then.. goodbye safari!.. I also use a lot of shortened words and names etc etc.. like for eg I used the shortened word for problems "probs" and it changes it to "probe" and then i go back and change it back to WHAT I WANT TO SAY and it changes it AGAIN!!!!
    Does anyone else feel like this is yet another example of how, more and more, we are being treated like morons?
    Ok I'll try to stop ranting.. the real point is it should be possible to have a spell checker without auto correct..

    how do I cancel auto-correct on an iPod Touch?

    Never mind, I just figured it out using the "more like this" entries.

  • How can I get auto correct to recognize a name used very often? It is in my address book but auto correct does t recognize it?

    How can I get auto correct on my iPhone 4 to recognize a name that is already in my address book? It doesn't recognize it and offers no suggestions.

    The cleanest way to get things straight now and as you proceed into the future with Time Machine is to start over. If the new machine is setup the way you want and has all the data placed onto it I suggest you erase and re-format the TM backup device and start a Full initial TM backup.
    I believe this will pay dividends now and over time and avoid future problems for you. Jst before going to bed crank up the Full TM backup and it will be all done by morning time.

    how do i disable auto-start in Adobe Quick Launch; elements 3.0

    I guess i don't remember that in photoshop elements 3, so could you explain a little more about what your asking?
    What operating system are you using?
    Unless your talking about the welcome screen that gives a choice of what to start when ckicking on the pse 3 shortcut (welcome screen, organizer or editor)
    Window>Welcome in the editor or organizer
    Or auto launching the adobe photo downloader when you have a camera or camera card connected.

  • How do I disable auto complete in the Mail program?

    I have to type e-mail in more than one language on my iPod Touch, and Mail's auto complete feature is causing me a lot of trouble. It's making ridiculous word suggestions and typing these words if I don't touch a teeny-tiny X in the auto complete tag. The X is so small that often as not my finger ends up confirming the suggestion, rather than deleting it.
    For example, if I have to type the German word "kann" (which I very often have to, because it means "can"), the Mail program types in the name of the Indian language "Kannada", which I NEVER need.
    One solution would be to switch the language settings before typing e-mails, but that takes too much time, and the iPod Touch doesn't have support for some of the languages I have to type.
    How can I just disable that auto complete feature? I don't see it in the manual.

    Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Auto-Correction -> OFF.
    But this is a global setting, not just for the Mail app.

  • How can I import auto correct form old version

    How can I import all my auto correct list from Pages into the new version 5, they have all been deleted

    The Auto Correct function is now the System Auto Correct in System preferences.
    You will need to re-create your list unfortunately.
    Give Apple feedback on the issue, either in the Pages Feedback or the App Store.

  • How do I disable auto-launch of third party applications (i.e. TeamViewer)  at startup?

    I've loaded a few third party applications like TeamViewer which installed themselves as startup applications which I cannot disable in the system preferences login items.  The obvious answer is don't load these apps but that being said, how do I disable them now that they are loaded without uninstalling to prevent them from launching automatically during startup.  I can quit them after they launch but I'd like to prevent them from auto-starting during startup.  Any insight would be appreciated.

    Look in TeamViewers preferences for this:
    Uncheck it.

    For the move tool you can choose to disable auto selection, auto select a group, or auto select a layer. By default though the path selection tool autoselects a layer. How can I disable autoselection?

    I can’t seem to reproduce what you describe.
    Please elaborate, possibly with the help of some screenshots.

  • How to PERMANENTLY disable auto-run write trials of qttask.exe and outbound

    I installed QuickTime player on my WinXP.
    As I found out my firewall pops up frequently since then informing me that qttaks wants to write itself in the auto-start folder.
    Furthermore I observed several internet connection attempts.
    So QT want to call come to Moms server at apple?, eh?
    This is nasty and really annoying similar to MS.
    How can I disable both PERMANENTLY?
    I did not found options for that.

    It is probably trying to load the "Content Guide" and you can turn this off in the Player Preferences.

  • Can I disable auto correct for space only?

    A few iOS updates ago Apple changed auto correct behavior to replace letters on the bottom row with space when it sees fit. That makes it an absolute pain to use when typing in Swedish as many words are created by concatenating words without any space in between. Therefore I want to disable that feature of auto correct but use it for other cases. Is that possible? If not, Apple, please change it back! At least for Swedish (and other relevant languages).

    Not possble.

  • How do i disable auto-click in the bookmarks bar?

    I recently went to FedEx to track a package and I save the link in the bookmarks bar. When I show all bookmarks the display for the bookmarks bar shows a column between the name and the url. The title of the column is "Auto-Click".
    How did this happen and, more importantly, how do I get rid of the Auto-Click column?
    This is on an iMac (intel) running OS X Lion. The Safari version is 6.0.3.

  • How can I disable auto-switching desktops?

    I've long appreciated the spaces/mission control feature of OS X. However, it seems more oriented to organizing desktops by application rather than by project.
    Like many users, I suspect, I use different desktops for different projects, each of which requires a variety of applications (finder, word docs, spreadsheets, etc). When I'm working on project 1 in desktop 1, I never want to be whisked away to desktop 2. In fact, I never want to be switched to a different desktop automatically. If I click on an application, I want it to open a new window for that application. If a new iteration of an app can't be opened (ie, Mail), I'd like it to pull Mail to me rather than send me off to it. Aren't apps supposed to come when we call, not the other way around?
    I have unchecked "...switch to a space with open windows of that application" in System Prefences, but my desktop continues to auto-switch, especially with Finder.
    In short: is there a way disable auto-switching entirely? I'd like to be able to assign windows and navigate manually without being constantly pulled away from the project I'm working on.
    Thanks for the help; I really appreciate people spending their time helping others on forums like this one.

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode.  Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
