How do I turn off Auto-Complete in my Numbers 3.2 on iMac

When I'm typing in the colums it keeps doing a drop down menu with various versions of what I've already typed.  I've looked everywhere and found one reply on here that says I have to go to general settings but I can't even find that.
Please help, it's driving me crazy!!
If I could just tab on the one I wanted that would be fine but I have to go down the list and the press enter then tab. Too complicated.
Lol

It's here (in Numbers > Preferences):
Uncheck 'Show suggestions when editing table cells'.

    How do you turn off auto complete in finder?

    A Google search turned up Stopping Autocomplete with "Go To Folder" Function and this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2601699?threadID=2601699  Knowledge Base has a few articles on "auto complete" pertaining to certain applications.  Didn't see any articles though about it for the Finder. 
    Yes you are correct.  I didn't know it was a "feature."  Thank you for pointing that out.

  • How do i turn off auto complete in lion os

    Can anyone tell me how I can turn off the autocomplete function in Lion OS. Whenever I finish typing a sentence it's made up all kinds of words I don't want!
    I'm finding it rather frustrating so hopefully there's a simple solution.

    Text replacement is controlled by each program.
    Typically, look in the Edit menu for the program. In the Substitutions submenu is an item named "Text Replacement". Try unchecking that one.
    You can also select the "Show Substitions" item in that same submenu. In the screen that then opens, click the "Text Preferences..." button. That will open the System Preferences panel for Langauge & Text, specifically the Text pane of that prefs. In that pane you can control exactly what is substituted for what.

  • Cannot turn off auto-complete

    I know how to turn off auto-complete in adobe reader, but I have 1 user where the option is grayed out and I cannot change the setting. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    I wish I knew the answer to that and many other questions. We are all just other iPad users like you trying to help each other sort through any problems that may arise. Frankly, I would love to be able to turn off auto correct and keep spell check on just like you. The only recourse we have right now is to offer our feedback to Apple about it and you can do that by clicking on this...

  • How do I turn off auto split in iPhoto ?

    How do I turn off auto split in iPhoto? I have about 8,000 old photos I would like to import but it splits them in to loads of events. Would just like to leave them in year folders.

    First try, if importing a sample folder with two images with different days, more than a week apart, will import them as only one event on your mac and  the autosplit is behaving the same for you as for me.
    May be I will have to do it folder by folder which will take for ever.
    Would it be possible for you to join some of the folders before importing?
    Or join your events in iPhoto after importing. Creating yearly events is fairly simple (tested in iPhoto 9.5.1)
    Create a smart album for each year (File > New ) with the smart rule "Date is in the range ...."
    Then select all photos in this smart album and use the command from the "events" menu "create event". This will collect all photos in a new yearly event.
