How do I turn off autocorrect in numbers?

When I type 'est' autocorrect keep turning it into 'set' after I press the spacebar. I tried going to "language and text" in "system preferences" to turn autocorrect off, however Numbers keeps autocorrecting.
How can I stop Numbers from changing my texts?
Thanks.

Hi,
In Numbers 3.0.1 you can turn off auto-correction by choosing Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Correct Spelling Automatically (a checkmark is removed). In this case, automatic correction stops working only in Numbers.app but works in other apps.
>> Check spelling and grammar in documents
You can also turn off automatic text replacement by choosing Edit > Substitutions > Text Replacement (a checkmark is removed).
>> Replace or substitute text in documents

How do I turn off autocorrect in Mail?

In Mail, I would like to turn off autocorrect, which makes me say many ridiculous things! How do I do that? I've looked and looked and can't figure it out. Thanks!

Hello there Centime,
It sounds like you are wanting to turn off the spelling correction feature in the Mail application. You should be able to do that with these steps from the following article:
OS X Yosemite: Check spelling and grammar
For a specific app: In the app, choose Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Correct Spelling Automatically (it’s off when a checkmark isn’t shown).
For all apps: Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Keyboard, click Text, then deselect the “Correct spelling automatically” checkbox.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

How do I Turn off Autocorrect?

I updated Skype to 6.22.0.107 and I was VERY upset when I found out that it had autocorrect!I have already tried going to my PC settings and turning "correct misspelled words" to "off".
How can I stop the autocorrect? Please help! it's very annoying!

This is horrible still. After all this time I would've expected this to be fixed by now . Skype should allow setting the autocorrection independent from the OS!!! I often Skype with people in different languages than my OS / default language. This causes Skype to completely screw up those messages because it's trying to correct them, not recognising I'm typing in a different language. I NEED to keep autocorrect enabled for the OS, but disabled for Skype.
This is non-negotiable.

How can I turn off autocorrect in Word 2013?

I've read many messages related to this question, with various suggestions, but none of them work. I find no tools/menu
link by which I can find autocorrect options. Left or right-clicking on "proofing" yields no means by which to access autocorrect for purposes of turning it off. Please help.

How do you turn off autocorrect in Mail?

Mail in 10.7 autocorrects everything. When I type Macintosh HD, it changes it to Macintosh HAD. I change it back to what I want, it insists on correcting me. There's no way to turn it off--all the options in system preferences and Mail preferences that claim to control this option don't work. If I were the responsible manager at Apple, I would fire whoever came up with that misfeature immediately if not sooner.

Harry,
Have you checked Language & Text?

How do I turn off automatic spelling check in Numbers?

How do I turn off automatic spelling check in Numbers? I've unchecked "Correct spelling automatically" in System Preferences but that annoying red underlining continues to appear. In Pages you can turn it off but I can find no way to do so in Numbers.

Pretty much the same place as you find it in Pages:

How do I turn off IP Flood Detection?

I've perused the forums and have concluded in my computer-technically-naive mind that this could lead me to internet bliss...... I have been experiencing excrutiatingly slow or never-loading web pages.    Often, after a couple of minutes of waiting I will get a [cannot connect] message, yet when I press the reload button in the message, it then loads immediately.   This has been occurring for several weeks now. Occurs across all browsers that I am using - Safari, Chrome and Firefox.   Very frustrating.   So.... how do I turn off IP Flood Detection?
I found an assist on-line as follows: enter http://192.168.0.1 in the address bar.
User name: admin
Password: admin
On status page, click Firewall.
On the Firewall page, disable/uncheck IP Flood Detection.
Unfortunately, the admin/password given doesn't work.   Does anyone have updated ones?... or perhaps another solution?

I have an Apple Airport Extreme 5.6.1.
5.6.1 is the version of AirPort Utility, which is the software that is only used to configure an Apple AirPort router.
AirPort Utility 5.6.1 will only work with the Apple routers......not with a Bell modem.
If you have an Apple wireless router, please look on the bottom of the device for the model number. All AirPort routers have a model number that starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.
If you only have a Bell modem, we would not be able to provide support for that product on an Apple support site. You will need to connect the Bell support folks for assistance in that regard.

How can I turn off iCloud without losing my documents?

How can I turn off iCloud without losing my documents?
When I try to sign out Icloud I get the warning (( If you turn off Documents & Data, all documents stored in Icloud will be removed from this Mac))
I don,t want to remove my document on my computer, what should I do?

If you are refering to documents such as Pages and Numbers files....
The only way around this is to "save as" you icloud documents using the associated app to a local folder on your mac. Then turn off icloud.
Of course, when you sign off of icloud, the docs are removed from the mac, but remain in icloud. In the future when you sign back in, the documents are available to you again.
Oh, and the icloud documents are also stored locally in ...
~/Library/Mobile Documents
Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
You can move these files to another folder to save them.

It is not there in Outlook 2013 if I turn off Show week numbers in the month view and in the Date Navigator. While in Outlook 2010, it can't be turned off completely.

How do I turn off the Icloud erase when the phone is turned on?

My husband is a ship captain and He thought he lost his phone, I went through all the procedures of changing his account numbers etc on email
only thing he has on his phone is facebook and email . He didn't have the find my phone app on when he lost it so I deactived it on our cell provider
and from I cloud I set up the find my phone to erase it when its turned on.
Well yes he found it, so I have set back up with the cell service but how do I turn off the find my phone from erasing it when he turns it back on?
And what is it going to erase??
Will he still be able to use it as a phone at least?
thanks for your help!

Too bad. It completely erases the phone so it will be like it was when it came out of the box. He will need to go through the initial setup screens on the phone again to reactivate it before he can use it, and it will require entering his iCloud password to do so.

Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.
