How do I turn off word prediction on my new macbook pro?

Need to turn off the word prediction on my macbook pro... it's a new 15" newest software etc... forums and email are a problem with this feature...

System Preferences, Language & Text, Text - uncheck "Correct Spelling Automatically". Most applications also have a setting for this under Edit > Spelling and Grammar.
In various applications you can also adjust the preferences for text substitution via Edit > Substitutions.

  • How do I turn off my disc drive on my macbook pro?

    There is a stuck disc, and I can't get to an Apple store/service provider for a few days.  I think that something is blocking the disk drive, no matter what way I try to force eject, it attempts it, and then it just re-starts running the disc.  It also sounds like it is mis-aligned, with a loud variable whirring as it spins.  Is there any way to just turn off the disc drive so it stops trying to run the DVD?

    So have you tried all the tricks posted online? The best one for me is to take a thin piece of plastic like from a salad container. Fold it over and make two "lips". Insert that into the drive and it will help guide the disc out.
    Is your MBP under warranty? Then take it in. Don't void your warranty.
    Otherwise use the iFixIt guide:
    https://www.ifixit.com/Device/MacBook_Pro_13%22_Unibody_Mid_2012
    for the non retina.
    Disconnect the optical drive cable. If it's really stuck and you feel up to it you can take the drive out and and take it apart (guides all over the net) to remove the disc.
    However it sounds like the disc isn't that stuck so any of those tricks should work.

  • How do I turn off frequently visited in safari new tab.

    How do I turn off frequently visited in safari new tab.  Note, I still want favorites to show.  But I feel it is inappropriate for safari to track frequently visited sites.  I wish I could use private browsing more, but I hate that keychain doesn't work in private mode.  Also, why can't I turn history completely off?

    To turn on private browsing, tap Safari, then tap in the lower-right corner. Tap Private to turn private browsing on.
    Note: If you're using an iPad, tap , then Private.
    Tap again > turn off private.

    How do I turn off pop-up blocker on new iPad if it is "greyed out" in safari settings?

    '''Diego Victor''', this is for Firefox on Android. The Tools->Options is for Firefox on Windows only.
    I think the only way still that you can turn of popup blocker on Android version is in '''about:config'''
    Try this.
    Type '''about:config''' in the Location (address) bar and filter for '''dom.disable_open_during_load''' and set it to '''false'''.
    After you are done you should enable the popup blocker again.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Most of YouTube videos support HTML5, so activate HTML5 > http://www.youtube.com/html5
    If after turning on HTML5 you can't watch videos, download Flash > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer Then, close Safari, install Flash and restart the MacBook Pro. Finally, try to watch a video in YouTube

  • How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

    How do I load on Office: Mac onto my new MacBook Pro when it doesn't have a disk drive - I don't want to have to purchase another copy.

    Glad you were able to solve your problem. For the benefit of others who may find this discussion later, allow me to suggest another possibility.
    If you have access to another Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion with an optical drive, you should be able to use the Remote Disc feature to access the optical drive on that other Mac.

  • How can I turn off word wrap in the View Source output?

    I'm trying to extract HTML from Word and one way to do that is to save the Word file as a .htm file and then View Source in a browser and copy that. But the words are wrapped in the View Source file. I want each paragraph to be all on one line. Is there a setting for the View Source feature that will turn off word wrap?
    Once I have that done and copied into a plain text editor, I will use Search>Replace to get rid of all the stuff Word puts there and just end up with the simple paragraph tags at the end of each paragraph, all on one line.

    You can disable wrapping and syntax highlighting in the View menu in the Edit > View Source window.
