How does the track pad auto correct miss spelled words?

How does the Track Pad auto correct miss spelled words, unlike the mouse i can no longer double right click to change the spelling??

Hey hoopsmiller,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you want to turn off auto correct in OS X. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
Since you have already tried to turn it off for all apps, you can try individually.
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).
Mac OS X 10.6: Checking spelling and grammar
If you don’t see the “Spelling and Grammar” command in the Edit menu, the application doesn’t provide the Mac OS X spell-checking feature. Check the application’s preferences or menus to see if it has its own spelling checker.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
Mario

How does the mouse pad work?

I'm using a friend's macbook pro with 10.5.7 with the mouse pad that responds to one and two fingers. How does it work? I find I touch and the page moves in ways I did not intend. I understand it responds to one and two finger touches but do not know how to use it. can anyone help?

Satelite P500-12F will not load the track pad drivers!

Hi, I just got a driver DVD for this lappy and its a self intall of all drivers that are missing or need updating, when ran I was told the track pad driver was missing and started to load it but it won't I tried a force load but hat also failed, the track pad has not worked since getting this second hand could the track pad be disconnected from the main board?
Would this make the driver fail to load please?
Any help would be truly appreciated.
Many thanks, Wayne..

Hi, When I bought this second hand the guy removed the hard drive for data protection and put in a new drive so no Toshiba software on ths one, the dvd was bought from ebay and is a driver dvd from USA no operating system it just self installs the drivers after windows has been installed, as in OP the track pad was not working and I thought it may be just the driver fault but it will not load it even with a forced install so I am just wondering if the track pad is actually connected, when the disk is inserted it searches for missing drivers and looks for updated drivers on the disk and it says then it is missing this driver but will just not install it, very confusing indeed.
Regards, Wayne..

How does the remote object connect to the correct host

i have had a small doubt on how the remote reference manages to find the correct host to call the subsequent methods after a sucessful lookup.
given a rebind or bind to the registry, the registry only stores the alias and the remote reference, now imagine a client calling a lookup on the registry would only get the remote reference, and not in which machine the remote object is found.
what i wanted to know is how does the client or atleast the remote reference returned by the registry correctly connects to the machine where the remote object is located. i dont think its stored in the stub bcos the stub is a complie time stuff.
i would be pleased to have a comprehensive answer for this.

The membership in the group communication framework is always accurate and upto date.Up to date to the moment when you check. Not up to date to the moment when you make the RMI call.
i could basically chk if this ip is available in the membership list.Complete waste of time. It doesn't matter what you check ahead of time, you are still trying to predict the future.
And you still have to deal with ConnectException etc from the actual remote method call. And the way you will deal with that in your situation is exactly the same as what you were going to do if your ahead-of-time check failed.
So just catch the exception(s) and deal with the problem there.

Did Lion eliminate the finger gestures for show the previous page and show the next page? I've checked system settings for the track pad and it looks like the got rid of one of my favorite finger gestures when browsing the internet. How do I get it back

I've upgraded to LION. It looks like LION eliminates the finger gestures within internet browsing that used to yield navigating to the previous page or navigating to the next page. I think it was a 3 finger swipe to the left and a 3 finger swipe to the right. It looks like this has been eliminated. I've gone into the system preferences and went through all the new settings for the track pad finger gestures. I've not found a combination that allows me to swipe on the track pad to do the page forward / page back function.
How to I get this back? I was my favorite one and now I can't get there!

For going back to the previous page try a 2-finger gesture. Two fingers in the other direction will take you back.

I have had two instances of having a downloaded album "scrambled" while playing on appletv, I.e. the track listing remaining correct but having the wrong songs play. Once this has occurred the album does not play correctly. Any help with this issue?

I am having problems with Apple TV scrambling albums while playing from iTunes. The track listing remains correct but the songs play out of order and not all of the songs seem to in place, I.e. a song that played previously under one title will play as a different title. Any thoughts or help? Thanks.

A bit confused by your statement

Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
You can try to borrow and use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

How do you control the track pad?

The track pad seems to have a mind of its own after Lion installation. Seems to copy everything it crosses over. Is there a way to have it behave like it did in the Snow Leopard?

HT1343 Does anyone know what to do if the track pad stops working?

Is there something that can be done when the track pad stops working?

Not much..

You could attempt an SMC reset afterwards. Likely you need to bring your machine in for service.

Anyway to change how the track pad behaves on Yoga 13?

Hi
I just bought a Yoga 13 and while I can change the speed the mouse moves is there anyway I can change:
1) the speed the track pad scrolls a page?
2) can I change the direction the page moves when I move my hand?
ON the pad when I swipe downward the the page moves upward ?
Is there anyway to make it to where I can swipe down and have the page move down?
The pads I use at work work that way and its far more natural to me that way
Thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The're all in Control Panel>Mouse>Device Settings>Settings
Turn off Ënable Reverse Scrolling and you can adjust the scroll speed in the same place

Why does the curser move across desktop without touching the track pad?

The curser has started to move across the screen without touching the track pad. There's no mouse connected. All networking connections are turned off. As the curser moves across the desktop, it opens new folders??? It will open as many as a dozen new folders before it stops at the left side of the screen and wouldn't you know it, the warranty expired last month! Any help to figure out a fix would be appreciated.

Where is the magnet located in the track pad and display lid?

where is the magnet located in the track pad and display lid?
have to see if theres a problem with the display magnet because when i close the lid, the sleep function does not work.
am using a fridge magnet to move around the track pad to see if this will activate sleep mode. im begining to wonder if its worth just going with out the auto sleep mode and maybe try n get some money of what i paid for it (it was a refurb machine)

as a guess, around the middle of trackpad, maybe half an inch moving from the lead edge towards the screen
also, give it a few seconds to activate in any one spot - it's not instant

How does the SDK and Reader handle printing with orientation?

I have a document that I want to print, and it contains a portrait page on Page 1, and a landscape page on Page 2. Acrobat Reader correctly prints these pages (with a single print job), and I'm assuming it's because of the auto-rotate option on the print dialog. Is this a feature of Reader, the API, or how the printer handles the request. I've tried printing this PDF just using the JAva API, but the orientation remain portrait for all pages. How does the Adobe Acrobat API deal with mixed orientation pages? Ignore the fact that I did my test printing with Java, because my question is whether or not the auto orientation is a feature of the UI, the SDK, or the printer (or a combination).

Same as the current Ipod Video or "Classic" there is an option under settings to toggle between original aspect ratio or Full Screen.
