How to disable "corrections" as I type in Mail (and/or everywhere)

Dear all,
Most features that are commonly considered "handy" I find extremely annoying. At the top of the list is automatic correction of the text I type, most notably automatic capitalisation. I tend to use abbreviations, e.g. like this. It's extremely annoying to have to type the word after the abbreviation, to go back and undo automatic capitalisation of - in this case - "like".
How do I turn off automatic correction?
Also, I've read a bunch of posts about "fixing" it to behave "correctly," but considering that I tend to switch between English, French, Dutch and German a lot, auto capitalisation is just always a pain.
Kind regards,
Philip

I wish Ereins (That was Ernie's name I was trying to type) was correct. I turned on spell as you type in Mail prefs, found it a pain, turned it off there, find it is NOT turned on in Edit menu, and still it tries to correct as I type, making me waste a bunch of time. Spell as I type is turned off in Mail, both in refs (that was to be prefs, but Safari now wants to spell as I type, too, even though it is definitely not turned on in Edit menu) and Edit menu.
Mail continued to do this even after I quit mail, even after I restarted machine after turning off the ref (?) in mail preferences.
There must be a way to get rid of this elsewhere. Does anyone know how.

    How to disable safe mode on xperia z1,power and volume button doesn't work

    Hi rafharum,
    Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    A simple restart to the device would generally resolve this issue, however if the power key and Volume key are not working they may very well be causing the handset to execute safemode when ever you power the device on.
    If this is the case, you will need to get the handset to a service agent for assessment. Please use the link below to contact Sony Mobile Customer Care directly.

  • How to disable keyboard shortcut for Type-And-Transfer

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a macro in Excel that I want to use the ctrl+shft+h keyboard shortcut. However, Lenovo's Type-and-Transfer tool has hijacked that shortcut so everytime I try to use the shortcut within Excel it launches the Type-and-Transfer tool. I've looked everywhere and cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to disable this keyboard shortcut from launching the Type-and-Transfer tool. Anybody have any idea?
    Thanks in advance,
    jd

    Hi,
    here is what I would check in:
    Registry:
    - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IBM
    - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\LENOVO
    - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IBM
    - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lenovo
    <sorry as I don't havea system with this shortcut type I cannot find the exact same key combination>
    My second thought is going more in the direction of an application, that is called Keyboard Customizer
    Try this one, if that will fit your request.
    Let me know any update, that you can give on this situation.
    Cheers

  • How to disable the "autoload" of pdf in preview and url in Safari

    I hate that new feature,
    How can i disable the "resume" of pdf in preview and url in Safari on every time i restart those prg?

    Sorry Noel - create an extended desktop and open photoshop - create a file the same size as your second monitor and drag it over to the second screen. Press F to make it full screen and Ctl 1 to make it actual pixels. We now have just what we require for projection mapping onto say a building assuming the second monitor is a projector. Now take a brush and stamp it in the middle of your page - which is on the second monitor, photoshop itself is on your Ist monitor. If you press hold Shift down and stamp your brush at the edge of your full page you will see it jump too the side. It will also do this if you try to drag a selection too close to the edge. The page will begin to scroll to accomodate the selection which is perhaps useful in some circumstances but in others like to projection map it is a horror because we need the page to remain exactly where it is at all times or it will no longer be `registered` to the architecture previously done. Beleive me
    this can be deeply frustrating when you are out in the cold trying to get all the facets of a building mapped, but even when in the warm trying to do it with a theatre set. 
    Should you have a solution then you would indeed become much revered in these parts  - best wishes  John   --

  • How can take a Custom Data Type in TestStand and create a LabVIEW DataType?

    I am using LV 8.2 and TS 3.5.
    I have an existing Custom Data Type in TestStand and I want to make a LabView Type Def.  The TS DataType contains 11 elements: a Visa Resource Container of 2 elements (String, DeviceName and Number, Session), 9 Numerics and 1 String Array.  For Backwards compatability, I cannot modify the TestStand DataType.
    Thanks,
    Jean

    Hi Goldee,
    You should be able to do that. It's a two step procedure.
    1) Creates in LV a custom datatype that maps 1:1 yours TS datatype.
    2) Go in the TypePalette in the properties of yours TS Datatype and check into LV Cluster Passing Menu'. Here you can Connect a specific Field of the TS datatype to a Specific Label of the corresponding LV datatype. Once you've done it the TS datatype will result modified, I mean "starred" but the change you applied should not impact the datatype structure itself only the way you pass it to LV.
    Have a good day

    Hi,
    1. You can create new PR and PO docu types at the following path:
    For PR docu type:
    First you need to create number range for docu type or you can use existing number range also. The path for creation of no. range is
    SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Number Ranges
    Then create PR docu type at below path and assign no. range to PR docu type here only
    SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types
    For PO docu type:
    Follow same procedure as mentioned for PR docu type. Path is
    SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Order->Define Number Ranges
    SPRO>Materials Management>Purchasing->Purchase Order->Define Document Types
    If you want to create PO referencing new PR docu type, link the PR docu type to PO docu type at below path:
    SPRO>Materials Management->Purchasing->Purchase Requisition->Define Document Types--> Link purchase requisition - document type

  • How do I remove "other users" folder in mail and on my iPhone

    On one account only I have "other users" folder that lists all of the folders of every user on the server. On my iphone I have to scroll past pages of other user folders to get to any folder named with anything after "O"
    Does anyone know how to get the server to stop showing "other users" in both mail and iphone mail?

    Unfortunately that is really the only work around since
    Comcast uses POP3 and not IMAP like Gmail or
    iCloud.
    I had received an email quite some time ago that they
    were beta testing IMAP with select customers but I doubt
    if it has gone much further than that.

  • Mail (again!) .. how do I clean all existing settings of Mail and start again?

    I have (Yosemite) Mail linking into BT.  I have a problem that occurred with Mavericks and continues with Yosemite Mail. Mail works fine for a month or two then goes wrong... almost a pattern!  Usually I put it right by deleting the account and set it up again and it works for a while.  I am so frustrated because I do not understand the intricacies of software and programming.  Now it is refusing to send emails in both my and my wife's account.  iCloud works (after I deleted and set it up again).  But I need our BT separate accounts.  Is there a way of deleting all the old bits and pieces of files that might be 'remembering' bad settings and starting again? Is there a fix?  I am alarmed by the smart-alec comments of people with 'level 5/whatever' who say there is no issue.  There damned well is!

    There are a plethora of problems noted here with BT's email service, but similar could be said for various others.
    You could delete the ~/Library/Mail folder along with the containers and preferences.
    Note that deleting the Mail folder will delete all of your email stored on the Mac.
    Inside the Mail/V2 folder are folders for each account. You could start with deleting those and the Containers, Prefs.
    Containers: ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Preferences: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    However, if it works for a period of time, then stops working, it isn't dredging up an old setting from somewhere. The settings are what they are at the time; no history.
    What can possibly happen, and does seem to happen with Mail periodically, is that the Keychain stores multiple passwords for the accounts.
    Open Keychain Access, select login keychain, and then search for your email accounts. Delete any entries you have for the accounts.
    Then, open Mail and enter the correct passwords for the accounts. That will ensure there is only one password being attempted.

  • How to disable a single cell in a table (and not the whole column)

    Hi there,
    I've got a webdynpro table with a few columns, rows can be created dynamically through a button in the table toolbar.
    Depending on the value of a certain cell I have to disable another cell (in the same row).
    I tried to manipulate the view in the modifyview but no joy. I also tried to manipulate the attribute property through the coding below:
      DATA lv_knttp TYPE knttp.
      lo_nd_kostl = wd_context->path_get_node( path = `MULTIVALUES.KOSTL` ).
      lo_el_kostl = lo_nd_kostl->get_element( ).
      lo_el_kostl->set_attribute_property(
      attribute_name = 'LTEXT'
              property       = lo_el_kostl->e_property-enabled
              value          = ''
    but it disables the whole column!!!! I just need the cell to be disabled (I thought the code above, through the lead selection, would affect a certain cell only - but I was wrong).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    using cell variants you can do this.,
    check this article: [Cell Variants in WDA|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/WebDynproforABAPCellVariants]
    Instead of binding the read only property of table as a whole , just bind the read only property of column group of table., You can do this bu drill down the table and select the required column and bind the read only column.,
    then In onAction Event of button .,
    loop the table, if condition satisfied set the read only property to true else false.,!!
    hope this helps u.,
    Thanks & regards,
    Kiran

    To copy a standard WT and assign a new name with the same attributes and characterstics:
    IMG > Personnel Management> Personnel Administration> Payroll data> Recurring Payments and Deductions. Copy any standard Wage Type.
    Check assignment of WT to a Symbolic Account :
    (The WT will inherit the Symbolic account from the copeid standard WT)
    Go through SM30 to Table V_T52EL_NOFM. Make neccessary changes to the Symbolic account, if needed.
    To create a new Symbolic Account and assign it to the WT:
    Payroll --> Payroll (country) --> Posting to Financial Accounting --> Activities in the HR-System --> Employee grouping and symbolic accounts --> Define symbolic accounts
    To assign the WT to the new symbolic account (same as table V_T52EL_NOFM):
    Payroll --> Payroll (country) --> Posting to Financial Accounting --> Activities in the HR-System --> Wage Type Maintenance --> Define WT posting attributes

  • How to disable duplicate message from imessage on Mac and Messages on iPhone?

    I Just purchased an iPhone 4s. Previous to that, i have been using messages on my macbook pro. When i finally got the two synced up together so that messages were being delivered to my phone when i was away from my computer, i noticed that i received notifications for messages on my phone even when i was on iMessage on my mac. Is there a way to change this so I don't get double the notifications, or do I have to disable iMessage on my phone every time I'm at my computer using messages?

    You are correct.  The only way to stop it, is to turn off iMessage.  Your frustration is actually the reason they made iMessage.  It was designed so you could be working on your Mac, and if you recieved a text message, you could reply with out having to locate your phone.  I understand it can be frustrating because in my expeirence, when I'm away from my desk, anyone with access to my computer can then sit there and enjoy my conversation with out me knowing about it... I have since started logging out of Messages on my Mac when I walk away.  then no one can see it, and when I log back in, the messages are synced back up again.  Good luck!!  Cheers!
