How to reset URL AUTO FILL?

I have a few sites that I've mistakenly hit RETURN before I've finished typing:
for instance:
nikonrumors.com comes up as nikonru.com (a non-site)
simply because I hit return to fast that ONE time.
How do I reset those types of things?

If you mean that when you start to enter an email address it completes the address with the incorrect one then the answer is no without restoring the iPad to factory defaults/new iPad.

How do I remove auto-fill items?

Hi,
When I type in "w" as the start of a url in the address bar, a list of 4 or 5 previously visited sites pops up immediately. I have tried disabling auto-fill, deleting all my bookmarks and reinstalling them, deleting history, cache etc., and it still happens. Actually it's stopping me using Safari as my browser, and I'm now using Chrome instead. How can I fix this issue in Safari?
Thanks,
Richard

HI Richard,
The only alternative at this time is to turn on Private Browsing.
From your Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Private Browsing.
Safari won't remember pages you visit, history, or AutoFill information.
When I type in "w" as the start of a url in the address bar, a list of 4 or 5 previously visited sites pops up immediately.
Most Safari users are complaining about this feature. You can provide feedback here.

How do you get auto fill to use the right E-mail address?

Hi Everyone
My address book card has multiple E-mail addresses on it. Yet when I want to use auto fill to fill out a form, 100% of the time it's just one address I want to use. The problem is safari always uses only one of the addresses and it's not the one I want to use. Is there a way to change which address (or any other field) from your address card is used in auto fill?
TIA
K

Since you don't say how many email addresses you have on your own card or which of them it's picking, I'll assume it's choosing the first one in the list. If that's correct and it's not the one you want, you need to change the order of addresses to make the one you want be the first one in the list.
Other than that, you cannot set a default item for any field.

How to Transfer Safari Auto-Fill Passwords to Chrome

How do you transfer all of your saved auto-fill passwords from Safari into Chrome?
It won't let me do it in Preferences/Personal Stuff/Browsing Data
The box "saved passwords" is grayed out and it won't let me select it!
Thanks in advance for any help!
HARDWARE/SOFTWARE I AM RUNNING:
2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
OS 10.6.7

The box "saved passwords" is grayed out and it won't let me select it!
Are you referring to: Manage Saved Passwords ??
Your passwords are stored in Keychain Access /Applications/Utilities
Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux; Settings on Chrome OS).
Click the Personal Stuff tab.
Adjust your password settings in the "Passwords" section:
Select "Offer to save passwords" if you want Google Chrome to prompt you to save your password every time you sign in to a new website.
Otherwise, select "Never save passwords" if you don't want Google Chrome to ever save your passwords.

How do i get auto fill to work in numbers

hi i have a list of text in my spreadsheet colume that changes on each line. please tell me how to use auto fill thus allowing me not to write the same taxt over and over

please tell me how to use auto fill thus allowing me not to write the same taxt over and over
Hi Dakota2710,
I also agree that the attitude toward finding ways to work with Numbers 3 could sometimes be a little more positive and helpful.
Regarding your question:
That behavior, now called "autocomplete text in cells", has disappeared from Numbers 3.0 but Apple says it will reintroduce it sometime within the next six months.
Meanwhile, If you frequently enter repeating values in a column and don't want to type the same text over and over again you could consider formatting the cells in the column as Pop-Up Menu. In many situations this has clear advantages over "autocomplete." It's easy to set up:
If you've selected the whole column before formatting as Pop-Up Menu, your existing values in that column will pre-populate a menu automatically:
Then you remove the values you don't want in the list, such as the column header (and possibly some previous spelling errors too!):
And after this easy one-time setup all you have to do thereafter is to choose from the pop-up list when you add rows:
In Numbers 3.0 there's no keyboard shortcut to activate the menu such as hitting the spacebar in the old Numbers (hope they'll add one in upcoming versions) but the Pop-Up Menu approach has some advantages over autocompletion: no spelling errors or lack of capitalization when there should be capitalization, etc.
And should you ever want to take your Numbers with you, in a touch interface pop-ups are much more efficient than typing the first few letters of items.
See this thread for this and other workarounds for Numbers 3.0.

How do I edit auto fill information, eg zip code

My zip code has changed. How can I change the auto fill data to reflect the new zip.

You can highlight that entry in the drop down list and press the Delete key to remove it.<br />
Firefox should remember the new ZIP code when entered.

How do you delete "auto-fill" addresses in Mail?

When you start to type a name in Mail, it gives you a list of email addresses associated with that name. Problem is, it'll list multiple email addresses for the same person even if you've deleted old addresses from Address Book.
Is there a way to delete some of these "auto-fill" addresses?
Thanks

How can i activete auto fill in iTunes?

how can i activate auto spelling in itunes?

Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process - selected under the Photos tab for your iPod Touch sync preferences with iTunes should remain on your computer. iTunes serves as the transfer conduit for these photos only. These photos are not stored by iTunes.
If you have a later model iPod Touch with a camera, photos in the camera roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera which is not handled by iTunes.

How to create an auto-filled in field within a database ?

Hello,
I look for a way to get a database field automatically filled in when adding a new record with a generated value:
The value of this field should consist of the actual date, a random alphanumerical or numerical string of five digits and some fix characters.
For example: 20060618-19771-test
"20060618" is the actual date in the format YYYYMMDD.
"19771" is the randomly generated numerical string (alternatively alphanumerical).
The two "-" and the string "test" are fix.
Does anyone have an idea how to realize this ?
Thank you for all your assistance.
With kind regards,
Tobias Eichner.

Hi Tobias,
A much more useful post than the previous one liner.
The first problem you mention is the most difficult to get around using an entirely AppleWorks solution. AppleWorks does recalculate the whole database whenever a field definition is revised. The result of any calculation depending on the RAND() or NOW() functions Both Gunnar's and Francesco's solutions run into this problem as both use RAND() to generate the random number part of the field's value.
Yvan tackles this problem by calculating the value outside AppleWorks, using an AppleScript. This looks promising, but on running the script, I've noted a couple of problems (an error message when there's a single record in the DB; non-filling of the 'autofilled' field), and will drop a note to Yvan about these.
The most interesting (because easiest to implement)
one unfortunately depends upon the date formatting
set in the software which is different from the
desired field value.
My assumption here is that you're referring to Francesco's solution. The formatting problem (order of yyyymmdd and removal of the separators) is addressed in Gunnar's solution (which is essentially the same as Francesco's). See below for some revisions to address the recalculation problem.
And the first solution appears a bit too complicated
for me (sorry, I'm not a programmer, I tried to copy
it but failed).
The AppleScript solution is difficult to generate, but once written (by Yvan and/or others—you'll have only minor editing to do) and saved (by you) is simple to use (requires only selecting a menu item to create a new record with the field already filled).
If you can assist me, please let me know. Otherwise
don't mind, either I have to switch to a different
product (AW appears outdated in many ways) or
generate these field values manually as I currently
do (simplest solution but works
Switching to a different product is certainly a possibility, and it's true that AppleWorks is old software and that it is unlikely to ever be updated in future.
Revisions to Gunnar and Francesco's solutions:
As mentioned previously, the primary problem with these was instability of the value due to recalculation of the RAND() value in the formula. In the revised version below, a pseudo-random value is obtained by converting the time-of-day when the record was created to a text string, then selecting the final five characters in that string.
YEAR('Date')&RIGHT("00"&MONTH('Date'),2)&DAY('Date')&"-"&RIGHT('Time',5)&"-test"
The solution requires creation of two additional fields:
'Date' Type: Date, Options: "Insert current Date"
'Time' Type: Time, Options: "Insert current Time"
(The first is the same as Gunnar's 'helpfield1'.) Neither field has to be included in any layout; they exist only to provide data for the 'Autofill' field.
Advantages:
•The Date and Time fields are stable; once filled their values will not change. Consequently, the calculations depending (only) on the values in these fields will also be stable.
Disadvantages:
•The value in 'Time' is the fraction of the current day that has passed when the field is created. At certain specific times of day, this fraction, expressed as a decimal, will have fewer that 5 digits after the decimal (Example: at exactly 12:00 noon, the fraction is 0.5). That may lead to an error or to the center portion of the 'Autofill' data taking the form "-.5075-".
This will likely be a minor annoyance. Such a record may simply be deleted before entering any other data, and a new record created. Or the formula could be revised to strip the intial two characters ("0.") from the string, append the remainder to a string of five zeros, then take the final five characters of the result.
•The formula should be fine for NEW records. But for records already in existence when the formula and the two supporting fields are created, the Date and Time will be the date and time of creation of those fields. That will lead to a distinct lack of 'randomness' in the 'random' number part of the fields' value.
The solution, if necessary, is to add an IF() function to the formula that copies the value from the existing field if that field has been filled in, and generates the value if the existing field is empty (as it would be for a new record). The existing field should be removed from all layouts to prevent its being filled in new records, but should NOT be deleted from the DB in order to preserve existing data.
Revised formula (has not been tested) ('oldfield' is the field that holds the data in existing records):
IF(LEN('oldfield')>0,'oldfield',YEAR('Date')&RIGHT("00"&MONTH('Date'),2)&DAY('Da te')&"-"&RIGHT('Time',5)&"-test")

Barry

How to reset an auto filter in a BEX report.

Hi experts!
When executing a BEX report, some variables which are set up for selection (it can be filled with any value) can not be changed for some users, but normally is possible for all.
We would like to reset the values fixed for that users from the report itself (I know that it can be done with RSRT, but the user can not access to that transation).
Thank you very much!

Meaning, you want to give default value for some selection variable for selected users.?
I would be possible, i think That would be complicated, like you have to set the authorization object in the infobject level for those users. and i think this way we can make it.

How to reset the auto-complete email adresses?

How can I delete old email addresses from auto complete?
I have been having trouble trying to find out how to delete the old typed email history. For an example, if I go to send a picture to Bob, I start typing Bob and it comes up with 3 old emails of his. Not a big deal except it's hard to keep track of what emails are current.
In other words, after deleting the old emails in the contacts it still shows up when I start typing a person's name.

I am having the same problem on my IPad. It appears these old email addresses are saved in the memory and from what I read, there is no way to delete them regardless if you delete the contact. Hopefully in a future update that can be resolved. It is very annoying though.
