  • Mail spell check hangs on last misspelled word

    Hi everybody,
    I have a bit of a dilemma that is quite annoying, and I would love it not to be. My spell checker in Mail (OSX 10.4.10) hangs on the last word when spell checking a message. I am able to check my spelling and choose Ignore/Guess/Correct etc. but when it reaches the end of my email it stops. Spell check will identify the misspelled word, but will not allow me to make corrections or ignore the word like it used to. The familiar tone and empty spell check box is no longer to be found.
    But this does work in textedit! No problems what so ever. I have tried to scour these forums and tried a few things, but still nothing. I have also noticed this problem occurs in another user account.
    I have checked the Ownership and Permissions of the spell checker file, deleted preference files, re-installed Mail by itself, performed an archive and install, completely reinstalled OSX and still nothing.
    So now if any of you have an idea please let me know.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sebastian

    You're welcome.
    I do not have that checked
    Well, you should. Leaving messages on the server indefinitely may end up clogging up your mail account there and cause this kind of problems. Just specify After one week or After one month if you don't want messages to be removed from the server immediately.

  • Spell checking won't work

    After the last update to Photoshop CS6 Extended (now version 13.0.1 x64), I find that the spell checker won't work. I get the following message:
    Everything worked just fine just prior to the last update. Any thoughts?

    have you installed the appropriate dictionaries for the said program?
    I think pidgin uses aspell. you will also need to install the language dictionaries like aspell-en or any other that you want.

  • In gmail the spell checker underlines the ends of words that are spelled correctly. Annoying at best.

    running firefox 16.0.1 on pc with windows 7. This seems to have started with new version upgrade. In gmail the spell checker highlights last parts of words that are spelled correctly.

    You probably see this bug (fixed in Firefox 21):
    *[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812638 bug 812638] - (font_size_bloat) TB is inserting/adding loads of redundant/incorrect/random <font size="x"> tags in the middle of corrected words (partially erased with backspace or DEL, then retyped) with certain valid font size attributes in HTML message source; causes spelling issues
    *[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790475 bug 790475] - Spell checking broken (fixed in Firefox 19)

  • Trying to spell check email, I get this: "This language is no longer available for spell checking.

    Firefox does automatically check my emails like it does when I use Word Perfect. When I select spell check, I get this message: "This language is no longer available for spell checking. Please check another in the spelling options box."
    When I click on the spelling options box, I get the same message. I have never changed any settings as regards to spell checking

    Which language is selected if you check that via the right-click context menu > Languages in a text area?
    Is that dictionary still installed and enabled?

  • Why wont the spell check function work in a fillable form? Please help deadline looming.

    Spell check wont work. Have read through various internet help solutions but no luck so far.
    I have windows 7 64 bit.
    The forms are on a CD-Rom (from about 10 years ago) but I have up to Adobe date software on my PC.
    Edit-Preferences-Spelling shows I have English United Kingdom selected and the check box, check spelling whilst typing is ticked.
    When I press F7 and start it finds nothing even though I have made deliberate mistakes to check if it's working.
    Any help would really be appreciated.

    It's possible the author of the file disabled the spell-checking option for this field.

  • Spell check won't "ignore all"

    I have a document full of acronyms (ANTH, CUST, etc.). When I spell check, I ask it to "ignore all" thinking that should mean what it says. But the next instance of the acronym comes up again as a misspelled word. What am I doing wrong?

    LOL it works now, thank you.
    I didn't think of the simplest thing.
    Strange problem, though (TextEdit has worked well for years).

  • Spellcheck finds misspelled words but will not correct them on right-click

    Before I upgraded to FF4, if there was a misspelled word on a field, I could right-click the underlined word and suggestions would show up in my menu. However, since the upgrade when I right click the underlined word I get the standard right-click menu without any suggestions. The standard being "Back, Forward" etc.etc.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Spell Check won't "learn."

    Appleworks 6.2.9. When I run a spelling check the "learn" option is gray, so I can't add new words or names, etc. to the dictionary. I've look at AW preferences and there is no place to change the setting. How do I change that setting? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    It's not a preference setting. You probably don't have a User Dictionary selected. Before AppleWorks can "learn" new words you need to create a User Dictionary. With a WP document open, go to Edit/Writing Tools -> Select Dictionaries... Click "User Dictionary" then click "New" -> Save.

  • My PC won't find my airport extreme.  Please help so I can access external hard drive and printers and internet.

    airport extreme (newest version)  has external HD connected and two printers.  everything works fine from my MBP.  My PC on the other hand wont even access the internet while connected to airport via ethernet.  Please help me.

    Sorry I don't really understand.... there are no partitions on the drive.  How do I repartition it?
    And should I use "erasing free space" or "erase" for wiping clean my drive of everything?  Erase seems to be faster last tiem I tried.
    Thanks!

  • How to troubleshoot issues that Spell Check is not working in Outlook 2013

    When composing a new message in Outlook 2013, we may notice that Spell Checker does not recognize misspelled words. When we enter a completely garbage word in Outlook, it won’t be marked as misspelled with a red wave underline. When encountering such issue,
    we may follow the troubleshooting guide below to correct it.
    1. Make sure you are not typing in the signature area.
    Outlook doesn't perform a spell check in the signature area, so if this is the case, spell check won’t work. To confirm if you are typing in the signature area, right click in the area you are typing, if you see a menu listed all you signatures instead of
    the normal context menu, then you are not typing in the email body.
    If you want spell check work in signature area, use Quick Parts instead of Signature. For more information, see
    Quick Parts.
    2. Check the Set Proofing Language option.
    In Outlook, click New Email to open a new message, click
    REVIEW tab > Language > Set Proofing Language, a dialog titled
    Language will open.
    Please first make sure English (United States) is shown above the double line. If not,
    you must enable the language for it to be available to check spelling.
    Second, make sure “Do not check spelling or grammar” check box is not selected.
    Note: If this method fixes the problem, repeat steps 1 through 3 to reopen to the
    Language dialog box, and then click Set As Default.
    3. Enable Check spelling as you type.
    To enable the option in Outlook, go to File > Options > Mail, click Spelling and Autocorrect button. In the Editor Options dialog, select the check box labelled “Check spelling as you type”.
    4. Make sure that you are not using a standalone version of Outlook or mixed versions of Word and Outlook.
    The “Check spelling as you type” feature doesn’t work when using a standalone installation of Outlook or mixed versions of Word and Outlook. However, the manual spell check always works. In this scenario, we can set Outlook to
    always check spelling before sending. To do this, go to File > Options > Mail, select the check box before “Always check spelling before sending” in the Compose message section.
    5. A registry key exists overriding the spell checker
    To remove the registry key, please follow these:
    Important This article contains information about how to modify the registry. Make sure that you
    back up the registry before you modify it.
    a. Press Windows key + R to open the Run command.
    b. In the Run box, type regedit, and then press Enter.
    c. Locate the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Override
    d. Delete or rename the subkey.
    e. Exit Registry Editor. Restart Outlook.
    6. Recreate the NormalEmail.dotm and Normal.dotm template
    If the two templates above are corrupt, this issue may also happen. To fix it, please browse to:
    drive:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates
    Rename the two templates, then restart Outlook to see the result.
    7. Problematic add-in
    Add-ins may cause various issues in Outlook, so if you have tried all the suggestions and still no luck, try starting Outlook in safe mode to see if a problematic add-in is the culprit. To do this, exit Outlook, press Windows key + R to open the Run
    command, then type outlook /safe and press Enter. If the problem disappeared in safe mode, then go to File > Options > Add-ins and disable the suspicious add-in to resolve the problem.

    Not all locales come with a dictionary installed for licensing reasons.<br />
    If you do not have the en-US locale then check that you have a dictionary installed (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and selected.<br />
    <br />
    You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.<br />
    Also make sure that [X]"Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a tick.<br />
    You can also try to toggle the "Check Spelling" item off and on again.<br />
