Ios spell check problem

I have some big problem with ios spell check specially on safari and yahoo forums and alike
1- sometimes , very often but not always, when i click on a word to be corrected.. The correction options flash for a minute and then immediately switch to options. like copy paste.. suggest.. Select etc..
I click on suggestion. The corrections flash for a second and the immediately switch to copy select suggestion... Not giving me a chance to pick the correction!
2- it learns miss spelled words and suggests misspelled words as correction..... Real annoying and confusing.
3- sometimes it does not even detect a wrong word and underline it with red... I have to review my whole text and pick out misspelling .. Those i can recognize.
Anyone have any solutions to these problems !

Pjl.. Thanx for your input.
No... So far i have only noticed it on yahoo finance forums.(. The corrections popping out and disappearing real quick problem)
But the misspelled words not being underlined and misspelled words being added to the dictionary and offered as correction happens everywhere!
How does a word end up being added to the dictionary? Why would one not get an alert before the word is added..
As terrible of a speller as i am .. My dictionary must be filled with junk words now!
Do u know who this procedure works?
All in all are you guys happy with apple spell checker? Do u guys think it is intelligent enough and has good contextual word recognition/ recommendation algorithm!?
Why should google be able to do a much better job of making recommendations to a misspelling.?
I often resort to coping a misspelled word to google to get correct recommendations when apple says there are no replacement found and cant recognize the intended word . But with google no problem... Same exact misspelled word get recognized and corrections are recommended,
Are u guys experiencing the same?

Hello there,
I have problems with the built-in spell-checker of iWeb. It does not recognize even simple english words! I just selected the english language in System Preferences > International but nothing! It continues to put a red line under those words. Anyone has some Ideas?
Thanks,

I just selected the english language in System Preferences > International but nothing!
Is English at the top of the list is system prefs/international/languages?
Is English what you see at Edit > Spelling > Spelling > Dictionary?

Spell checker problems in Acrobat 9 Standard.

In acrobat 9 standard when performing a spell check the words run together. For instance in the sentence - I exercie in the morning - using the spell checker to correct the error in (exercise) the result is - I exercisein the morning. This error occurs in every instance and with every misspelled word that the spell checker finds. Quite annoying, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jeff

Spell Checker Problem

Raj,
When I use a textarea with spell checker everything works for the first few steps...
The Checked text pops up, but if I click a question mark next to a bad word, a new little box pops up...
But it has an invalid URL so I get the IE error message!
The link the box is trying to open is:
http://www.severname.com/pls/marvel/FLOWS_010308..wwv_speling.small_correction_window?p_field_name=document.forms[0].p_words[1]&p_text=tranfers
Note the two periods after 010308 in the URL above
if I make that one period it works fine....where is this genarated and and how can I get this to work?

PS if this helps...
in the HTML source of the initial spelling window that does pop up (the page that lists the text)...I found this JavaScript (note the two dots are present there). How to fix?
</script>
<script language="Javascript1.1" type="text/javascript">
function popWordChoice( field )
{f = eval( field ); w = open( "FLOWS_010308..wwv_speling.small_correction_window" +
        "?p_field_name=" + field +
        "&p_text=" + escape(f.value),
    "SmallSpelWin" + f.name,
    "scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=325,height=150" );
if ( w.opener == null )
    w.opener = self;
w.focus();
</script>

What app are you talking about? For Pages you may need to go to Inspector > Text > More > Language. For MS stuff you have to use their own settings I think. For other Apple stuff, check Edit > Spelling > Show Spelling to see which dictionary is active.

Spell check and word suggestion doesn't work Droid 4

My wife and I both have Motorola Droid 4s. I have had mine for almost a year, and she has had hers just a week. After I factory reset mine to fix a spell check problem, I noticed that the spell check still doesn't automatically fix errors, and there is no word suggestion. Her's is doing the same thing. When I looked for this issue online, I found numerous other Motorola Droid 4 owners having the same problem.
Since we text a LOT, this is certainly a major inconvenience. We would like to know if there is a fix for this issue, is it OS version and phone specific, and when an update/fix can be expected.
Thank you for your time!

Android Version 4.1.2
Let me know if there is other information I can include. Thanks again!

The settings you gave me are the same as I and my wife have set except for the keyboard and input methods. For us, android is checked but disabled (gray), moto chinese input is checked, and swype is checked but disabled and gray. Same as it was when spell check and suggestions didn't work. Now ours is working but what is really interesting is that we never changed anything since it wasn't working. We just woke up the day after posting this and it was working. Hmm. I left the moto chinese checked because why tempt fate?
Thank you for your reply and information. That fact is, my spell check worked for a year and then suddenly it did not. My wife's didn't even out of the box, then the day after I post, ours works perfect. Coincidence? Who cares. =)

The new version of Pages in Mavericks crashes when I use spell checker.

The new Pages in Mavericks crashes each time I use spell checker. I have to Force Quit each time I use spell. I've been using Pages for many years with no problems. This is a first. I don't know if it relates to Mail's spell checker problem I've also been having since upgrading to Mavericks. In Mail, some words that I commonly misspell (like hte for the) are no longer corrected when I send mail. Anyone else have this problem? Any workarounds or clues as to how to fix the issue?

Many features have been removed from Pages 5 see:
iWorkTipsnTricks Forum
Meanwhile it probably is best to continue using Pages '09 if that is possible and if you are unhappy with Pages 5 give it a review and rating in the App Store.

Safari 5.1 spell check- ignore button kicks out of e-mail

Using Safari 5.1. When I use spell check and use the ignore button it logs me out. I use
Office Outlook Web Acces for company e-mails. Also while writting this question tried using
spell check and click ignore button, it also kick me from the discussion group. Went back to using
5.0.3 and works fine. Some one at Apple needs to fix the many spell check problems......

Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash.
~ (Tilde) character represents your Home folder.
And check Safari / Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari to test.

Thunderbird 31 "Spell Check As Type" turns off after 1or 2 corrections. Win 7 system.

Installed TB 31.4, and since updated to 31.6. System is Win 7, up to date, Core i7 and tons of RAM etc.. Used UK English executable but later overwrote it with the US version to see if would fix a spell check problem. The option Check Spelling has always worked (as long as a character is not accidentally selected - a trap for new starters) but ongoing spell checks produce the wiggly underlines, but after a small number are right click corrected, eg. 1, 2 or 3 (varies) the rest of the wiggly lines disappear. I noticed they tended to be in other sentences and lines, but found later that makes no difference. Tried US, UK and Australian dictionaries. Tried Safe Mode. Only use Send Later in TB, but have Firefox with some extensions, but mostly disabled, and used TB with Firefox closed. Also have LibreOffice installed, recently updated. Changed mail-compose-max-recycled-windows from 1 to 0. Use Comodo Internet Security suite, but tried offline with all options off. Nothing tried has made any difference.

Installed British English version of Thunderbird 38.04 beta on top of TB 31.6 (US English version). Has cured the spell check failures, ie. Spell Check As You Type turning itself off on correcting a word or two. Tested with both UK English and Australian English dictionaries. Have not changed mail-compose-max-recycled-windows back from 0 to 1 (will test that and anything else if you request). Many thanks.

Stop pages resume, when i reopen + spell check.

Hi everyone :-)
When i've turned of my mac, and power it back up, and launch pages, it opens your last opened document... How do i stop that, and make it open the template at launch?
My spell check is all over the place. Suggesting words from many languages, plus it says words, that are correctly spelled, are wrong?
Please help,
- nfxnru

Which system are you on? Snow Leopard, Lion?
In Pages you change the opening document in the Preferences. Click on Choose if you want to do a change.
Concerning the spell check problem I am not sure understand your description. Could it be that you have chosen All in the Inspector palette > T tab > More > Language > All?

Spell check broken after IOS 6.0.1 update

After updating one of our iPads to 6.0.1 the spell checking no longer works. All of the settings (under keyboard) relating to spell checking, capitalization, "." are ON but none of these features work in any program. I powered off the iPad and restarted it but these features no longer work. I tried turning the features off and then on but no luck here. Our other iPad and both iPhones are on IOS 6.0 and these features work just fine. I don't plan to upgrade to 6.0.1 on these devices until we determine what broke in the 6.0.1 update. Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.

Ok, this is a bit wierd. After ckuan's reply, I was going to try the suggestion. When I turned on the iPad, before trying the suggestion, I find that spell checking is working as it should. The iPad had ben on standby for several days but not completely powered off. Don't you just love "self fixing" issues. Wished I knew exactally what happened. Anyway, thanks ckuan for the suggestion.

To the spell checker the word is wrong. It could be the word is right to the OP in this document but not in the next. Why should Pages learn the word?
It's not Pages which learn the document, it's the spell checker.
I wish I could help the OP. Pages on his machine isn't working as it should. Ignore option should take of the red line.
So, my machine is odd too.
When I click ignore, the spell checker no longer halt on the word but it continue to underline it.
As the OP didn't gave a sample we don't know what is the exact problem.
If he want to leave a misspelling in the doc, 'learn' is not a good soluce.
If he want to add a word to the list of allowed words, 'learn' is the soluce.
