Is there a way to spell words that Siri doesn't understand

Siri has trouble differentiating some words like "Hull" and "Whole."  Is there a function that allows users to spell the terms that she doesn't understand?

Yep
To spell a word to siri, while speaking say the follow commands: 
"no caps on" "no space on" (spelled word letter by letter) "no caps off" "no space off" 
Then simply continue your dictation as you normally would.

  • Is there any way to search words that are in the comment section of iTunes song info?

    Question is above. I have put some keywords in various comment sections but can't find a way to search for them

    Note if you find search isn't working as expected it may help to switch to the List view (left-hand view icon) and enable the column, then go back to the view you were using.

  • Is there a way to open Word from forms 10g?

    Is there a way to open Word from a 10g form? I am trying to pass some data to a word document (like a template). Is there a way to open word from a form button?

    That assumes that the mime types are correctly mapped within the browser and that you already know the location and name of the file on the client machine.

  • PLEASE HELP-Is there a way to spell check footnotes in indesign cs2 separately

    Is there a way to spell check footnotes in indesign or in incopy cs2 separately?

    Select all the text - not in the footnotes - but in your normal text frames.
    Then go to Window>Type and Tables>Character
    Change the Language to No Language
    Then run your spell check. It will only check the spelling in your Footnotes now.
    When done, change the language back to whatever your usual dictionary language should be. (note it may still check text inside tables - so you might have to put up with that?)
    Anyone know of a way to script changing all the text bar footnotes to No Language - run a spell check - then reset the text language back?
    ( you don't want to hear the other crazy ideas I had for this one !)

  • My laptop screen when black now it will not turn on or off. And is there a way to see everything that has been done to my laptop at a apple store?

    My laptop has been in the apple store to be fixed more times in the past 2 years then you could imagine. They just replaced a defective wire in it, and hardrive not even a month ago and now the screen just went black and wont turn back on. Also is there a way to see everything that has been done to this laptop through the apple store?

    If I were you I would call Apple Customer Relations (800) 767-2775.  Tell them exactly what you stated in your post in a polite way.  See what they can do for you.

    I just bought a new iPhone 5 and want to transfer all the music on my ipod 3rd gen. to my iPhone. the dilema im having is that not all of my music is on my iTunes. is there a way to move all that music?

    No.  You can download previously purchased music to your iPhone, but all other music must be synched via iTunes.

  • Is there any way to an index that can be used to include the "OR condition "?

    Hello I have some questions.
    The test was conducted in the following procedure .
    create table test
    c1 varchar2(10),
    c2 varchar2(10),
    primary key(c1)
    create index test_idx1 on test(c2);

    By including the "OR condition " in this test does not use the index.
    Is there any way to an index that can be used to include the "OR condition "?
    Thanks.
    GooGyum.

    A database cannot in general use indexes in this way for an 'or' involving two different columns. However, for this specific example one can easily rewrite the query using 'UNION' to use the relevant indexes while still giving the same (correct) result:
    Command> explain select * from test t1 where t1.c1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA' union select * from test t2 where t2.c2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA';
    Query Optimizer Plan:
      STEP:                1
      LEVEL:               1
      OPERATION:           RowLkRangeScan
      TBLNAME:             TEST
      IXNAME:              TEST
      INDEXED CONDITION:   T1.C1 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
      NOT INDEXED:         <NULL>
      STEP:                2
      LEVEL:               2
      OPERATION:           RowLkRangeScan
      TBLNAME:             TEST
      IXNAME:              TEST_IDX2
      INDEXED CONDITION:   T2.C2 = 'AAAAAAAAAA'
      NOT INDEXED:         <NULL>
      STEP:                3
      LEVEL:               1
      OPERATION:           OrderBy
      TBLNAME:             <NULL>
      IXNAME:              <NULL>
      INDEXED CONDITION:   <NULL>
      NOT INDEXED:         <NULL>
      STEP:                4
      LEVEL:               2
      OPERATION:           UnionMergeSort
      TBLNAME:             <NULL>
      IXNAME:              <NULL>
      INDEXED CONDITION:   <NULL>
      NOT INDEXED:         <NULL>
    Maybe you can apply a similar trick? If you know there is no possibility of duplicate rows then you can further optimise this (in terms of performance) by using UNION ALL.

  • Is there a way to import images that have been edited and assign them to the original?

    I am transitioning to mac and aperture. Is there a way to import images that have been edited and assign them to the original? I have 10,000 originals and about 2,000 edited images. The originals are named img_XXXX and anything modified img_XXXX_modified. I would like to be able to import the originals and then import the edited versions and assign them to the original masters. Instead of starting from here and going forward with 12,000 masters, some of which are actual originals and others not. Thanks for the help.

    Ah, the vestiges of a destructive workflow! Once you "get" Aperture, (specifically Masters and Versions) you are going to love it, as all of this work goes away - the relationship that you seek to retain is automatic in Aperture; it is simply done differently.
    The short answer to your question is EVERY image file that is Imported into Aperture will create a new Master and one Version. Assuming that your images are PSD/TIFF/JPEG that you created in something like Photoshop, then each one that your import will be a new Master. You have many options:
    -- Stick the originals in one Project(s) and the edited versions in another Project(s).
    -- Stick them all in the same Project(s) and "Stack" them.
    But here is the real question: Why are you doing all of this work and what are you trying to accomplish? Seems you are trying to preserve old things that don't need preserving in a non-destructive workflow.
    So, what is most valuable to you?
    -- The original, out of camera files? (That is, the fear/need to revert.)
    -- The edited versions? (That is the hours of work that it took you to get there.)
    If the former, import the originals and ignore the edited versions. (Either simply leave them out on disk or import them into their own Projects which you ignore.) Use Aperture to recreate the work you had done previously. This will always give you the ability to revert to the original Master and create as many Versions as you want. This is the best idea if your edits are relatively simple crops and exposure adjustments,
    If the latter, then import the edited versions and do as above with the originals. This makes more sense if your work uses lots of layers and, perhaps lots of clone tool type corrections.
    Of course, you can do a bit of both.
    Others may have better suggestions, but you will find it easy to answer your own question when you understand an image based, as opposed to a file based, non-destructive workflow.
    Good luck!

    It sounds like you are using an application to import. You can do it manually.
    Start > Computer (on the right) > scroll to the bottom and you will see your iPhone under Portable Devices > Open it and you will see a Drive, open that and there will be a DCIM folder. That is where your photos will be (There may be other folders each holding photos).

    I am sorry that you don't find the answer to be correct. In THIS forum, telling you that you are in the wrong forum, and suggesting where to post for correct answers, or indeed any support, IS the answer.
    I'm also sorry that you purchased a phone that you are having trouble with. If the vendor cannot help you (HTC), and the eBay seller cannot help you, then you really do need to either follow up with the forums Ken suggests, or the HTC forum, or with eBay.

    When restoring from the backup, whatever is included with the backup from two days ago should be restored which includes photos/videos in the Camera Roll at the time of the backup along with all other data included with the backup at the time of the backup two days ago.
