My spell check in Pages doesn't correct the letter i to capital I ?

my spell check in Pages doesn't correct the letter i to capital I ? i have the prefs checked off to automatically check spelling as i type.

I hate it when people do that. YAY I FIXED IT..... then don't bother to share. You came asking for help, when you found the answer why not help others?

  • Hi, can someone please tell me why the spell check in pages doesn't work. I went to preferences and enabled this auto spell checker and have set the language to british english. But still it doesn't work while it works perfectly in TextEdit.

    Only applies to selected text, like making it a particular font.
    It is not a setting that sticks. If you continue to paste in text from elsewhere particularly the Internet it will have a different or None language set to it. You need to select it and make it B.E.

  • Spell Check in Mac doesn't know the simplest words

    I came into Mac 5 years ago still waiting for a decent 'Spell Ck'.
    For example, 'unexceptable', and spell check didn't have a clue if spelled wrong or right.
    I've been hitting 'learn' for years. Or forced to Google.
    I don't get it.
    What the heck is out there that outdoes the PC version I had years ago?
    Careless writing it wrong is no excuse anywhere.
    Thanks

    Oh My, I opened that link and cracked up in .03 seconds.
    I'll admit though, in here we are pretty lucky.
    Out there, OOOooooo it's scary. Look at any YouTube page.
    Something is in the water used for cool-aid.
    I travel quite often to Europe.
    From Germany to Sweden, I'm so impressed by the kids that not only learn the
    disambiguation of our language, but speak clearly.
    I feel bad, and a little embarrassed that at my age, it's tough to dedicate the time to learn a foreign language.
    The poor gal in Germany in small village general store tried so hard to understand me.
    I tried to explain I wanted hamburger for camping. Who knows how that came across.
    I could not read one package on the shelfs. Even melk comes in grades I never saw before.
    She came back with liter of motor oil.
    Maybe she knew the Beamer out front is what I needed vs what I wanted.
    I politely said thanks, and continued on tour with the oil.

  • Spell checker in Pages for iOS - other than english

    Hello,
    I'm trying to get spell checking in Pages for iOS working in another language besides english. My question is- is spell checker in Pages for iOS evailable in any other language besides english? Because it doesn't seem to be- once I change keyboard to another language (even matching system language), Pages stops underlying errors in that keyboard language.
    Thanks.

    Spellcheck/autocorrect follows the keyboard (system language is irrelevant).  Please tell us what language exactly is not working for you.

  • Spell checker in Pages 08

    Hi, I am trying out iwork 08 as a possible replacement for Office 04. Lately I have been getting a Cannot load spellchecker error popup whenever I try to start Pages.
    How do I fix this annoyance?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    This error appears to be caused by having an older version of Spell Catcher or other third-party spell checking application installed now or in the past. Take a look at this thread. A search for my reply in that thread I found this post & this post with the likely cause.
    I also remember an older version of Spell Catcher causing problems with Mail for me a few years ago.

  • Pages won't spell check after page 15?!?!

    I have a pages document that will only underline or spell check words before page 15. After that, nothing is underlined or spell checked when right clicked on. Any ideas whats going on or how to fix it?

    I have the same dilemma. The spell checker on pages seriously lacks.
    Also i don't think my proofreader works. When I highlight a word and click proof read, it automatically skips to the next underlined word.
    I'm about to go back to Word.

  • Sluggish Spell Check in Pages

    I tried to do a full-document spell check in Pages (300-page doc), but it was s-o-o-o-o-o sluggish that I copied the whole document into AppleWorks and did the spell check there in a fraction of the time. (I prefer not to use the spellcheck-as-you type feature.) Any thoughts?
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Just answered my own question: When I get out of layout mode, the spell-check moves at a normal (quick) rate.

  • I write in greek as well as english on my mac (osx mountain lion) problem is, there is no spell checking on pages, and yes, i have added a greek dictionary in the library spelling folder. and i can also select it from the inspector. what's wrong?

    You need to give more details:
    1. What version of Pages?
    2. Where did you get the Greek dictionary from and exactly how did you install it?
    3. Are you applying the language to your text?

  • Spell Check and changing multiple instances of the same word

    Hi, sorry if this has been brought up before.. I can't seem to find any reference, so here's my dilemma:
    My main writing language in Pages is Spanish and when it comes time for me to run the spell check, I usually have to change the same word a lot, because of missing accents and such. (I'd rather concentrate on writing and not worry about whether it has the right accent). Does Pages have any way to automatically detect when a word has been corrected, and pass the correction to any other instance of that word? I have tried using Find and Replace, but its not perfect, changing perfectly spelled words to include any corrections because the words, I think, appear similar. Is there a trick within Pages to do this? Does anyone know if the new version of Pages includes such a feature? Apple's iWork website and presentations fail to mention it...
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    I got it working, thanks es5f2000. I sat and thought about it and worked it out. (Pretty simple) Heres the code:
    public void findWord()
             x = iTab.getEditorList(iTab.getIndex());
             try
               int index = x.getDocument().getText(0, x.getDocument().getLength()).toLowerCase().indexOf(tFindText.getText().toLowerCase());
               int index2 = x.getDocument().getText(0, x.getDocument().getLength()).toLowerCase().indexOf(tFindText.getText().toLowerCase(), x.getCaretPosition());
               if (index >= 0)
                 System.out.println("found:)" + index);
                 x.requestFocus();
                 x.select(index, index + tFindText.getText().length());
                 if(x.getCaretPosition() > 0)
                   System.out.println("found:)" + index2);
                   x.requestFocus();
                   x.select(index2, index2 + tFindText.getText().length());
               else
                 System.out.println("Not found:(");
             catch(BadLocationException ie) {}
          }

  • Help- Flex Start Page doesn't open the Start Page

    Help -> Flex Start Page doesn't open the Start Page.
    I see multiple bug entries regarding this resolved, but no description of what I can do to fix it.
    I'm running Flex Builder Professional on Windows XP

    I've heard this can be caused in IE when the pop-up blocker is enabled. Disable it so pop-ups are allowed, and the Flex Start Page may load.

  • My music is in alphabetical order but doesn't show the letter headings or the letters on the side. Can anyone help?

    I just synced my Iphone to my new computer and added new music but the music doesn't show up like it used to. It doesn't have the letter headings or the letters going down the side. I have 21 songs right now and they are in alphabetical order but are shown like a playlist rather than a library.

    You do not have enough music to display the letters on the side. The phone needs more music for it to determine you need help going through the alphabet. I saw it written somewhere some time ago, and it does the same thing for Contacts. I believe it takes somewhere between 50-100 entries before it will display that letter side on the right side.
