No autocorrect in iPhone safari search???

Why doesn't my safari search engine have autocorrect? It's really frustrating when I want to search for something. Is there a way to turn this on? My autocorrect is on in settings. Thanks.

I have the opposite problem on my Mac (OS 10.10.1 right now, but also true with OS 9 and earlier). I hate that the OS autocorrects within a search box, since often I am looking for a misspelled word or some other non-word. This has bugged me for years, but I just figured out a solution: type the search field in all caps, which is not autocorrected! Seems obvious now that I realize it, but I've put up with this annoyance for years. No more!

  • Webpage searches (FB, IMDB) crash iPad/iPhone Safari

    Facebook live search or IMDB live search on their respective websites always crash my ipad and iphone safari. Solution?
    By live search I mean when you enter letters, it starts bringing up results immediately. Strangely the google one doesn't crash Safari.

    Can you explain how you enable live searches on these sites? Can you upgrade your iOS to the latest version (4.3)? No use troubleshooting an out-of-date OS.

  • IPhone Safari Font Sizes are bad

    Anyone else notice the bad font sizes in iPhone Safari?
    I am writing a web site and am having trouble getting safari to render fonts on the iphone the same way they are rendered on safari... I tried changing the font-family to Verdana and Arial since those are supposed to be supported on both the iPhone and Mac Safari but that did not fix it...
    As a great example go to google and search for something on your iphone.
    The word "Sign in" on the top right is too large...
    The word "Web" (right under the search box) is too small...
    The other words in the blue bar with "Web" are also too large...
    Right now my current solution is to pin point things that are too small and too large and on a case by case basis change the font sizes for those elements... This is pretty ridiculous when you have a large site and lots of pages...

    Sweet your thing wasnt right but pointed me to the right location:
    I just needed:
    html {-webkit-text-size-adjust:none}

    How do I DISABLE Safari search history function in iPhone4?

    Thank you for the swift answer. I find it amazing that Safari/iPhone developers haven't considered such basic privacy/security issues. Can't help but wonder if it's a cultural thing (Americans and their curious views on the concept of privacy).

  • IPhones Safari keeps crashing Apple please fix this.

    I know there is another top posted about this... if you google the 3 words... "iPhone, Safari, and Crash" in google or yahoo search hundreds of results of people complaining and apple still hasn't acknowledged the problem. I used the 1st generation iPhone for a year. My girlfriend still uses a 1st gen iPhone. I now use the iPhone 3g and I bought it in hopes that apple fixed how often safari crashes. Safari crashes all the time while loading a page safari will just launch me back to the home screen. This happens on 100% of everybody's iPhone I have ever tested. It happens mostly in forums while typing such as this one. I tried and failed twice to post in this forum with my iPhone because safari crashed and it was so frustrating. I have had an Iphone now for a year and a half and my girlfriend has as well. It is time you recognize this problem apple and do something about it. If you don't believe me log on to this very forum and reply to this message with your iPhone and see if it doesn't lag until you are just about frozen and then kick you back to the home screen. Apple I give you until December to fix this problem. Otherwise I will ebay my phones and then buy either the LG Dare, Samsung Instinct, T-mobiles new Google Android phone, or a windows mobile. PLEASE FIX SAFARI

    The only reason I thought the new iphone would make some sort of difference is because in other maps such as SMS/MAPS/SETTINGS/AIM/MYSPACE mobile and many more the screen runs smoother and is more responsive. I have compared it to my 1st gen iPhone, my friends iPhone, and my girls iPhone. The new 3g just glides through everything a little smoother so I hoped maybe safari was more stable on the new platform. I was wrong. Regardless SAFARI should work perfectly on both iPhones that is, to alot of people, the most important application of all. It crashes more than any other 10 fold.

    Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • IPhone Safari doesn't open links in new page

    Under iPhone Safari Settings, I've got it set to Open Links In New Page, but when I click on links in Safari, that doesn't happen. When I set it to Open Links In Background, that doesn't happen either. Links open in the same page no matter what the setting.
    Anyone know how this can be fixed? Thanks.
    (iPhone 4S running IO5)

    It depends on the website. Some websites have it set up to take you to a new tab, some do it in the same tab.

  • How do I stop iPhone Safari from dynamically resizing the visual viewport?

    Sorry I post this here, but I couldn't access the developer forums (no error given, it just keeps returning me to this page https://developer.apple.com/devforums/) I'm not even sure wether that's been moved here and it's just the redirection non working.
    I need to Stop iPhone Safari from dynamically resizing the visual viewport, or in other words, to stop it from trying to "fit" the layout into the viewport.
    Why?
    Because any recalculation javascript does on absolutely positioned elements makes the whole site super IRRESPONSIVE.
    I don't know wether the issue is the element going out the already-set layout viewport (which triggers the page resizing to fit the visual viewport) or just the calculations being made constantly, but I can stop the calculations from happening when not "touching" the screen, but I need a way to stop the page resizing.
    I tried setting the viewport width to 1040px, as my layout width, and it fixed the header's width being narrower than the body (or shifted left?), but the whole page is still resized with every motion-frame (one every 3 seconds, due to overloading the redrawing engine)
    Is there a way to prevent that?

    No, that link doesn't solve it. It just says the same is found everywhere online.
    There's probably no way to do it, as per their way they "accidentally" omitted the oposite case: the page being wider than 980. They only mention what to do if the site is narrower. Something I learned is big companies (with reputation management) could let you run in circles for years no answer rather than telling you something is not possible.
    I'm the developer (can't access the dev forums, don't know why) and I DID setup the viewport, scale and other properties but none of them stopped from re-fitting the new re-sized layout in the viewport. They just ensure the "initial" view.
    I think the feature I'm looking for must be achieved with some JavaScript function targeting Safari-proprietary variable/property… if even possible.
    I just had to make things never reaching the edge until somebody contributes something useful

  • IPhone says searching for service after ios 7.1.1 update! HELP!

    I updated my iPhone 5c to the iOS 7.1.1 last night and didn't think I would have any problems. I went to bed and woke up this morning with my phone in the top left corner saying "Searching..." and the the wifi symbol.
    I went to check my setting to see if my data was off, but when I went into the settings app and clicked the tab labed "Celluar" the app crashed and took me back to the home screen. It does this everytime I try and go into that tab! So, I have no idea what it going on with my phone! I can't make calls, send texts through my phone number (I can still send iMessages when connected to wifi), the screen glitches and moves when I go into apps, the battery life is now terrible and drains really fast. Everything about my phone was perfectly fine until I updated it to the iOS 7.1.1, so I believe something must have went wrong when it was updating.
    Overall these are my main problems:
    -iPhone is "Searching" for phone service (which means I have no service so no calls or texts can be sent or recieved)
    -Cellular tab in settings crashes
    -Battery drains over 2x faster than normal
    -Screen seems to glitch or move when I open apps

    Hi SamSam1103,
    If you are having multiple issues with your iPhone after a recent update, your best course of action may be to back up your content to iTunes, restore the phone to factory settings, then test to see if the issues persist in its default config before bringing back your content from the backup. You may find the following articles helpful:

  • How can I reduce the size of the new io7 safari search bar? Help please!

  • Safari Search Bar now GREEK

    Ever since I upgraded to 10.7.4 I've had some major annoyances rear their heads with my 2011 iMac.
    The issue I'm looking for help with, though it may seem small, is with the Safari search bar.
    I know there have been discussions before about this and I've always had a difficult relationship with the search bar as it is supposed to change to your 'local' search engine, e.g. for me that would be Google UK, yet it has often defaulted to Google US which means that searches can be a little less relevant at times.
    Anyway, for months things have been fine. The search bar defaulted to Google UK until the 10.7.4 update hit... All of a sudden my Google search bar now defaults to Google.com in GREEK...
    Since I don't speak a word of Greek, I'm sure you can see how this has become an issue. I've tried all manner of things, resetting safari, changing language settings but have been unable to get it to change back. I tried changing to Bing search but to be honest, Google search in Greek is a **** of a lot more useful than Bing in English is, which I think says a lot.
    I did have greek as a secondary keyboard layout so that I could use the greek characters for my physics work but UK English has always been my default and I have since removed Greek yet the search bar stays the same.
    It's really becoming irritating now as every time I search it sets my whole Google experience to Greek with a cookie so any google.com service I use ends up in Greek and it's a pain to reset it.
    Does anyone out there know how the search bar bases it's localisation on and is there any way I can reset it?
