No more volume click or spell check.

Sometimes after my computer has been running for a while the click that the computer makes when you raise or lower the volume stops working. Spell chick also cuts out. I know that sounds odd but that is what it is doing.

Hello Daniel:
I do not know what would cause the alert sound to stop working. In the case of spell checking, that is either on or off - again, I do not understand what would cause it to quit.
"Checking spelling as you type
In many Mac OS X applications, you can have the application automatically check your spelling as you type. When you mistype or misspell a word, it's underlined in red so you can quickly spot errors and correct them.
Open the application that you want to use and choose Edit > Spelling > "Check Spelling as You Type."
If you don't see this item in the Edit menu, the application doesn't provide the Mac OS X spell-checking feature. The application may have its own spell-checker. Look in the application's preferences or menus for a spell-checker."

Spell Check in Zimbra

The Zimbra help states that I should click on Spell Check to invoke a wizard that will check the spelling of an email I am composing. I do not have a Spell Check icon. The Help also shows a shortcut to invoke what sounds like the same wizard of Alt - X. That doesn't seem to work either.
How do I check my spelling of an email I am composing, be it the intial email of a thead or a Reply or Forward?
Thanks,
Daryl
(I am using IE7. I guess if I was using Firefox, the Firefox browser would most likely do it for me, but I'd still like to understand how this is supposed to work in IE7 and why I don't have that icon.)

Spell check is not currently supported in Beehive Webmail.
As you note, for Firefox, the browser has built in spell-checking. There are 3rd party plugins that provide similar features for IE, though this is outside the scope of the Beehive product itself.
Also, though it doesn't solve the specific issue, we are updating the Beehive Webmail online help to more accurately reflect the available features.

Spell Check button doesn't work anymore

When I click on "Spell Check" button, it seems all works fine, but as soon as I click on "Change" button, or "Go back/Edit" or "Post Message", I receive the following error message :
Your spell session has expired - please go back to the posting page to resume the spell check.
What's the timeout on that page, few seconds ?
Nicolas.

Yeah, I use Firefox on my personal computer since a while, and I would have forget what's IE without being on client site which are stuck on full Microsoft product suite. Furthermore, I wouldn't have to know some IE's bugs like Re: Tags [pre] and [/pre] does no more keep blank lines. And don't know such bug is not a big missing.

Spell Check Not working in Office 2013

I can not get spell check to work at all in Outlook nor Word documents. I need real basic instructions please.
I tried this idea from a prior post, but there is no dictionary file to pick. Any other ideas?
If so, back up all these files. Add the custom dictionaries via:
Click the
File tab.
Click
Options.
Click
Proofing.
Make sure the
Suggest from main dictionary only check box is cleared.
Click
Custom Dictionaries.
Click
Add.
Locate the folder containing the custom dictionary you want, and then double-click the dictionary file.

I tried this idea from a prior post, but there is no dictionary file to pick.
Are there any dictionaries listed in the Dictionary List when you click
File > Options > Proofing > Custom Dictionaries? If so, please make sure the check boxes before these dictionaries are ticked.
Do you mean the Spell Check not working as you type or after you click the
Spelling & Grammar button?
If you mean spell check not working as you type, please go to File > Options > Proofing and select the check box before "Check spelling as you type".
If above didn't apply, please try to rename your Word template file (Normal.dotm) to Normal.old and then restart Word to check if it helps.
In addition, we can also try to run a repair of your Office installation to check the result. See:

New User, Spell Check?

Was a PC girl for a long time and happily made the switch over to apple recently. I understand how to use the spell check, but was wondering if there is anyway to just use your mouse and clicker to spell check, like how PC's do it, instead of going through the motions of the edit tab, then getting in... I know there is no right click on the apple, but I was wondering if there is anymore more convenient way to spell check while typing then the edit button.

Hi Jen,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Pages 08 forum.
Actually, if you were using Apple's Mighty Mouse you'd be able to do left clicks, right clicks and two other types of click.
On Macs with single button mice (or with trackpads which do not support left and right clicking) you can perform the equivalent of a right click by clikcking while holding down the control (or ctrl) key. A control-click in a Pages document brings up a contextual menu that includes spell check.
Check the Keyboard and Mouse pane in System Preferences. You may find that your trackpad does support right clicks. Mine does not, but mine is on a 2005 iBook, not a current MacBook.
Regards,
Barry

Thunderbird often stops 'responding' after a spell check. When I choose wait, it usually does not self correct. What can I do to remedy this? Win7 pro, patch 1

Mozilla Thunderbird often, but not always, stops working during a spell check. It seems more frequent if the spell check is automatic when I hit send, but it happens when I click spell check or even click the underlined miss spelled word. The system will generally not recover when I choose 'wait for the system to respond'. Any advice? Win 7 Pro, service patch 1, automatic windows updates. Norton Security Suite.

I disabled out going scans and sent a number of messages with out problem. Norton re-engaged the out bound scan, and still no problem. I'm not sure if this was the issue. It is hard to tell with intermittent issues. Any other suggestions?

Why does gmail spell check highlight partial words?

I recently received the latest version of Firefox for my Windows XP desktop computer. Since that time, when I type e-mails the spell check puts a wiggly red line under parts of a word. When I click to spell check the entire e-mail, parts of correctly spelled words are highlighted in yellow and the dictionary tries to provide spellings for these highlighted parts of each word. I have gone into Firefox options and unchecked the box for spell checking as I type. That did not help. What can I do to fix this problem?

Hi,
You can update Firefox via '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''About Firefox''', or from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
[https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/update/ Updating]
If you're using an add-on, you can try to '''Disable''' it in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Extensions'''. Please note that Gmail has a spell check function, so if the problem persists, you may have to disable the Gmail spell check. The [https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/gmail Gmail support] would also be helpful.

Siebel Spell Check : Lexicon Path not found

I am using Spell Check for one of the long field and the spell check is working fine on my local. When I moved the changes to server, I am getting "Spell Checker: Lexicon Path not found(SBL-SPC-00109)" error on clicking on Spell Check button. Could anyone tell me what is the reason for this error and how it can be rectified?
Thanks,

Playbook upgrade 2.0 took away spell check

What a huge disappointment !! No more word recognition and spell check on bridge email. Poor quality control on the upgrade.
Playbook rocks.

Hi Aandras and thank you for replying. I have searched for your earlier email and cannot locate it. Can you resend?
Also, spell check works fine and word suggestions work fine except for my outlook email value bridge. It worked fine prior to 2.0 upgrade.
Playbook rocks.

Delete spell check languages

Hi,
I type with a mixture of british english and french and I switch way too often to change it in the spell check every time so I put the spell check language to multilingual. But there's too many languages in the list and I'm afraid that a misspelt word can be a valid one in italian or portuguese or american english and make me overlook the error. Is there a way for me to get rid of the languages I won't use?
And one more question about the spell check. Does the language selection affect the spell check in every Cocoa program? And is "multilingual" only an intermediate state for the language setting and change as soon as I start typing a few words and it decides which language I'm typing it?
My ultimate goal is to have the spell check verify for british english and french only for every application I run.
Thanks

Is there a way for me to get rid of the languages I won't use?
I don't think so.
Does the language selection affect the spell check in every Cocoa program?
I think you choose the dictionary for each app independently. The default is determined by what language is at the top of system prefs/international/languages.
And is "multilingual" only an intermediate state for the language setting and change as soon as I start typing a few words and it decides which language I'm typing it?
An app has no way to figure out what language you are typing in. It just applies whatever dictionary you have chosen.

BBM 5.0.0.55 - No Spell Check

Has there never been spell check in BBM or did 5.0.0.55 lose this feature. I just noticed it this morning but after updating to 5.0.0.55 I have no spell checking in BBM.

I have it... on my Storm2 using OS5.
You didn't state your model and OS... but in BBM, type a message and before you press send, click Menu > Spell Check.
Not there?

When I right click, I can't copy or spell check or open a tab in a new window.

When I right click on a picture, it doesn't give me the option to copy or to view in another tab as a separate image from the web page it is on. I no longer have the option to spell check. When I highlight text to copy, it doesn't give me an option to copy it but only says "copy link location". I can open a new tab by holding down the control key and clicking the link I want open in a new tab but when I right click and click "Open in new tab" it does nothing. This started happening about a week ago.

You can try to update to Firefox 21 that has been released today.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Mac: When I click on a misspelled word in the body of an email the spell checker defaults to first word in the email even if it already spelled correctly

The spell checker identifies incorrect spelled words, however when I right click or control click the word the spell checker only highlights in yellow the first word in the email and gives a dialog with the spelling and definition even though that word already correctly spelled. This is version 33.1 on my mac desktop running 10.10. Spell checking works properly if I use Safari.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''
'''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]''' {web link}
While you are in safe mode;
Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''General.'''
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?
Then restart.

Spell Check is Broken - Right Clicking on Misspelled Word Does Nothing

MIsspelled words are marked as incorrect in Safari, but when I right-click or control-click I never get a dialog to correct the misspelling. Spell-check works fine in all other apps, such as Mail. Any ideas? I have the problem on two machines. All have had upgrade installs from Tiger to Leopard.

Hi
When I right-click on a misspelled word (in this case "now") in a text box, this is what my contextual menu looks like.
Do you see these choices?

No more volume click or spell check.
