No option to enable spell check on IOS 8.1.3

My mother and I recently both upgraded to iphone 6. She immediately did a software update to IOS 8.1.3, but I did not. We use spell check when writing in English because it is our second language. Now she does not have the option to turn on/ enable spell check at all (with IOS 8.1.3). I was just wondering if there is any way at all to turn on spell check with IOS 8.1.3, otherwise I won't be updating my software. Or is there something we candownload to help with this issue?

Go to Settings>General>Keyboards You will find the "Check spelling" button there.

How can I enable spell checking for a text box that is just one line, e.g. subject in e-mail?

In a prior version of Firefox I found a website somewhere that told me what to do to enable spell checking for text boxes that are just one line. I got used to being able to send an e-mail with a Subject Line that didn't have a misspelling. Now it doesn't work. Please tell me how I can enable that again. I am on a Mac using Firefox 6.0.2. Thanks!

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Spell_checking
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.spellcheckDefault
You can set the pref layout.spellcheckDefault to 2 on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

Is it possible to enable 'spell checker' option with HTML Editor ?

The spell checker option is available with Text Area with Spell Checker item, but that spell checker doesn't come with the HTML Editor.
Is it possible to somehow make it available for the HTML Editor ?
I know there are some browser addin spell checkers, but a client instance doesn't allow end users to install such for their IE browser.

I would also like to know if this is possible?

How do I enable spell check in Safari 5.1.3?

Right clicking and going through through the grammar and spelling options, no combination seems to give me what I had in 10.6.8... namely a red underline underneath mispelled words and the ability to ignore that or right click it for suggestions and other options. Does this functionality still exist in Safari? It does in Mail, but I can't spell check anything I type in a forum with Safari like I used to.
Thanks!
Safari 5.1.3 and OS 10.7.3

Not having your system software up to date may be part of the problem.
And could be Safari prefs are corrupted.
Quit Safari.
Go to ~/Library/Preferences
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder.

Is there a way to make the spell check work on the entire web page without making the content editable? Or at least those boxes that appear when you enable spell check on the entire page, can you make them disappear?

I found an addon that allows you to spell check on the webpage but it make the entire page editable and these boxes appear on everything i highlight. Can i get rid of the boxes?

I had thought this situation was solved but it just got worse. In addition to being without service for several days I am now being charged a cancellation fee for a broadband service that BT disconnected in error. BT Vision was also terminated by BT but the set up charges are still in place. Does anyone know who the relevant Ombudsman is? I called BT from America on Friday - for an hour - while someone called Aruj sorted out why there is an order 'in progress' that I didn't initiate; why I have fees relating to a problem created by BT and why there are references to a house move that didn't take place and a BT Vision service I no longer have but didn't cancel myself. He assured me it would be rectified and my bill would be reduced by 139 pounds and we would get confirmation of this later that day. I asked him what chance there was that this would not actually happen - he said no chance at all; my new bill would be 23.50.
There was no text message. An online chat person today told me there had been a fee reduction request which had been declined and there was nothing else he could help me with as he dealt only with broadband. But he would get BT Vision to email me. They always seem so helpful.............
I'm sure I'm listed somewhere as 'a problem', there's no other explanation for why I get the runaround

Enabling spell check for another language (Portuguese)

I am trying to figure out how to spell check in another language. Specifically European Portuguese. Is this a browser issue or can it be resolved within the system of my laptop?
Thanks

First you need to install the dictionary, available from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3155/
The dictionary will then be available for you, for more details see [[using the spell checker]].

Spell check option to skip master pages

I'm still running CS3 so perhaps this has already been solved for but I need a spell check option to ignore the master pages. I'm a magazine designer and our master pages contain placeholder text so we can work our layouts before we have final copy. Problem is we can never run an effective spell check because there is no option to ignore the master pages so a spell check tries to check the lorum ipsum text rendering it useless. It would be wildy helpful if in the search dropdown option you could select "no masters" or something of the sort. Similar to the option in the Find/Change search dropdown, where you can choose "story" instead of "document"; in fact, this same functionality in Find/Change would be great as well. Also, "Story" is a good option, the whole document minus the master pages would be even better. That way we could check all of the active text in the document, including folios, rubrics and captions that are divided from the story.
Let me know if I can explain this better.

Peter,
I'm familiar with the workaround. Trouble is when you place or paste
your text in later, you have to remember to take it off of "no
language" or it will continue to ignore the text. We're dealing with
editors here, with very quick turnarounds, and the whole idea is not
to make a mistake. Just think how easy it would be to forget to turn
off "no language", run a spell check and think you're good to go to
press. ... and don't say InCopy has the solution, because its not a
useful product for us; it's cumbersome and doesn't serve us well at
all. I really think adding functionality that would allow you to
simply filter out the master pages in a spell check would be an
excellent help.
Have you tried creating customized placeholder text, something like "Replace this placeholder text with real text and tag the replacement text with such-and-such paragraph style." instead of lorem ipsum? You do this by creating a text file named "placeholder.txt" that contains your customized text, and saving it in the main InDesign directory. When you perform Type > Fill With Placeholder Text, the customized text appears with instructions.
You can create object styles for the placeholder text frames that apply the no-language paragraph style. You can make the no-language paragraph style a color, bold, etc, to call even more attention to it.
A simpler option would be to assure that all the text in your customized placeholder.text file is spelled correctly, so it doesn't get a hit when spell checking.
Being able to omit Master pages from spell checks is a good idea. Would you want it to be a scope option in the spell checker, or a property of a master page? If it were a master page property, you could specify which master pages are skipped. You can enter a formal feature request at

Spell checker for KWrite doesn't work [SOLVED]

How do I enable spell checking for the KDE editors, i.e. KWrite, Kate, etc? I've installed aspell via pacman, it's in /usr/bin which is in my PATH. In KWrite's Settings>Configure Editor>Plugins, there is an option "KTextEditor KDataTool Plugin: Enable data tools like thesaurus and spell check (if installed)" which I've checked. In another distro, that's how I enabled spell checking with aspell, i.e. by checking this box for the spell check plugin. But in Arch this doesn't seem to be sufficient. When I try to spell check a document in KWrite, I get this error:
"The spelling program could not be started. Please make sure you have set the correct spelling program and that it is properly configured and in your PATH."
What else do I need to do?
Robert
EDIT: Sorry, searching this forum for "spellcheck" hadn't yielded any solution but after I posted this I also searched for "spell AND check" and found the solution: I had neglected to pick Aspell as the client for spell checking in Control Center>KDE Components>Spell Checker.

Why doesn't Thunderbird underline misspelled words so that the spell checker can suggest alternatives?

I can't activate spell checker because there are no misspelled words underlined, when I know that there are.

To enable underlining of incorrectly spelt words as you type:
'Tools' > 'Options' > 'Composition' > 'Spelling' tab
or
'Menu icon' > 'Options' > 'Options' > 'Composition' > 'Spelling' tab
select : 'Enable spell check as you type'
click on OK
However, you do not have to have this enabled in order to use Spellcheck.
Click on 'Spelling' in the toolbar, it will open a small window offering potential spelling corrections for mispelt words.

Some of the options not enabled when cursor is placed on it.Eg:Ask a question in this screen Only in full screen mode it is enabled

On a normal screen some of the functions are not enabled when cursor is placed on it.For example,in rediffmail the folders,settings, sign out, functions are not enabled in normal screen when cursor is placed on it.On full screen mode these are enabled.

Have you got anything like addblockers or script blockers installed which may cause this problem ?
Ensure you have javascript enabled
* when you post in this forum do you see the formatting icons above where you type your message: ['''B'''] & [''i''] (The icons will not be seen with javascript disabled, or totally blocked)

Language Specific Spell Check

Hello.
I have gotten my iPhone about a week ago and so far, amazing, but.. There's this one thing, regarding the suggestive spell check, which works great and all when I am using an English keyboard setting, as I do talk quite a lot of English while I surf the web, even if it's not my first language. The issue is, that my own language, Finnish, is a bit more complicated than English, and the suggestive spell check isn't as nice with the Finnish keyboard as it is for the English version.
Is there any way for me to enable spell check when I am using the English keyset and have it auto disable itself when I turn back to Finnish keyset?
Much love, Mailia.

I'm afraid not. The appropriate dictionary is activated automatically when you select a supported keyboard. You have to choose General > Keyboard and turn Auto-Correction on or off. Auto-Correction is on by default. http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/#basics.dictionary

Enable Item Check-Out

In "Checking an item in and out" topic of help:To check in and check out an item, the Enable Item Check-Out attribute must be selected for the item.
But I can not find the option of "Enable Item Check-Out".

You should edit the item's properties and in the 'Secondary' tab you can find a checkbox for 'Enable Item Check-Out'.

Is there a spell check in 13?

Is there a spell checker in 13?

However, I believe that some of the addon toolsets, like elements+ from simplephotoshop.com, may enable spell checking.

Spell-Check issue

v 31.0
Seems each time Thunderbird is re-started, the spell-check malfunctions --
when writing a new message, all words are red-highlighted, indicating a spell error.
I 'fix' the issue by 1) disabling spell-check, close and re-start, 2) re-start and enable spell-check.
Ideas? Thanks!
By the way, this might be helpful...
Recently replaced the drive on iMac, restored from Time Machine... Also, performed a 'disk erase', Mac's function for cleaning-up deleted files. wondering if Thunderbird was impacted. Although, everything else on the iMac runs perfectly.

regardless of what the forum people at Mozilla say, we do handle multiple problems in one post.. But then Thunderbird is a community project, we are just a little independent.
That and your other issue may well be related. could time machine be replacing these files over and over? Spelling setting I am sure are stored in profiles.js, along with account settings. This is a text formatted java-script file. So open it in a text editor and just scroll through it. Is there an discontinuities and might be corruption. (you do not have to understand it to see something obviously different.)
Also check that the session.JSON file is stored and unchanged session to session. Under windows ccLeaner deletes that in a misguided attempt to protect you privacy. Nothing to say there is not a MAC culprit as well.
