Norwegian spelling dictionary?

Where can i download the norwegian spelling dictionary file for safari?

Apple doesn't provide spell checking for all the languages supported by OSX.
Install CocoAspell and download one or both of the Norwegian dictionaries:
http://m10lmac.blogspot.co.uk/2011/06/extra-spell-checking-dictionaries-for.html
and/or
http://home.no/stavekontroll/mac.html
or
<http://cocoaspell.leuski.net/>
It has a Norwegian dictionary available.

Pages 09 won't let me change spelling dictionary from French to English!

Pages 09 won't let me change spelling dictionary from French to English!
I'm writing a syllabus for class and the spellcheck is stuck in French - for the life of me I can't change it. The dictionary menu doesn't show up ANYWHERE. Is this a bug? is there a fix?

How do I change my spelling dictionary?

I have accidentally clicked on "add to dictionary" when trying to correct a few misspelled words while using firefox.
So I went to finder/library/application support/firefox/profiles/persdict.dat
There I found a list of the words. So I deleted the misspelled words. Clicked "save" and exited.
However, next time I open finder and open the persdict/dat file again, those stupid words are still in there!!
So how do I edit my "spelling word bank" that has the misspelled words? Thanks.

Hi,
Strange, should work. Did you close Firefox before editing the file?

Using Custom Spelling Dictionary?

I'm doing some serious copy editing for a professional document. And I have lots of specific terminology. Does anyone know if a way to add a custom dictionary to Pages?
Word lets you add any number of custom dictionaries, so I was able to add my Stedman's to the list, and I don't have to manually add all of the medical terms.
(and I find it amusing that my US English choice still seems to give me French word preferences!)
Thanks!

Pages uses the OS X system dictionaries, and the only way to add other ones is via CocoAspell. Or by using other systems like SpellCatcher or Excalibur.
It's way simpler than that. Words are stored in a text file at ~/Library/Spelling/en

Spelling dictionary: where is the list of learned words?

In MS Office all the technical words I have added to the spelling dictionary are stored in a simple text file. I now want to paste them into the Mac dictionary. Please can someone tell me if there is a text list of learned words and where it is stored.
I will be really annoyed if I have to add each of the hundreds of words manually.
Thanks,

Again, I'm in Leo right now, but spent the last hour searching for it/them.. no soap.
So I added some real long names to it, they showed up in en.
I made a new file in Text Edit with these words...
qwerty
asdfgh
zxcvbnm
Changing one slightly to zxcvbnmkl and highlighting it in Text Edit, Right Click>Spelling & Grammer>Show Spelling & Grammer... it shows that zxcvbnmk is the proper spelling... en was not changed, as it was with the real long names!?
zxcvbnmk does not exist in the content of any file, I have not found a Folder or File that was changed on those last three words!?
I don't know how long of list you have, but a possible workaround...
Load/paste them all into Text Edit, Select All>Right Click>Spelling & Grammer>Show Spelling & Grammer... Click Learn repetedly... I did a list of a hungred or so this way.
Assuming Tiger has the same capability I'd guess.

Safari on Windows. How does one change default spelling dictionary?

How does one change the default spelling dictionary for Safari on Windows? For the Mac, it changes in response to the default locale, but on Windows, it just sets to American English and you cannot change it anywhere I can see. All my locale information in Windows is set to UK English.
In fact on some websites, like this one, the spelling checker seems to be disabled! I'm on Windows 7 64-bit, BTW, running Safari 5.1.7

I think I just found the answer (though I don't know why the interface is buried this way). Find a word that the American spell check is flagging, right click on it, select Spelling and Grammar, and then select Show Spelling and Grammar. Make sure that the language listed at the bottom says British English (not my choice of what to call it, so please don't blame the messenger).

IWeb and spelling dictionary

I use a lot of technical terms which I tell the dictionary to learn. It works fine the rest of that session. Next time I start up iWeb, it hasn't remembered any of the "learned" words.

Can you explain the alternate language dictionaries
and how you get access to them or switch between
them?
They are accessed via Edit > Spelling > Spelling > Dictionary.
Also what format do they take? Is it possible to edit
and build them yourself?
I am mainly interested in German, Italian, Spanish,
Serbo-Croatian and Mandarin/Cantonese. But the more
the merrier s:-)
For spellchecking dictionaries beyond those provided by Apple, use CocoaSpell or other options mentioned here. I've not heard of anyone trying to make their own.

How to use New Oxford Spelling Dictionary in InDesign CS5

Hi,
Can anyone help me where I have to download "New Oxford Spelling Dictionary 3rd Ed" for InDesign CS5.
Thanks,

Hi Steve,
One of our client has asked this hyphenation pattern.
That is, when we do the composition, all the hyphenated word present in the Indesign file for the particiular client should follow "New Oxford Spelling Dictionary 3rd Ed" dictionary.
Thanks,
Gopal

Version 31.0 refuses to install spelling dictionary

New installs or profiles of Firefox 31.0 refuse to install the spelling dictionary Nederlands with: "Not available for Firefox 31.0", which is silly because the dictionary in question is working just fine in existing versions of Firefox (where this spelling dictionary was installed earlier) that have been updated to 31.0 .
How do I get Firefox to install the dictionary anyway/? I have this problem with a new install on my laptop (Ubuntu Linux) and a new profile on my PC (Slackware Linux).

Just click that grayed "Add to Firefox" button and click "Install Anyway".

Edit OSX Spelling dictionary - can't delete words

How do I delete an word from the OSX spelling dictionary? Some words in my dictionary do not conform to the latest “Gaelic Orthographic Conventions - 2005” (See www.sqa.org.uk). I can add correct version words, but I want to get rid of the old version.
I have read the Mac Help article "Using advanced spell-checking options": which says “If you accidentally add a mis-spelled word to the dictionary, type the mis-spelling in the Spelling dialogue, and click Forget”
Unfortunately this does not help. The old word is not removed. Is there a file I can edit in some other way?

Sam makes a good point. If there is something you don't like about the Apple dictionary, you can use others, either from the internal supply or by downloading from this site:

Dodgy add-on - French spelling dictionary - bloody nuisance - why?

Down-loaded French spelling dictionary ADD-ON from Mozilla. Got no dictionary but a TRICOLOR attached to my Book-marks tool-bar, which I can't remove. Clicking on the Tricolor links to a Blog about physiotherapy.
NOT GOOD & if it can't be removed I shall have to switch to a different Browser.
John Macdiarmid

That's quite strange. What's the exact link to the add-on in question? See the following article for directions on removing add-ons.
* [[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
I went to [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/language-tools/ the Dictionaries & Language Packs page] and installed [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/dictionnaires-fran%C3%A7ais/ the "French spelling dictionaries" add-on] linked there. It didn't add any items to the Bookmarks Toolbar or otherwise misbehave.

Selecting a spelling dictionary with AppleScript

I would like is to have several buttons on Mail's toolbar and have an Applescript attached to each that sets the spelling dictionary language. Can this be done?
Daniel

I don't know for the buttons, but here is a script that can set the language used in the spelling dictionary (at least with Mail 3.5 and Mac OS X 10.5.6). The script has been written for the French Canadian keyboard and could need some minor changes when used with other keyboards.
set L to "Français"
tell application "Mail"
activate
tell application "System Events"
tell application process "Mail"
set W to windows whose (subrole is "AXFloatingWindow" and (name contains "orthographe" or name contains "spelling"))
if W is {} then
keystroke ":" using command down -- with the French Canadian keyboard
set N to 1
click pop up button 1 of window N
click menu item L of menu 1 of pop up button 1 of window N
delay 1
click button 1 of window N
else
set W1 to item 1 of W
click pop up button 1 of W1
click menu item L of menu 1 of pop up button 1 of W1
end if
end tell
end tell
end tell

Spelling Dictionary missing

My spelling dictionary is CS2 is missing. I've re installed the program, yet it is still not showing up. How can I re install it?

Thanks so much for your help. It was set to some language called Pyccknn, whatever that is.
I had to select all before changing it, otherwise it seemed to only apply to where my cursor was. Does anyone know if there is a preferences to make new documents in english?

Edit spelling dictionary

Does Firefox 5.0 not store spelling lists in the persdict.dat file anymore? I accidentally added a word to the dictionary and now I want to remove it, but I can't find the file in the C:\Documents and Settings\[User]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[abcdefg.default] directory.

you will be able to reset it and it wont save words you have stored
To reset your T9 dictionary without resetting your phone, go to C:/Predic using a 3rd party file manager (the built in manager won’t work, I’d suggest Y-Browser)… delete the .dat file that is in that folder.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

Spelling dictionary seems to be missing

I recently updated to leopard and when I opened pages, every one of my words is spelled wrong. I'm assuming that it can't find the dictionary. Was working fine before. Any suggestions?
