Openoffice spellchecking - can't 'change all'

Hi all -
I'm having problems with the openoffice spellcheck working the way (I think) it should work.
Right now, I'm spellchecking .srt files I'm ripping from dvd. The suffix is not important, as far as I know, since they're plain text files anyway.
The problem is that gocr has misspelt a lot of words, substituting I for l etc. When the spellcheck picks this up, I edit it and click 'change all'. My understanding is that every instance of the same word will be replaced with the edited word - but this doesn't happen, I have to edit each one individually. Am I doing something wrong? Or is the spellcheck just crappy.
Thanks.

  • How can I change all of (or more than one) speaker note to a voice at once?

    Hello... 
       I have a lot of speaker notes that I need to apply a specific voice to.  How do I apply the same voice to all of the speaker notes in the whole project at once?  Or at least more than one?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!   I am working with Captivate 6.

    Hi Vikram,
      Thanks. That tip definitely helps!  You just have to be careful when you use the CNTRL button and not highlight the name of the slide as you try to highlight the voices.  If you do that, then the drop down box becomes “unclickable”.  Unfortunately, when using the control button, it is sometimes impossible not to highlight the name of the slide as well.

  • I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

    I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

    Several protocols may be used.
    Here I describe two of them.
    (1) the one which I use : install and use the "Convert to Lowercase" service available in the free WordService
    (2) copy your text, paste in TextEdit and enter the Edit menu.
    I guess that you will recognize the items in your English menu.
    I apologize but I don't know the English items.

  • How can I change all the fonts at once on labels I downloaded from Avery?

    How can I change all the fonts at once on labels I downloaded from Avery?

    select all (Edit > Select All), then open the font panel by selecting the menu item "Format > Font Show Fonts".  Now select the font you want.
    I could only find Templates from Avery for Pages.  I think my suggestion in still good but want you to know you posted this question in the forum for Numbers.

  • Can I change all fonts in iMovie at once?

    I have been asked to change the font to match my organisation's branding. Rather than going into each individual slide and clicking on the "Show Font" button, I am wondering if I can do them all at once.
    Thanks.

    I don't think you can do that. The only thing I think you can change are transitions and title styles all at once, according to Jeff Carlson. But the individual type faces aren't covered by this. The styles applied are the Centered, Lower Third, placement styles and animation styles of the titles. Those you can change en masse by picking a different one and dragging it onto one of your existing titles. That will throw up a contextual dialog box that looks like this:
    And you have many options for how to replace the style, unfortunately this doesn't extend down to the typeface, font, color, etc.

  • Can you change all classic controls to 3d ones at once.

    No you cannot.

  • Edit Capture Time - Can't change ALL

    When I select a bunch of images and try to change the capture time by an hour (Metadata/Edit Capture Time) there is no check box or button for "change all". I know I've done this in the past, but can't do it now and don't see change all. I'm using LR 5.2 and selecting the images I want to change in grid view.  Thanks

    Just a "change" button (see attached) which changes only one image

  • Can't change all files to open with CS2 with CS3 installed

    I have InDesign CS2 and CS3 installed on my macbook (10.5). CS3 is buggy to the point where its unusable, but I need it installed because once in awhile I receive files saved in that format.
    I wanted to change, through any Get Info window, all Indesign files to Open With CS2 instead of CS3. Problem is, whenever I hit "apply to all files" the OS just instantly changes the program back to CS3.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    Let me be a bit clearer.
    When I installed CS3, it switched the "Open With" program association of all my CS2 files to CS3. This means the icons for all my CS2 files changed to CS3 icons. And when I double click on my CS2 files, they open in CS3, even if I already have CS2 open. If I have CS2 open, the system just starts opening CS3.
    Worse yet, upon installing CS3, all of my CS2 files were CHANGED to CS3 files (looking under "kind" in the "info" windows.
    I had thought I could just change all INDD files to asssociate with CS2, but when I go to "Get Info" on a file (CS2 or 3, doesn't matter which), and change the "Open with" to CS2, and hit "Change All", the "Open With" Just changes right back to CS3. Augh.
    For now, I just use the "Open" dialogue in CS2 or drag and drop the files. Pain in the rear. So I thought I'd post here.
    And though I don't want this to be a discussion of whether CS3 is buggy or not, I'll just say that my system was plagued by the CS3/Leopard NavSvcs and Hide bugs, (only a problem in Mac OS 10.5), both of which have been recognized by Apple and Adobe, as well as thoroughly blogged about by Tim Cole and MacFixit, and countless others.
    My favorite is this from the InDesign 5.0.2 Readme file:
    This update does not address recently identified issues running Adobe InDesign CS3 on Mac OS
    X Leopard (v10.5.1). Known issues include the following:
    Users are unable to hide InDesign CS3 using the cmd+h keyboard shortcut.
    InDesign CS3 may unexpectedly quit when using the Place, Save, Save As or Export
    commands using either the OS or Adobe dialog boxes.
    Unfortunately, there are no workarounds for these known issues.
    Yes, that's right. I'm one of those lucky folks who's experiencing the known bug where InDesign CS3 crashes when you try to open or save a file. I'm not a troll, I just simply can't use it! Haha.

  • How can I change all Inf elements in an array to a specific value?

    I would like to change all Inf elements in my array to -1. Basically, I am looking for something similar to the range and coerce function, except that I want all values above a certain value to be a specific negative value, rather than go to that value.
    I could use a case structure and go through each element in the array, but I am hoping to find something more efficient.Any ideas?
    Solved!

  • STILL CAN'T "CHANGE ALL" SNOW LEOPARD RETARDATION.

    APPLE STOP THE RETARDATION!
    PLEASE LET PROFESSIONAL USERS HAVE THE OPTION OF OPENING ALL .MOV FILES IN QUICKTIME PRO 7!!!!
    YOU KNOW, LIKE WE USED TO BE ABLE TO DO! IN 10.5!!
    I'd downgrade if I didn't have to wipe my drive and start over...
    And QuickTimeKirk...please don't respond, as you are absolutely wrong if you think 10.6 doesn't override the option of changing the "open with" when you try to change all.
    When you're designing and rendering, you don't want to be bothered with changing each of hundreds of renders to open with the PRO version of the software on your machine!

    Kirk is not "absolutely wrong", since it works for some people, including for me, though not for others. As yet I've seen nothing to identify why it fails on some systems.

  • How Can I change all User Passwords Within a Directory Instance

    Hi Experts,
    I've been asked to refresh an old directory instance with some production data.  Easy enough I thought, however, the user has requested that all user passwords within the old directory instance are preserved.  Is that at all possible?  My chain of thought was that I can extract user passwords from the old instance into a file: -
    # ldapsearch -D cn="Directory Manager" -w xxxxxxxx -b o=xxxxxxx objectclass=* userpassword > <name of file>
    And then then use ldapmodify (or alike) to re-import the user passwords once I've refresh the old instance with the production data.  However, to my knowledge, in order to modify a particular entry via a file, i'd need the following format: -
    dn: gci=-1,ou=people,o=xxxxxxxx
    changetype: modify
    replace: userpassword
    userpassword: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    The only information I have in the file I created using the ldapsearch command above is as follows: -
    dn: gci=-1,ou=people,o=xxxxxxxx
    userpassword: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    I don't want to have to edit the file and add the relevant missing entries accordingly as the generated file has somewhere in the region of 150 thousand entries.
    Am I approaching this the correct way?  Is there any other mean of achieving my requirement.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    It does not seem a big deal to add the missing lines to your output file.
    For instance, the following awk command should do the trick
    cat search.out
    dn: gci=-1,ou=people,o=xxxxxxxx
    userpassword: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    cat search.out | awk '/userpassword/ {print "changetype: modify} ; print "replace: userpassword"; }  {print $0}
    dn: gci=-1,ou=people,o=xxxxxxxx
    changetype: modify
    replace: userpassword
    userpassword: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Then you can use ldapmodify to apply your changes

  • With Apple Remote Desktop How can I change all the computer names

    After a re-imaging session?. I would like to not have to visit each station and manually change the computer name.
    Is this at all possible using ARD?

    Hi
    I don't use DeployStudio and know nothing about it. In terms of simply changing the names? Yes. Clearly not in the same way. You could use what's built-in on OSX Server if you have it? System Image Utility allows creation of nbis with an associated workflow that can define workstation names from a pre-prepared list of MAC Addresses and desired names as a Post-Install Action.
    This is fairly well-documented in the Server Forum and elsewhere.
    HTH?

  • Can I change all the outputs on all the tracks at the same time?

    When switching from my home with my interface (output 3-4) to somewhere else where I don't have my interface, I have to change each track individually to output 1-2 so I can hear it. It takes forever because I have several tracks. Can I do them all at the same time?

    with the mixer window open, highlight all the tracks, you do this by clicking and dragging over all of them, or hold shift and select each one. now your tracks will be temporarily linked.. and what ever you do to one track will effect all of them. Cheers.
