Reset Keyboard Dictionary doesn't work

Hi everybody, i have tried several times to reset the keyboard dictionary to get rid of all the silly suggestions when i am typing a message or an Email, but it doesn't seems to work.
How can i reset it for sure?
Thanx

Do you expect 'Reset' to get rid of those spellings that you've rejected or those spellings that were presented as options?
You may have inverted your expectation compared with what 'Reset' actually does?

It sounds like it is time to restore from the backups you made just before making the disk changes.
You can re-partition and restore your backups. If you didn't make backups first (you were warned that it might damage things and to make sure you had a good backup) then you will need to repartition everything and reinstall from scratch...

Resetting keyboard dictionary not working

I have a friend with the original iPhone, the dictionary on his phone had learnt to correct certain words in annoying ways, for instance the word 'thats' to 'THATS'.
He wanted to clean up his phone a bit anyway so restored the iPhone OS and once he had done that selected the 'Reset keyboard dictionary' option from the settings in the hope that it would remove these annoying corrections but it has not, he has restarted etc several times but it has not cleared the words his dictionary has learnt.
Is there something he is doing wrong or is there any other way of resetting the dictionary?
Thanks,
Matt

You still having this problem?
This is an intermittent bug in ios (notice mine didn't autocorrect the caps on ios just there). I have ios 5. Ever since I updated to it from ios 4.x, it's failed to reset the keyboard dictionary.
We're not alone. http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=13981502
It's quite frustrating, this iOS keyboard (notice it corrected iOS that time). It works well enough to function but has a lot of very inconsistent (yet frequent) weird behaviors. One personal annoyance to me is the problem being a fast two fingered typer in landscape. I almost ways lose the "t" on "the" "that" "then" etc because it decides my rapid th is a mistake.
Report to Apple and pray. That's all we can do.

Sounds like it could be a hardware problem.
Try a restart or reset to see if that helps. If not, contact Apple Support.
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

Can't reset keyboard dictionary

Hi. I'm trying to reset the iPhone 4S' iOS 5.0.1 keyboard dictionary, but the instructions all over the 'Net don't work for me. I go in to Setting > General > Reset > Reset Keyboard Dictionary and complete the process, but it doesn't seem to have an effect. For example, I often abbreviate tomorrow with tmrw and I told me phone to learn tmrw. I remember the first time I typed it, I told the phone to learn it. But after doing the keyboard reset and I type tmrw, it still recognizes it. It's supposed to NOT recognize the abbreviation after the reset.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks.

I have the same issue. Dozens of incorrect words in my dictionary and of course they are for the most common words I type. Resetting the keyboard does nothing. Resetting the entire phone does nothing. Erasing the entire phone does nothing.
Just this morning I figured out 'something' of a fix. I'm sure the issue remains where the keyboard is building up illegitimate words but my solution has given me a fresh start.
I simply added the ENGLISH UK keyboard and deleted the standard ENGLISH keyboard. I did this in:
SETTING>GENERAL>KEYBOARD>INTERNATIONAL KEYBOARDS
I then deleted the US keyboard.
This seems to have gotten rid of my problem words. Thank God. sbout (about) and sonethigb (something) were pushing me toward throwing the phone against the wall.
Looks like this has provided some level of 'fix' for me. I'm going to text very gingerly here for the first few weeks and do my best not to accidentally proceed with non-words. I figure this keyboard dictionary still will save every word that comes into it and be unable to reset so I figure I'm kicking the proverbial can down the road but hey, at least it's a fresh start...

What is the reset keyboard dictionary for (settings reset reset keyboard dictionary) ??

What is the reset keyboard dictionary option for? (settings> general> reset> reset keyboard dictionary)

It removes any words that you've added to the user dictionary :
You add words to the keyboard dictionary by rejecting words iPad suggests as you type. Tap a word to reject the correction and add the word to the keyboard dictionary. Resetting the keyboard dictionary erases all words you’ve added.

TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226). I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work) - HELP!!

My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow).
In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work.
I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
Here is the kicker! In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
thanks and regards

I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.

IPod won't work - Help!

I only just received my iPod Nano 4GB as a gift and it won't work. It works fine while plugged into my PC, and I can import music from iTunes to it, but as soon as I unplug it, the screen goes a bit fuzzy, freezes and slowly fades out - despite the fact that the iPod is fully charged. It won't allow me to reset it (via the toggle button/Menu/select either, and it won't respond when plugged into the mails either, only the computer.
Please help if you can! I've never used my iPod and I'll be really upset if it turns out to be broken - especially as I'm from the UK and all of the complimentary helplines I can find on the Apple website are for US only...

thats the type of thing they invented warrentys for!

F7 and F8 Keyboard shortcuts won't work correctly.

I've just recently installed LR3.6 and it's my first experience with LR. I've been following Lynda.com tutorials and all of a sudden the F7 and F8 function keys won't work.
The F7 just does nothing and the F8 opens iTunes every time I press it. I've tried everthing I know (not being much of a Techie) without success. I installed one upgrade download since I installed the original CD software. Should I just delete the program and re-install the program? I believe the F-keys were woking originally. I'm sorry, but I was going thru the tutorials and not being as observant as I should. All I know for certain is that they do not work now.
I'm using an iMac 27 with the wireless keyboard. OSX 10.6.8.
Thanks for any help. - John, Vancouver, WA

Keyboard lights won't work

so i have a mid-2009 macbook pro: 13-inch, 2.26Ghz.
it was running 2GBs of RAM until this afternoon when i upgraded it myself to 3GBs with a 2GB stick.
i followed the instructions from apple to the absolute letter. however now, my keyboard lights aren't working. but it's funny... usually in direct light, the Fn keys that control the keyboard lights won't allow you to adjust the light, right? but they will for me, except there's no light to adjust.
i couldn't have done something, right?! i mean... i was was super careful and only handled the ram section, after which i blew off some dust and sealed it up again.
please help!

sadly... no success
i followed the instructions exactly; restarting and all. no luck. i did hold the buttons though... is it supposed to be a hold, or a quick "hit"?
i saw your post about a better look, so i opened the back again and took a better picture.

you can see the connector just below. i tried, again, to make it go in. it fits, but i can't get it to stay. that must be the job of a professional. i can't do anymore now - i'm too involved, and i'm worried i may break more than just some stupid backlighting on my keyboard.
in other news: iphoto does open a lot faster now!
thanks again.

My keyboard lighting won't work. I can't turn the light up on the keyboard?

The keyboard light control (F6 key) won't work...someone help please?

The MacBook uses it's camera to detect the light level in a room and ajust the screen/keyboard brightness appropriately. If you are outside or in a well-lit place, your Mac will sense this and give you a circle and slash sort of symbol when you press F6 to tell you that you are unable to turn the keyboard lights on.
You can disable this feature by going into System Preferences>Keyboard>Uncheck Ajust Keyboard Brightness in Low Light.

Try to set it up as new device, explained here:

First without using the backup, in case it contains corrupt data.
If it works after that, use the backup to restore from.

Zoom keyboard shortcut won't work with "Italian Pro" keyboard, Zoom keyboard shortcut won't work with "Italian Pro" keyboard

Hi everyone,
I am trying to get to the bottom of this mystery. "Italian Pro" is the keyboard I use almost all the time, and for some reason this zoom shortcut won't work. Another user assured me that "cmd-+" is the shortcut also in that keyboard. Mine doesn't work though. I have tried removing the keyboard and reapplying it. I've tried to use it on different browsers and different applications. I've even created another user and logged into that, installing the keyboard there. Nothing has worked, so can anyone suggest anything? What do I do next? (I know it doesn't seem like much but the issue really interferes with the flow of my things) Thank you!

Is Italian Pro
a. the keyboard, or,
b. the keyboard layout
you use all the time?
for some reason this zoom shortcut won't work.
What zoom are you talking about?
The View > Zoom In command in Safari or Preview?
The Universal Access > Zoom In function?
The Zoom In command in some other app, eg, InDesign?
Some other Zoom entirely?
Another user assured me that "cmd-+" is the shortcut also in that keyboard.
If we're talking about (b) and (1), then this 'other user' (his initials wouldn't be TG, would it?) was right. My keyboard is US QWERTY, and, if I switch to Italian Pro, ⌘-+ works. However, as the 'other user' has already told you, to do ⌘-+ with the Italian Pro keylayout on the US QWERTY keyboard, you have to press simultaneously the keys labelled ⌘ and ] -- as you can easily see in Keyboard Viewer.
