Reset Keyboard Prediction​s & Suggestion​s?

Does the keyboard predictions and suggestions feature have a memory?  If so, I would like to reset it but can't find anything about it in settings or in help to indicate whether or not this can be done.  It seems seems to have a memory and suggests odd words, non-words or even websites based on past history to the exclusion of other, more likely, useful words.  I've tried turning the feature on and off, doing a hard reset, etc. but am wondering if I have to do a complete wipe of the playbook in order for it to reset.  Thanks!

Go to Solution.

You can delete predictions one by one.   Start a blank email and begin typing a predicted word you want to remove.  Then touch and hold the predicted word until a window opens asking if you want to remove, then select remove.

  • I've lost my Keyboard predictions

    I update OS 2 to 2.0.1.358 & my Keyboard predictions stopped working. 
    Tried turning keyboard predictions off & on in the keyboard settings, rebooting the playbook, then rebooting holding the volume controls & power button with no luck. Any suggestions?

    You can also try the three button reset. Hold down the Power Button and both volume buttons at the same time for 15 seconds and then wait 1 minute then hold the power button only until the red light flashes then release it and wait for the PB to reboot which will be about 4 minutes.

  • 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.

  • XI have just replaced my hard drive and uploaded my backup. Now iPhoto won't launch or reset and relaunch. Suggestions?

    I have just replaced my hard drive (more memory) and uploaded my Time Machine backup. Now iPhoto won't launch or reset and relaunch. Suggestions?

    Well without no information to work with, try reinstall.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • 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...

  • I turned off my Verizon phone in Birmingham getting on a plane to Houston. When I arrived tonite I turned it back on and it says"searching" I do not have it in airplane mode and I have done a soft reset. Any other suggestions. This is a new iPhone 5

    In settings>general>restrictions>location services>system services do you have cell network search set to off? If so turn it on and it may help to find a signal faster.

  • 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.

    In that case....if you have Apple Care, give support a call - otherwise, walk it into the nearest Apple Store.
    Good luck.

  • My MacBook keyboard and track pad stopped functioning after pairing an Apple wireless mouse and keyboard. Any suggestions?

    My MacBook keyboard and track pad stopped functioning after pairing an Apple wireless mouse and keyboard. Any suggestions?

    I deleted the mouse by selecting it in the bluetooth options and clicking the minus tab. I went ahead and reinstalled OS X right afterwards. Right now I am having to use a USB mouse and keyboard. I disconnected both prior to start up. I get a widow that shows a demonstration on how to install batteries into a wireless mouse only way to pass that screen was to reattach the USB mouse. Then with a fresh startup no resolve.

  • Bottom of my ipod screen won't respond, so i reset factory settings as suggested, it didn't help and now i can't log in to itunes as my apple id password has numbers in it

    few issues here. firstly, the bottom section of my ipod touch 4th gen won't respond. it'll let me slide to unlock but not tap anything, including to change between keyboards which brings me onto my second problem. i did a factory reset because a few people on here had suggested it, but now i can't log into my apple account because my password has numbers in. is there a way to bypass this requirement? or fix my ipod? i can't afford a replacement

    jeez guys thanks for the help!

  • 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?

  • I can no longer log into my online banking website and have tried all of the suggested Firefox fixes apart from resetting Firefox, any other suggestions?

    When I try to enter my customer number to log into my online banking website, an error message reads:
    This form has been re-submitted. Re-enter your customer number and submit only once.
    When I called the bank to find out if they could help they said it was a browser issue and suggested I should use IE or Chrome (No thanks!).
    I have gone through all of the Firefox suggested troubleshooting fixes including deleting the cookie files. I have not yet tried resetting Firefox as I was hoping for a simpler solution before taking this step.
    Thanks for any help you may be able to offer.

    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

  • After upgrading from 3.6.16 (Mac) to v. 4, the "organize Bookmarks" menu item is gone. Also, the Downloads window will not come up (I have reset the Toolbars as suggested elsewhere.)

    The above says it all:
    No "Organize Bookmarks" item at all in the Bookmarks menu.
    I have the prefs set to display the Downloads window when downloading, but it doesn't appear. Downloads do happen correctly. Clicking on the Downloads item in the Tools menu does nothing. I reset toolbars as suggested somewhere else on the troubleshooting site - no joy.

    Thanks re: Bookmarks.
    After going through all the routines suggested in the link above (and other related links,) I got the Downloads window to open when making a new download, but clicking on Downloads in the Tools menu still will not reveal the window manually.
