Resetting Auto-complete

Is there any way to reset autocomplete in safari without restoring because my friend has been typing in a different language using the English keyboard and it keeps suggesting foreign words to me.
Any help appreciated.

Forger It, I just worked it out!!

  • How to reset auto completion?

    Hello,
    I know how to disable the auto-completion in Numbers but how can I reset this feature? In some cells it completes integer numbers to dates but only the zeros and the ones and not in every table of the document.
    Regards,
    Steffen

    Do you mean auto completion on an individual cell or auto completion of text?
    In the Inspector under Cells, Cell Format can be Automatic - this means that text entered like dates (4/10) are converted to dates: 4th October 2007.
    To reset on individual cells - select the cells and in the Inspector, Cells, Cell Format choose 'Automatic' from the drop down menu. When a date is entered it is formatted as a date, if afterwards you enter a basic number (10.1) in the cell it will be reformatted as a number.

  • How to reset the auto-complete email adresses?

    How can I delete old email addresses from auto complete?
    I have been having trouble trying to find out how to delete the old typed email history. For an example, if I go to send a picture to Bob, I start typing Bob and it comes up with 3 old emails of his. Not a big deal except it's hard to keep track of what emails are current.
     In other words, after deleting the old emails in the contacts it still shows up when I start typing a person's name. 

    I am having the same problem on my IPad.  It appears these old email addresses are saved in the memory and from what I read, there is no way to delete them regardless if you delete the contact.  Hopefully in a future update that can be resolved.  It is very annoying though.

  • How to delete the existing list and prevent auto-completed web sites?

    Hi, As soon as I start to type "www" in the address bar, a list of previously visited web sites appears, as if auto-completed. They seem rather random, and not necessarily the most recent ones. I have tried resetting Safari, deleting the cache, looking these sites up in the various plist folders in the Library, using Safari in Private mode, etc. but it still happens. I find it a nuisance.
    How do I delete the existing sites, and how do I prevent more from appearing in the future?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    HI,
    Go to Safari/Preferences - AutoFill
    Click where it says: Edit
    You can Remove All or edit which url's you don't want.

  • How do I stop auto-complete of URl's?

    When I type a URL I get at autcomplete of suggested URL's I have typed in the past and a drop down list of URL's I have typed in the past. How to I turn this off or at least clear it? I have already tried clearing my history and auto complete and I am still getting that.

    There has got to be a way to erase that autofill information.
    The only way I know how to clear it is not a good way. It would be *Reset Safari* which to me would be overkill. He would be better off not leaving any evidence to have to clear. Tell your friend to go to Safari in the menu bar. Now click *Private Browsing*. That will allow him to surf to his hearts content and nothing is saved to the autofill or other incriminating places:->
    This is what it says when you get ready to activate it.
    +When private browsing is turned on, webpages are not added to the history, items are automatically removed from the Downloads window, information isn't saved for AutoFill (including names and passwords), and searches are not added to the pop-up menu in the Google search box. Until you close the window, you can still click the Back and Forward buttons to return to webpages you have opened.+

  • How can I get back Mail Auto-Complete email addresses?

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mail no longer works with the auto-complete of email address.
    My Contacts.app works fine, it just seems that Mail is no longer able to 'read' from my Contacts.
    I use iCloud and everything was great for years.  Mail preferences is set to Auto-Complete email address from my Contacts.
    Not sure how the problem started, but I launched Mail on a 2nd computer  - on the same iCloud.
    Shortly after I did that, my 1st Mac no longer auto-completes email.  I'm unsure if that is what set off the problem.
    Also, I 'did' read Tom Nelson's article which did not work since it's not an 'alias' problem:
    http://macs.about.com/od/MacTroubleshootingTips/qt/What-To-Do-When-Mountain-Lion -Mail-Fails-To-Auto-Complete-Email-Addresses.htm
    Also, there doesn't appear to be a com.apple.mail.plist preferences file I can even delete in Mountain Lion.
    I use Dropbox, but have never it to sync Addresses, Calendar, etc.
    Any help greatly appreciated!

    I had the same issue. After reading this solution I started poking around in the Container folder and found that there was a symlink for AddressBook that was messed up which was causing the problem. In ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Application Support I ran:
    $ cd ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Application\ Support
    $ ls -lh
    AddressBook -> ??/???7??ʪ?????VT???;??\G[?:??:??????T?_Ү??
    CrashReporter
    Mail
    SyncServices -> ../../../../../Application Support/SyncServices
    iCloud -> ../../../../../Application Support/iCloud
    Seeing the aliases for SyncServices and iCloud, I guessed correctly that I just needed to recreate the AddressBook alias to point to the right place. So I just removed the alias for AddressBook, recreated it, restarted Mail, and it worked perfectly. (Note: I did the following to remove the alias, and recreate it. You should confirm what you are removing is an alias. You should also always make sure you have a backup.)
    $ cd ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Application\ Support
    $ rm AddressBook
    $ ln -s ../../../../../Application\ Support/AddressBook AddressBook
    Obviously, DrewSchatt's  original solution to this works as well, but this way you don't have to delete the whole folder, resetting your preferences and possibly delete something else important (only recreating the alias, not deleting any files or data).

  • LOV auto-completion is not working (1)

    When the user types in a partial value in the messageLovInput and tabs out, the value gets auto-completed if there is a unique match. If there is not unique match, then the LOV modal window opens up.
    In some cases, you may see that typing in a partial value and tabbing out does not do anything, except for moving the focus on the base page. This can be because of the following reasons.
    1. You may have explicitly turned off auto-completion, by specifying the value of property "Disable Validation" to true.
    2. You may be using a browser that does not support PPR. Auto-completion relies on the PPR functionality, and it does not work in environments where PPR is not supported. For example, Netscape 4.75 does not support PPR. IE 6 and Mozilla 1.7 support PPR.

    Try a reset and see if it fixes the problem. You will not lose any data.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My Norton Internet Security, Passwrd and user name auto complete doesn't work in Firefox 4

    Since updating to Firefox 4 my user name and password auto complete form Norton Internet security doesn't work.

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • Gnome Alt+F2 auto-complete not working

    Hello,
    When pressing ALT+F2 and typing some command the auto-complete does not work.
    Already tried backing up and removing both ~/.config/dconf and ~/.gconf and it didn't fix.
    Also one thing to notice is that other users on the same machine doesn't have the problem.
    Any thought?
    Ps: It was here since before 3.2 update and didn't get fix after the update.
    Thanks

    I have the same problem. Tried using the mouseover to the top-left corner and typing the command. Also invoking the superkey. When I start typing in everything freezes.
    Update: I did open applications using the gnome-terminal       $ application-name &
                  to start firefox with no problems.  Also did move away /.config/dconf and /.gconf .   Still the same.  When it freezes all I can do is a hardware reset. very strange     doing it in Linux, i tell you.
                 This isn't happening before I added any Online Accounts. Somebody has to rethink this much integration with the Cloud I think.

  • Clear the auto complete function of Mail addresses? Désactiver la saisie semi automatique des adresses Mail sur iPad?

    Je ne souhaite pas que les differentes adresses pré-utilisées s'affichent quand je veux taper une adresse mail et envoyer un nouveau message. Comment désactiver la saisie semi automatique qui m'affichent ces différentes adresses? ex: si je tape la lettre "p" j'ai 4 adresses qui sont pré-sélectionnées et je ne veux pas ça.
    Merci d'avance
    I don't want the email addresses used for previous sent messages to show when I input the first letter of the desired receiver of the message. How can I disactivate the auto complete function of the mail addresses? i.e. when I type the letter "p", I don't want the 4 addresses starting with "p" to show.
    Thanks.

    If you erase the iPad completely, (erase all content and settings) the addresses will go away, but they will return again as soon as you start sending emails again and entering text in the To: field. And you will have to set the iPad up all over again.
    If you reset all settings - they will not go away.
    Erasing the device is pretty radical and it is only a temporary fix anyway. The suggested email addresses window will always pop up when you start entering text into the To: field and there is no way to deactivate it.

  • XCode 2.2 auto-complete not detecting type casting...

    Hello all,
    Pardon my lack of appropriate terms, but I need some help. I recently upgraded from XCode 2.0 to XCode 2.2 and have noticed an anomoly in behavior.
    In XCode 2.0, I could type-cast an unknown variable implicitly and XCode would use its auto-completion for the class I type-casted. For example, trying to find the count of an array called from a dictionary:
    [[myDictionary objectForKey: @"myArray"] count];
    After closing the inner brackets and trying to find the appropriate methods of NSArray (ie, I hit ESC to see my auto-complete options), XCode is obviously labeling this variable as "id" because it doesn't know what the objectForKey is going to retrieve. In XCode 2.0, I could do the following:
    [(NSArray *)[myDictionary objectForKey: @"myArray"] count];
    Doing this, XCode knew I was expecting an NSArray, and would auto-complete with only the NSArray methods. Now under XCode 2.2, the auto-complete seems confused by this type-casting, and does not list NSArray methods, and doesn't even list id methods, but instead lists what appears to be global and instance variables, not methods at all.
    It compiles properly and the app runs properly, so it seems only the auto-completion is confused. Does anyone know how to fix this back to XCode 2.0's style?
    (BTW, this was a simplified example, I often use the technique with custom classes)
    Thanks in advance.

    My settings appear to be correct. I even trashed the com.apple.xcode.plist file and trashed the .mode file in my xcodeproj to reset everything and still no go.
    Code-sense settings:
    Indexing:
    [X] Enable for all projects
    Editor Function Pop-Up:
    [X] Show Declarations
    [ ] Sort list alphabetically
    Code Completion:
    [X] Indicate when completions are available
    [X] Show arguments in pop-up list
    [X] Insert argument placeholders for completions
    Automatically Suggest: Never (I use ESC when I need suggestions)

  • Text-input component with auto-complete functionality for mobile

    Hey guys,
    I wonder if there is a text-input component with auto-complete functionality optimized for mobile development with AIR like the one that Android provides natively as you can see here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/AutoCompleteTextView.html and here http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-autocomplete.html.
    At least I didn't find it in the latest SDK and I think such a component is pretty standard nowadays. Or did I simply overlook it?
    Thank you guys for any advice.
    Regards,
    Thilo

    Hi relaxtraja,
    thanks for your reply!
    I knew that there are a lot of auto-complete scripts on the web. What I was hoping was, that Adobe provides an officially supported auto-complete component optimized for mobile as part of the SDK (like in the Android SDK as I pointed out), but that doesn't seem to be the case. It's sad, because it's an essential part of modern UIs in mobile applications.
    I've already created an auto-complete component by myself based on Spark components and I will end up using it. But I will have to optimize it for mobile applications beforehands. I just think something this essential should be provided by the SDK.
    However, thanks for posting!
    Regards,
    Thilo

    Heya Waleed,
    I use spry to create an autocomplete form that works great across browsers that have javascript enabled. You can store info in a database and parse the info to xml for a dynamic approach. Take a look at the filter examples in spry.
