Where is spell check and insert signature

ANGRY that when I access my company e-mail through Outlook Web Access, there is no ability to spell check and no way to insert signature.
So....do I have to check my e-mail on a PC to get these features...say it is not so.

Right click (if you have a 2 button mouse) or control-click in the window of safari. a menu will pop up.
You will see an option for spelling. You will go down to it and when you do you can open up the spelling window itself (first option), have it check the spelling in the text entry window (second option), or have it check it as you type (3rd option).
he signature is a different story. it will be an option in your companies web mail program. Look for settings there. Web mail programs have settings just as regular desktop mail does.
If that fails and there is no signature option then a solution would be to use stickies or a text editor to type up a signature then use copy and paste to put it in the end of your email (copy is command-c, paste command-v).

Writing in pages in Afrikaans. Spellcheck keep on correcting to dutch. Switched off spell check and checkeed keyaboard settings. Where do I get languages other than what Apple offer and where is the dictionary, Library, spelling files.

Writing in pages in Afrikaans. Spellcheck keep on correcting to dutch. Switched off spell check and also looked in System preferences - keyboard. this stops the "Auto-correct" but does not help me with Afrikaans or other language spell check. Where do I get languages other than what Apple offer and where is the dictionary, Library, spelling files.

You are basically limited to what Apple deigns to offer.
Try LibreOffice [free] which has a huge selection of languages.

Spell Check and Ellipsis

I'm writing out a story on Dreamweaver, and I am frequently writing dialogue with ellipses (those triple periods indicating a pause) mid-sentence. I've been taught by multiple sources on grammar that an ellipsis at the end of the sentence is followed by a space, whereas one in the middle of the sentence is not. However, Dreamweaver's spell check seems to have issue with ellipses that have no spaces between them and the words before and after them.
It almost seems to disregard the ellipsis entirely and mistakenly see the two words it's written between as one jumbled word. I have to hit ignore every time it brings an instance up while checking my spelling. Does anyone know what causes this in Dreamweaver's spell check, and is there any way to work around it so I don't have to keep telling it to ignore every instance?

Ben has your solution.
In order to type an ellipsis on my Mac, I just hold down the [option] button and press ";" and I get an ellipsis. But not on a website. In many cases, the character that comes up on some browsers is a black diamond (actually the color is whatever you are using in your style sheet for the font color) with a question mark in it.
This is to say, don't use an ellipsis character. Use the HTML code for the character, which will be rendered properly in all browsers. The code for an ellipsis is … or … which must be entered in your Code View.
Now, what you could do is type an ellipsis character and do Dreamweaver's Find and Replace to correctly replace the character with the code. Make sure that Find is searching for Source Code.
I don't use spell check in Dreamweaver. I keep a TextEdit or Notepad application open for words I'm not sure about and check spelling outside of the application. Dreamweaver CS3 did not have spell check and so I have retained that workflow for my documents.

RH7 - Spell Checker and Smart Index Wizard looking in all folders?

Hi all,
RE: RH7 - Spell Checker and the Smart Index Wizard looking in all folders instead of just TOC topics?
While running the Spell Checker and the Smart Index Wizard I am getting the impression they are looking in *all* the folders under the Project Files folder, and not just the topics I have chosen to insert into my TOC. Is this true? If so, is it possible to set RH so that it only looks in TOC topics?
TIA
- avraham

Hi Peter -
Thanks for your reply. Yes, the pop-up topics are in the same
folders as the other topics and I am choosing "Any Status" (right
now all of the topics in the project are the same status anyway).
What's even stranger is that after I posted my original
message, I found that it picked up about five of my 100 or so
pop-up topics, yet ignored the rest. I cannot find ANYTHING about
these included topics that differs from the ignored topics.
Bizarre.
Since I need to move forward ASAP, I am now going through
each pop-up topic individually and using the Smart Index option on
the Topic Properties Index tab. It works just fine; is just
time-consuming, but actually may end up saving me time on the Index
in the long-run, since I can define which keywords Robo adds to
each topic on the front-end (not have to prune out worthless
entries later).
My guess is that this issue may have to do with the
conversion of the files from RH 5 to RH 6. It shouldn't - all of
the pop-up topics were added after I converted to RH 6, but I've
noticed odd things can happen when you bring a project into a newer
version of the program.
Thanks again, Peter.
I don't have an answer but I have a workaround that
I can live with!

Hi, can someone please tell me why the spell check in pages doesn't work. I went to preferences and enabled this auto spell checker and have set the language to british english. But still it doesn't work while it works perfectly in TextEdit.

Inspector > Text > More > Language
Only applies to selected text, like making it a particular font.
It is not a setting that sticks. If you continue to paste in text from elsewhere particularly the Internet it will have a different or None language set to it. You need to select it and make it B.E.

Pages spell check and Mac dictionary

I find it annoying that Pages' spell-check is not synchronized with Mac Dictionary/Thesaurus. There are words I type that are shown as misspelled, but exist in the Dictionary program. Why not sync the two? It's annoying how many legitimate words Pages thinks are misspelled.

bk,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
I completely agree. OS X's dictionary and thesaurus are excellent, and it would be nice to have them integrated into Pages spell-check and learned words functions.
Please leave feedback for the Pages team.

Spell check and word suggestion doesn't work Droid 4

My wife and I both have Motorola Droid 4s. I have had mine for almost a year, and she has had hers just a week. After I factory reset mine to fix a spell check problem, I noticed that the spell check still doesn't automatically fix errors, and there is no word suggestion. Her's is doing the same thing. When I looked for this issue online, I found numerous other Motorola Droid 4 owners having the same problem.
Since we text a LOT, this is certainly a major inconvenience. We would like to know if there is a fix for this issue, is it OS version and phone specific, and when an update/fix can be expected.
Thank you for your time!

The settings you gave me are the same as I and my wife have set except for the keyboard and input methods. For us, android is checked but disabled (gray), moto chinese input is checked, and swype is checked but disabled and gray. Same as it was when spell check and suggestions didn't work. Now ours is working but what is really interesting is that we never changed anything since it wasn't working. We just woke up the day after posting this and it was working. Hmm. I left the moto chinese checked because why tempt fate?
Thank you for your reply and information. That fact is, my spell check worked for a year and then suddenly it did not. My wife's didn't even out of the box, then the day after I post, ours works perfect. Coincidence? Who cares. =)

Onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"

How do I increase the onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"? I just tried to spell check a document and the font size was so small I can't see what it says. Also, when you click on 'font' to change it, I wish the list of fonts was larger so I could see it clearer. I have pretty good vision so it's not that, it's just the size of the font....it must be at least 6! Thanks for your help.

Hi, Diane. I don't know what sort of display you're using, but it sounds like you have a flat LCD display. At any resolution lower than its maximum, a flat-screen LCD display is always blurry, and the lower the resolution, the blurrier it is. This is because unlike a CRT display, an LCD has a fixed number of physical pixels in it that can't be changed. If you instruct it to "pretend" it has a smaller number of larger pixels by setting it for a lower resolution, each of the "pretend" pixels has to be made up of several real pixels instead of just one, and no pixel can be (for example) half white and half blue: a pixel is an indivisible unit that is always all one color. So the only way the hardware can use several pixels to represent one larger one is to gradate the colors of those pixels as best it can to approximate the intended image, and that inevitably spreads the gradation out — which is exactly what blurring is. This is just an inbuilt property of LCD displays, not a defect that needs to be (or can be) fixed. The solution is to buy a display that works well for you at its highest resolution — which will probably mean a lower-resolution display than you have now.

How to create a text area with spell check and other functions similar to word?

I want to allow users the ability to copy and paste their content on to the site. The problem is giving them the option to use spell check and other word like features to my site. My goal is to develop some thing similar to how we post our question in this forums.

Some old and some new.

You realize you'll need to use server-side scripts and a database for this. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, you might just want to install WordPress, Drupal or Joomla on your site.

Where is spell check on my computer

where is my spell check on my computer?
Im new to apple and I cant really get the full effect of it to I learn it please help

You don't have a Classic operating system, if you have a Mac Pro. Classic operating systems went extinct in 2006. Depending on your application the spell check is built-in. What program are you using? What operating system are you using?

[SOLVED]firefox/thunderbird spell checker and the mass of languages

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a possibility to remove some entries from the spell checker language selection. Even without any extra language pack installed, there are about 15 different English version available. I have to write emails in more than 3 different languages per day, so it takes about 5 seconds to find the right one in the big list. So any one knows a "hack" or addon that can hide or remove some of these entries, so i can leave the 7 important ones i really need? I want to use the precompiled from the official repo, but if only compile from source will do it im fine with it.
thanks in advance.

HomeSite 5.0 Spell Check and Alt tags

Hi folks.
I am in e-mail marketing and I love the tools in HomeSite.
Generally, prior to a launch I will perform a three-step check of a
document ...
1) Verify Links (checks images and hyperlinks)
2) Spell Check
3) Validate Current Document (HTML code check)
Until yesterday, I felt very comfortable with my pre-launch
routine. Until someone uncovered a typo in one of my e-mail
messages Alt="" tags.
It seems that the Spell Check function by default does not
check the content of an Alt="" tag.
WELL, WHY NOT!!!! It seems like a pretty big oversight to me.
If anyone knows how to get around this or force the
Spell Checker to treat Alt="" tags to be checked, please let me
know
Thanks.
Steve

Steve, HomeSite is a very flexible program and naturally
different people have different requirements. Where you would like
it to spell check tag attributes, most would not (since many tag
attributes would not be legit words).
So HS let's you control this. The default is NOT to spell
check tags within HTML attributes. To change it, use
Options>Settings>Spelling and turn off "ignore html markup"
in its "options" list.
You may ask, "well how the heck would I know that?" Here's
another useful tip: HS has help, and it's searchable. Yep, there's
an entire manual on using HS that many never notice. To get to it,
use Help>Open Help References Window, Then click the binocular
icon and do your search. Or you can get the PDF of the manual at
http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/homesite/.
Hope that's helpful.

How can I get Apple to pay attention to improving spell check and grammar?

I love this company and the products they develop.   I am embarrassed at the number of Apple products that I have at this point. However, I have to say that the spelling and grammar check on Mac Mail is awful. I am a terrible speller, and am constantly forced to go to Google to find the correct spelling of a word that seems to totally confuse Apple spell check. But here is the thing, you often need only have one letter missing or incorrect for Mac's spell check to show no results.
For example: cannibalize.   Try spelling it with one "n" and the spell check will show NO results. Use two N's correctly, but replace the "i" with an "a" and again it is completely useless. Obviously, this is ridiculous. What good is a spell check that get's confused if you are one letter off of the correct spelling? There are thousands of these examples, and sadly, I seem to find them all.
Moreover, when it does have suggestions, they are in a ridiculous order as well.   If it suggest 5 or six words, it generally seems to suggest extremely long tail (rare) words first, and the have the most commonly used words listed last (or again, not at all).
Grammar is similarly awful.   It is the ONE area as far as I am concerned that is clearly better on Windows and Google Apps, and yet seems so basic these days. It's been around for 20 years for goodness sake.
I bring this up in the hopes that a truly motivated developer will fix core functionality.   In the meantime any tips for me (besides snarky advice about learning to spell).
Rick

I totally agree with you, I as well, cannot compose any complex messages in Mail, however I'm am stuck using a browser extension like "Gramercy" to assist me! Maybe after many replies Apple will address the issue

InDesign cs6 spell check and master pages

I have created a set of master pages for a template in InDesign cs6. When I create a document from this template and apply "spelling", the spell check goes through every master page before moving to the document. How can I stop spell check from going to master pages unless, of course, the master page is highlighted? I have tried locking all master page objects and have also tried selecting the option of not allowing selection of master page locked objects. I have allowed, and disallowed, the override on master page items Nothing seems to work. I would like "spelling" to apply only the pages in the document, or only the selected page in the document.

If you go to Edit>Spelling>Check Spelling
You get a dialog box - the only options are for All Documents, Current Document, Story, To End of Story, or Selection
These are the options for checking spelling, ignore masters is not an option, unfortunately.
But you can select a range of text and use the Selection option to check the spelling.
Hope that helps.
