Where is TextExpander in Yosemite?

iMac
OS 10.10.2
Does Yosemite not include TextExpander? I can't locate it anywhere. I know it's a helper app, but where are they?
Thanks for any suggestions. 

Many OS X applications have an Edit ▸ Substitutions ▸ Text Replacement. This references System Preferences ▸ Keyboard ▸ Text, where you can have characters on the left that you replace with characters on the right. With the Text Replacement sub-menu checked, you can type omw, and a popup will display the text, ”On my way!" Many of the characters on the right can be inserted either with the Edit > Special Characters palette, or using the keyboard viewer with the option key.
Looks like this (mine is actually longer):

  • Clean install won't install Yosemite

    I'm attempting to install Yosemite on a clean slate. I've followed the instructions here: http://osxdaily.com/2014/10/18/clean-install-os-x-yosemite/
    I'm at the point where I've got Yosemite on a thumb drive, I've held down option and I've erased the drive. The drive is partioned etc, there's no issues there.
    The problem is that when I close disk utility after erasing the drive, I click on 'Install OSX' literally nothing just happens. The button state doesnt change (indicating it's thinking), I can just click the button 10,000 times and nothing happens.
    I've trawled the internet for answers, it doesn't look like anyone else has experienced the same problem.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    I'm at the point where I've got Yosemite on a thumb drive
    Did you create a bootable USB installer, or do you just have a copy of the installer on the USB drive?
    If you have a bootable USB installer, did you test it before you erased your drive?

  • Yosemite on Pause

    Where on my computer is Yosemite being downloaded? I'm on Snow Leopard (10.6.8) right now, but my computer is partitioned, to where I can use Yosemite on it also.  I upgraded Lion to Yosemite, (really love it) but  the Startup disk with Yosemite no longer showed up like it did when I was on the Startup disk using Lion. So, to be able to switch back and forth between systems, I used the Terminal and typing in (diskutil cs list diskutil coreSorage revert lvUUID) which would take me to the gray screen with the two disks, plus recovery disk. I tried restoring Yosemite using SL, but I interrupted it in mid stream and I tried going back to the Yosemite startup disk and although the partition is still there, but it shows up as "Untitled," and it's empty.  I went to the app store and I'm in the middle of downloading Yosemite again, but I don't want it taking over the partition with Snow Leopard on it, because I don't want Yosemite taking over completely.  I have to many important files on SL.  Where on my computer is Yosemite being downloaded? I can't seem to locate it, which leads me to believe that it will be installed over my SL.  Am I right about this?  Any help would be appreciated and if you let me know right away it would also be appreciated, since I can't keep the downloading procedure for Yosemite on pause forever.  Thank you so much!  -Della

    Ok, never mind.  I think I may have found the answer. Being that I have hardly ever gotten any answers to my questions, basically renders this discussion board practically useless. Thanx.  -Della

  • Disc blocked by Yosemite

    Hello, I was looking for solution of my problem on the forum, tried to fix on my own but nothing worked thats why I ask for help.
    As You can see on the screen shoot I have a problem with free space on my SSD disc. I can not do nothing with it, even form a new partition, separated from the first one. After reading a bunch of articles and many tries, I think I know what the problem is. It use to be a partition where I installed my yosemite beta. I deleted entire partition with Yosemite beta, without turning off FileVault in it. (But Im not sure if that's exactly is the problem) Is there any way to fix this or I lost 30 GB of space on my disk forever? I just want to unite that free space to Macintosh HD partition.
    <Subject Edited by Host>

    I just solved that problem on my own. But If anyone will have trouble with that like me, I just created second partition on Macintosh HD, and then deleted the second partition. After that I was able to finally merge them

  • "iphone synced with another library" it isn't; please help.

    Hi all
    Tried to put a new CD onto my new iPhone 6 via iTunes.
    Music moves over to Itunes no problem, but refuses to move to phone. Greyed out with a dashed circle to left of each track name.
    Tried to move music manually; says "The iPhone “Andrew iPhone6” is synced with another iTunes library on “OFFICE-PC”. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?"
    My office PC went 3 years ago; I've checked, and I only have my Mac authorised on my account.
    PLEASE HELP. I'm going mental trying to figure this out!
    I love Apple but am struggling to see how iTunes is intuitive. Everything else Apple is so simple, iTunes is utterly annoying & time consuming.
    PLEASE NOTE:
    iMac running latest version of Yosemite....though interestingly it says "135122" where it should say Yosemite?? V10.10.2
    Brand new iPhone 6 running latest IOS 8 version. (obviously never had it when I had my PC 3+ years ago)

    The some computer glitch occurred and now iTunes thinks it was synced to another library.
    To resolve:
    - get all the synced media like apps and music in the iTunes library.
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The above link includes those instructions.

  • Mavericks clean install, won't reboot

    2009 13" MacBook Pro.  I tried to do a clean install and cleared my hard drive (using option key when restarting, recovery hd, and erasing). Mavericks installed fine, but my computer didn't restart automatically, it just took me back to the OS X utilities.  I can see the OS X Base System on my disk utility and I verified the disk and it was fine. I've tried the PRAM reset and it still doesn't work.  Every time I start my computer the only thing I can see is OS X Utilities.
    I did not use a USB bootable install drive because I was under the impression I did not need one if I was doing a clean install. Is that my problem?  Sorry if this is a dumb question but I am not very good with computers!

  • Apple mail sender sort reverts to end of alphabet

    I was in a string where the issue of Yosemite's Apple Mail sorting on sender (or subject) resulted in a sort that reverts to the end of the alphabet, rather than retaining the selected name or subject.  This requires scrolling back through the entire list (now inconveniently sorted) to find the original highlighted sender or subject.  Before Yosemite the selected sender or subject would be retained, so that I could deal as I wished with the sorted group.  This is a huge time waste and Yosemite is a major down-grade IMHO for this feature which I formerly used frequently to organize a string of senders or subjects.  APPLE WHAT GIVES?  As well, I would have preferred to add my voice to the already-existing string on this topic, but of course when I signed in I was given a fresh page to start with.  Kinda like getting sorted to the end of the alphabet.  Convenient way for Apple not to hear a concerted chorus of voices on a particular topic.  DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ANYMORE HOW PEOPLE USE COMPUTERS??

    Greetings: Similar problem here after moving to 10.5 on a G4 MMD. MAIL.app has been working fine for a year - and still is on my MacBook with 10.4 and iPhone - but 10.5 mail is ignoring my attempts to get send using ssl with exact same settings. The new "connection Doctor" is a nice touch, but it still does not clear. Incoming mail OK, and my Eudora path to same smtp servers using SSL is also running fine under 10.5, so I assume it is a MAIL app issue.
    I need to go the ssl route to get through my cable broadband provider's servers into my web-hosting site servers for send. Send to provider's servers sans SSL, and getting out through mac.com mail is also fine.

  • MacbookPro Retina 2013 spinning ball halfway thru boot after 10.10.1 update

    Macbook Pro Retina 2013 with FileVault2 encryption for the SSD. Was running 10.10 OK, and applied the 10.10.1 update yesterday. The update hung without completing, so I powered off the machine and tried to reboot.
    Booting starts normally -- I enter a username and password to unlock the disk, and then the kernel starts booting. When the boot indicator is about 1/2 across the screen, the cursor is a spinning ball and can be moved via the trackpad. I've let it set at the beach ball for 10+ minutes without progress.
    I have tried each of these steps without any improvement:
    Cleared the NVRAM
    Reset the SMC
    Booted into Recovery and used Disk Utility to repair permissions and repair the disk
    Booted into safe mode -- long time required to boot, and then can't enter anything at the login screen
    Booted verbose mode -- Window Server has the screen so the system messages are not visible when the hang occurs
    Reinstalled Yosemite from the Recovery boot
    Booted in single-user mode, manually done "fsck -fy" and "mount" to verify the system can use the SSD volume
    I have a TimeMachine backup from a few days ago, so I could try wiping the disk and reinstalling but would like to av

    I had the time to re-enable FileVault2 on the boot volume today after the previous complete wipe and reinstall, and upon reboot, the system again hung at the same point. I've since manually booted from a USB volume where I also had Yosemite installed, and after waiting for the volume to complete encryption, turned off encryption and successfully booted the now-unencrypted volume.
    This seems to be a common issue with Yosemite -- now that I know what to look for, the problem is documented at http://www.macissues.com/2014/10/27/filevault-bug-makes-yosemite-pause-or-hang-a t-login/, among other places.

  • Where is my iphoto after upgrading to yosemite??

    Where is my IPHOTO after upgrading to yosemite ??

    Ok so here's what you gonna do. (had this problem myself today, and after some fiddling figured out what to do.)
    Find your old iPhoto with a cross through it, right-click it and select 'show package contents'. A folder will open. In that folder go to Contents>MacOS and there will be three little things there. Click on the one called 'iPhoto' and terminal will open. Leave terminal open and wait four seconds and VOILA! iPhoto opens. Leave terminal open until you are finished with iPhoto, because if you close terminal, iPhoto will close with it. THX! ENJOY! Hope it works.
    P.S.
    You can close terminal once you close iPhoto. I also suggest backing up your iPhoto library while you can.

  • Is there a way to annotate a PDF by adding a text box any where on the screen rather than having to click on the text box Icon each time? It was like this before I downloaded Yosemite.

    I use the Preview app to annotate my notes for class. It use to be where I could add text where ever I wanted on the screen just by double clicking. Now since I downloaded Yosemite I have to click on the text box icon at the top each time and it adds the text box in the middle and I have to move it to where I want it. This is very inconvenient for class. Any suggestions on how to get the old preview back or fix this problem?

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    I have Elements 13 (I have the hard copy) installed on my iMac using Yosemite. I do all my iPhoto work on an external drive where I have copied my iPhoto Library, can I also install Elements 13 on my external harddrive or drag Elements 13 over from my iMac so that I can do work with Elements 13 via the exteranl hard drive? Thanks tb

    Yes you can store images on an external hard dive and have them referenced in Organizer. It’s best to export copies to separate folders/subfolders and that will ensure iPhoto does not get corrupted.
    Alternatively you could continue to use iPhoto with the Elements Editor set up in the iPhoto prefs as your external editing app. Then there is no need to use Organizer and no need to duplicate your images.
    You can then call up photos directly from iPhoto as normal with the additional option e.g.
    Double-click on a thumbnail to edit in iPhoto editor.
    Control (right) - click on a thumbnail to edit in the elements app.

  • I downloaded Yosemite OS X and when I try to select my HD (the disk) where I want to install it, the hard drive doesn't have enough space. What can I do and still have all my files? I haven't backed up...

    I downloaded Yosemite OS X and when I try to select my HD (the disk) where I want to install it, the hard drive doesn't have enough space. I have a MacBook Pro bought in 2008. What can I do and still have all my files? I haven't backed up...

    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.
    I recommend that you also make a backup before proceeding. Just quit the installer.

  • In Yosemite Mail, there is an issue where the signatures no longer toggle as in the past. If you change the existing signature, it just adds the new one vs replacing it within the body of the message. Thoughts?

    In Yosemite Mail, there is an issue where the signatures no longer toggle as in the past. If you change the existing signature, it just adds the new one vs replacing it within the body of the message. Thoughts?

    Hi howe.sc,
    When I checked for how signatures in Yosemite work, I found this.
    Mail (Yosemite): Include signatures in messages
    Delete a signature from a message: Select the signature, then press the Delete key.
    Replace a signature in a message: Delete the existing signature, then add a different signature.
    That sounds similar to what you are describing.
    Take care,

  • I have Mac os10 yosemite and with photoshop elements 13 I cannot get a menu from Print to change the type of paper.  Where is that menu  The one that comes up only alows for paper size not type

    After clicking print the menu that comes up does not allow for a change in paper type.  Where can I change the paper type. OS 10.10 Yosemite with Photoshop Elements 13.  I have a windows computer with the same program and the print menu has a paper settings option but not on the the mac.  What gives.  Is the Elements 13 not compatible with the OS 10 Yosemite?  Thanks for any help

    If you delete all the Adobe Reader stuff it will probably fix this. For almost everything, the Apple pdf handling works better.

  • I experienced the same prob with Yosemite where my screen went black on startup. I was able to "fix" it and log into my qccount but my mac is running super slow now even just at simple clicks and commands. How can I fix this? Help please!

    I updated to Yosemite and everything worked great for a few days until earlier. My mac was plugged to my TV via HDMI wen everything hanged. I did a hard reset and the screen was just black during startup. There were the startup sounds but no images from the screen. it did have images at one point where it gave me options to reset my password. I did a couple of hard reboots and pressed Alt/Option or Cmd+Option+P+R based on previous posts. Didnt know which w but I was able to access my account and log in. My big problem right now is that my Mac became super slow. Even at the simple commands/clicks

    My mac was okay up until a few hours ago. If anyone knows how to fix this, would really appreciate your help. Thank you!
