Why is my autocorrect list blank?

Hello. In System Preferences > Keyboard > Text is the option for autocorrection of typos. There is a list of Replace/With. My list is blank. It has been like that since I installed Mavericks. Is this normal?

Hey stroika,
Thanks for the question. This is normal behavior. This list is available so you can set custom replacements:
The Replace list shows words or phrases you want to have replaced when you type them, and the With list shows the words or phrases that will be used as the replacements. To change a word or phrase, click it in a list, then type a new word or phrase.

  • Why is my privacy preference blank in Safari 5.1

    Why is my privacy preference blank in Safari 5.1. There is no way to manage cookies. It appears on my iMac but not my Macbook. Any imput on the issue appreciated.

    Safari preferences in Version 5.1 (6534.50) with respect to cookies have changed with this latest update. In July, the last time I reviewed cookies saved in Safari, I was able to delete cookies individually. This no longer appears to be possible in the latest update.
    In the Preferences > Privacy pane, there is a button "Remove All Website Data" which applies to "Cookies and other website data." I don't want to use this. I want to retain some cookies but not others. Under the "Remove all" button is another one, "Details" that applies to "[This many] websites stored cookies or other data." Clicking "Details" reveals a pane that shows all the website domains that stored data in Safari. Unlike the previous version of Safari, however, the pane does not show individual cookies set by the domains. It is possible only to review all the cookies set by a domain or none of them. This is a disadvantage. I very much prefer the previous version.
    Another change, I think (not sure), is that in the latest Safari, private browsing no longer appears to block new cookies. In the Safari help file, the Browsing privately page shows the following statement:
    "When Private Browsing is on, webpages are not added to the history list, the names of downloads are removed from the Downloads window after downloading is complete, AutoFill information isn’t saved, and searches are not added to the pop-up menu in the search field. Websites that store databases on your computer can’t modify the databases, so services normally available at such sites may work differently until you turn off Private Browsing. Any changes made to cookies are discarded when you turn off Private Browsing."
    The last sentences, in fact, imply, by omission, that new cookies may be added to Safari, even though private browsing is turned on.
    For these reason, I have abandoned Safari, and I will now use Firefox, which continues to allow reviewing and editing of the complete cookie list. If Apple reconsiders and makes it possible again to review all cookies individually, I will return to using Safari
    If someone know of a way to review cookies individually in the current version of Safari, please let me know. Or if I am incorrect about what the latest version of Safari permits with respect to cookies, kindly correct me.

    Also please include your model, year, which OSX you are using, this will help anyone reading this to offer advice.

    A couple of shots in the dark here.
    Try this, start in safe mode and see if it will go. Power it off, power it on holding the shift key, continue to hold the key till you see a progress BAR, then release and see if it will finish booting. If it does login see if thigs work, then log out and try booting normally. (NOTE that this takes considerably longer,be patient)
    Another thing you can try is powering it up holding the OPTION key and see if the start up manager brings your HD up on the screen, if it does click on that and see.

  • Why is my itunes a blank screen?

    Why is my itunes a blank screen when i press the itunes app

    Hi Mikhailwong,
    When troubleshooting iTunes Store connection issues, the following articles provide the best information:
    First, try signing out of your account in Settings > iTunes & App Store. Once signed out, go ahead and sign back in.
    iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
    If the above did not resolve your issue, refer to the following:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    - Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking on Check for Update in your device's Summary page in iTunes.
    - Check and verify that you are in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you are on a 3G capable device, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    - Check to make sure you have an active internet connection. You can check the User Guide for your device for help with connecting to the internet.
    - Check to make sure other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the internet.
    - Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router
    - If the issue still persists see, iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connectionsor iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Thanks,

  • Why iWork apps are listed as gratis in the topcharts, but show a price?

    Why iWork apps are listed as gratis in the topcharts, but show a price?

  • Why is the music list for my ipod classic grayed out in itunes?

    why is the music list for my ipod classic grayed out in itunes?

    I have a similar problem.  Originally, my iTunes advanced setting was set such that a shortcut to the song was copied into my music library so sometimes copying songs to my iPod resulted in them being grayed out.  I changed that setting some time ago and haven't had the problem until recently.
    I don't know what to do.  here's the situation:
         1.  I have a song that is stored on my file system within My Documents. (it was purchased via Amazon)
         2.  Through iTunes I choose the File | Import file to library (or some text like that)
         3.  I navigate to the location of the song
         4.  I import it.
         5.  I can play the tune from the music library or from an internal PC playlist.
         6.  I then attempt to copy the song to my iPod.  When I do, it appears in the iPod's playlist grayed out.
    I have done those steps countless times for dozens of songs without a problem.  Even others that I've purchased through Amazon.  What is so different this time?  I should mention that this problem NEVER happens if I buy the song through the iTunes store.  Only if I buy it from another source (e.g. Amazon).  WHY ???

  • How can I save the autocorrect list I created ?

    Hi everyone !
    I've searched for an answer to that question through the web without finding one.
    I'm about to reinstall Mac OS X Mountain Lion, but I want to be able to recover the - very large - autocorrect list I've created over the past few months. I can't find it in the Library, but I'm probably not searching at the right spot ... Do you have any idea where it might be ? Or maybe you just can't save that kind of thing ... 
    Thanks for your help !

    The autocorrection is in the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist in users/your name/Library/Preferences/
    To find the Library you have to in the Finder press the option key when you click on Go, then you'll get the option to click on the Library

  • Why Albania isn't listed on the iTunes online store?

    I have been using mac products for many years and recently I moved from Greece to Albania for work purposes.
    When I heard that Albania isn't listed in the iTunes store i couldn't believe it until i saw it my self. Why isn't it listed.. big telecomunication companies like AMC (Cosmote) and Vodafone are selling apple products (iPhones, iPads, iPods etc.) and apple hast even listed Albania in.. isn't this insane.. how are people even suppose to buy songs, apps or anything???
    It is a huge problem guys.. please give me an answer if there is a way for me to purchase songs or apps withought being listed in itunes and still use iTunes to download them I would be more than grateful!!!!!

    There is another authorised Apple store in Albania at "Casa Italia" Building, close to the main roundabout in Tirana.
    It is very stressful not being listed as a country, when  authorized shops exists. This lets me think that Apple is aware that their product are being sold in Abania and that people are buing them, but still isn't taking steps to change this. I mean, even such discussion is taking place in their Apple Support Communities web page (in english) ... c'mon, someone should do something about it and i trully don't think it takes that long to make the change.
    I believe people feel discriminated by this, although I do belive that this isn't Apple's intention. Choosing another country doesn't feel right.
    Anyway, hoping for better days!!!

  • Texting on iPhone 5.  When texting to multiple people why does the contact list return to the "A"s after you select a contact and try to add the next one in order?

    Texting on iPhone 5.  When texting to multiple people why does the contact list return to the "A"s after you select a contact and try to add the next one in order?  This really slows you down when trying to contact 50 people with information.  iPhone 4 worked just fine.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    None of my pictures that I uploaded into iPhoto are in my Finder under Pictures.  Should I copy and paste my folders from iPhoto into here, in case something happens to my iPhoto program (in addition to backing them up onto an external hard drive like I already do)?
    No, that's just wasting space.  A back up needs to be on a different disk.
    Your photos are within the iPhoto Library.

  • Why does Dreamweaver upload a blank page when i "put" a .php or .html file that I just edited. It's

    Why does Dreamweaver upload a blank page when i "put" a .php or .html file that I just edited. It's like Dreamweaver isn't putting the complete file. So when i check my work (refresh the page), it is now blank. This happens about 50 percent of the time and can occur with any of the websites I maintain. (If I pull out my macbookpro, i can edit and upload the page, but the screen is smaller and i would rather be at my desktop). I am using CS5 on a MacPro, operating system 10.7.5.

    I've never heard of that type of error before. If it were happening to me, here are a few things I would do...
    Verify it's DW
         Download Filezilla (free and very nice in reality) and make sure it uploads correctly from there to rule out connection issues
    Rebuild Site Cache
         From the Files window of your site, click the menu and go to Site > Recreate Site Cache
    Delete DW File Cache
         If the above does nothing, I'd kill my DW Cache File: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
    Uninstall, clean, reinstall
         Uninstall the program, use the cleaner tool here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html to kill everything (Adobe leaves behind things that are picked up again in a normal uninstall/reinstall) then reinstall it.

  • HT204319 Why don't we list model number with this information rather than the month the model was released? e.g. MacBook 2,1 or 5,2 or whatever.

    Why don't we list model number with this information rather than the month the model was released?
    e.g. MacBook 2,1 or 5,2 or whatever.

    Generally, Apple refers to it's systems by what part of the year they are released, ie early - mid - late.  Some people do provide the model number when they post questions, however, generally, the time of year and year released equals the model number.
