Why isn't my check spelling work?

Hi guys,.

Since the last update of Mozilla version 23.0 my spelling check is no longer in effect. I seem to be miss-written every word, because each of them are noteworthy.

How can I solve this problem? I don't want to change to another browser of crap just because I can't use an add-on check spelling...

As a side note, all that worked on version 22, and I don't understand why it isn't now. I just want to see this problem, please help? Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem and solved it by uninstalling Firefox 23 and all its data and downgrade to Firefox 22. Now the spell checking works properly!
If a developer is reading this, please see the question. My computer has 64-bit Windows 8.

NOTE
Apparently, this problem was caused by a Firefox bug which has been fixed in Firefox 23.1 the nature of the problem is such that no English installs was more likely to be affected.
My post under gives more information.

Users should not have this problem now, or if you do, then it is likely to be another cause. So please start a new question of your own using the link standard/issues/new/firefox

  • Why isn't "save under" to work in Word for Mac?

  • Why isn't this declare variable work?

    I'm trying but the construction of a host (read from $dest) in a variable called $desthostbuild.

    It displays on the screen correctly returning this

    Build: 143128

    but $desthostbuild remains empty.

    I'm hoping to use it as part of a script that will move a virtual machine to a host, and then upgrade the tools if the build number of the host is higher than the version number of the tools in the comments.

    What I am doing wrong?

    Function Get-HostBuild {}

    Get-vmhost $dest | % {$server = $_______ | get - view; $server.} Config.Product | Select Build}

    }

    $desthostbuild = (get-HostBuild | fl *)

    I think it will be easier if you create a similar function to get the version of the tools for a guest.

    Since both functions return a string you can as well use the operator - eq

    Something like this for example

    function Get-HostBuild {
         param ([string]$hostname)
         (Get-VMHost $hostname | Get-View).Config.Product.Build
    }
    
    function Get-ToolsVersion {
         param ([string]$vmname)
         (get-vm $vmname | get-view).config.tools.toolsVersion
    }
    
    $dest = 
    $a = get-hostbuild $dest
    $vm = 
    $b = get-toolsversion $vm
    if ($a -eq $b) {Write-Host "Tools version OK"}
    else {Write-Host "Tools need upgrade"}
    
  • Why can't check spelling be disabled in the mail?

    While in El Capitan mail preferences give me the option of drafting emails without spell check - that is to say I write "never" when asked if I want to "check spelling? -the mail application is always check my spelling, often by mistake and miscorrects words I don't want miscorrected. Latest example: he has changed "on the spot" in a message to "obscene" with hilarious results. How can I stop usual annoying intuitive mail to change what I write?

    First of all, go to Edit-> spelling and grammar by writing an email or a sponsor and check that "automatically correct spelling ' is disabled." " If this is not the case, do, because this is the reason why Mail is trying to verify the spelling even if you do not want.

  • Why my spell checker not working for my emails in Outlook Express 6

    For some reason, the spell checker option is not being highlighted in the toolbar, and so I can't spell check my email.  Is there a way to fix this?

    OE 6 doesn't come with it's own spellcheck. You need to Word or MS Office program, before 2007. The spell checker in Works 4 to 6 will work with OE, but not other editions. If you do not have such a program, you can download a free spell check to one of these sites.

  • I can't check spelling at work

    When I select the command > check spelling everything he does switch to split view. No spell check dialogue - nothing. I tried to reset my workspace.

    If you can, switch to Design view.  See screenshot.

    If you cannot use Design view, here is a temporary workaround until the DW team releases a fix.  Open your fluid Grid CSS file and add an X as shown below.  This trick DW into thinking it's a normal page layout, you can use the creation and spell checking mode.

  • I unchecked "Check spelling as you type", but Firefox always stresses words cut-and-paste the text in some web applications. How can I stop doing that?

    I use an online web mapping application that has an entry of descriptive text boxes and stuff like that. Sometimes I copy blocks of text from a word-processing application in these input boxes because I can format the text in the wp. When I paste text blocks, Firefox don't the red wavy underline on the words he doesn't know. I already disabled "check spelling as you type" but it does make a difference. I don't want no Firefox to check the spelling on these blocks of text that I copy and paste. Sometimes I need to capture images of these blocks of text display in the mapping application and I want that they own. Thank you.

    Hi, cor - el, this isn't have a tick in the context menu. but I think I was just stupid on the problem because I restarted my browser and now the underline is not past. Thanks for the reply.

  • check spelling

    In Yosemite, spell check is too conservative, even with this option disabled in system preferences > keyboard > text

    When in TextEdit, both automatically check spelling and abbriviations, (owa = I'll be there!) or anyting has added to this list, does not always pupulate/correct...

    When the control is automatically disabled, it always overwrites your own words...

    For example: Nightcore - (enter stuff here) - Single

    becomes nightmare not after the first word entered u, but after u closed support...

    Is this normal? Also abbrivations don't always work...

    Tested in other account and the same thing... However it looks like this corrects only at the start of new document, does not the previous edition...

  • Netflix in Media Center returns a 'there was a problem of data recovery. "Check the works of your internet connection and try again" error instead of loading Netflix data.

    context: a previous thread with an identical title never responded, the problem just disappeared.  Well its been two weeks since then and the problem came back.

    somethings which may or may not apply: internet TV seems to work better in media center.  All updates have been applied to H.P. of Vista SP2. Netflix works fine in ie8 (such as the internet, of course). Tried to delete all the Internet Options, delete browsing history section of Internet Explorer. I get the same error message with my windows 7 professional media center, but netflix seems to play anyway (no game with vista). I recently installed quicktime alternative 2.72 to see what it was and how it worked, then removed and put back in quicktime.

    Tried / symptoms:

    -Remove all the browsing history (econcepts)
    -Same message on Win7pro but works even when (econcepts)
    -Works on Win7 no problem (omegafiler)
    -Works in ie 8 (econcepts)
    -Works in crome (Martin TX)
    -Consensus is that it started around December 30, 2009 (GeoffG1, johnetX, me)
    -Remove and reinstall silverlight (omegafiler)
    -Remove and replace netflix plugin (omegafiler)<- how="" did="" you="" do="" that="">
    -Netflix says: microsoft problem (Nitestalker)
    -Microsoft is silent (this thread - on vacation?)
    -Same problem on 32-bit and 64-bit VMC (JRSMiamiFL)
    -No applied update (johnetx)<- perhaps="" date="" related="" or="" drm="" date="">
    -Disconnect from netflix, you reconnect again - ultimately the same error (chicagokiwi)
    -Tried to reduce the number of items in the queues to well below the limit of 200 (econcepts)
    -Tried the register / unregister the third wire procedure, no joy (does not break anything else however)
    -Disabled the firewall, no change (econcepts)

    Someone else knows Netflix not being is not able to connect?  It started yesterday (30/12/2009) for me.  I looked fine the day before without problem.  The message I get says "there was a problem of data recovery.  Check the works of your internet connection and try again. Ok.  I make it work with both my VMC - one with the service pack and the other without.  My OS updates have been loaded in early December, so I don't see how this could it be.  I searched and found this problem has come up before, but I have not found a solution.  I made NO changes to my HTPC.

    Those who have and solved this problem.

    UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE *.

    2009-01-05 has attempted to start Netflix this morning and you know, it works on both my VMCs.  That's the good news.  So now the real questions are:

    Only 20 people reported it as a problem and only 6 on the green button.  I believe that it affected all the world with Media Center.  So why not discussed much?

    It already happened, causes a stir and silently slips without known cause or cure.  How can we find out what caused this and how to prevent it from happening again in the future?

  • Spell check not working not not on Id CS3

    I got a new mac mini. OS 10.10.4, 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MGz DDRc.

    I moved my copy under license of CS3 Id from my old computer, MacBook, circa 2007.

    It works great except for one thing. It won't check spelling.

    Anyone know what could happen and what can I do about it?

    Mario Milosevic

    You have two possible problems. First, CS3 is not tested and supported on Yosemite, then you are on your own and lucky so he could install at all. Second, you say "moved." If that means anything but installed fresh from the diskette or download it again, you are likely to have problems. InDesign does not migrate.

    I think that if all that does not work is spelling, you might want to consider yourself lucky enough.
