Spell Check

14. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail · Tags: , , , , , ,

The spell checker doesn't work, either by clicking on the spell check or pressing F7?!

 

All I get when I click spell check or press F7 is the following words come up just above the spell check 'The spell checker found some words for you to look at. If you write more, check again' the words 'check again' are in blue. When I click on the words in blue nothing happens. When I right click over words in the email underlined in red meaning an incorrect spelling there is no dictionary or suggestions to use or add to dictionary. All this makes me thing there is no dictionary or spell checker installed?!

I am using IE9.

Thank you

I am pretty sure this email is phishing looking to get my password but wanted to double check.

Missing Auto Correct Function in Outlook spell check

08. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , ,
Why did MS get rid of the autocorrect button in the spelling checker for Outlook? 

It is a fundamental part of my efficiency since I am a poor typist and I make many consistent errors. In Entourage the process is much speedier as I can type much faster when the autocorrect function is working. In Outlook, I have to pause, call up the spell check, then can only correct the word at that moment. I assume there is no autocorrect learning going on in the background. 

Am I missing something, or is it really the case that MS has removed the autocorrect function? Or is the last line in the SpellCheck window list  (Correct Spelling Automatically) meant to do this? If so, it is not working in my case. Is there a way to make it work?

Auto spell check for outgoing messages

04. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

I've just installed Windows Live Mail.  I can't figure out how to set it so there is an automatic spell check before messages are sent.  I used to have Outlook Express and set it to automatically spell check my messages before they went.  I keep forgetting to spell check and would like to find some auto feature.

Thank you.
