OS X: Edit Your Custom Dictionary File

Be sure to follow the instructions about copying the dictionary file you are going to edit just incase you need to restore it … look for the words coo@ & spple in the list & remove them.

Let us know how you get on with this ...

Thanks, Thats the solution i need. However there is no choice for Library in the GO drop down menu. I tried searching for the folders & Files library, spelling, local dictionary but can't find them. Any suggestions?

 

[Spawn_Dooley]

did you hold down the OPT key?

If you hold down the Option key with that “Go” menu open, “Library” will appear.

I went through all the way to the local dictionary but there is no text in it. Its EMPTY

Hello and welcome.

If this issue is only happening in Safari, it may be the AutoFill entries there. You could try:

Safari > Preferences > AutoFill > Other forms > Edit... and clear the bad entries there.

Let us know if that corrects the issue.

Hi,
No its not only in Safari. I checked the safari Auto fill edit directory but the incorrect auto fills are not in it.

Is it other browsers as well, a specific browser, and/or all applications?

[Abizer]

All browsers & all applications where there is auto correct.

OK...

-Do you have any auto-correct software installed such as Typinator, Text Expander, aTest, TypeIt4Me, etc.?
-Have you disabled System Preferences... > Keyboard > Text > Correct spelling automatically and removed any replacements?
-Have you checked your Contacts cards to see if they have incorrect email addresses?

[Abizer]

No softwares installed. Did the Systems but there its all correct ones. Checked email addresses too. Nothing there so still the problem is there.

 

[Cory Cooper]

Hmmm...I will have to do some more research into this. Strange.
