Spell Checking Other Than MS Office?

Nov 12, 2008

I heard Mac has perfected this misterious way of checking spelling and grammar in any window that has text. Can the all mighty Vista do that? I have Vista Ultimate x64, about as expensive as it gets, yet I seem to need to buy separate programs to check my spelling in say yahoo messenger or Firefox or whatnot. Is there any free way to spellcheck anywhere other than MS Office?

This Language Is No Longer Available For Spell Checking

Oct 26, 2009

I tried what Frustrated Gloucester advised but when I clicked on Tools (outside the e-mail window) the only "options" listed is INTERNET OPTIONS no down arrows that I saw at the bottom. When I clicked internet options is shows the usual tabs...General, Security, Privacy, Content etc. etc. On the General Tab there is a Language button below "appearences" but ENGLISH is already listed. Even deleating English and re-entering english as the language does not even highlight the apply button and does not fix the problem. No wonder people roll their eyes when I tell them I use Vista Home Premium.

Checking Newsgroups

Oct 1, 2009

(Running Vista Ultimate 64-bit, SP-2, IE-7, WM-6, classic mode, dial-up.)

BACKGROUND: Lately I've noticed that when I check my email Windows Mail seems to be stopped/stuck while checking a newsgroup for new messages. I've discovered that it may be in that mode (checking a particular newsgroup) for over an hour. I solve the problem at the time by clicking stop, and then it checks for messages and I find a number ofmessages sent over the previous hour or more.

I know of the setting to determine how often to check my server for email. Is there another setting somewhere that determines how often the newsgroups are checked? I'd be
happy to have the newsgroups checked only when I open a newsgroup, but I don't know how to do that.

My Office 2003 Disappeared After Installing Office 2007

May 15, 2010

Originally, I had Office 2003 installed in my computer, & a trial version of 2007 that had already expired.

Today I installed a full version of Microsoft Office 2007, without removing any of the other two versions from my computer. I realized that it seemed to automatically remove the older version. I`m not bother about it not being there, as I got the new version, but I wonder if this is an automatic uninstalling that Office does, or if the version is still there but I can`t see it, as I would like to remove it properly if it`s still somewhere in my computer.

I checked in Control Panel & the only thing I can see is "Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007", the full version I just installed, & everything that come with it. No 2003 anywhere.

Supporting OCSP Checking On Various Platforms

Jun 18, 2009

Is anywhere a list of all applications supporting OCSP checking on various platforms such as Vista/2008/7/R2 etc.? Is this a generic feature revocation checking on the systems which is by default used for all revocation checking or is that dependent on each application asking for this type of check?

Message The Screen Says Upgrade Checking Has Been Disabled

May 9, 2008

A month back I bought a Dell Latitude D630 with XP Pro installed. After seeing that Vista SP1 solved a bunch of problems with Vista I decided I want to go with Vista on my laptop. I bought the full version of Vista Business from the Windows Marketplace. Microsoft says (unless I misunderstood) that there is a valid upgrade path from XP Pro SP2 to Vista Business. I am starting the install from the disk and from within Windows. The Upgrade Advisor says I am ready to go. But...When I enter my key and move forward upgrading is grayed out and is unavailable. There is a message on the screen that says upgrade checking has been disabled.

Windows Update Error 8024402C While Checking For Updates

Nov 3, 2008

The last two weeks have been the worst in my life: I just got a new DELL XPS M1530 with VISTA HOME PREMIUM. How I wish I had not...The following is a copy of the logbook of my problems. Some of you may find my workarounds useful. I got most of the tips from random googling. As it took a while to fix each problem, I thought I should summarize some of the tricks, for reference.The following outlines all the steps I followed since getting the new machine two weeks ago......

Fix the following problem.

Windows Update error 8024402C

If you receive Windows Update error 8024402C while checking for updates, you might need to do one of the following: If the computer is connected to a network at work, contact a network administrator. You probably receive updates using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), a service that enables network administrators to deploy and manage updates for all computers on a network. For more information about WSUS, go to the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) website.If your computer is usually connected to a network at work (for example, if you use a mobile PC but you are currently using it at home or at another location), you probably receive updates using WSUS and can not receive updates by connecting directly to the Internet or to another network, such as a home network. To solve the problem, connect to the network at work and try checking for updates again, or contact a network administrator.If the computer is connected directly to the Internet or to a home network (and never connected to a network at work), you might need to set Internet Explorer to automatically detect local area network (LAN) settings so Windows Update can go online to obtain updates. To do this, follow the steps below.....

Spell Check

Apr 23, 2008

When using the Spell Check, I inadvertantly clicked on the "Add" button, which put a word I misspelled into my Spell Check list. I would like to remove this unwanted word, but I cannot figure out to get rid of it, since there isn't a "Remove" button in the Spell Check window. Does anyone know if this word can be taken out of Spell Check?

Spell Check English

Mar 25, 2008

Why does this not say American and why is English not available. 70% of words Highlighted have the correct spelling and mail simply wants to use the American corruptions. In virtually every other Microsoft product we have both English (American) and English (True or UK as normally quoted). Why not in this product after all Americans only make up some 4 or 5% of the world population?

Won't Spell Check In Word

Feb 16, 2010

My vista laptop won't spell check in Word. I have tried a number of things to try and solve this problem but none seem to work. I have gone to WORD OPTIONS; PROOFING and checked all the appropriate boxes and it still won't check my spellings. It works for the grammar but doesn't even pick up made up words that I try to test it with! I have checked my dictionary and ran the Microsoft Office Diagnostics. I have watched the tutorials and read one other post with the same problem but there was no solution for it.
