Yahoo Email Spell Check Highlights But Doesn

The spell check on yahoo mail has stopped working?

Recently when I ask Yahoo to check an outoing e-mail by the facility on the toolbar it highlights the wrong spelling in red as it used to but it no longer prompts the correct spellign when you right click.

I have also noticed that the performance of bold, underline, italic and list is working erractically.

How Do You Do a Spell Check on WordPad?

You cannot do spell check on Wordpad. It is just for editing purposes. But I have a suggestion. If you are going to use WordPad. Type your document in Wordpad and when you are finished highlight the entire document then copy and paste it into Microsoft Word and do the spell check there. But this is double the work. Why not just type it in Microsoft Word.

WordPad is a basic word processor that is included in Windows. A word processor is a computer program that you can use to create, edit, view, and print text documents. With WordPad, you can type letters, book reports, and other simple documents. You can also change how the text looks, quickly move sentences and paragraphs around, and copy and paste text within and between documents.

There are four main parts of the WordPad window: (1) The toolbar. The toolbar contains buttons for basic commands, including saving and printing. . (2) The format bar. The format bar contains buttons that you can use to format the text in your document. For example, you can choose the font, color, and alignment of your text. (3) The ruler. Use the ruler to check the layout and placement of text in your document. (4)The document area. This is where you type your document, make changes to the text, and apply your formatting.

What is the best free spell, style and grammar checker for English?

Alas, the free ones are nice but not good. Ginger is perky, but middle of the road in catching grammar mistakes (I include contextual misspellings, because spelling checkers do not catch them; there are uncountable numbers of them). Ginger does not catch style mistakes like wordy phrases, redundancy, clichés, platitudes, jargon, informality, overworked and trite expressions, affected language, pompous phrases, empty intensifiers, awkward usage, slang, nonstandard and nonidiomatic diction, rash overstatements, tautologies, vague terms, outmoded diction, and potentially offensive language.Autocrit catches about as many grammar mistakes as Ginger does--about 12-14%--and about as many stylistic mistakes, as well. So depending on what you want, Autocrit can be up to twice as helpful as Ginger.Language Tool is free and catches up to 25% of the grammar mistakes in our limited tests (published at Grammar Checker Comparison Tests, but only a few style problems,Editminion is free, but its website is full of bad writing, so I wouldn't bother with it.Worth considering: Word and WordPerfect each catch around twice as many grammar mistakes as Ginger and Autocrit. Word also finds about as many style problems as Autocrit, but WordPerfect does not check style.The expensive checkers don't do much better than the free ones. Several, (plus Word and WordPerfect) catch 25%-30% of grammar mistakes; only two (none of the above) catch more than 20% of the style blunders.So the best, free or not, catch fewer than a third of common grammar mistakes and seldom more than a fifth of the style problems. Use them, by all means, but don't expect them to clean up your writing very well.

How do I stop Gmail from including yellow spell-check suggestions in sent mails? After closing down its in-built spell check in a draft, yellow highlights would not appear but they appear in the SENT e-mail.

Thanks for the A2A!I'm curious to what browser your using. I'm curious because Gmail does not include an automatic spell checker, just a manual one. Please see:Gmail: Using spell-checkOdds are, the spell checking is being done by your browser and can easily (usually) be disabled through the options menu in your browser.Is this happening in any other browser or just one specific one? Say, if you pulled up Gmail on your phone, is the same issue there?By all means, if you've clicked that X to close out spell check in Gmail, it should not be appearing which leads me to believe it's a browser issue.I hope this helps!

Spell check in another language?

Here's what you do.

Assuming you are a Windows person and use Microsoft Word, write your emails there. Click on Review and click Set Language. Choose Spanish as your dictionary.

Also, right click on the toolbar at the bottom of your screen. Highlight Toolbars, then click Language Bar. You will see EN at the bottom of your screen. Click the EN, then right click EN and click Settings. You can then add a Spanish keyboard, which is a lot easier than inserting special characters in MS Word.

You can use the Spanish keyboard with any program, not just Word, but using Word will let you spellcheck. After you are finished, cut and paste your corrected text from Word into your email.

Is there a glitch in the spell check function?

I type pretty fast so i'll sometimes use spell check to look over whether or not i've made any small typos and on a few occasions words that were perfectly fine were shown as incorrect and if i selected for them to be changed just to see what would happen it ruined my answer and fused two words into one which made no sense.

Has this happened to anyone else?

My Yahoo Email toolbar disappeared. How do I get it back?

My Yahoo Email toolbar disappeared. How do I get it back?
When I go to the Compose a Message to do an Email, I have noticed that my "email toolbar (i.e., Spell Check / Font face / Font Size / Bold / Italic / Underline / Text Color / Highlight Color / Insert emotion icon / etc.) These buttons (and the icons) have disappeared. The only way I can see them is if I run the cursor across the button face. How do I get the buttons to show up again?

To LoneStar:
I have tried that one and it may have worked in other situations but (unfortunately) not for me.
I fixed it by going to the toolbar menu and scrolled down to the "Options" button, then clicked the "Content Tab" and then do the appropriate action "block or allow" said issue. It worked. It had somehow considered the email toolbar buttons (I assume) to be like pop-ups and blocked the icons from showing up. Thank You all the same. At least I did try what you suggested.

How do you underline words in Yahoo Mail?

With the "new and improved" Yahoo mail, I cannot underline anything. That option has disappeared from the features shown on the bar. Why, and how do I underline anything?
