Dictionary Feature Does Not Work?

Apr 22, 2012

However, the user guide states that to see a definition, just tap the word. I had tapped, double tapped, tapped and held, etc, but no definition pops up in any word I have tried. This is the same in email, reading a Kindle book, reading an iBook book.

Does 's Ebook Include A Dictionary - Reader Dictionary Feature

Apr 5, 2010

I want to know if the book reader feature in iPad has a dictionary. In other words, can I underline a word in a book and have it bring up its definition. If yes, can you provide a link to an official description that describes this feature? Also, if yes, is it included or an app?I've been doing a lot of browsing and have only found one iffy claim that it has a dict. The absence of touting this feature makes me wonder.Ideally I'd like to hear from someone that has used both a Kindle and the iPad's reader dictionary feature.

Won't Work With Mobile Me / Can't Work With Google Shut Down Feature

May 25, 2010

I was a mac.com user for several years and I dropped the service when it became mobile me. I did not drop it due to the change, but because I was not using it any longer for anything beyond email (it was coincidence that the service changed names). Since that change to mobile me, has there been any major changes that I would want to take advantage of? I have been using google for a few years now (free is nice too) but I like that find iPad/shut down feature if it is lost.

Auto Correct Option Still Work On American Dictionary?

May 25, 2010

I've had my iPad for about 3 weeks now and there's one little annoyance I have with it. I have my keyboard/language/etc set to English United Kingdom, but the autocorrect will still insist on the American spelling (for example "Realize") then it'll underline it as a spelling error without a correction suggestion

It also likes to autocorrect "ive" to "vie" and not "I've" but that's down to me being lazy! Any other Brits noticed weird goings on with the autocorrect on the iPad, or have I missed a setting somewhere?

New Feature - ITunes Have Automatic Video Conversion Feature

Jun 2, 2010

It would be great if Apple would add this feature in iTunes, especially for the iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch users.When iTunes syncs, it should automatically convert any video file that is part of the pictures folders to be synched. This way it would make it easier for the users of the 'i' devices to fully appreciate his/her pictures/videos library without having to deal with manual conversions, such as the steps that users have to go thru here

Design Feature That Perplexes - Feature Of The System

Jun 15, 2010

There's one feature of the iPad 3G that really surprises me. Bear in mind that we're talking about Apple here, the company that produces two versions of the iPhone headphone socket assembly, a black one and a white one so that when you look into the socket it is colour-coordinated with the casing.So, with the above context, I am really surprised that the antenna cover at the back of the 3G unit is in black plastic (I assume it's plastic). In the volumes that Apple make things in I am sure that at zero or negligible cost they could have specified the plastic for that particular moulding in absolutely any colour they wanted so they could have chosen something that blended in much better with the aluminium back.It actually really bugs me because there is a beautiful purity in the WiFi model of the black screen within the aluminium case and the use of the black antenna cover seems to really mix together the front and back visual elements in a very haphazard way that breaks the purity of the design.

Dictionary Available In Certain Applications?

Apr 7, 2010

I've noticed when typing an email when a word is underlined in red you can tap on it and then a "replace" button appears that offers the
correct spelling. However when reading email only the option to copy appears. Yet in Pages and iBooks you can tap a word and get the
dictionary. Is Dictonary only available in certain apps at certain times?

How To Add Word In Its Dictionary

Oct 5, 2011

My IPad 2 keeps autocorrecting the spelling of my name incorrectly and a few times I have missed it and created all sorts of confusion (what it is being changed to is nowhere near my real name). Does any know how I can either add my correct name spelling to the dictionary so I doesn't try to auto correct, or to address this another way as it's really frustrating.

Removing A Word From Dictionary

May 11, 2011

When I try to type my name in most documents, it is auto corrected to "Mike Ethan" this is not close to my name and it is annoying to have to remove the autocorrection.. I found the instructions for removing a word from the dictionary but the instructions are incorrect as there is no field in the general page of Setting/keyboard corresponding to "modify dictionary".
