How to turn on auto capitalization on my mac?

In the Windows world there is a shareware tool called Capitalizer. It auto-capitalizes each sentence after you press Enter or period+space or other keys that you can define. Works along with all kinds of text editors or word processors.

They say there will be a version for Mac in the near future. May be it's worth checking or signing up to their notification list.

With the introduction of macOS Sierra, Apple has added a system-wide auto-capitalization selection to the System Preferences : Keyboard : Text panel. This is just a hint that applications that are written to detect will then use.

The WordService solution in the App Store has a solution as described above. However, in recent releases of OS X/macOS, it not only capitalizes the first word of the sentence — it aggressively capitalizes every noun in the sentence. I reported this to the vendor over a year ago, and it has gone unfixed.

Pages '09 v4.3 actually has a Fix capitalization feature in its Preferences that does not depend on the operating system at all.

I'm not sure that the spelling corrector does that on its own, but I did find this in Keyboard preferences:

I don't know. Are you using 10.9.5? Although I may have some third-party services installed such as WordService and PDF2RTFService.

When you downloaded the beta software you agreed to an NDA and were provided with a special forum for discussions and bug reporting. Please use that forum.

Posting here about beta software is both a violation of the NDA and the forum rules.

Or for letters like "i" to be an "I" go to spelling and grammar and select "Check Grammar with Spelling" option. when you mess up the mistake will show up green and allow for correction quicker.

On the left side of your keyboard click on Caps Lock and the green light should come on and let you know you are good to go.

CHEERS

DON

because Apple has most of its products, phones tablets and software that start with small letters despite being proper nouns, in Apple's world it's normal to use small letters for proper nouns and start sentences with small letters.

you will have to get used to the shift button and get a bit slow on your typing. after some time you'll get used to it.

this does sound frustrating but i agree with other users that the fact that you are using an expensive Mac does not relegate you to inferior word processors. go ahead and install office for Mac and enjoy!

@Donald Morgan The key word was AUTOCAPITALISATION.

sounds sarcastic but i decided to miss the sarcasm. pages is just a flawed word processor. It's free and I guess that is the price for freebies

it is incredibly annoying that this feature has been lost

Do you have textexpander? I had the same problem and after scourging the web, I realized it could be text expander doing that. So I changed it in textexpander preferences and it resolved my issue. Had such headaches coding prior.
