How do I delete mispelled email address and username from auto-correct?

Thanks for your reply. I tried it, I was unable to find the specific mis-spelled username and mispelled email address.

I did delete older email addresses.

Let me give you an example of the mispelled username:

Here, my username is Webhead1990. The user name I want to delete from autofill would be similar to Webbead1990, where a "b" replaced the "h". Webhead1990 v. Webbed1990.

And a similar mispelling on my email address in which an "s" erroneously replaces a "g", with the correct letter being "g".

This mispelling is all my fault, but I just don't know how to delete from wherever the mis=spelled words are.

Thanks again for your time,

Webhead1990

When I just typed out Webh... above, the auto correct tried to change the "h" with a "b".

Thanks for your reply.

I use Safari v 9.12. There is a menu item for "Spelling and Grammar", I'll try to upload a screen print:

I don't see from this menu where I can change the dictionary, assuming the dictionary has the mis-spelled username and the mis-spelled email address.

When I search "dictionary" in the Safari help menu bar "Help", a dictionary reference is not returned.

Btw, I see you have U.K. checked. I am CDT (CST) in the U.S.

1. I typed: Webbed1990

2. Ctrl-click on Webbed1990

3. see screen [rint below

I will do it again and select Correct Spelling Automatically:

Webbed1990 (Ctrl-CLick sleecting "Correct Spe3lling Automatically)

When I selected "correct spelling automatically, nothing happened.

Try again:

Webhead1990 (I just typed Webhead1990, and it didn't convert to Webbed1990)

try again:

Webhead1990 (Did not convert to Webbed1990)

Great Scott! sberman, your solution worked. Well done, and thank you.

Btw, 1990 represents the year I signed on with Apple's support communities using Webhead1990 as my username. At that time, It was OS 8. I answered questions like you. FOr my service to the community, Apple sent me OS 9. A year or two later and Apple sent me an Apple pen, whoch I still have. OS X was too complicated for me. I'm 69 now, and I figure I put in my dues back then. So, sberman & all of the others, I really appreciate your help. Thanks.

Webhead1990 (Btw, it just now asked me if I wanted to correct to Webbead 1990, which I declined.) This is okay since I can skip the option by comtinuing to type.

Webhead1990

sberman, sorry for this late reply. Family stuff had to get done.

I regret to say that a few years ago I took all of my Apple IIGS computers, drives, monitors, Imagewriter, disks, & software to a recycler. I have looked around the house to see if I kept the 9.0 software, but I cannot find it.

But I kept my son's first computer, a Lime clam shell, and my first Bondi iMac. I don't use them, they still work, but they are in my computer room and serve as "Art".

Hi Raph.

I remember back then I could add words to the spellcheck function.

On February 21, 1990 (best I can recall), I brought home a IIGS for my young children. One was 5, the other 3-1/2. They were the "digital natives". I became a "digital immigrant", while my wife remains a "digital alien'. My son is now 32, and has given his employer an employee with 27 years experience using computers. My daughter is 30, interning this year for a PhD, and she has almost 26 years experience using computers. My point is while I was born before color TV became a norm, before household central air conditioning, copies were made with carbon paper, the Apple IIs served as teachers. OS 8 & 9 were fun to learn. But OS X is too complicated for me now, yet for the digital natives - they don't need a manual.
