Can't turn off auto-correct in Pages 6.2

Hey MBond5

Found a solution.

Running Pages 6.2 on a brand new Macbook Air. Was autocorrecting and wouldn't stop even unselected.

Went to EDIT - SUBSTITUTION and unchecked all four checked boxes. Quit Pages. Reopened. New Doc, worked. Quit Pages. Reopened, still working.

Hope this helps. - AB

Use autocorrection

When your spelling is checked automatically, misspelled words are underlined in red, and suggested corrections are shown in blue under the word. If you don’t see autocorrect suggestions, make sure autocorrection is turned on.

1. Choose Pages > Preferences (from the Pages menu at the top of your screen).

2. Click Auto-Correction at the top of the preferences window, then select or deselect “Correct spelling automatically.”

3. With autocorrection on, do any of the following:

   • Accept suggestions: If there’s only one suggested correction, just keep typing to have the word changed to the suggestion. If two or more suggestions are shown, choose one.

   • Ignore suggestions: Press the Esc (Escape) key, then continue typing.

   • Undo autocorrections: An automatically corrected word is briefly underlined in blue. To revert to your original spelling, put the insertion point after the word to show your original spelling, then choose your spelling. You can also Control-click the word to show your spelling, then choose it.

Save your work, and Quit (cmd+Q) Pages v6.2. Launch it again, open the same document, and has all correction ceased?

I have done the same things as those that MBond5 did, I also have done what you suggested, and unfortunately I am facing the same issue.

My Pages version is also up-to-date.

Any other thing to try?

MBond — Thanks for the update!
