Hello,
I have received a MacBook Pro with latest MacOS High Sierra.
When I type text it often is automatically changed to something wrong and I have to erase and type the word again. Sometimes I have to do this multiple times before it is accepted.
How do I change MacOS so that it lets me type text without automatically putting errors in it?
Thanks a lot.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS High Sierra (10.13.1)
Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > uncheck "Correct spelling automatically". (systemwide)

Apple keeps moving it around. Because Apple is "all about consistency" these days.

You're welcome. Some preferences take hunting around.
How to stop MacOS from changing the text I type?
