Actually it's in MacBook Air Ventura 13 most recent I believe.
Thanks in advance for any susgestions. :)
MacBook Air 13″
Start with this of M1 or M2 Mac...
On your Mac, choose Apple menu > Shut Down.
Wait for your Mac to shut down completely. A Mac is completely shut down when the screen is black and any lights (including in the Touch Bar) are off.
Press and hold the power button on your Mac until “Loading startup options” appears.
Select a volume.
Press and hold the Shift key, then click Continue in Safe Mode.
The computer restarts automatically. When the login window appears, you should see “Safe Boot” in the menu bar.
Restart normally.
Start with this if IntelMac...
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes or more.
Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.

OK nice!! Didn’t understand this direction: "Select a volume.” I have a M1 MacBook Air, but I chose settings and then was more confused. I chose look in Safari and restarted and VOILA text replacements are working everywhere they weren’t before.
I had done a normal restart several times before to no avail!
Thank you, Thank you!!!! Thank you!!!!!!! I’ve spend a couple of days searching for a solution!!
Peace and Joy to you kind helper!!!
