You plug in a keyboard just like you would on a desktop and

use that keyboard instead of the one on the laptop.  Keyboard doesn't have to be USB, can use an adapter if your keyboard is PS/2, although older laptops do have a plug for PS/2.

You can plug in a USB keyboard into a laptop or use a docking station.

Then you plug it in.

I doubt that they can take a snapshot of your desktop.
When you upload a document, it appears on their screen. From THIS they can make a snapshot.
They do this and email it back to you if there is a dispute regarding something in the document.
I really doubt that
they can take a snapshot of YOUR computer desktop or anything that comes up on your computer, if you do not upload it to them. How would they be able to do that?

Can tech support copy my desktop?
I am just curious.  This is my computer and I use it to make a living.  Kind of like tools of the trade.  But, I wonder if it is possible for tech support to copy information on my desktop.  I worked for a company where they spent an unreasonable amount of time on my desktop.  Am I just being overly suspicious? 
I've been able to get it to load files from the Desktop, no problem. nm

Keyboard
Some info for you on main board, maybe 2nd or 3rd page.

OK...call me dummy...what do you mean external keyboard???  Just signed out from work at 7 a.m...still not functioning, not thinking....
NN is passed out at the keyboard
with empty bags of Cheetos strewn around, Cheeto powder all over the keys, guess she'll have to call in sick today.
Contour keyboard
Has anyone here tried the Kinesis Contour Keyboard? The two sides of the keyboard letters are split far apart to opposite sides of the keyboard platform, farther apart than the standard ergonomic keyboards. I just wondered if it's hard to get used to and if it helped with wrist pain.

Silent keyboard

Does anybody have a recommendation for a keyboard that is almost silent?  Mine is so noisy it hinders my ability to hear words correctly.  Thanks!


Nobody held your hands to the keyboard
  Go away!!
Thanks, I don't have the foot pedal, had to do it with keyboard. SM
YUCK! NOT FUN!
keyboard sticking .. thus the errors!!
My apologies .. I am going to buy a modem and will get a new keyboard as well .. probably need an eye appt. too!!
The PC check also messed with my keyboard,
could not use some shortcut buttons, had to reinstall the keyboard driver CD that came with it and then it worked fine again, hopefully you have one for yours, otherwise you can most likely find the driver for it on the web somewhere. Haven't noticed any problems otherwise from the PC check program.
you can download typewriter/keyboard sm
sounds for free from the internet. I had to do that because it also helps me by hearing the typos. You can turn the sounds of the keyboard up or down but it doesn't affect the sound of your dictator. I think its called Sound Pilot.
DocQ audio from keyboard
CTRL + SPACEBAR to toggle on and off for play, CTRL + comma and CTRL + period for rewind and fast forward. Once you've tried it for a half a shift, you'll never want to see your footpedal again!
I use both a wireless mouse and keyboard
and love it! I've used both the Microsoft 7000 wireless keyboard and mouse as well as the Logitech wave wireless keyboard and have no problems with either one keeping up with fast keystrokes.
Definitely keyboard + expander macros. SM
Mouse absolutely as little as possible. Maximal creation of macros (or more realistically, aiming for) to perform those corrections that come up all the time. BTW, those macros I create on my Expander belong to me. Most MTs so far don't have this skill to offer, making me faster and better than most. That'll change someday, in big part due to posts like this, but until then, or until tech changes make this skill obsolete, it definitely works to my monetary advantage. Try it.
Don't want to have to use keyboard to type test reports. Anyone know (sm)
of companies that just do the verbal testing or a company that you can do the test reports using the same foot pedal control we use with Medquist? 
They do supply standard, but I have connected my IBM keyboard.

Keyboard. Using the mouse is too hard on my hands. nm

Hate using keyboard for testing ? co. test can use MQ footpedal? nm)

DocQ, hmmm, how to play audio from keyboard??
Can you share.  Didn't know, worked on platform twice and nobody ever said this.???  Can you share?
I use keyboard only....move along with the voice with my arrow keys, then...
my mouse is right where the voice is when I have to make a correction. Couldn't do it any other way.
I use the Microsoft wireless 4000 comfort keyboard
and had no trouble switching to it from my split keyboard.  It is curved, so has a similar feel.  I love being wireless.  I use it with my laptop and work on it all day.  I think I've been working wireless for about 2 years now and couldn't go back.  I work with my keyboard in my lap, so the wireless is great.
not gott.... GOTTA (I hate my laptop keyboard..fingers are too fat)

I wish Logitech made a wireless ergonomic/split keyboard.
nm
Axolotl employees....Is the computer keyboard they supply ergonomic or standard?
I am scheduled to start in about a month and am trying to prepare.  Thanks!
