I use Gear Player and Gear Xport. Love them! nm

GearXport / Gear Xport / Gear Player

Hi!  Does anyone have a Gear Xport and/or Gear Player they are no longer using and could sell to me?  I thought I'd try and buy used before going new.  Let me know! 


Thanks,


Traci


Anyone using Gear player?

Sounds like a really good package deal, anyone using it?  I am thinking of using the digital recorder and buying the gear player package.


 


TIA,


Sunny


Gear Player is also...

an  alternative.


gear player--sm
i downloaded the free 5 day trial of gear player to take a test.  Cannot get it to work.  The icon is on my desktop, but when i try to open it to drop the voice file in, it only appears for a few seconds and then nothing.  any ideas??
Gear Player is the best.
I have been using Gear Player for 4 years now and it just keeps getting better. It plays what I need it to play. I had tried StartStop before Gear Player and it was like I was back on Windows 95. Above all I love Gear Players support department, the guys are very friendly and can fix anything if you ever do need to call them.
Gear Player,

Gear Player, Transcription Gear, several places have those for sale.  Also on E-Bay.  


GEAR PLAYER---I was going to put it on e-Bay, but...sm
Email me if you are interested. I'll give you a great deal on it! It was brand new when I bought it and used it only for about a month.

Please let me know either way. I need the $$. Thanks!
I bought Gear Player
a few years back and it's been really good. Just throw the file in there and transcribe away. Check it out. Their latest model is probably even better.
Help with Gear Player linking
I'm trying to do a test file, which I haven't done in a long time, and the only footpedal I have is Gear Player.  The sound file was sent on Windows Media Player.  Are these compatible?  Because I can't get this footpedal to link to it.  Bear in mind I'm technically challenged and usually have help setting these things up.  I found a foot pedal test picture that lit up when I pressed each of the three footpedal controls, so the problem seems to be that I don't know how to link it to Windows Media Player, or else this foot pedal is incompatible. 
VPEDAL AND GEAR PLAYER
Help plz.. does anyone use the VPedal (from Career Step) and use it with Gear Player? I can get it to work with Express Scribe, but not Gear Player. It it even compatible? Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks!
VPEDAL AND GEAR PLAYER
Thank you Gail! I am sure they can help.
Gear player or Bytescribe

Gear player vs. bytescribe... which is the more versatile? 


I am currently using start/stop, but the voice files I get it will not let me speed them up.  Dives me INSANE to listen to a sssssllllllllooooowwwwww dictator and not be able to speed them up.... actually would like to go whomp them up the side of the head .. but since that is not an option...


Looks like Gear player you can buy just the software, but Bytescribe you have to pay another 50 bucks and get the foot pedal.. no option that I could find not to. 


Thanks for any suggestions you all might have to offer.


Gear Player vs Express Scribe
could anyone please explain to me the difference between these two??  Express Scribe is free, but when am I missing something as to why I would pay to have Gear Player?  they seem awfully similar..thanks.
Express Scribe, Gear Player, etc.

I have used Express Scribe for years and love it. I had to restore my Win XP computer and now it will not play the .dss files.  I also have Express on my Vista without problems.  I have done everything that I know to do to get it to work, installed an older version, downloaded the .dss files, etc.  I am currently having to work on Gear Player or use my laptop to play the sound files.  What else is everyone using out there besides Express, Gear, or Bytescribe?? Any help would be appreciated! 


Starting job using Olympus Player/pedal - does this have a good player with slow down speeds - I do

Until now I have always used company software with player included.  I hate to spend money and find out the player is mickey mouse!!


Thanks- you may e-mail me if you prefer.


Transcription Gear.....sm.......

Transcription gear
I use Olympus with the company I work for now and it works well. Transcription Gear has a system that I do not think is quite as expensive. There is Bytescribe as well, and Express scribe (which is free). I think almost any handheld recorder will work with these.

Now, could you kick my butt into gear? LOL
  I don't wanna work today.  Not sure if it's the rainy weather or if it's just my total lack of motivation!
I am sure it was..i was just in high gear..going to fast to think LOL!

I purchased it through Transcription Gear
express scribe thing yet. Have too much work today to fiddle much with it. I appreciate everybody's advice and help on this.
Try Transcription gear.com website.

There should be an instruction booklet that came with the machine. Did you buy it new or used?


I got mine at Transcription Gear.

Transcription Gear FTP Question
Yes I leave Gearplayer and GearXport open all the time.  That's how i get my files (GearXport). Have used Transcription Gear and GearXport, and recently GearFTP for 8 years now and love it.  I, too, use Word XP but there are help screens in GearXport that help you write rules so that GearXport will direct the files to your clients.  Once the files are transcribed and sent via GearXport, I then send the client a notification to pick their files up on Gear FTP.  You don't have to do all that cutting and pasting.  The rule writing can be quite cumbersome if you have never done it, but the tech support staff at Transcription Gear are very helpful.  This really works great and will save you LOTS of time once you get your rules written.  Best of luck to you!
Transcription Gear/Xport- sm

We have been using this system for about a year, but have a recurring problem: We send our work through FTP but the office cannot always retrieve it and when I talk to the TG tech support they tell me that they can see that my work is "sitting in the FTP site and that the problem is with the doctor's office. This, of course, does not "sit well" with them and we are now setting up a meeting with their IT person, etc. Has anyone had a similar problem?


Thank you


Transcription Gear has them. Listed under accessories, I think. NM

Transcription Gear user questions - sm

I just started using Transcription Gear/FTP and have some questions.


Do you keep TG open all the time? Do you keep Gear Export open all the time?


How do you send your work to the doctor? Right now I create my document in Word XP, save it, exit, and then go through several steps to paste the document to the medical records FTP site.  Seems like too many steps.


Any help with this and/or with TG in general would be most welcome.


Thank you.


 


nope i'm goin, i've got my hula gear
 weeebye ya'll
Transcription Gear would have to approve the transfer of license from
I don't even know if they allow this.  You should check into that first.
Thanks for all the feedback...time to kick it into high gear, I guess..nm

do we have to purchase a
Do independent contractors working from home have to have a business license to work from home? Please help as this issue has been raised. Thanks for any help!
Where did you purchase? sm
I bought one from Exprescribe like that and never could get it to work.
Does anyone know if you can purchase
a C-phone locally or you have to get them on the web? I am freaking out. A little bit of water got spilled on mine and the buttons will not work now. I let it dry out overnight and it seems fine when you plug it in, but none of the buttons will work!
Does anyone know where I can purchase sm.

VoiceScribe program?  I am offered a position with a company but they only give you a 30-day trial for this program - then after that you have to purchase license for $600.  I just can't afford that right now.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you. 


definitely purchase something

I got a Brother fax machine several years ago at Office Depot for around $80 or so.  I later got an HP all-in-one in 2005 at Sam's.  I don't remember what it cost, but it's worth it if you'll be faxing regularly.  Some of your clients may prefer a scanned version.


You could also compare on-line fax capabilities, which seems to be more current, for obvious reasons.  I can't remember the details, but I've heard it advertised on talk radio.


Just a thought, especially if you'll be doing this regularly.  Places like the UPS Store, etc. charge a good bit to fax, not to mention the inconvenience of leaving the house to do it.


I have used a Digital Transcribe Station from Transcription Gear in lieu of a C phone just fine nm

Me too. Let me know if you find it. I will purchase it also. I also don't know whether or not
Good luck.
Need to purchase cphone
Help!  I am trying to get started transcribing at home and I have work to do but I need advice on what type of transcribing phone to purchase.  I have been instructed by my current employer to by a cphone that dials into an automated system to retreive my work.  Please, any advice or if anyone has one for sale.  The cheaper the better or I will buy used.  Thanks.
It is normal to have to purchase your own
provide the PC.  Some will provide the foot pedal if you do not have what is required.  Some companies give you the option of renting their equipment.  It all depends on the company, but yes you will have to have your own resource books.
Anything you purchase for your transcription

You might want to check out some of the earlier posts here as the tax issues have been discussed.  You would probably gain information in that respect.  Also, you might want to have an accountant/tax preparer for your first year.  Some say, you can copy the next year from that first year, but I personally believe in having my taxes prepared for me as these guys are up on things, ya' know.  Most definitely though you will want to get your own freestanding PC because down the road you may want to gain some of your own accounts, so you will need that.  You will be fine.  Some of these people act like you out to take their job or something???  Go figure.  There is always one bad apple in the bunch, right?  I learned that in grade school.  Best wishes in your endeavors.... 


Because of scammers, if you purchase a new pc,
and want ALL the CDs, you are going to have to make a verbal request. 
Yes, you can purchase an adapter just about anywhere
that sells computer accessories, such as Radio Shack, Best Buy, CompUSA (online only now), etc.
Research and purchase best available. NM

Here's the link to purchase it
https://textware.securesites.net/order/it-order.htm

If you already have version III, you can upgrade to V for about half the cost.
Is it a program you have to purchase? nm
nm
LOL - but the poster is asking to purchase
the company provided PC?
Individual MT usually has to purchase it ..

An alternative would be to purchase and download
a product called Phone Tools by BVRP.  It functions as both a fax and answering machine. I've been using it for >5 years now and have never had any problems. 
if you use your debit card for gas purchase (SM)
make sure you realize that some companies (Shell is really really bad to do this) will reserve extra funds on your debit card until the transaction completes and releases those funds 24-72 hours later. With Shell, it is $75 over your purchase. I nearly fainted when I realized what was happening. You can go on MSN Money and find a few articles on this -- gas companies reserving funds on your debit card.
Be aware before you purchase online sm
I've never ordered any of my pets' meds online but my friend has. One of her dogs was found to have heart worms and the guarantee was not honored because the product was purchased from a website which does not guarantee its products. I can't remember which site it was; you may want to inquire before you purchase. (She ended up paying $700 for treatment.)

Please overlook any typos, it's been a LONG day.
