I absolutely love GearPlayer 4, the newest version. It plays all files
and combine that with a good stereo headset, you'll be all set to go.  I am able to hear so well all sorts of dictators.  I cannot, and will not, work with Express Scribe, and I have found no other player as superior as GearPlayer.  They have a free download you can trial it for 5 days and see if works in your platform/voice files, found at transcriptiongear.com 
Only the newest version 10.

I have the newest version
 
Maybe downloading the newest version will help.

Newest version 4.17 will play .dss.
 
Just downloaded the newest version, 4.17, and it works with .dss.

I'm glad that the NCH people fixed this. Three cheers for them!


The newest version is VERY user friendly. The one right before
it stunk. Make sure you're getting to work on one that has the very newest version that came out this fall.
I just went to the website and clicked on the link to download the newest version and it worked.
www.pcshorthand.com is the website.  You can download a free trial of the software, but eventually you will have to buy a license.  You can also pay a little extra and have them ship the actual software to you with an instruction manual. 
I receive dss files with new version of ES

I just downloaded the newest version of ES, 4.17, a couple of days ago and I receive dss files fine.  There was a couple of glitches in the "settings" which I had to change, but now plays fine.


Another possibility:   I know when I first downloaded the free ES on my second computer, I could not listen to the files, but it was because I had a different foot pedal on that computer and so I had to go in and make some changes concerning the foot pedal settings in ES. 


Are you able to play the files using just the hot keys? If you would like to compare the "settings" which I have on my computer for ES to yours, let me know and I can do that either by email or phone. 


GearPlayer 4 plays .sri files. That the latest version, and it is great! nm

Files are emailed with password protected zip file attachments done in Word...(sm)
So I could use OE and send this way and ask for a reciept. I love that idea....
Has anyone updated yet to the new version of XP to 7.0 on updates and how does it work.

MEDITECH Version 5.61 Spellchecker work?

RAD MT new to Meditech Version 5.61 doing radiology - anyone know how to activate spellchecker?? Any infor appreciated.

Thanks.


The latest version of ES does work with Vista.

I work FT and then as an IC. I do not file
quarterly taxes for the IC position, only have an extra $10 taken out of state and federal from my FT job and this usually covers my taxes for the IC position, and I still usually have a small refund.
Will the Stedman's work with that version of Word? You buy the basic program and then

Why would Olympus files not work with FTP?
The types of file shouldn't have any impact on FTP use. FTP is simply a place to store and transfer files, whatever the type. Can you provide more details as to why you think they don't work well with FTP? FTP is the quickest and easiest way to transfer files, IMO.
If the latest version, post below says regular Infinity pedal will not work and cannot use outside p

AWESOME - does it work with sound files???
I love It thanks!
The files need to be associated with a player for pedal to work.

I use DSS files too. I work through the MedEDocs site. sm
My foot pedal is a 15 pin foot pedal that is plugged into the joy-stick port on my tower. I went to Radio Shack to get the 15-pin adapter to get it to work in the USB port. I think the adapter was maybe $15 or so. It works just fine.
Thanks, b/c 5 files at a time wouldn't work for me. nm

Setup.exe file does not work in Smartype?
I am trying to install an old Smartype disk and when I click on the setup.exe file nothing happens.  Why is that?  I am using Windows XP if that helps.  Thanks
Yes, but the test files are indicative of the actual work.
If the sound quality was so terrible, you didn't want to work there anyways! Right? I do know how you feel. I brain fahrvegnugened on the difference between brady and tachy. Now, everybody knows that one. I just got momentarily confused on it because I get "deer in the headlight" syndrome on oral testing.
No special files needed. If the PC has USB ports, then it will work. SM

Simply download the ShortHand install file from the website onto the jump drive.  Then open up your jump drive and install it.  When it asks for the file location (which defauls to c:programs) change it to your jump drive (on my PC it is the F drive).  Then install it.  The entire program will install on your jump drive.  Then plug into to whatever PC you want to use, open up the drive, double click the shorthand icon and it will run the program in the background from your jump drive.


I did it for years.  I had to type radiology in the office into Cerner with no abbrev Expander provided by the hospital.  I used my jump drive and it worked like a dream.  Everybody was amazed at how productive I was.  Never, EVER ask the IT people to help, the answer will always be no.


Anyone use Olympus player/pedal for work files- e-mail me nm

Delete your voice files at the end of your shift or before you start work again. No

They're still at version 7 and version 8 is supposed to come out this Fall, which may be compatib

All things being equal, do you prefer to work with a C-phone or use WAV files over the internet? sm
What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of each.  I have only ever used a c-phone but think I may bet getting ready to use WAV files and foot pedal for an account and am a little anxious!  TIA
OK, thanks. No I don't have the newest...
no msg.
JD is the newest member
of INXS. I liked both Mary and JD and especially loved their original songs "Pretty Vegas" and "Trees". I especially loved Marty and plan to download all his tunes he performed on INXS.
Per the newest BOS and Stedman's . . .
latest editions, the apostrophe s is now dropped from all eponyms.  There will still be some (many or even most) facilities that prefer the 's.  However, the "official" guideline is to drop it.  I think it sounds terribly incorrect, but I suppose over time it will be more widely accepted.
i do believe the barbato memo is the newest

The newest Stedman's is compatible.

Filezilla is the software used to transfer files to an FTP server where the files "reside".

Interesting - what is date on that? and does this newest memo from
I wonder?
This is why I uploaded the 4.15 version. It's a previous version

Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

Yep, the newest "fix" for the last few years of PMS and perimenopausal symptoms is
Serafem, which is just Prozac. The drug company "reinvented" a use for Prozac when they needed a new use! So, its called Serafem. You're supposed to take it a few days before your period, or sometimes all month - just depends.  Pretty flowery packaging! I went thru the same thing at about 43 to 44 - only symptoms as well, and never had 1 day of PMS prior to that.  It just stopped as suddenly as it had started.  Just me - we're all different. I tried the Serafem and it didn't help at all - just made me feel like a zombie 30 days of the month!  Good luck to you! Just had my LMP 2 days ago - only lasts for about 1/2 day now! Yeah!! I, for one, will not be missing THAT each month. No way!! Also remember if you have female teens at home, those hormones are floating all over in the air! Its HORRIBLE!  I have 2 daughters and we all get it the same time now, etc.  Oh, yes, and my face breaks out now as it did when I was a teen when I had my period. Never had that my entire life til now.  Just today we were all cracking up - all 3 of us had 1 huge zit on our noses!!  Nowhere else, and all 3 had the same one on our nose!  We are really fair skinned and blonde, and look RIDICULOUS!!  Oh well!
I think it is the same type of file, so rename it and replace your autocorrect file with your DQS us

Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm

I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank.  When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you


Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

Works is a dumbed down version of Word and Excel. You get the full version of Word in the Suite.
The Works Suite is a cheaper way of getting a full version of Word if you don't want or need the other applications in Office.
Converting voice files to digital files

I have a Voice Solutions dictation system that will happily convert DS4000 voice files to digital when they are downloaded (wave files). However, it will not recognize any other files for conversion. I had a physician download .WAM files from his DS-30 and my dictation system would not convert it. Anyone have any suggestions?  I would greatly appreciate any input.


Thanks!!!


...with your user.aco file. Save your autocorrect file to somewhere else. nm

You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.
Did you save files in .rtf format? The files need to be
as a Word document or it won't count them. Could be the problem.
If it's a retail version you can. If it's an OEM version, you can't.

Most companies do no use their only files (HIPAA). They use files provided by other companies, serv
If you can get through the test files, then the sound quality on the actual company files is better. And, the dictation is never as bad as the test files, plus you have QA to help with hard blanks.
