Think you can get there doing Control Panel/Display and

Control Panel - Display - Appearance

If you have Windows XP, you will have to click on "Advanced" at the bottom right of the screen.


Then click in the space where it says "Window Text." Choose the color you want, click "Okay," then click "Apply."


That should do it!


If you go to Start, Control Panel and
Sounds you can change things under the Sounds tab and play around with it. Don't know which listing you would have to uncheck as I don't know if that is a popup window or what, but it is a place to start.

Is your pedal listed when you go Start/Control Panel and look under game ports?
s
Control Panel-
Security Center
Check in Control Panel>
Default Programs and see about file associations, or what your mail program thinks is the default connection. There also might be a place in WinZip to designate a connection, but I don't know for sure because I don't use that program.

Hope you find it, let us know!
Check control panel?
Look under control panel/printers and faxes and make sure the printer didn't get changed, or maybe just click on it again.

Also, make sure all the cables on back of printer and computer are tight.
EXText: ESP control panel?

I am new to this whole "platform" business (used to type strictly from tapes or from dictaphone system tank in hospital) and noticed under Tools the ESP control panel (or something like that).  Is this an expander?  How does it work?


Thank you


Look in your control panel for "foot pedal" if you - sm
have XP and see how it is set up.
Try Folder Options in Control Panel.

Go to the View tab and then click Show hidden files and folders.  I hope this works.


You also might have to go to Control Panel/Game Controller, and add it in there. nm

Same thing happened to me.....go to settings, control panel, (SM)

printers or fax printer, making sure the printer you are using has a "check mark" next to it.  Right click on the printer that has a check next to it (if there are more than 1 listed), click on Properties.  Under General, click on Print Test Page.  If there is an error, it usually will list the problem and and offer you the option to use Repair.  Additionally, you may want to check your connections to be sure they are secure.

Foot pedal control/knee control? (sm)

My sewing machine has a knee control built into the side of the cabinet and I find this very comfortable.  I would like to somehow do the same with foot pedal I use for transcription.  Can figure out how to mount it, but having trouble adjusting it so the 3 pedals are not an issue.  ANyone done this or have any input? 



 


Foot pedal control/knee control
Though I have not had experience with this type of modification, I have repaired numerous footpedals and have some information that may be helpful. Generally, the footpedal is comprised of the primary circuit board, the wiring to the computer, and the three switches for play, rewind, and fast forward. These switches are easily removed from the pedal with a screwdriver. With basic soldering, you can lengthen the wiring to each switch, or even replace them with different switches you can get at a local electronics store. With a little bit of creative engineering, you could mount some knee -controllable switches that could control the footpedal.
display disarray
Yep, it happens to me. I just call the IT Dept. and the guys there can do something by remote. It might be YOU who's causing the problem. It could definitely be a Dictaphone situation. Call 'em.
Extext - Display Disarray
I'm not sure how to describe this. It has happened a few times to me, and I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it. Here's the problem: Occasionally, my fingers fly and I end up hitting keys that I don't intend to hit. Apparently, I'm hitting some sort of combo that sets of a function that I definitely do not want. At first, it appears as tho Num Lock is on, as when I hit any number keys, I get symbols on my screen. But it happens with more than numbers. It also happens with any punctuation keys, as well. If I try to highlight a portion of the text with my mouse, well... everything just goes kablooey. Click on a bit of text to place the cursor, and an entire paragraph is highlighted. Click again, and more is highlighted. All sorts of stuff happen. I try to Edit - Undo to go back to where I made my mistake, but that doesn't help. Even on my desktop, the strange behavior continues.

I'm not sure what I'm doing when I make this mistake, and I can't seem to fix it. In fact, I can't even shut down the computer to reboot. When I go to Start - Turn off computer - Restart nothing happens at all. I end up having to slam off the computer. Oy! Of course, by the time everything comes up, I've completely lost everything I was working on. This is not a regular occurrence. It happened to me this morning, and it's been months since it happened previously.

Has anyone else had this happen? Do you know what it is and/or how to correct it?
I mean, was it suppose to have a display? if so, then return it

A key fob is usually a small digital display
that has a 6-7 digit number that changes about every thirty seconds. You use it as your password to get into certain systems.

how to display header info on dictaphone?

Hi,


I have just started a new job that uses the dictaphone. Is there anyway to get the job information to display in the display window?  I had an account years ago that used the phone as well, and I remember there was a way to program the phone to display this information, but I cannot remember how to do it and cannot find this information anywhere!  Any help would be greatly appreciated!


problem with display properties screen sm

I am trying to change some settings for my display.  When I go into the display properties screen/appearance there are three boxes that are "locked" and I can't get rid of them. 


The top one says "message box", the one behind that says "active window" and the third one behind that says "inactive window".  They are like error boxes stacked on top of each other.  It won't let me "X" them out or anything.  Its like they are locked, so  I can't change change the appearance of my monitor.  I have rebooted and done everything I know to do and can't get rid of these boxes.  The other options tabs for my display work fine though.


I have IE set to display text size as largest, yet this font is so tiny I can barely see it.

Is there a specific panel/s you are looking for?
.
I just got a 22" flat panel LCD Monitor for $119. sm
at BestBuy. I absolutely love it. It will automatically adjust. It has an "auto adjust" feature. It is a "plug & play" when you hook it up to your computer.

You will like it.

All of my computers are Dell and the new LCD monitor is Westinghouse. Works fine!!



You'll have to go to the ESP panel and click...sm
on something that says to allow AutoCorrect to work. If I remember correctly, the ESP takes over and won't allow your AutoCorrect to work unless you do this step. It will ask if you're sure, just say "yes" and go on. Works for me anyway. Good luck.
Link for Oncotype gene panel

Once you get there, click link for "21-gene panel," and you'll get a nice little table of all the genes! In case you can't get to that site, I'll e-mail the contents of the table to you.
Go to "Control Panel" and then click on "Sounds" sm
Then click on the "Sounds" tab. If the sound you're talking about is a Windows Default sound, it should still be there. If it's a sound scheme you downloaded, you will probably have to download it again.
? switching monitors to flat panel sm
I have ordered a flat screen monitor from Dell and will be switching from a 14 inch dinosaur to a 17 inch flat screen on an Acer tower. I just wonder if I am going to have problems or does it "adjust itself" without problems. Need more desk space. TIA
Lipid panel. They specifically stated that are not testing

I got my computer locally so as not to deal with Dell and Fed Ex etc. I have a flat panel and I
think it is okay but not as clear as the regular monitors. I think if you pay a fortune for an LCD you get great clearness but with the 3 or 400 dollar ones it is adequate. I live in PA also. I got it because it is better for your eyes.
Mine shows under Contrl Panel/Add or Remove Programs. No

Why do you let this man control you? (sm)

Confront him about his actions.  Do not hold back.  If it continues, then discuss the problem with all your family members.  You are letting him run your life.  Then let your mother et AL decide whether they want to see you on your terms or if they prefer to have no relationship.  


All this animosity will eat your alive.  Get it off your chest and you do not need a counselor to do it.  Just be yourself and be honest and upfront with him.

cannot control what others do
Personally I would just stop having anything to do with her.  I would tell your husband why and no one else.  Just stop doing anything with her, talking to her, etc.  If you have kids, unless the kids are asking to see her, carry on with your life.  And don't say it isn't that easy.  It is.  And what she does is what she does.  What you do is what you do.  What you and your husband have together is outside of what she does.  Keep it simple.  Don't say anything negative about her.  I know you have hurt but you said you worked though it.  You can do that with this too.  Be strong. 
The key to all of this is control+K
which allows the next keystroke to be entered as the command, in your case hit control B. When the box comes up, make sure the control box is checked, not shift or Alt, and then click okay. repeat at end of phrase.
Out of control
Although working from home is great - I have always felt as if the company that I worked for was more in control of my life than I was. Telling me when I had to have something done - even though they never live up to their own standards. One very well-thought of company on this board is just that way - I have QA sitting out there from the weekend and it hasn't been checked yet, but once it is, they will expect me to have it done in 30 minutes and to the hospital - I'm ready to give up this profession or vocation or whatever anyone wants to call it.
