Using FTP download/upload Transfer (sm)

Posted By: mouthofthesouth on 2007-01-10

If a company uses FTP download/upload transfer method does that pretty much mean whatever is downloaded to you it has to be done at the end of the day and if you desire extra work you have to ask for it to be downloaded?  I prefer to sign on and get work without having to call the office and ask.  Would appreciate any info.

transfer-MQ

i wanted to transfer out of the foxboro office because of a lack of work and at that time supposedly all transfers to other offices( i wanted to go to the Ohio MQ office) were frozen--foxboro is part of the amherst office--when we were first transferred to the foxboro office, all accounts went also, but since then some have gone to other vendors and what i found is that all the remaining accounts were overstaffed and no one had work--being in amherst is not that much better--i just want an office that has work--right now i am in 5 accounts


 


are you being transferred there sometime soon???


transfer
I was called 2 weeks ago by my supervisor at Foxboro, asking if I wanted to go primary on the ohio account. Didn't realize until I got a call from the Columbus office that I am getting transferred there. They are sending my new computer next week and I do the DQS training the following week.

There are transfers to be had - even without asking!
Ohio transfer
You are so lucky--the Ohio office is a great place to work for, all kinds of incentives and you do not have to ask for them, plenty of work--good luck--you will enjoying working there, my girlfriend asked to be transferred there from Foxboro about 3 months ago and it has turned out to be the best move that she could have made. She is in one acccount and has all the work that she needs--what I don't understand is if there is so much work in the amherst office and accounts that are out of TAT, why you were not transferred there????
Transfer of expansions

Does anyone know how to transfer expansions from one platform over to a new platform? 


File Transfer Protocol

File Transfer Protocol
Secure way to send and receive jobs, voice files, and other documents, etc.
Does anyone still use MSWord and a transfer program
either nonexistant companies or have gone to platforms.
Oh, I see what you mean, misunderstood, I guess cause I can transfer funds....
NN
B4 you leave you should talk to your account mgr about a possible transfer
there are other teams in the company that still do straight typing, and have lots of work now.
I also work for Warminster. Thinking of trying to transfer out. It is now the NE and yes multiple
accounts all the time. Warminster has always done this and I hear the same for the NE so may be time to look at other MQ offices.
Can we all transfer out like that. Does she like her accounts in Ohio. They have huge universities
in Ohio, I mean huge.
Secure Copy Protocol - encrypted file transfer method. nm

DQS Download - sm
From what I understand, we are to just log in and it will prompt us to download the update....so just follow the instructions.
Download the Demos first and try them out...
FlashType:

Shorthand:

http://pcshorthand.com/
They download 1 job at a time.
,
I have dial up, you download? how
Where are you downloading from and to where, hardrive.  I would like to do this also, as I don't have to can get DSL . Can reply here or email.
Thank you for responding! Do we buy it or download it?

They use Chartscript and DVI to download
work.  You can work in Word or WP5.1, at least for now. 
if from PCshorthand.com, should be okay to download.
nm
KS uses Shorthand. You can download
a free trial from their website and KS may give you a license key so you don't have to pay for it.  Meditech is horrible, but I typed in Word and then copy/pasted into MediTech.  I know lots of MTs who do the same thing. 
What do ya'll think about that download
Now my computer is acting funny.
I'm sorry, but I usually download 3 jobs to start, then...sm
as I complete one, another one begins to download, so essentially I have 3 jobs downloaded most of the time, except for right now, which I have NONE!!!
Tried to e-mail but it bounced. You download from
a secure site, usually via an FTP site that your company has setup.  You download to a folder on your hard drive, the same as if you were downloading music or a program.  You then use a foot pedal connected to your computer that is compatible with the software program to play the files.  There are still lots of companies who for some reason have not converted to digital files though, or require you to be type into their system live. 
usually, for the online tests, you can download...
the voice file into a file on your computer, then download into Express Scribe player (free online), so you can use your foot pedal instead of the keyboard.
That would be when you first log on, after that they download while typing. No wait.

Not really...I know you can download Emdat off the internet sm
(just Google it) but I don't think you can get in without a password. I've never used it and I have only worked at MQ, also. I'm a little discouraged, as I am very anxious to move away from MQ and haven't heard anything. How much experience do you have?

I AM happy for you, though. It has to be better than the Q right now.
I think it's a free trial download, then $99.00

You can download a free 30 day trial and KS may

be able to give you a license # so you don't need to purchase it. 


I don't know if you can convert Meditech, but you can convert other Expanders to be used in ShortHand. 


You can uninstall SP3 and then block the download sm

The removal part is under the same section of the control panel where you uninstall programs. I think you have to click something at the top that says to show updates, then scroll through to find the update. I could not connect to the VPN my company uses when I downloaded SP3 and had to uninstall it. I also downloaded a tool from Microsoft that blocks the auto-update feature for SP3 for a year. If MS is offering a tool to block it, then you know there have to be problems with it. Here's the link if anyone wants it.

I did download express scribe but sm
I may be doing something wrong. I can't open this file in anything but windows media and it goes directly to windows media. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

BTW, why did you leave and do they pay on time?

Thanks
Download the latest version of
Adobe Reader 9.1, it's free.
If the questionnaire you have to fill out, is given by the company, ask them what's wrong.
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.
The download speed is not consistent, can be as slow as

dial-up at times.  I had it for a year so I know.   Satellite is also not secure, so if company is 100% compliant with HIPAA satellite would not be allowed. 


I had lots of problems with my satellite, though I was never without for more than a day.  Customer service was the absolute pits.  They have since updated some of their equipment that is suppposed to eliminate some of the issues.  


 


Download Crap Cleaner free
Great program and has uninstall program for free. Make sure you uncheck the MS Word box cleaner or it will get rid of your normal settings. Otherwise, best free program ever.

Download Express Scribe.....it's free
xx
DocShuttle/Bytescribe has a free download
nm
You can download a free trial version of (sm)
Slycount.  I have used it for a long time and find that it is very accurate.
Can you download Express Scribe and play the file thru there? nm

Are there any companies that I would download voice files and then send back but would be able to
transcribe on the move so I can travel but not use all my vacation time?  I wish I had paid attention earlier this year..but I didn't know I'd ever be in the position to need to do this.
Anybody know of any good line counting software that is free to download?

TIA


It was a test for a company and I have no clue if you had to download drivers. I would not care to
do that to take a test.
I have dial-up and make money. I download my work and I can start transcribing

as soon as the first report has downloaded.  Once I download I disconnect, do my work, then connect and send my completed work.   I usually start my download in the morning then go take my shower, feed all the animals, grab myself something to drink and I'm ready to go.   Once the work is downloaded what type of connection you have doesn't matter.  


Sure it is safe to post your resume on the net, provided it is a reputable site.  I would not just post it anywhere, but post it on the job boards here and other reputable sites.   Most sites have some type of safeguards in place so that you have to have registered with the site and/or paid a usage fee to view information like addresses and phone numbers, so that not just anyone can view the information. 


Another option may be an account that has C-phone or similar accounts, where you aren't downloading, but dialing directly into the system. 


 


This was moved from main board to company board. Replies don't transfer. nm

If you have an Infinity pedal, you can pull the files in thru Express Scribe, (free download) and
