Download the file from FTP to your hard drive.
Then hit Load button, find where you saved the file on your hard drive and Load. Now, you're in business.
Try doing a search located
at the top of each page.  I search in mtstars and it pulls up alll posts from all boards.
Do a search of your C drive for it. I have mine placed directly - sm
in my C drive but usually it is in some obscure place within a file, within a file, etc. Look for "autorecovery" and see what comes up. Then the file will not be named "Smith ltr" or whatever but with letters and numbers, go by the date modified column (list details) for the date and time of the file. Hope this helps.
Not really sure, that file should be in your C drive - sm
just check and mine comes up fine. Double click on the C drive, have all the files come up that way....also make sure that the box just right of the C drive selection has an * in it, this should get you all files and folders shown. It's a pretty simple program so once you figure this out you should be fine. Have fun.
where is the hard drive sm
I never unscrewed the tower case. Where will I find the "hard drive?" I know it sounds like a dumb question, but I really don't know squat about the guts of the hardware.
Hard drive out, now what?
So now you have the hard drive out, what do you do with the hard drive?  TIA

How large is your hard drive, and
how much free space do you have. Remove unnecessary programs that you do not use. Download CCleaner from the Internet. It is a great program and free. It cleans out the temp files, cookies, etc. when you log off the Internet. See how much RAM you have and check your motherboard manual for the maximum RAM allowed. More RAM will speed up your computer. Also, if you have more than 1 stick of RAM, some of them may be dead, and this could slow down the computer too. A lot of variables come into play. Try one thing at a time. There are plenty of things you can do. Good luck!
Also as I just blew my hard drive
Take the sideoff and get some compressed air and clean out the inside of your computer..I noticed mine was getting slower and slower..Forgot to clean the inside and here I am replacing a hard drive...All it takes is a spec of dust on the hard drive to make things haywire
You need to get somebody to partition your hard drive. sm
Your computer can have both Vista and XP on it, your tech guy or somebody who is up on this stuff partitions off your hard drive so you can boot up with either one. My computer is partitioned so when XP is no longer supported, my Vista will be like an upgrade. I also read, on here I think, that you could even use a second hard drive.
Oops, meant zip file, not drive.

Hard Drive Twilight Zone...

Hi,


Last night I had a file and folder open and left them there.  This afternoon I sat down to try to get some work done on it.  I decided to clean up the bottom tray and closed out the file, folder, and other www pages I left open (Yahoo., local library, etc.) to re-open items in the order I usually like them only to discover that the drive that I work on is totally missing. 


I've done searches for names of files on that drive, searched for the drive itself, checked the trash bin in case of some fluke it might be there.  Nada, zip, zilch, ___you fill in the blank, the system says I used a bad word. 


What else can I/should I do besides shoot myself?


Thanks. 


OOPS my hard drive crashed

Either charge him an astranomical amount or say "oops computer crashed and lost them" or snce you no longer have his account you erased them.  They are your property and you are entitled to be compensated if he wants them and give them to him.   They are yours and not his. 


 


Part was cut off. Deleted it from the hard drive. I would
like to get this working so I can test with other places.  If not, I dont know what to do.  I have an Infinity foot pedal and it works fine on DQS so I dont want to go out and buy foot pedals not knowing what to buy and if it will work.  Hopefully this tech guy will have an answer since he works for the company I am testing for. 
How much room do you need on your hard drive if you work for 2 companies at once. I know this is a
stupid question but I am ready to buy a computer and I am thinking of going part time with 2 companies and each one has their own platform but I dont want to pay for some hugh unnecessary computer. Can someone tell me what has worked for them if you work for 2 separate companies.
Is it possible to do a system back-up (hard drive information) to a USB
zip drive?  Have you done it?  How do you figure how big of a zip drive is needed?Thanks.
I too use an external hard drive, backs up My Documents folder. sm
It only takes once to lose everything to know how important backups are.....I should know, happened to me!!
Mine works with printer and external hard drive
You just need to get the more expensive USB Hub with a power adapter if it doesn't work with your printer.
I've lost more than one hard drive on Dell computers
That's the message you get normally if the hard drive if fried.  I just called Dell and they diagnosed the problem and sent me a new hard drive and I returned the bad one. Is yours still under warranty?
Try doing a search on your normal.dot file (sm)
If you have more than one of them, it could be conflicting and causing your Word to run slow.  I rec'd an error msg about not having enough memory.  My dearest friend spent hours helping me to figure this out.  If that is the problem, you need to be sure to save one of them and delete the others.  Before you delete anything, be sure to add a word into your autocorrects, save it, and then save that normal.dot so you do not lose all of your autocorrects.  Hope this helps.
You are right though..you have to search hard to get decent rates...sm
It IS a shame you have to work multiple accounts to make a decent living. Persistence does pay off though. You can look and look for those jobs offering higher lines...suddently, as soon as you find one and start you will hear on a few more. I just take them all, figure out time and lines needed and set scheduled accordingly so I can balance them all so I am never out of work.
You could always try doing a system-wide search for a patient you know is on the file and maybe
nm
Ctrl/S gives you the search function. Put in the names where appropriate and find a file you
s
Do google search for Switch Sound File Converter...
and follow instructions - VERY easy!
First, you need to remove 4 screws to replace/remove your hard drive. (sm)
Once the screws are all removed, the hard drive (4 x 4 x 2) is sitting in the bottom of the cage. This won't always be the situation, (some really cheap cages are open at the bottom, so the instant the last screw is removed the drive drops if you aren't holding on). Oddly enough, this is the most critical stage of replacing a hard drive, in the sense that removing the drive through the case where the ribbon cables are bunched up and over the CPU and heatsink is most likely to create another problem. If the cables are long enough, you can leave them attached to the hardrive as you slide it out, but don't try pulling through a mess, clear a path first. If you are discarding the entire unit, dont worry about  being gentle handed.
A jump drive is the same as a USB drive. SM
It's basically a small device you plug into a USB port on your PC and you can store files on it (like the floppy disks of the old days but with WAAAAAAY more space!).  You can pick them up at Wal-Mart now for pretty cheap.  I have a 2 gig and I can back up my entire hard drive on my PC (programs and all) if I needed to.
Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

Is this the one that is located in
If this is the same company, then the reason they do not "pay for spaces" is because they pay by the gross line -- spaces do not matter when counting gross lines.
Don't know where you are located, but (m)
Check this out. It's not for only low income. There is not a pickup point near me so I haven't done it, but if there was one close, I'd be there.

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.

where are you located? We might be neighbors!
I live in the Chicago suburbs and a company down the street is owned by a man, and they have a VA account they are hiring for. Just curious if this is for BOS?
Where are you located? (see inside)
I used to have Comcast a couple of years ago and never, ever had a problem with it. Fast, never went down except for the rare maintenance which customers were informed of. I couldn't have been happier with it.

I recently signed back up for Comcast and have noticed that it will randomly just go down for anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes, only 2 lights blinking on the modem for some unknown reason, and then just as randomly start working again. It's gotten me so paranoid I find myself looking at the modem to make sure all 3 lights are working before I try to upload a job so I don't lose it.

I'm in central CA; are you on the west coast as well, or is this perhaps a national issue with Comcast high speed connections? To my recollection, it was never unreliable like this before.
Are they located in Central CA?
I think this place might be local for me.
If it rains hard, the wind blows hard and there are trees
nearby, it snows heavily it will mess up the signal.  The speed is not constant, sometimes as slow as dial-up, but at least still connected.  Many companies will not allow satellite. 
Never heard of them. Where is their site or ad located? nm
,
it really depends on where in the country you are located
if you are in NYC or Long Island, the amount is never less than $100. Further north of NY can go about $50. If it's a close relative you go higher in $$.
I'm not sure of anywhere else.
Never mind. I just located the info. SM

Samuel Nowlin Reeves (geologist) is his FATHER. 


Wow.  This girl swears up and down that the late Christopher Reeves is his father.... DUH... I don't think so.


 


Thanks anyways.  (Cant wait to tell her na na na na na tomorrow.  LOL)


Where are you located? city/state.

Jay is Indian and located in Herndon...nm

It all depends on where you're located.

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.
An idea of who this company is or where located would give you
