You can buy just the Start/Stop software w/o the pedal if you're able to use your pedal as a VEC

Free? As in, free trial? Otherwise, I don't think you'll find a spellcheck software that's

What pedal software?
Express Scribe has a wizard that will help you get your pedal to work with their program. There is not a separate software program for the pedal.
Open Express Scribe, choose Settings, Playback and Control. Make sure the box for footpedal playback control is checked. In the Port box, make a selection based on the type of pedal you have (USB, serial port, etc.) In the Pedals box, choose 3-pedal (forward, back, play). Click on the Footpedal Control Wizard Setup and use that to help set up the pedal. If it doesn't work the first time, try making a different selection in the Port box until you find one that will work.
Do you pay for the wave pedal and software? I don't.
I rent the computer with the pedal and everything for $50 a month.
I have never spent any money on the software -- MQ has provided it free.
They reimburse my DSL 100% every month. When I hooked up to it, it only cost me $12.95 and they reimbursed that as well.
I can makeup time I lost to bad weather. I don't like it, it's not my first choice, but I certainly don't expect them to PAY me just because there is a storm and it is safest not to have the system plugged into power. Even when I worked in a local hospital on an hourly basis, in bad weather we were off the computers...but I also was available for that hourly rate to file and do other things they wanted. I'm not doing that for MQ when I'm able to type for that reason so they don't owe me anything but the chance to make it up or forfeit any action if it caused me to miss my production.
I'm really surprised though, if you are having to pay extra for your pedal and software, etc. Sorry to hear that.
The pedal isn't the issue, it is the software.
ExpressScribe is free and works with most of the formats, but not sure all of them. Start/Stop also works with the majority of formats, as does Bytescribe. You can buy a pedal from e-bay, the equipment board here, or just about any transcription equipment company that will work with ExpressScribe.
foot pedal software..HELP
I have an Infinity foot pedal with USB port, but no software to go with it. When I bought the thing, did not realize software was not included with the pedal as job I ordered for fell through in the interim. I now went to use the pedal and realize there is no software to put into my computer so the foot pedal is recognized.
ANY HELP...suggestions...please.

What are do you mean? Foot pedal, software, ??????

Again, it is in the software, not the foot pedal.
The Express Scribe program will play many file types, among them .wav and .dss. If your foot pedal does not work, the problem is either the software you're using or the foot pedal configuration. Express Scribe does have a foot pedal set up wizard to help you with that process. Express Scribe is a free download.
Have you tried uninstalling and then reinstalling your pedal software? Sometimes it not enough to
do a "repair." You have to completely remove it, reboot your PC, and then start from scratch.
Also, is your dog all right? I wondering if the poor thing was electrocuted? My cat chewed on the cord to my head set. Thankfully, didn't chew all the way through, but took the plastic off, exposing some wires. My husband patched it up with some electrical tape and it's working so far, but I think I'm going to be buying a new headset!
Those darn pets! They're as bad as the kids wanting mommy's attention! 
Good Luck!
What software are you using with the foot pedal and for transcription? Sm
Express Scribe, Bytescribe Wav Player, etc.???? There should be something under options/settings for selecting USB with these software programs.
I used their software/foot pedal. It is just a wave
file program.
You will need wav player software on your PC for your pedal to play
files. You can download Express Scribe for free and it works really well. Then you will need your clients to use digital recorders to record their dictation. The dictation can then be saved to a jump drive, disk, etc. or uploaded to an FTP site that you maintain and you will then be able to download the files from the FTP site to your PC and transcribe them.
Free Foot Pedal Software
I thought that there might be some other people out there that would appreciate a link to a free foot pedal control application. Check it out:
PedalWare - http://www.altoedge.com/pedalware/index.html
Most software works with a USB pedal with the exception of a very few.

Have you set the foot pedal up in your software. Not doing so can be a major factor in why SM
won't work. I know lots of people who just plugged the foot pedal into the computer but never set it up in the software and they had the same problems that you are having.
That price s/l it includes the software. I bought a pedal
just a few months ago for $70.00 that is brand new. It is an Infinity pedal that has been configured to be used with VXP. It is also referred to as DVI, same software just different name. I have been using it for 5 years and have had 3 foot pedals, none of which cost more than $70.00.
"wav" pedal is a generic term. Some software is
proprietary and requires a specific "wav" pedal. Download ExpressScribe for free (google for URL). You can open one of your completed files using ExpressScribe and if it plays okay then your pedal will work, unless of course you get a job that may use a proprietary software and then it may or may not work.
Infinity USB pedal and Express Scribe software. sm
You may need to install an additional file to play .dss files.
This setup works for me.
I think your Infinity foot pedal has iNet software
set up so it will not play with Express Scribe (I had the same problem). I ended up buying a new Infinity foot pedal off ebay for $65 including shipping and it works fine on Express Scribe and WinScribe. Good luck!
Is there a quick way to get WavPedal software? I have a new computer and the foot pedal, but...sm
no software. A company is asking for it to test.

Anybody know of any free foot pedal/transcription software besides Express Scribe? TIA. nm

A WAV pedal controls playback of voice files. You need a software program through which to play the
The term "WAV pedal" has become a generic term. The software that you use will determine the file type(s) that you are able to play on your computer. You use either a pedal or hot keys (Fkeys) to control that playback. As stated below, Express Scribe is one such software program and it is free. It can be found by clicking on the link below.
Yeah, you're right. Who cares who licenses your software? Heck, I use all pirated software anyw
why pay for anything, right?
Except that is AGAINST THE LAW!!!
A friend of mine got one and she is finding that some of her software, specifically her ISP software

This would be just a "regular" 3-pedal pedal and not the Dictaphone pedal. nm

If u need server software, try guild ftp. If just user software
then try cuteftp, coffeecupftp, or wsftp. They don't charge a line rate and I believe guildftp server software is still free.
Bringing up ExpressScribe pedal question again. Does anyone have 9-pin Infinity pedal on a USB?
tia
Thank you! I may do a trial...
well. I was just wondering if I had to retype as I do have some other accounts that I would eventually put on there. I was also wondering about the invoice feature as one accont I get paid for blank lines.... Anyway not to ramble... Thanks again!
Maybe you could ask for a trial
Maybe you could ask for a trial period, tell the potential employer the problem, that DSL is not available to you. I may be wrong, but I think you can get satellite internet most anywhere, if there's no other alternative. Also, if you are able to get cable, check into cable modem, which most any cable company is doing now. Sorry for your situation! I hope you find work soon!
trial - would if I could!
Unfortunately, I've already called the cable company and that's not available here yet either. Satellite is, but most of these companies say that it MUST be DSL or cable and that satellite will not work.
I would certainly offer a trial, but I can't even get anyone to talk to me! They find out I don't have cable/DSL, that's the end of the conversation.
It's just nuts...
NOT trial
The softwares are not good for 90 days or something. They are good without any trial period.
Is there ONE pedal I can buy that will work with ALL platforms? And where do I shop for a pedal?
.
A wave pedal is a foot pedal that connects to either
serial port, game port, or USB depending on the software needed with it. You have to download the work via the internet and most companies still require high-speed internet, though some allow dial-up or satellite. A pedal costs about $70, though can find on e-bay cheaper. You can download ExpressScribe for free to use with the foot pedal unless the company requires a different software program.
There is a free 30 day trial you
can download to your computer. But it is missing a couple of features, can't remember which ones
AVG says that it is only a 30 day free trial
:(
Flashtype trial
where is link??? didn't see
I think it would be likely a doc would prescribe a trial Rx although
EVERYONE does better attention-wise with stimulant medication, whether or not they have ADHD. That's why people drink coffee in the morning.
Since it is a trial version...
They may only allow you to play their pre-loaded files and not add your own. Why not try the Express Scribe player--it really is free. Link below.
Trial and error.
I check with former companies that I still have good relationships with. I check the job boards. I cold email "good" companies and asked about part time. I have 4 jobs at the moment, 3 transcription and I work at a vet 4 days a month for a couple hours just to take a break and do something I really enjoy.
They do have a free trial
Awesome updates. Install typical if you want to not configure a lot yourself. It is pretty easy and self explanatory if you do want to configure a lot yourself, however, and you can do a lot of different things with it. One tip, especially while working, I always disable the http traffic monitor. Slows things down even with massive memory. All the other things it does keeps your system very safe without that.
Thank you...truly trial by fire but once you get over it you're stronger. nm

Here is a link regarding the lawsuit from FEBRUARY, 2005 for which you will need Acrobat reader.

Here is MQ e-mail which was followed up by hard copy in US mail regarding MT lawsuit.

VIA Electronic and U.S. Mail
Dear Statutory Medical Transcriptionists:
W e would like to thank you for your continued service and support. We know that the key to our success is the people who work so hard for our customers everyday.
At MedQuist, we are determined to become the medical transcription provider of choice for statutory employees. Over the past several months, with your help and input, we have been working on developing a pay plan and comprehensive benefit program that will enable us to set the standard in the industry. We recently announced significant changes to our benefits program for full time employee transcriptionists and within the next few months, MedQuist will be announcing a new pay plan that will address the feedback we received from medical transcriptionists in response to our survey on pay issues.
As you may also know, MedQuist is currently responding to a lawsuit brought by three medical transcriptionists that was filed in response to certain publicity surrounding MedQuist's billing practices involving the AAMT billing unit of measure. MedQuist takes all allegations concerning its pay practices very seriously and will seek to address any concerns raised by the lawsuit. While we believe that the claims raised by the three transcriptionists appear to lack merit, we are diligently working on addressing this matter in order to best serve all of our valued medical transcriptionists.
To enable us to fully and appropriately respond to this, as well as other lawsuits currently pending against the company and governmental investigations, our lawyers from Winston & Strawn are required to collect documents. To ensure that you are completely informed about the materials they are seeking, we have attached a memorandum below regarding MedQuist's document retention and collections policy. Please review this document as soon as possible.
Once again, we would like to express our deep appreciation for your continued patience, cooperation and service to the company.
Very truly yours,
Frank Lavelle
President

The lawsuit is VERY MUCH ALIVE AND WELL and as some of the more sophisticated posters realize, it takes time for DISCOVERY allowing both sides to attack and defend their position. And MQ stock is STILL delisted as not even MQ can figure out cooked books based on illegal billing for which ANOTHER lawsuit is STILL pending against MQ by the clients. And as the MQ stock remains delisted for cooked books and illegal billing the shareholders in MQ stock have YET ANOTHER lawsuit still pending.
Shorthand has a free 30-day trial.
You can also download other people's dictionaries off the 'Net, but I chose to make my own according to my own abbreviation rules for ease of remembering. I think there are other websites to download from besides this one, but I can't find them right now. I tried Instant Text and used Word's Autotext feature, but I kept coming back to Shorthand. Just make sure you read the Help file and tutorial because otherwise, you'll miss out on a lot of valuable features.

FYI, you can download a 30 day trial of Shorthand
to use until you buy something.

You can download a free 30 day trial medical spellchecker at Sylvan. I've never used it, and I'm sure there are others out there, but these will get you by in a pinch.

This is where I downloaded the free 30 day trial from. It also says you can order a trial CD if you prefer. So far, I am enjoying playing with this expander. It seems like it offers a lot! Wish me luck..
I forgot to add that there is usually a 30-day free trial. nm

The trial version I had before did find and
that my Spybot and Ad-Aware missed. I had some nasty at the time that my trial version of Ewido took care of quite nicely that the others couldn't. Definitely worth the download.
So glad you posted the above, about the newer version (still had the old expired exe's in a file on my computer just as a reminder to think about buying it at some point).
Does anyone know if IT offers a trial period? sm
From the comments on this post and the post I placed yesterday, I am convinced I would like to try IT. I hate to spend $189 though and not like it but I do not see on their web site where they offer a money back trial period. Also, do you know if you download it and have it immediately or if it comes in the mail? Thanks to all who have offered their opinions, it really helps!
It does have a 30-day money-back trial. nm
.
Instant Text trial
Instant Text comes on a CD with a book.
There is no downloadable version on our website. What you buy is a User license that is not tied to one computer. As long as you are the only user you can have Instant Text on a backup computer or a laptop without any problem.
We offer an unconditional thirty day money back guarantee. No stocking fee.
