Don't you worry about all the lawsuits for downloading music?

My kids love to download, but once the law suits started against the computer owners I cut it out completely. I know they love music, I do myself, so share with me please, don't you worry about getting "caught?"

Believe me, like illegal music downloading, program downloading exists too! (nm)

Don't worry about it. In 5-6 years you'll have plenty to worry about!
A 10-year-old is never in a situation where anything can "happen," and they don't understand anything "happening" anyway. At this age they're only capable of "having a boyfriend" because that's what they see on TV - that's what the world "expects of us", to pair up and "like each other."
Her friends aren't talking about adult "things" to do in a "relationship" yet, and she doesn't even have those feelings, hormones, or needs yet so don't worry about it.
At 10, having a "boyfriend" is the equivalent to playing "dress up" or "make believe" and is just "sitting together in the cafeteria" at best.
Plus they move on to a new "boyfriend" in a week, a few weeks tops.
Relax, Mom. The part to worry about is yet to come and I wouldn't want to deal with that again for anything!
Best of luck and enjoy these years while you can.
No TV, no music, nothing. Music and TV cause me to daydream. nm

There are several lawsuits
against MQ. Has to do with financial issues. They were under federal investigation and kicked off the stock exchange. This happened about a year or so ago. A hospital in Florida has a suite against them regarding financial issues. It has to do with their way of counting lines, and hospital claims they were cheated out of millions. This was all big news a year or so ago.
I have worked part time for MQ for almost 2 years and I am also happy. I think it is possible they may get bought out at some point, depending on how the lawsuits go. Every so often someone posts here and its like mass hysteria and panic, but nothing ever happens. This is old news to most of us.
MQ-6 lawsuits
are there not 6 lawsuits against MQ?? are they all still pending??? i thought there was the lawsuit brought by the MT's, then 2 by hospitals, one by the woman who lost her job because she brought up the issue of sending medical records offshore, one form the state of MA and i thought another one
has any of these been settled?????
Upbeat the lawsuits for MQ please.
Thanks.
Upbeat the fact MQ was guilty enough to be delisted from trading on the stock market please.
Thanks.
Upbeat the fact that while MQ pays us, w/o us MQ would not be paid.
Thanks.
NOW, upbeat the fact that you can be boorish to other posters and lots of people don't like your attitude, upbeat that it may be.
Thanks.
Now comment on MQ business practices.
Thanks.
lawsuits have not affected my job
and probably never will. Lawsuits do not impune guilt any more than your comments do. Being delisted had nothing to do with guilt, but lack of certain paperwork being filed in a timely fashion, which also has a logical explanation, not that you care. Their billing problems are small in comparison to the company as a whole. Their business practices are great. How many other companies have people begging their jobs back? How many have employees for 10-15 yr or more? Maybe happy MQ'ers irritate you, but there are a lot more of us!!
yes its that one, it also says many lawsuits are pending
Is no one alarmed by this??
I see thru that big ole elephant and around it as do the people involved in lawsuits and SEC.
Very upbeat about MQ being FORCED to comply by law enforcement.
Fact: You didn't mention the lawsuits again.
New MT Class Action lawsuit (Myers v. MQ, 10/05/05) ... of course still pending:

MT Class Action lawsuit (Hoffman v. MQ, filed 11/29/04) ... still pending:

Shareholder lawsuit (Steiner v. MQ, filed 11/08/04) ... still pending:

The So. Broward Hospital District lawsuit (filed 09/09/04) ... still pending: http://www.corporate-ir.net/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=MEDQ&script=412&layout=-6&item_id=623344

Shareholder derivative lawsuit (Kanter v. Barella, MQ named 'nominal defendant,' filed 11/12/04) ... dismissed:
http://www.corporate-ir.net/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=MEDQ&script=411&layout=-6&item_id=763934 ........ (interestingly, no original press release on this one ... maybe because filed against Philips and MQ only named 'nominal defendant,' so why bother?)
I am part of three class action lawsuits.
Franklin-Templeton mutual fund apparently committed fraud while I was invested with them, Fen-Phen (the doctor's office notified me; sheduled me for a carotid ultrasound and had me come to a Radisson Hotel to meet with the attorneys) and MQ which I never really heard from but read about and this fraud took place while I worked there...
Bottom line is people should really not be getting money out of other peoples' pockets by fraudulent means.
Personally, I think lawsuits only give lawyers more money
nm
where there is smoke there is fire and these lawsuits are pretty much backed up by SEC.
Fraudulent billing, books that are cooked, are not claims that are made frivilously and are not accepted into a court of law without some merit. Watch and see. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it may be a duck. Apply that to everyone who deals with MQ involved in a lawsuit against them, MTs, Shareholders and Clients. Plus the delisting by SEC. Mighty suspicious huh? Not just one person or entity but three different ones - PLUS SEC.
Do you still have the CD's for downloading - sm
or backup of your old Windows system? If so, I'm fairly certain you could download that onto a new computer in addition to Vista, and run that instead 'til things clear up with the Vista problem at some MTSO's.
Either that, or hang onto your old PC to use for work only, and in the meantime you can buy the new PC and get used to Vistas and its quirks & differences, etc. without worrying about it messing up your work.
Help- What do I need for downloading?
I just had a Dr. ask me if I was able to download dictation. What does that mean, like from an email or something? I am new so what do I need to get? I downloaded express Scribe, but I don't even know how it works! I am ordering a foot pedal and headphones right now.
Downloading all folders...sm
The Olympus software that comes with the recorders always downloads every folder that has files in it, and you just need to make sure whatever file transfer method you use checks in all of the folders for new files.

Suggestions for PC, just used for downloading,
Try downloading this player
http://www.olympus-europa.com/consumer/2590_4694.htm
It should open the file and then maybe you can change the format of the file back to a wav file.
You might try downloading ExpressScribe.
I think it has a few test files when you first down load it that you could practice on.
Downloading dictations (sm)
If you key in alt-ctrl-Z while the first one is loading, it will prevent the other two from downloading from the queue. When you are ready to submit and do another file, you will need to key in that sequence again to allow the next one to come in.
downloading terror
Dawn you must have been the fly on the wall at my place. It's been monstrous downloading unfamiliar programs and some of those doctors are somebody's idea of a terrible joke - the kind you have to have a report of theirs in front of you so you can learn what they are saying. I have never tested online til now.. As for now, I am taking a day or 2 off of applying after I put stupid wrong info on an app, my own fault for being "frantic". Time to walk away for a day or so. I got told by one company they would call me when they have work, I felt it was a kind brush-off, and I cried myself to sleep.
H&A Timeclock - after downloading, how do you get it to work?

Virus after downloading DQS from website
Has anyone lately downloaded DQS from their website?
I down loaded two computers (PC and laptop). Both were
infected from a virus found in the WEBCORRECT.exe file.
Anyone else encounter this problem? My virus program isolated the virus and then I deleted the file. I forgot to write
down the virus, something like Trojan Backhorse? Not really sure.
Problems downloading Vianeta...
Has anyone had problems trying to download the Vianeta program onto their computer? I have been at this for over 3 weeks and am now facing the prospect of having to do a full system restore on my PC. I was wondering if anyone who uses this platform has had problems and if so, offer a solution other than a system restore.
Downloading medical speller ? (sm)
I googled medical dictionaries and spellers and I've found several. Some are free. What's the concensus? Are the free ones just as good as buying the Stedman's or something comparable? Opinions please.
Thanks. 
When does it occur? On boot up? downloading? other?

Downloading Editscript files
After you log in, it takes a while for several reports to load. When you get your first screen, you hit Alt U to get the first report. Hope this works for you.
Trouble downloading test.
I got an e-mail with an attachment for a typing test. When I opened the attachment I took about a second and screen went into my player but the job was not there to transcribe. I never had this happen before. I was resent the attachment and the same thing happened. I have had problems before with the foot pedal working but also had the voice portion so was still able to test. Any suggestions ? TIA.
Maybe downloading the newest version will help.
?
no, it's called illegal downloading - sm
and the key word is "illegal"
Downloading DSS files from TASP
I will need to download and play DSS files from a TASP system. My boss says I will need to purchase a player and program from Olympus to do this. Others have said I can use Bytescribe or Express Scribe with my USB pedal. My question is, if that's the case, how easy will it be to transfer from a TASP and play them on one of these players. My boss is making it out to be an impossible task. She said others have tried other programs and other foot pedals with either partial success or no success. Any help would be appreciated. The pedal package is $300 and who can afford that? Not I! Thanks and happy typing!
Downloading tests via the Internet for employment
Hello all. I was wondering if any of you download tests online when attempting to work for someone advertising here on the job boards. I just feel a little squimish. I'm being instructed to go to the Start Menu, right click, and type in the file name, etc. and then it takes me out to it online. Does this see like a safe thing to do? It doesn't mean anything is going on my PC is it when I type in the file name and password and end up at a site through Internet Explorer. Sorry for my ignorance or if I'm not making sense.. I just use my computer for a lot of confidential info, etc. and don't want a complete stranger onboard. Any help, suggestions, etc. would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
downloading free word program
has anyone ever used open office to download word so a test can be taken? I rent a computer from my company and I know I probably should not do this. My question is would they know if this is being done? Thank you.
downloading dictation versus telephone
ive been transcribing 220-250 lines per hour using the following: I dial into the telephone system using a Dictaphone to access the dictations and use Persona Client and Telnet software. It is all just straight typing, the dictation is waiting for me as I don't have to download nething. I get paid by minutes dictated. For example, if I transcribe 1 hour of dictation it would equal 600 lines. 600 lines at 8 cpl = 48.00. I'm lookin elsewhere for employment, and I'm worried about the downloading of dictations (which seems most are doing now-a-days) slowing my daily production down. Does anyone seem to be more/less productive as far as using a telephone to access dictations as opposed to downloading. Also, is there a big difference between getting paid per 65 character line or by minutes dictated. TY
Downloading Java didn't work
So I deleted it again like they told me to do in the beginning. Any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
Need Testing Help - Downloading Voice Files
I am taking a transcription test and I have downloaded the voice files on my desktop. I am trying to drag them into Express Scribe but it isn't working. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!
I already know the details, hubby downloading porn while wife
downloading a tabbed browser will solve that problem
.
You can only have one Outlook Express open and downloading emails at a time. If have both the SM
laptop and the PC trying to download email for the same address, you are going to have one downloading some and the other downloading whatever comes in after the first computer downloads, make sense? That's why you are only getting part of your email on one and part on the other. You have two different machines trying to download the same emails.
If you set both Outlook Express programs set up the exact same way on each computer, then both will work, but not at the same time.
Hope that makes sense.
Company requested not downloading Vista as it will not work with our program.
.
How about downloading a trial version of Wavplayer from Bytescribe (or other wav player)....sm
and see if the .dvf files will work. That could help isolate some of the problem. Can you get them to play in Media Player?
Express Scribe is GREAT for downloading sound files for testing for different companies!
Express Scribe Transcription Playback Software
This software works as a transcriber that downloads into your computer and allows you to receive files and use your footpedal. I have used it a lot when applying for jobs and testing, especially because I can then use my footpedal and not my keyboard to advance the sound files. This is a free download too, so use it if you have to. I highly recommend it.....
This is the link for the site to download it for free -

music
I am a child of the 80's and felt like I couldn't be burdened with finding gigs. I am an accomplished pianist (A little rusty at 43) but I love music where there is only piano playing. Does DH like Elton John, Billy Joel, (ok - stretch -KC & JoJo's version of Lately), and Stevie Wonder. Nothing like a man and his piano.
Can't get into her music?
I don't know why not. Her and Mellancamp sound just as bad.
Aah, music...
 Taking a break. Listening to some tunes to relax. I think some other people should too. Anyone ever heard of Jill Scott or Erykah Badu? Common? 
Yay! Me too! MUSIC!
I agree with that, music makes my world so much brighter! I throw on some Stevie Wonder and I can't help but cheer up!
Music
Yep, I love the 50's-60's music. Makes me want to move.
music sm
I have a 5-disc CD changer that goes all day while I am working. All music types. I love it! Need the extra noise!
music
I like total quiet while transcribing. But if I'm doing some other kind of "busy" work in my office like filing or more of a data-entry-type job I can do mindlessly, I find that some classical, light jazz or easy-listening type music helps me be more productive.
What kind of music? nm
