I had this problem just after Christmas when I got a new computer and downloaded ExpressScribe. After searching through their forums, I found out that a lot of people were having a problem, there was some glitch in the program, and everyone was going back and downloading the previous version, which resolved the problem. This worked for me as well. Good luck.

ExpressScribe
I too had a problem months ago and it froze up. I spoke to the company. They said it was because I had too many other programs running and using too much RAM, that it did not leave enuf for EXS. to work properly. They even suggested adding more RAM. They said EXS requires a certain amount of RAM, etc., to function appropriately. Could this be part of your problem too?
ExpressScribe
Yes, I have been using it for almost a year now and have never had any problems.
Anything other than ExpressScribe?
Am I the only one that doesn't like ExpressScribe? The audio always sounds very digitized to me. Are there any other better programs out there?
ExpressScribe
Hi. Just an opinion, but why don't you try ExpressScribe first and see if that meets your needs? It is free and it is as good, as far as I can tell. You may have to buy a foot pedal that will work with it, or may not. Mine does not. Try the keyboard controls though and see what you think.
An ExpressScribe Question
How do you set the backspace when I lift my foot off the pedal? Mine is not backspacing at all and I can't' figure out how to set it. Thanks.

a lot of these programs were not ready for Vista yet. I would have waited at least a year before buying Vista due to just that reason. Personally maybe you should have found out of ExpressScribe was compatible with Vista prior to buying the laptop with it preinstalled. It would have saved a lot of hassle.
You might try downloading ExpressScribe.
I think it has a few test files when you first down load it that you could practice on.
expressScribe/Quicktime sm
I downloaded ExpressScribe for work but I also have QuickTime so I can use ITunes. The QuickTime seems to over-ride the ExpressScribe and play the audio files which are dictation. I want to use the ExpressScribe so I can use my foot pedal. When I uninstall QuickTime ExpressScribe works, when I reinstall QuickTime only QuickTime works. So QuickTime must be set to default or something.
Anybody know how I can get both these to work or is there another player that will work with the USB footpedal to play the dictations but still allow QuickTime on the computer for other stuff?
Thanks
ExpressScribe hot keys
If you open the ExpressScribe and go to control, then hot key set up you can make it work by assigning keys. I work in MS Word and was using F5 to open files, but when I have the ExpressScribe reduced and hit F5 it opens the ExpressScribe window instead of my Word file. I just assigned a different key to open and close the ExpressScribe. You can also create a new one to assign a file to "done" so you don't have to use your mouse.
ExpressScribe question...sm
I am taking a test for a part time job. It is required to download ExpressScribe to take the test. I also had to install some additional files so that ExpressScibe would recognize .sri files. I did this also. Well when I go to play the file on there there is nothing, and it says under duration of file: 00:00 minutes. It is like the file has nothing on it. Did I do something wrong or is that file corrupated or what?
ExpressScribe is locking up my
Has anyone had this happened to you lately? I have been Express Scribe for years and never had any issues with it. About 2 or 3 weeks ago ES started making my computer run really really really slow. I checked the Task Manager and it says that ES is making my computer run at 100%. Why is this? If I close ES everything runs fine. I contactd tech support 3 times but they have never gotten back to me. I even uninstalled it and reinstalled it and that didn't work either. What should I do? Are there other free transcription audio players out there?
Thanks so much in advance
You can download ExpressScribe for free.
Do a Google search for the URL. You can use your keyboard to control the dictation to do testing.
I use Dictaphone ExText with ExpressScribe.

ExpressScribe and audio files
Thanks for your reply. I have used ExpressScribe before, but my predicament is that I need something that will play dictation that has been burned onto a CD. My CD-RW drive is drive D, and I do not know how to get ExpressScribe to load the dictation that is in that drive. Can anyone help?
ExpressScribe - how do I delete files?
How do I delete old audio files from ExpressScribe? These are the ones that I can go and recover if I've deleted from my main screen but they are still backed up. I've got a ton and don't need to keep any of them - they are just taking up memory space. Anyone know?
How to get ExpressScribe to pick up FTP files???
Everytime I click on the file to play it pulls up window media player and it gives me an error. How do I get Express Scribe to play the files?
Question about ExpressScribe & Vista
My mother uses ExpressScribe and she has recently upgraded to Vista. She is still able to get ExpressScribe to work but her serial foot pedal no longer works. We purchased an adapter, but haven't had any success getting it to work with Vista.
Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shona
If you got the file there, then you should be able to download ExpressScribe and load it into

I use an Infinity and it works fine with ExpressScribe. (nm)

If a service wants you to use GearPlayer, though, you can't substitute with ExpressScribe. nm

ExpressScribe-Computer running slow
My ExpressScribe is making my computer run really really slow and in the task manager it is at 100%. When I close it, my computer works fine? How do I fix this? Thanks
Check out ExpressScribe. There is a way with them and it is free. Microcassettes also.

Anyone know if a pedal with Dictaphone adapter will work with ExpressScribe?
Thanks !!!
Gearplayer, Cyberplayer, ExpressScribe,Transcription Buddy, Stop/Start questions
When you work for yourself which voice player do you prefer? I have tried all of the above players and all of them seem to distort the voice when you slow it down. Why can't these players slow down files like the platforms MTSOs use?
Bringing up ExpressScribe pedal question again. Does anyone have 9-pin Infinity pedal on a USB?
