I don't think the poster knew about the most recent upgrade.
I had also read about the start/stop pedal being frustrating due to it not stopping immediately. I did find one at Dictran that said exclusively for InScribe, but there are two types there, so that was also confusing!

will Infinity pedal work with Inscribe?
I'm switching companies and foot pedals and don't understand. I'll be using Emdat-Inscribe, and the pedal I have is an Infinity USB1. Are these compatible? I've done what it says to do on the site for other pedals and it still won't work. Does anyone know if this Inifinity foot pedal will work with Inscribe?
If the latest version, post below says regular Infinity pedal will not work and cannot use outside p
I have the Infinity, have found it compatible with just about everything, it is great!.....NM

Hmm, my earlier post, which was quite polite, is gone now.
We'll be having DEER STEAK kabobs for dinner tonight, though!!!!! MMMMM, Bambi on a skewer dripping with BBQ sauce. 
sorry.."an" earlier post...nm

Me, too. I was going to post earlier, but didn't
have the energy. I had the twitching thumb first about a year ago, now aches and pains every week that move or migrate all over, too. Numb legs, butt that kills me - seriously, I nearly cry when I sit down or stand up. Then it moves to my neck, or shoulders, and then back to legs. It is horrible pain, and I'm getting really worried that I'm not going to hold up for this job much longer. Its so pathetic - sitting in a chair and falling apart. I was wondering if it could be fibromyalgia-type symptoms. Horrible. You are not alone! I have also bought so many ergonomic things - chair, keyboard, mouse "platform", and forget it. Oh yes, even lighting, and I still am in pain all over the second I sit down in this chair. 
I meant to answer your post earlier, but I've been trying to catch up on
housework before school starts. I cannot WAIT for school to start. I'm so tired of the kids' bickering and attitudes this summer. They've taken to ignoring me whenever I ask them to do anything. I threaten them with grounding, loss of privileges, or slave duty. Then they bicker about who did more chores or who made the mess to begin with. Instead of cleaning up after them, I leave it sit until their Dad gets home. If they don't want to listen to me, they'll darn well listen to him.
They are usually really good kids. I think it's mostly cabin fever because a lot of their friends went on vacation or stayed with their biological Dads for the summer. The kids are so bored. I'm just so tired of it every summer. I have all these grand plans for finishing work early and doing something fun each day, but I get the same garbage every year. Too many kids over here, too many interruptions, too much bickering, too much mess.
Let me tell you, I'm celebrating on the first day of school. I'm going to the coffee shop and buying a big mocha latte. Then I'm going to sit there all by myself and read a book. On the way home, I'm grabbing lunch for myself and watching a chick flick by myself. No McDonalds either.
Attn: MTSO - re: your earlier post for a reliable MT that was removed
I replied to your earlier post, as did a couple of other MTs, however, now I see that your message has been removed.
I just wanted to try to touch base with you again.
If you are still looking for help and would like to contact me you can do so via replying via email to this post.
Thanks....
I wonder why your post was removed before?? Moderator, info?
have never been able to get my Infinity pedal to work...
with Express Scribe. It's a pain, but I've just used the manual controls.
Also, if you can switch the hours you work, get up earlier,
and work after he goes to bed. Make the time for him while he's young. In about 3-5 years he'll be less worried about you working and wanting to spend time with you, so enjoy him while he's young cuz it doesn't last long. :)
Does your Infinity pedal work with DocQscribe?
Just wondering if your Infinity foot pedal works in DocQscribe? Does it automatically recognise it?
My friend has a footpedal that a former employee of Medquist was using, and went to use it as a new employee with MedQuist and it won't work now. It works in Express Scribe perfectly. MedQuist says you have to rent one from them and they won't "troubleshoot" problems with the pedal since it wasn't purchased through them......(even though it was by this former employee).
Any suggestions?
A regular Infinity USB pedal should work with their system. Why not ask them for sure? nm

Anyone work for Inscribe in Kentuckey?
I was just wondering how the process went when being hired? I was told to get my paper work back and then they would call me and set up for an installment appointment, but it has been several days and I haven't heart anything. Is that just how the process is or should I be worried? Thanks!
Anyone work for InScribe in Kentucky. nm

Express Scribe and pedal DO work with InScribe upgrade
That is not the case with me. I just upgraded to 4.91 and am still using Express Scribe and it's working fine. I do have an Infinity USB pedal. I do, however, have Windows XP or ME (I never remember which - XP I think) and not Vista. The tech guy at InScribe said some people have problems with the upgrade of 4.91 and Express Scribe with Vista. They have special directions on their download site for Vista users. Hope this helps someone. The new upgrade looks good, though I've not had a good run with it yet.
$32/hour? You said $36/hour on an earlier post. Either way would be great. n/m

What I have found according to your post
is doing VR I am picking up wrong spelling of words everywhere, in the paper, television news, books, drives me crazy sorta. I find by doing editing my eyes are more accustomed to seeing errors everywhere. I do not know about hot keys because I never use them and been doing VR now for about 4 years.
Exactly! LOL! I found that post pretty comical myself..

I found the work!!!!!!!!!!
I just heard what happened to the work - Tonya Wimberly-Huger ate it! LOL! LOL! LOL!
What I have found to work the best, is to put
a standard-size bed pillow in my lap (prop it against desk or keyboard tray) and that helps me to sit back with my back against the chair. I tend to lean forward a bit. You also might want to get something to put under your feet like a thick phone book, an old wooden Coke box, or something similar. This tends to make you sit straighter too. I've tried pillows and that butterfly shaped cushion between me and my chair and they just weren't comfortable.
I found this in the archives. I need to try it myself to see if it will work. sm

evacuee - just found work at library
Hello!
Hope I am doing this right. Do not know how to reply to posts but here goes -
Library down the street from where I am staying has wireless internet. They said I could stay there all day. Going to by a lap top tonight!!!! Praise the Lord!!!
Called Medquist. My supervisor and the main office I am from - kind of overwhelmed with calls from evacuees and their e-mails.
Talked to payroll. VEry helpful. Said I could use vacation time for day I missed. Medquist is not THAT bad!!!

I found out the hard way that first in always have the work. Supervisor sm
doesn't care what time I work. As was stated to me first come first serve.
Stopped getting work in the middle of Dec and found a new job.. however he
There are some who work locally to the office. Has anyone asked them if the office is open? I live in a different state. What a royal mess!
Or why not hire an IC to work on the account under you? You found it
and it is your reputation and bidding that sealed the account, why not ask IC's to BID on it. You might find somebody who loves derm work and wants the money. Even if you only make 1-2 cpl over your IC it adds up.
Mistakes found in other people's work
I work on a platform where we can pull up previously-transcribed reports for samples. I have worked for this company for about 7 months now and have never had a QA done on my work. I like to know if I am doing something wrong or if there is a better/easier way of doing things. While going through some reports to get samples I have noticed things that are not that big a deal, but more along the line of somebody padding their lines, i.e., in the laboratory section writing out the number seventeen, in extremity examination writing out plus-two pedal pulses, cranial nerves two through twelve, things like this. Also, things like sclerae IS instead of are. Our accounts are not verbatim.
I guess my question is what would most of you do, leave it alone or say something about it? I have left it alone for this long, but it just doesn't sit well with me. I'm sure I do things that are wrong too and that is why I wouldn't mind getting reviewed every now and then to ensure consistency and quality. Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions.
I've found you have to work more than 8 hours a day to
If I had to stick to an 8-hour time period, I couldn't afford to continue.
No flame here - think it's great you found something that will work for you plus get clothes clea

I used to work for a hospital that used Meditech and we found the line counts to be inconsistent. SM
I used to be a supervisor and was trying to find a way to monitor productivity on Meditech and found that line counts fluctuated greatly! I did all kinds of comparisons - typed reports in word and counted the lines in word with MP Count and then compared it with Meditech and there was sometimes near a 200 line discrepancy at the end of the day. Then we found that running a line count twice in Meditech on the same MT and same reports would get us two different numbers with about 20 lines difference.
Meditech is just not MT friendly, but unfortunately MTs are at the bottom of the list of considerations when choosing an EMR system. I gave up and started keeping track of minutes of dictation.

I've found this resource pretty useful for rehab work. Link inside.
Have this as one of my bookmarks - found this handy whilst handling rehab work. Hope this helps!

someone earlier was referring
to the TV show, The Apprentice, with Donald Trump. That's the only postI've seen on here regarding apprentice.
Question about earlier
post. I see that one of you would not give your son's SS# to the high school. How would this work if you were registering your child for Kindergarten? They told me it was the law that they had to have it. Is that not true?
They were there earlier this morning.

Somewhere on this board earlier in the
past 1 to 2 weeks someone wrote that they had gotten the Antivirus 2009/2008 on their computer and that McAfee now has a service where they will dial in on your computer and repair it for $40 to $80 for viruses, spyware, hijackers, etc.; which is a lot cheaper than taking it in to a repair shop and dropping it off. I am not sure if you have to have a subscription or now to McAfee for them to do this, but would be worth checking out.

I use an Infinity USB. Mine doesn't seem that way, but I've used it a long long time. Maybe it's just because your pedal is new? I can vaguely remember when I started using the one I use now thinking the same thing you're saying, however.
i just use an infinity one.

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed. That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups. Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge. Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful. Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges. You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy. You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now. I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids. My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play. Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance. Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem. But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life. Know what I mean?
It went up to $2.29 yesterday, was $2.16 earlier this week...
I'm glad I work at home!
If it worked earlier in the document SM
the paintbrush on the toolbar - highlight a paragraph (including the paragraph mark itself) that DOES work, click painter, then click in the paragraph you want to reformat and it should add that tab (as well as any other embedded formatting in the paragraph you copied from).
thanks, you're right and right -- what's getting up three minutes earlier? (nm)

Okay...um, earlier when you said you had accounts from Haiti.
I thought you meant you actually had clients from Haiti, like in the country Haiti. Boy am I feeling really dumb right now! LOL!
I responded earlier to this poster
I am also an IC for a company I started with in March and confused as to why I would need a credit card for business purchases, etc.
and that I am not to worry about paying quartly? My accountant told me to do this and that was it.
I have only been taking 20% out of my pay and sending it in to the U.S. Treasury. Is that wrong? It sounds like I should be doing a lot more. A little confused and nervous.
I had the same problem for a short while earlier in the day
