Lots of instrumental, classical and new age stuff. Have you played TyperShark on popcap.com yet?

How to listen to music on CPU - sm
Am looking for a site that allows you to listen to a track or so on an album/CD without downloading it. Any ideas? Thank you.
I listen to my favorite music.

Do you listen to music while you transcribe?

I only have mine to listen to music. I don't give a toot about videos, so I have

I meant bought. Hard to type and listen to the music at the same time.

My hubs got one at the music store that he uses while playing guitar. Or maybe a furniture store. Or

I used Nationwide to move my piano from Griffin, Georgia, ... sm
to Iowa. It only cost $500 for the move, but they did everything. It was worth it to me to shell out the $500. I am sure it would be much less for what you are talking about. Nationwide really treated me very well, and were very friendly on both ends of the move.
Just pretend that....
you work on an hourly basis and have a production minimum for the pay period, as I do. If I don't stay focused and work my shift, I'm fired within a week. I am a hospital employee and have to work when I'm suppose to be working, no different than a nurse or any other employee. Even though I'm at home, it doesn't matter. Play mental games with yourself, it's worth a try.
There are also those that pretend to be dumb so they don't have to. sm
And those that call in sick every other day, that if they were really sick that often, they should be in nursing home.
Needless to say, I got out of supervising because I did not want to hate people anymore, and I could be petty like everybody else and get away with it like everybody else.
I've got wounds to nurse...
I am always so tempted to pretend to buy into it
and string them along thinking they have a catch. Someone did that and once and posted all the emails they had sent back and forth somewhere- they were hysterical.
No TV, no music, nothing. Music and TV cause me to daydream. nm

she also used to pretend to faint when she didn't get her way sm
or she would actually sit there and cry and cry and cry like a 2 year old.
She has since passed away, but I would give anything for one more day with her!
You're very very lucky - enjoy your beagle!!!
Honey, it is okay...you don't have to pretend anymore...
We don't even know you so you don't have to put up a front!!
Pretend like they are all naked (Johnnie Carson did this). NM

No; I'm one of the itty bitties but it's fun to pretend! Lol. - No Message

Good point... Let me change that to, "like to pretend they are something

Playing CD-R
Do you have a photography program, such as Adobe Photoshop, etc.? In order for me to view my photo CDs, I have to open them through my Photoshop program.
Try this:
1. Put your CD in the computer.
2. Open your photo program. There should be a choice, such as "Get Picture", etc. Click on that.
3. You should then have some sort of choice of where to get the picture FROM, such as "Folder", "Drive", "CD", etc. etc. If one of the choices is from your CD, or the drive your CD is in (mine is "E", yours may be different), click on that.
4. If that works, you should then have a list of folders, or a list of picture titles, or whatever. If you click on a folder or picture name, it SHOULD open it in your photo software.
If I just want to view stuff QUICKLY, I invested in a wonderful software program called "Quick View Plus" from Inso Corporation. I love it because it really IS fast, and it'll open just about anything. You may be able to find it at:

You should try playing around with those
settings. In order to move my screen to the right or to the left, I have to push 1 button in to tell it whether I want it go vertical or horizontal and then push the other button to adjust that way.
Since your screen didn't reset when you rebooted, I would have to think the problem is with the monitor itself, i.e. adjust your settings or you have a blackout, which I think means you would have to replace it.
Have you visited the monitor company's website for troubleshooting tips and how to work those settings. There may be free tech support available there.
Your mother was right - but not playing the
sisters games and not allowing her to use you for holidays does not mean you don't love her.
Not playing fair-other ad too
Seems to me moderators don't play fair here. Another "job" ad has been posted since 6/17 with NOBODY objecting to it.
Look for ad by NSDExpress on job seekers
Over 1200+ lookers but NOT banned. Guess one has to funnel $ to the moderater to get posted on this board.
And that was after the guy playing a video game
..
Thanks for the info. I have no idea why he is playing
these games when he just sent an e-mail stating everything is now under control. It is just so sad that they take something that has the potential to be good and turn it and distort it and make it ugly. If in your search you run into Davis Transcription, please beware. They operate in a similar manner and in the end...you will pay for it. Good luck!
Seriously, I think it's Bill Cosby playing...
mind games with us because I do the same thing with Jello! I never make it, but I can say I have at least 3 or more boxes of the pudding and the Jello at all times. My children often see it and beg me to make it. What's the deal? Really, I think it's a leftover 'Bill Cosby' thing for me. I don't know what makes me buy it, I don't even like it. It's an illness. I'm sure of it.
is he playing this on your work computer? (sm)
make a password for the computer. I don't agree with be glad it's just video games -- addictions are addictions and can affect the family life just as bad as alcohol, porn or any other bad addiction.
If he's ignoring his family due to the games and it's creating a problem, then it IS a problem. I'm so fortunate in that my DH doesn't even know how to turn on a computer. He's never had an interest.
Password protect the computer. Tell him it's off limits. He will get used to not playing anymore.
for playing test file.........sm
when you click on the attachment, you should see open, save, or run. You could save it to your desktop and then open it with Express Scribe, if you have it. Right click on test file, you should see 'open with' with some options. If you have Express Scribe, this should be one of them. Media player or other media players will play it, but not with a pedal, so Express Scribe is your best bet. Good luck!
Were you playing dimes, dollars, or what ?
Am going in the next couple of months, and how much had you spent in machines?

I use Start/Stop.
Billy Ray is very hunky playing that doctor...

Hope everyone has a wonderful turkey day.
Cirie has done a wonderful job playing the game.
I'm thinking if anyone else keeps her that she could win. They all talked about getting her out way back at the beginning, but she's gotten this far. GO CIRIE!!!
Terry has done a great job getting the immunity to keep himself in the game, and we all know he has the idol for extra immunity, but I do believe he's getting cocky and that rubs me the wrong way. He'll definitely be around awhile, but can he make it to the end?
If the other two, Aris and Danielle(?) got to the end, everyone would have a hard time choosing who should get the money, so they certainly should stick to working together, don't ya think?
I always have satellite radio playing in the background. sm
There's a good variety of relaxing music. I have it on even when I'm not transcribing.
I think it also relaxes my dogs cause they sure sleep well when it's on:)
Express Scribe not playing end of dictation?
Every once in a while I get a file that Express Scribe can't play the last 2-4 minutes of. It appears to be playing, but the sound cuts out. When I send the reports to QA, they say they can hear the whole file fine. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there something wrong on my end? I checked the NCH website and others have posted this same problem but have received no responses so I am trying here instead. I also tried to play the file in Windows Media and it stops at the same point, but says it can't play the file. I am just confused why QA can get it to play, but I cannot.
Playing flute/picc in county orchestra
It's the best stereo system in the world, sitting right in the middle of a live orchestra!

Are you playing it thru Express Scribe using a foot pedal? nm

I cannot stand people playing the race card
This is no race issue on the View.......this is merely Star *pulling* the race card.......
Won't miss her in the least..........
Look through the Help section in it and just start opening up all the tabs and playing

It's kinda like playing a gameshow every day! Beat That Production Limit!
How do you break a kitten from chewing on and playing with your cords and wires? I just got my
daughter a kitten. I haven't had a cat since I was a kid. I'm kind of a dog person. The darn thing keeps playing with all the cords and wires under my desk and jumping on my desk and walking on my C-phone and keyboard and knocking stuff off my desk. I'm losing my mind! He's very playful and he is very rough. He is always attacking my feet while I'm working and not to sound like a baby, but it really hurts! I put him in "time-out" by putting him in a separate room and shutting the door for like 10 or 15 minutes, but he just goes right back to his bad behavior. It's definitely not like training a dog!
Help me please! My line count is suffering on account of his silly cat and I don't think my boss is going to buy my cat as a legitmate excuse!
I threw my back out playing dodge ball in 2nd grade. nm

It depends on what kind of voice files you're playing.
The sound on Express Scribe is terrible. I think it's worth it to find a player that plays your voice files with good sound. If you use wav files, a Bytescribe wav player would be excellent (get the dongle version so you get unlimited installs). They also have a version that converts DSS to wav. I complained about the DSS files not sounding clean on speed up and slow down so they told me about another version they have. If you have a Bytescrive wav player, it's already on your computer. Of if you're using DSS files you could also use a DSS player. (I've never tried them).
Do U keep playing with the ports and the types of foot pedals? An odd pedal might not work, like a

It should stop the play when you lift your foot from the pedal. Don't think it keeps playing othe

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.
