them in Express Scribe and you can set your footpedal up. I forget where the downloaded files go, can't remember if you can put them where you want them but I would have to search for them to download to Express Scribe - maybe someone else can tell you how. It is much better than what you are doing.

I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
You can't download it free any more. You have to buy it now. NM

AVG and their free download is as good as anything else out there.
anything else out there.
Download the free AVG from Grisoft.com.
It finds viruses that Norton misses.

Do a Google search for the URL. You can use your keyboard to control the dictation to do testing.
Free meditech download..sm
There was a site about 8 months or so ago that we would go to and we were able to download the Meditech program for free. Once you have the meditech, you need your own clients numbers to access the modem, but the program itself was not a security issue. I was just wondering if anyone knew of another site with the download.

How do I download free MP Count?

You can download abacus free. You just have
to delete this line that says: Buy me so you can get rid of this annoying line (or something like that). It counts your lines for you and then creates an invoice. Looks professional. Hope this helps.
download Malwarebytes....it's free and......
I had something like that too awhile ago. Because of this "thing," I had a hard time staying on any website, let alone trying to download Malwarebytes. But I kept trying and finally, the next day, I was able to get it downloaded and ran. It took the problem away and saved me a huge headache. This "thing" was something like Spyware 2008, I just can't remember exactly. I just know it said something about spyware and everytime I tried to go to a site, it would pop up and I couldn't do anything at all. Somehow, though, I managed to bring up Malwarebytes and inbetween closing the spyware thing and its popping up again, I got Malwarebytes loaded. I also have McAffe, AdAware and Spybot but they didn't stop this thing.
One thing you need to do, if you don't already, is update your antispyware and adware protection. Do it at least once a week because new bugs are coming out constantly. I even run an update on McAffee even though I think it's supposed to do it automatically, just to be safe.
Right now I have some stupid "MywayWebSearch" or something like that and I cannot get rid of no matter what I do. Besides the 3 listed above, I even ran SuperAntispyware and Spyware Blaster and still can't get rid of it! I think I have managed to quarantine it though, cuz it doesn't seem to be causing the havoc anymore. These are all Free, by the way, and they do keep my computer pretty clean for the most part. I run scans every couple of days, and do the other maintenance stuff.
Good luck to you and give these things a try before you spend money. If they don't work, nothing lost, if they do.... money saved!

Download ShortHand for a free trial.
Of all the expanders I've tried, it's been the easiest to learn and use. Good graphic user interface, too. Lots of features. Read the help file and manual because there are a lot of neat features I didn't even know about until I read about them.
http://www65.pair.com/lim/shorthand/dnload.html
You can download the free 30-day trial of Shorthand here.
http://www.pcshorthand.com/dnload.html
Then it's $99.95 to purchase it at the end of the free trial, but it pays for itself and is really easy to use. That'll give you a month to save up the money for it. My stats vary on it anywhere from 26% to 67% depending on my dictator.

You can download Express Scribe for free, but I would
suggest waiting on the foot pedal. If you need to do voice files for testing you can using hot keys - slower, but saves you from buying something that will stay in the closet. You may need a C-phone but I never heard of a company providing one. Sometimes the company will provide a foot pedal too.
Use Abacus. You can download for free. Very accurate. nm

Not sure if it does the files you need but a quick check of their program will tell you. Google it.
You can download Express Scribe for free.
This program has programmed hot keys (the F keys) to do the same things a foot pedal would. A foot pedal does make the going easier. You could try ebay or do a Google search to find a foot pedal that is within your price range.
Anyone know where I can get the old MPCount software that was a free download?
I know that it is now part of MPTools or something like that and you have to pay for it, but I just want the old version.
Download eTrust EZ Antivirus. Free, and it got rid of my spyware.

There's a free utility you can download to add multiple AutoText ... sm
entries at one time, but you have to format the list manually in a Word document before you can run the macro to upload. The utility only works in versions 2000 to 2003. You would create a 2-column table with your entry name in column 1 and your text in column 2, then run the macro. You can take a pre-made list and convert that to a table, but it's still going to take some manual editing on your part to format the list. It's a lot of work either way. You can find the utility here:
autotextloader2.zip Utility for loading a large number of AutoText entries into a template. http://jay-freedman.info/
ABCZ lists you can purchase are made to work with ShortHand and Instant Text only. Google Jon Knowles or ABCZ lists.
I use ShortCut. You can download a free demo version at sylvansoft.com. nm

try express scribe you can download for free. what type file is it?nm
;
Download FTP SERVER software (it can be found free). Then have the docs
upload their files to YOUR server. There is no cost to you or the doc to do this. Someone does have to pay for the recorder, which I have chosen to do for 2 docs. The other one purchases his own when needed (twice in 7 years). One picks up files on FTP server. The other 2 still want theirs printed. Since they are not in same city, I mail them via snail mail and they are happy with that. I also do fax any stat reports to them at no charge simply because I have unlimited long distance.
There is a free download line counter called Abacus and I have used
that program to count my lines, which works real well. I just always used a program to do it. It's pretty user friendly and you can try it for free and see if you like it.
It's an e-zine that you download for free and read. It's still quarterly. Just in case anyon

You can also download (free) a product called Cool Timer from CNet.
You can set it to act like a stopwatch or to countdown time. I use it all the time and it has helped me immensely. I just have it open all the time on my toolbar. http://www.download.com/Cool-Timer/3000-2350_4-10062255.html

job application
Once upon a time I held the credentials of RHIT,but let that lapse. I am filling out a job application for a transcription job. Do I leave it in? Leave it out? Put in the years I was accredited? Thanks.
no, but had to on an application
and only the last 4.
Yes. I went and filled out an application at a
temporary company and got called for a job in a short while. I kept my MT position.
For about 3 days I did the whole dress up in pantyhose and heels thing, drive to work, do monotonous tasks, etc. and I was cured. It was a good experience. It made me appreciate working at home again. Anytime I get fed up again, I just remember the details of what it was like to work in the office for that temp job and other office jobs I've had, and I'm much more satisfied with my boring at home job.
Application process
Thanks, MTMommy, for your encouragement. I will do that from now on.
Application process
My apologies if posting on wrong forum, but I am beginning to get paranoid and am wondering if I'm not doing something correctly. When I respond to an ad on MT Stars, I click on the "Apply now" button, fill out the boxes appropriately with MY email address, etc., and then click "Submit." It tells me it has sent the message to the "Desired recipient" (employer). Am I doing this correctly? I have applied for so many positions, am an experienced radiology MT with 30 years' experience, and am having a hard time accepting the fact that absolutely no one is responding to my applications. I've tried Keystrokes (needed 15 MTs for rad) and others. I check every hour to see what new ads are posted and respond within that time frame. I know it can take a couple of weeks or longer to hear anything, but when I hear that others hear back the next day I have to wonder if I'm just not performing the application process correctly. Any feedback would be appreciated. I'm getting worried and cannot find work. Thanks.
application process...
You need to go directly to the websites of different employers. Spheris.com medquist.com, transcend.com, etc. Then you can fill out an application directly from their site. You are a dream for any medical transcription company, being that you have 30 years experience. Don't get bummed out. I promise you will find something. Just go directly to the employer's website's.
CMT application questions
After so many years of transcribing, I am going to take the final step by taking the CMT exam. When I went online to schedule a test date, there were options for CMT exam A, exam B, and exam C. The website doesn't explain the difference between the 3 tests. Does anyone out there know? Also, is there any other way to get a discount (besides being an AAMT member)?
Noritate cream which is once a day application...
I take Tetracycline 500 mg twice a week and was put on a cream that had to be applied twice a day. That was impossible for me!! So, my family doctor told me about a cream, Noritate which is applied once a day. The tetracycline is good for breakouts, but I don't have to take it every day. The cream can be put on once a day, at night. So this works out pretty well for me. Good luck!!
Metroscript is best TASP for this application
www.metroscript.com
I liked Vianeta, too. In our application we could work offline, I do believe.
Some days, I wish we had Vianeta back again....
There were some downsides, especially if you had to get in on the management/QA side, but as an MT it was dandy.
opting out of that is part of the membership application.
USATasp is application service provider.
TASP - Stands for "Transcription Application Service Provider". They aren't the MTSO, but providing Voice and Text solutions/platforms to MTSOs to utilize.
P.S. USATasp is the subsidiary of MTStars :)
Transcription Application Service Provider.
IOW the smart computer folks who deal with the headaches! :)
They provide HIPAA complaint file hosting/ftp set up for MTs. Some charge per line, other charge per month, it just varies. Some provide a call in dictation service and charge per minute. It's great if you have no capital in invest in equipment. :)
I'm not sure but I think it's what some MTs refer to as a platform?
ES is not a transcription application; it is an audio playback app.
ES provides the means by which to obtain and play audio files. You actually transcribe these in any text-editing application.
Some text-editing apps such as Word have provision for counting production such as characters, words, lines, etc. Or, you can use a third app such as Sylcount for the counting function.
Questions like these should really be directed to your supervisor for the best answers.
Dictaphone Word Client Application
Hi everyone! I have a question that I need answered as quickly as possible. I have the opportunity for a job but it requires use of a Dictaphone Word Client Application. I've used a Dictaphone before and then just typed the dictation into Word. Can someone please explain to me what a Word Client Application is?? Thank you so much!! Have a good day!
