What is the best micro-cassette transcriber? SM
Believe it or not, some docs still use tapes. I have a Sony transcriber but the tape fades in and out. If I let off the foot pedal and then play again, the tape will get louder and clear and then gradually fade again. It's really annoying and I'm thinking it's the transcriber. Is there a machine out there that will play a tape with more clarity and consistency?
Cassette charge
I do the same, micromini casettes and I pick up and email the work back. I charge .15 per line.
I have a broken cassette tape - where can I get it repaired
I tried doing a search on here, because a few years ago there was a post about a place that repairs broken cassette tapes. I kind of remember it being in Florida somewhere, but I cannot find the thread. Does anyone know where I can get a cassette tape fixed??? RAdio Shack says no, they don't fix them.
mangled mini cassette tape
I have a sony mini-cassette tape that is bunched up on the inside to the point where I can no longer pull it to straighten it out. It is just stuck. This has a full day of dictation on it. Anyone know a gentle way of trying to pry this cassette apart? It's the only way I can straighten up the tape. I did it once before over a year ago and it took 4 hours, but it worked, but I don't remember what I used. I don't know how it happened. I just want to fix it because I'll have to be the one to tell this doctor he has to do his dictation all over and it won't be pretty. Thanks.
Belts, then regular cassette tapes...
then mini, then micro...an IBM Selectric then magnetic cards, then magnetic tapes...those were the days! 
Are you referring to a cassette tape that has dictated material on it?
I would try to spool it back with the eraser tip of a pencil, but I wouldn't waste alot of time doing so. I've had this happen in the past, and fortunately for me, I returned it to the physician, explained the problem, and he said, "no problem"...I'll just redictated it.
I am again stating here that the single most important thing one can to do to ensure the quality and lifespan of tapes, is to keep them in their plastic case when not in your machine and being transcribed.
Thanks, I have Trend Micro. I'll try that.
Just supposedly it might not work with some programs. Has anyone had trouble with Trend Micro having problems with certain software or programs?
Trend Micro is the only security software I use.

Are you talking standard cassettes or micro? (sm)
If you mean micro, then the transcribers are fairly cheap on ebay (under $60). If you mean standard cassettes, then I have no idea. :)
As for rates, you could charge a line rate and then a mileage fee if that would work for you.
I have Trend Micro PC-cillin and have never gotten a warning for this site nm

CA Bay area, two accounts still on micro, one at 0.15 the other @ 0.17 gross line. nm
In a pinch I have played the cassette in front of my computer mic and recorded using the sound playe
Mine is located by going to the start menu, to accessories, to games, to sound recorder. As long as it is quiet in the room, the sound quality is excellent.
Looking for a machine or something that will convert micro tapes to wave files
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
