Mine doesn't work either

In Reply to: Anyone know how to get the - Lanier LX question
Mine does the same thing. I think if you don't work on site, and just dial in, it won't keep track. That's what the Lanier guy told me when he came to set me up, but when I worked in the hospital, it did keep track.

it doesn't with mine, but I believe Shorthand (sm)
instructs folks to turn off the autocorrect feature. Another thing that ShortHand instructs, is that you load Shorthand last, i.e., when you start up your computer and start up your programs, start up Shorthand last and see if that doesn't fix the what's going on. hth!
Mine doesn't either, and they are not small town, any of them. nm

Mine is definitely Taylor. He does his own thing and if he doesn't win
he'll be regularly employed that's for sure.
mine is stored in Auto Test as cc: and it doesn't cap.

bayscribe spellchecker ... mine doesn't beep ...
you can always hit cancel which just means that it will exit you from spellchecker no corrections will be saved and you will have to start over ... no beeping on mine at all -- NONE ANYWHERE IN BAYSCRIBE -- and my ALT-tab works fine --although I usually use my mouse and lower task bar to get to the screen I want ...
You might be using a version customized to your employer's specificiations. ... so I'd recommend checking with coworkers or your company's website if applicable ... after you check your online bayscribe manual ,,,
Sorry not to be much help ...
I just work with ShortHand minimized. Smarttype doesn't work the same way? nm

That doesn't work either around here....sm
A few years ago I was working the 2nd shift and put huge signs up asking people to not ring the doorbell because I was working and I had given my neighbor the candy that was to be given away on my behalf... neighbor even told the brats when he gave it to them that it was from my house as most people get to his door before mine and they still ignored the information they had been given.
If we didn't have 400 kids come through I wouldn't mind - but there are apartment complexes abutting our subdivision and the people from the apartments dump their kids by the car loads onto our subdivision to get the candy. Our neighborhood association wishes it could block off the street for this 1 night a year to keep these goobers out! I don't mind giving candy to the kids that I know but not to the rest of the world.
Yes, we see, as you go doesn't work very well, does it??? LOL!

No, doesn't work. Thanks, anyway. nm

Okay, you work doesn't need QA because YOU are the QA...
and I should come down off my high horse? 
You have waaaaaay more education, so you automatically assumed that you could be an MT without any kind of MT training? See, that's the problem, your attitude. "Anybody can be an MT -- medical terminology, ha! I've got a degree in tiddlywinks, surely I can do medical transcription."
Oh and your doctor never complains because he wouldn't know a misspelling or a grammatical error if it bit him in the... Most doctors are far too busy to bother with such nonsense. That's why they hire us because they hope we know what we are doing.
Oh and FYI, I do own my own business. I am a QA consultant. I offer my services to MTSOs for a fee. I randomly QA their MTs and find those things the QA staff is missing because they are too busy filling in the million and a half unneccessary blanks left in reports by careless MTs. I also keep one full-time, employee status job for the benefits and the steady pay-check.
doesn't work... sm
I posted below; read that for more info.
Even with the best dictator and the newest version of Dragon (which I use), while it CAN be done logistically, VR is not to the point where it understands naturally spoken English, even with the most clear speech. A person has to dictate in a very artificial manner. If the dictator knew in advance to dictate that way, maybe. But not very likely.
I have to speak in a very distinct manner when redictating my work.

doesn't let you work
My husband used to be like that until he was diagnosed 10 years ago with bipolar disorder. He is also on disability and he knows that I really have to work, since I pay most of the bills. He makes me breakfast and my 25 year old daughter who is still home shares with him the dinner meals. So I just make sandwiches for lunch and that's it. My daughter goes grocery shopping on Saturday or Sunday afternoon, as she works.
We have a great life NOW.
I wish you the best.
I work for 2, one knows, the other doesn't sm
One is an employee situation and I am not bound by contract not to work anywhere else, but I simply don't talk about it. My lead MT knows I work for someone else, but by the number of lines and time I put in, it would be hard to tell sometimes.
The PT job knows well about the other job and sometimes they forget I work a split and I have to go back, but usually this is not a problem.
There is a company who refused to hire me about 9 months ago because of who my FT is. I would have been considered to be "working for the competition" like this is a problem, as I keep my mouth SHUT and I don't talk about accounts from one company with the other company. I have some ethics and I took this personally. Give me some credit for some discretion and for some integrity!!
doesn't work for me
I have tried to save it just in Word when I am out of the platform and it doesn't work when I reopen Word in or out of the platform. I sent a message to my employer but haven't heard anything back yet.
6 WEEKS...IT DOESN'T WORK...... sm
the "reason" it doesn't work is because it's been sitting in the box for 6 weeks. LOL ! If I ever put my cookies down long enough to open it, I'll let you know.
This doesn't necessarily work for others, but ...
when I feel upset, overwhelmed, or down about my situation, I try to think of how worse others may have it. For instance, maybe your husband is facing 6 weeks of recovery from surgery... but somewhere out there somebody's husband has been delivered a grim prognosis and would give anything for a 6 week "recovery."
You say you're an orphan... But looking on the positive side you do have a husband and children (however trying they may be at times), and someday they will have spouses and children and your family will be ever larger. That's a good thing.
Again, not to diminish your problems in any way, just trying to share how I sometimes help myself through tough times, by reminding myself that things can actually be much much worse.

been there done that ...doesn't work...only causes more chaos...sm
but thanks for the advice. It's crossed my mind a million times...
Two wrongs just don't make a right...ever... To me...the only one being childish is the greedy cherrypicker...not the mature person trying to find a peaceful solution.
But that's JMO...thank you though...
Thanks, doesn't sound like something I want to work on. nm

*67 doesn't work on 800 numbers
Corporate numbers, 800 numbers, and government numbers often use a different form of caller ID. It's called a WATS line, and it records the originating phone number of EVERY call, not just the un-hidden ones.
Do this instead, if you decide to report something anonymously:
Go to a Dollar General, Family Dollar, whatever, and buy a Tracfone for $10. Activate it online from a public WiFi spot such as Panera's (NOT from your home desktop computer).
Use the Tracfone to call the 800 number. Throw away or give away the Tracfone after that - don't use it for anything else. Remove the battery immediately after the call. Place the call from a location as far away from your physical location of residence as possible.
Why doesn't she take the PC into the pool , that might also work...nm

Vonage doesn't work all the time
I had AT&T but wanted to try Vonage. 2 a/c's - one was fine with Vonage (in fact better quality). The 2nd a/c is too tinny, etc and I can't use it. So try it out first.
This "business" thing seems to vary. When you ask them about a "business" a/c they told me I didn't need one. Now I am running into people all over who have phone cos bugging them about usage. LOL - it says "unlimited long distance" - it doesn't matter if you use it for friends or for dictation. I'd be curious to see what happens with a lawsuit, because they may lose. Business a/c's are generally for people with multiple lines and special needs re quick repair times. It has nothing to do with how much you use the phone to call one number.
I'd try confronting them with this.
I spec. told Vonage what I do and asked if I need a business a/c and they told me now also. See if they change.
Our Directway doesn't work all the time -
it depends on the weather. So far this has been a mild winter and it has been working great. I don't know how it would be for Meditech. I get my work on CDs.
I've tried comcast as well...doesn't work!
My brain doesn't work that fast
I'd have to use 'hyperpatm' and 'hypopatm'. Sometimes I make macros and can't remember what my train of thought was when I made them.
To help save time while working, sometimes I just make a list of macros I want to add and then add them in all at once when I'm on a break/lunch/or things when things are slow.
Thanks Melinda. Certainly doesn't work like most claim. NM.
Please post the link again; it doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks. n/m

Mine got sent to me by my work and was the same way.

Doesn't work with "wireless" - my laptop is wireless sm
And my tower is wireless, does this mean I can't use it at all? Sorry to be so uninformed was looking forward to the 2 computers,1 screen and keyboard. ???
A friend of mine went to work for
them and had a very hard time, ended up going with another service. She told me she was docked in her pay for sending to QA with blanks. She said she could not make any money there.
Did the buttons not work like mine? Nm

The reply function to your original message doesn't work (sm)
So sorry about that...I hope you'll find this message.
I work around my kids. Mine are not as young as yours
but even when I had babies I worked before they got up, worked during nap time, worked a little after dinner when DH could watch them. With my last one I put him in a Mother's Morning Out program for 15 hours/week at a church 2 miles from our house for 2 years during the school year. I'm fortunate I have flexible hours that I can do that.
Mine are school age and go to rec camp from 8:30 to 4:00. They have fun, and I work.

Use mine for work sometimes, but plug in my Goldtouch sm
keyboard and "real" mouse. Obviously, too cumbersome for just "play" at a coffee house or something, but when I travel, I do pack the "good stuff" with me
I just work for mine. MT is the closest I've come to SM
good return on my time, and I know that's not true for everybody.
Don't want to insult you, but -- why not just work for your money?
Mine avg. around $2K a year that is it -- all work via the internet- sm
I cannot see how anyone can write off $10K unless they are fudging things or have a very large office area in a very expensive house with a BIG mortgage---and drive back and forth delivering tapes, print outs, etc. I do not do the mortgage/office deduction so I am sure I could write off another $1K if I did that, but as I don't know when we are moving (planning to one of these days) I don't want the hassle so I just eat that one. As for my write offs I deduct anything remotely used or needed for work, electricity, paper, ink for my printer (print patient lists), my fax service, internet, FTP, any programs/upgrades, virus protection, reference books, any equipment (did my computer a couple years ago), phone line for work, etc. I am sure there is more (i.e. a new desk, chair, etc.). If you use it for work, write if off. --From the sounds of it though your accountant is right.
