Olympus DS4000 disk

I bought a DS4000 digital recorder brand new on ebay last year. I just got a new account who is interested in going digital and when I opened it up the disk is cracked. I have the license number to register the software I just need a copy of the software. If anyone can copy or send the original and I will return the next day please email me at bsptss at aol dot com, I'll gladly pay any associated costs.

Thanks

from it's owner to transfer the voice files from the handheld to the computer. 

The Olympus DS-10 will not allow the docs to tape over what they record.  I had to get this for one my docs who kept taping over everything.  They get very upset when the tape over everything.

I think the editing capabilities they are referring to means that the doctor can go back into a recording he has already done, like into the middle of it, and insert something he forgot.  If I were you, I would NOT get one that allows this.  I started out giving my docs the DS330, which has editing capabilites.  On several occasions they ended up overwriting their recording completely or inserting things in the wrong place and overwriting portions of the recording.  It was a NIGHTMARE.  If you have docs who are very careful, it may not be a problem, but my docs are not careful at all with these things.  Then they got upset at the recorder and at me!  Oh brother.... Anyway, they eventually got used to the recorders and have been using them now for years with no more problems with overwriting.  But in the beginning they had a rough time.

Now I give out the Olympus DS2, which does not have editing capabilites and have had none of the above problems.  Docs use it with ease and there is no worry of overwriting a file.  If I were you, I'd go with the DS2.  The DS330 is discontinued anyway.  Good luck.

The client set me up with it, and I only have experience with the transcription units, although I know the dictation units have docking stations that send the voice files to the computer.

I checked and one transcription unit runs around $400, although you can find it a little bit cheaper if you look hard enough.

Hope this helps.

I had purchased the same model and found that you could not tape over anything the physician had already dictated.  It is for taping conferences, meetings, etc. 

I have company issued computer with IT.  I would like to know if I could move IT to a CD or disk so that I can put it on my personal computer.  I have greatly expanded the glossary to cover my area of expertise over the last one year and do not want to lose this.  In fact, I think I would break down and cry if I did.  Plus, am thinking of taking on a PT job and would like to utilize this IT on my other computer.

Thank you.

For copyright protection, IT restricts itself from being able to be copied onto a disk and installed onto another computer. The only way to install it is to use the installation disk.

The glossaries, however, can be backed up onto a seperate disk, just not the actual program itself.

Technically, the hospital owns the license so installing it on a personal computer would violate the license agreement. If you would like to have it on your own computer, it is recommended to purchase your own copy so you don't have to worry about anything with the license agreement.

I need to find digital recorders for a few doctors.  I am looking at the DS 30, but want to make sure its a decent recorder, but don't want to spend too much $$.  They want to email me the digital files--so I was wondering if this recorder is pretty easy to use/set up?

Thanks for any info

I have a potential new client that is using an Olympus DSS system they tell me.  My question is can I just use Express Scribe to play these or would I need to purchase the something like the Olympus AS-400 system to play their files?

Thanks!

I've used it for years and all of a sudden when I go to transcribe the file I have highlighted, the player disappears.  The "player and slider" do not stay "on top" of the WORD document.  I can minimize it and open it that way, but it is a pain.  I want it "on top" of the document so I can see progress of the file. As it is now, I "can't see it" and therefore can't open or close it.   anyone know what happened?  TIA   

task bar and also the page that opens a new document and the print preview page.  There are probably more missing.  How do I get them back?

thx so much

I have a CD that I am supposed to transcribe.  It came to me in as a .cda format, and it won't play whatsoever.  Not on my laptop, not on my CD player, nothing.  I see online that there are ways to convert the cda to an mp3, but I'm not sure which are hoaxes/bogus and which are for real.

Does anyone know how to do a conversion of cda to mp3?  Please help.  Thanks so much

Not sure what folder I can find them on my computer.
