it did not help at all, not a real bad sound just not as clear as my other computer.
What sound card to you recommend? It has been a long time since I got a sound card and I know there are lots of new ones. I really appreciate your help.
I am not wonderful at computer savy but somewhat, my queston is how do you tell if it is built in the motherboard? That is new since I have bought a sound card years ago. I know most are built in now and I think mine is. Can I go into system and that will tell me? Thanks for your help. I don't really have a geek friend and it is expensive hiring someone.

Dictaphone to Computer
Does anyone know, I heard there is a way to adapt your dictaphone foot pedal to the computer as USB - I'd much rather buy a $10 cable than a $50 foot pedal!
Bought some Dictaphone headgear, need adapter for computer
not realizing on the end it has 2 little points- what I need to know - needing to hook into the front of my computer for editing and does anyone know of an adapter that I could buy that would fit this and where to get? Thanks.
Glad they are gone! Can you tweak your initials to something else

I have heard that some can really tweak their expanders
It is especially good to get the same docs over and over who dictate the same way. She may have entire reports or parts thereof stored and just has to make a couple of changes. It probably can be done under the most excellent of conditions. However, a doctor only dictates so fast, so it might be hard to achieve that level of lph while listening to every word of the dictation.
I agree with those who say to maximize Expander use. It helps me put the dictation speed much faster.
There is software called Key Tweak.... that will put the keys wherever you want them. nm

Is it their computer? Why are they installing a firewall and autocorrect on your computer? That sm
is usually the responsibility of the transcriptionist, especially if an IC or SE. Which company?
Question about transfering computer into to another computer.. sm
I have a dumb question - Just bought a new computer and someone told me to get a flash drive to transfer all my info. But I'm assuming that ExText that I work off of and Escription will have to be downloaded again by the tech people onto my new computer. I can tranfer these can I?
Thanks
How does one find out the computer specs on my computer?
I should know this, but I just don't remember how to do this. I am hoping I have enough RAM, or whatever, to load work platform on my own computer and begin working on it, rather than paying *rent* on the company-furnished computer. Thanks so much.
A computer is a computer, whether it be laptop or desktop.
I have both and use both and I bought both of mine...most companies do not provide computers...

I am beginning a transcription job for an allergist on Monday and they are looking to me for advice on what type of transcriber to buy and where to purchase the machine. Since it has been awhile since I have transcribed, I would like some assistance. I live in TX. Thanks~Sherry
RE: Dictaphone
I have been hearing a lot of bad things about Dictaphone company. Just wondering if any of you have had any bad dealings with them, maintenance, getting in contact with somebody, etc.. I hear bad from everybody except Dictaphone people.

Try transcriptiongear.com or executive communications. I have gotten lanier stuff from executive. I sold my Dictaphone last year for 235.00 it was in pristine condition. Got my lanier/with power box from e-bay.
Dictaphone VR
Has anyone out there edited Dictaphone VR? Considering a job, but not sure if I could make more than I make typing. Thanks.
Dictaphone VR
I've been doing Dictaphone
VR for nearly 3 years now. My speed has increaded about 40%. I cannot comment on increased income, as we are paid hourly whether we do VR or straight typing. But, I must add I really enjoy it. I'm not sure I could go back to typing every report ever again.
Dictaphone VR
What do you mean by Dictaphone VR? I have VR installed but haven't had the time or patience to start using it. Is there a way to connect the Dictaphone to the computer so you don't have to listen, say it, etc?
Dictaphone
I have a Dictaphone C phone that plugs into my phone line and does work with the cable phone. I live in the Northeast and have that all-in-one package for cable, phone and TV, and the Dictaphone has worked fine. I have long distance unlimited which helps too in case the number you have to dial isn't local.
Using Dictaphone
How easy/difficult is it to use dictaphone? Is it user friendly or a pain in the rear. Thanks!!
RE: Dictaphone
Does anybody out there know who to contact for Dictaphone C-phone that needs fixing.
Dictaphone
Please, does anyone know where to get a Dictaphone C-phone fixed. Mine quit. I can call in and they answer, but when I press the button, it disconnects and operator comes on and says, if you want to make a call, hang up and dial again. Have tried everything. It was raining, but no big storm, just wind blowing, but don't know if it was lightening or not. I contacted Dictaphone and they have flat rate of $301 plus tax to fix it.
Dictaphone
Yikes! We used to have a guy come to our office to fix but I live in Washington state. Sorry I cannot help further. I have a Dictaphone for sale for $250 if you need one.
dictaphone help
I am in need of help figuring out how to transcribe remotely from a dictaphone c-phone calling into a dictaphone straight talk system. 
Dictaphone EXT
THE BEST SYSTEM TO WORK ON TO DATE - Simple, friendly, no fuss.
The speech part is great also, but is only good if the person responsible for training it does their job . If it is not tweaked everyday, it is worthless. So the added theroy of the system is only as good as the operator (or in this case, the montioring person).
need Dictaphone help
I have a Dictaphone Straight Talk that suddenly stopped answering the phone when my client calls. Dictaphone won't service this model anymore and the computer repair shop I went to didn't know how. I only have one client using this system and don't want to spend to much money replacing or repairing it. Any suggestions? Thanks!
RE: Dictaphone
Dictaphone does not show printout, but tells you the minutes. If you push button, think #6, it tells you how much time you have left if programmed for that.
Dictaphone Help!!!!please!!!!
I am on the road right now and trying to work from a family members home on my laptop, however my 2-yo knocked my dictaphone off the desk and now although I can get a dial tone I cannot get any of the keys to work!!!!!
Anyone have any experience with anything like this
? About using dictaphone
Is there a way when files are assigned to you to know how many files or how much audio length you have assigned to you through some function on the Dictaphone itself?
RE: Dictaphone
There is no summary, I dont' think. Know you can get the minutes if you hit play header or 6. Can't get total of what you have though.
dictaphone
I'll try that...thanks for the help!

Did you trying contacting Dictaphone
and asking for a replacement? I've done this before, I don't remember is there is a cost.
I think it's Dictaphone ExText
Someone on here said that once. Check the archives.
Thank you. That is exactly how Dictaphone explained it to me sm
when I went to Florida for training.
Programming a dictaphone
I have a dictaphone, model 0421, which my company would like me to program to work with their Lanier system. I have no idea on how to do this. I tried e-mailing dictaphone and could not understand the instructions at all. I am able to dial into their system however, my foot pedal works backwards. This would not be a major problem, but my fastforward and rewind do not work at all which is a real problem. Any ideas?
Dictaphone strips?
How about the Dictaphone belts. They were strips of..whatever?? that we put into the Dictaphone machine to transcribe. We first would put them into the doctor's machine for his dictation (at the clinic I worked at). Then when he was done either he or the nurse would bring the magnetic? strip and clinic papers to me and I would transcribe on my IBM Selectric typewriter..LOLOLOL..Thanks for the memories, fellow transcriptionists!
Dictaphone Cphone SOS
Has anyone ever locked up a C-phone accidentally and now requires a security code which I do not have nor does the owner of the machine to do anything. I am at standstill. Any advice appreciated.
Yep, but its the Dictaphone system...
My hospital rad account decided to "upgrade" their system which supposedly would take half an hour - its now 6 hours and counting - and the docs haven't been able to dictate since noon - boy R we in for a backlog tomorrow! 
Dictaphone problems
I had my dictaphone all programmed. The electricity went out, and when it came back on everything was fine EXCEPT for the ringer. I have been unable to figure out how to turn it off. I tried program/tel/off/no/to turn line 1 ringer off enter the zero on the telephone key pad/lift receiver. That worked once, but does not now. Can anyone give me some suggestions/help?
Dictaphone problems - Thank You
THANK YOU to the person who sent me the instructions on how to turn the ringer off. It worked!! :-)

dictaphone programming
 Does anyone know how to program headset into the dictaphone to work?
Thanks so much.
Dictaphone codes.
Increase speed 3
Decrease speed 2
Change auto bksp 8

First hit top row keys, left(program), left again (keys), then select the key you wish to use from whatever is available.
Hit keys in this order: pound key (#); star key (*); 1; and 1.
Then hit the multiplication key (x) on the right, then the stop key at the bottom. I hope these instructions are clear enough.
Dictaphone ExText
I have worked on Dictaphone and the only way I could get a job back was to ask my team lead to reassign it back to me. The only person who can get all jobs is a QA person, with the job lister, which downloads all of the jobs that have gone to QA or to the client.
Dictaphone question?
I have only worked straight internet/platform transcription and I am curious how the Dictaphone works? Does it connect to the phone line? If so, can it connect to my cable phone (ie Sunrocket, Vonage, etc)? Any help is appreciated.
HELP....with LANIER and Dictaphone???
I am looking for any information that someone can give me regarding getting your equipment fixed with Lanier Voice Write -LX-219-1 machine, as I cannot get my machine to operate.
I also have a C-phone (Dictaphone) and I am getting a lot of static in the earpiece and cannot even hear the physician in the background.
Basically, I feel that both of my systems need to be serviced and was wondering if you could help me here with either (Lanier or Dictaphone) as I am losing $$ as I am even typing this. I have called all the local businesses and searched the web for any help and to no avail. I live in Ridgeway VA....
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated....Thank you
