It should open the file and then maybe you can change the format of the file back to a wav file.

How about downloading a trial version of Wavplayer from Bytescribe (or other wav player)....sm
and see if the .dvf files will work. That could help isolate some of the problem. Can you get them to play in Media Player?
Believe me, like illegal music downloading, program downloading exists too! (nm)

Starting job using Olympus Player/pedal - does this have a good player with slow down speeds - I do
Until now I have always used company software with player included. I hate to spend money and find out the player is mickey mouse!!
Thanks- you may e-mail me if you prefer.
Do you still have the CD's for downloading - sm
or backup of your old Windows system? If so, I'm fairly certain you could download that onto a new computer in addition to Vista, and run that instead 'til things clear up with the Vista problem at some MTSO's.
Either that, or hang onto your old PC to use for work only, and in the meantime you can buy the new PC and get used to Vistas and its quirks & differences, etc. without worrying about it messing up your work.
Help- What do I need for downloading?
I just had a Dr. ask me if I was able to download dictation. What does that mean, like from an email or something? I am new so what do I need to get? I downloaded express Scribe, but I don't even know how it works! I am ordering a foot pedal and headphones right now.
Downloading all folders...sm
The Olympus software that comes with the recorders always downloads every folder that has files in it, and you just need to make sure whatever file transfer method you use checks in all of the folders for new files.

Suggestions for PC, just used for downloading,
You might try downloading ExpressScribe.
I think it has a few test files when you first down load it that you could practice on.
Downloading dictations (sm)
If you key in alt-ctrl-Z while the first one is loading, it will prevent the other two from downloading from the queue. When you are ready to submit and do another file, you will need to key in that sequence again to allow the next one to come in.
downloading terror
Dawn you must have been the fly on the wall at my place. It's been monstrous downloading unfamiliar programs and some of those doctors are somebody's idea of a terrible joke - the kind you have to have a report of theirs in front of you so you can learn what they are saying. I have never tested online til now.. As for now, I am taking a day or 2 off of applying after I put stupid wrong info on an app, my own fault for being "frantic". Time to walk away for a day or so. I got told by one company they would call me when they have work, I felt it was a kind brush-off, and I cried myself to sleep.

Virus after downloading DQS from website
Has anyone lately downloaded DQS from their website?
I down loaded two computers (PC and laptop). Both were
infected from a virus found in the WEBCORRECT.exe file.
Anyone else encounter this problem? My virus program isolated the virus and then I deleted the file. I forgot to write
down the virus, something like Trojan Backhorse? Not really sure.
Problems downloading Vianeta...
Has anyone had problems trying to download the Vianeta program onto their computer? I have been at this for over 3 weeks and am now facing the prospect of having to do a full system restore on my PC. I was wondering if anyone who uses this platform has had problems and if so, offer a solution other than a system restore.
Downloading medical speller ? (sm)
I googled medical dictionaries and spellers and I've found several. Some are free. What's the concensus? Are the free ones just as good as buying the Stedman's or something comparable? Opinions please.
Thanks. 
When does it occur? On boot up? downloading? other?

Downloading Editscript files
After you log in, it takes a while for several reports to load. When you get your first screen, you hit Alt U to get the first report. Hope this works for you.
Trouble downloading test.
I got an e-mail with an attachment for a typing test. When I opened the attachment I took about a second and screen went into my player but the job was not there to transcribe. I never had this happen before. I was resent the attachment and the same thing happened. I have had problems before with the foot pedal working but also had the voice portion so was still able to test. Any suggestions ? TIA.
Maybe downloading the newest version will help.
?
no, it's called illegal downloading - sm
and the key word is "illegal"
Downloading DSS files from TASP
I will need to download and play DSS files from a TASP system. My boss says I will need to purchase a player and program from Olympus to do this. Others have said I can use Bytescribe or Express Scribe with my USB pedal. My question is, if that's the case, how easy will it be to transfer from a TASP and play them on one of these players. My boss is making it out to be an impossible task. She said others have tried other programs and other foot pedals with either partial success or no success. Any help would be appreciated. The pedal package is $300 and who can afford that? Not I! Thanks and happy typing!
Don't you worry about all the lawsuits for downloading music?
My kids love to download, but once the law suits started against the computer owners I cut it out completely. I know they love music, I do myself, so share with me please, don't you worry about getting "caught?"
Downloading tests via the Internet for employment
Hello all. I was wondering if any of you download tests online when attempting to work for someone advertising here on the job boards. I just feel a little squimish. I'm being instructed to go to the Start Menu, right click, and type in the file name, etc. and then it takes me out to it online. Does this see like a safe thing to do? It doesn't mean anything is going on my PC is it when I type in the file name and password and end up at a site through Internet Explorer. Sorry for my ignorance or if I'm not making sense.. I just use my computer for a lot of confidential info, etc. and don't want a complete stranger onboard. Any help, suggestions, etc. would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
downloading free word program
has anyone ever used open office to download word so a test can be taken? I rent a computer from my company and I know I probably should not do this. My question is would they know if this is being done? Thank you.
downloading dictation versus telephone
ive been transcribing 220-250 lines per hour using the following: I dial into the telephone system using a Dictaphone to access the dictations and use Persona Client and Telnet software. It is all just straight typing, the dictation is waiting for me as I don't have to download nething. I get paid by minutes dictated. For example, if I transcribe 1 hour of dictation it would equal 600 lines. 600 lines at 8 cpl = 48.00. I'm lookin elsewhere for employment, and I'm worried about the downloading of dictations (which seems most are doing now-a-days) slowing my daily production down. Does anyone seem to be more/less productive as far as using a telephone to access dictations as opposed to downloading. Also, is there a big difference between getting paid per 65 character line or by minutes dictated. TY
Downloading Java didn't work
So I deleted it again like they told me to do in the beginning. Any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
Need Testing Help - Downloading Voice Files
I am taking a transcription test and I have downloaded the voice files on my desktop. I am trying to drag them into Express Scribe but it isn't working. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!
I already know the details, hubby downloading porn while wife
downloading a tabbed browser will solve that problem

You can only have one Outlook Express open and downloading emails at a time. If have both the SM
laptop and the PC trying to download email for the same address, you are going to have one downloading some and the other downloading whatever comes in after the first computer downloads, make sense? That's why you are only getting part of your email on one and part on the other. You have two different machines trying to download the same emails.
If you set both Outlook Express programs set up the exact same way on each computer, then both will work, but not at the same time.
Hope that makes sense.
Company requested not downloading Vista as it will not work with our program.

Express Scribe is GREAT for downloading sound files for testing for different companies!
Express Scribe Transcription Playback Software
This software works as a transcriber that downloads into your computer and allows you to receive files and use your footpedal. I have used it a lot when applying for jobs and testing, especially because I can then use my footpedal and not my keyboard to advance the sound files. This is a free download too, so use it if you have to. I highly recommend it.....
This is the link for the site to download it for free -

I also have Audacity (for my legal work). PC World has several listed as well. You might try this link: http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_description/0,fid,22513,00.asp
She said she had a DVD player for the car so it would not be that bad - sm
I drive to the Philly area (4 hour drive w/o stops) with the kids at least 4 x a year. I use my laptop (my travel computer) and play movies for the kids to watch, the one reason I bought a laptop with a DVD drive. It is great. My husband built a little table to put the computer on in the backseat with them (Suburban so plenty of room), and some of the time the kids play with their Barbies, read, gameboys, Pixtar, etc. and the other part they watch a movie or 2 (they are short movies for the most part). The trip is not too bad, and the kids don't fight, wonderful. Takes about 4.5-5 hours depending on how many food and pee stops, I carry a potty seat with me so that helps save some time and I can stop anywhere basically. So it is possible to make it pleasant, of course the kids will want/need to run about a bit when you get there after sitting strapped in all that time, but they will be fine otherwise, and I speak from much experience in this as I have been doing this for 7+ years now. The DVD player makes a BIG difference in how smoothly a long drive goes.
What .wav player are you using?
.
wav player
 Sorry to change the subject and hope this is the right board. But, I have a problem. I was testing with 2 reports to transcribe. My wav player only would let me do the first one. It is rather hard to explain but I could not access the 2nd file. I shut my computer off and tried again but it would not let me have access to it. Does anybody know what I mean? The file is unzipped and I can click on it but no audio comes up. This is on both. I just got this player and, of course, cannot find the directions so if anyone can help I would appeciate it.
I have DSS player, the doc who uses
it has a dock that is attached to his computer, he puts his player in the dock and it is able to send the voice files to my computer. Not sure all the mechanics of it on his end, but if your docs have used it before they should already have the dock and be able to send.
Dss Player for Mac
Olympus dss player for mac is tho only mac compatible program. Purchas the AS2300 kit for around $199.
What is the best .wav player
I currently use Express Scribe and wanted to get some opinions on other .wav players out there as far as dictation sound quality goes.
Thanks!!
Are you using a player with it?
Not sure if you're asking about programming your pedal, or if you've done that and it still won't work.
If that's the case, make sure you've checked the correct player. After you sign on, click options and then select the player you're using.
Vxp player?
Has anyone been able to install VXP player on Vista?
WAV player
Does anyone have any favorite WAV players that work with a foot pedal? I have Express Scribe, but the sound quality is not the best. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
perhaps it's not the player...
perhaps it's the recording itself. or your headphones/speakers. I use Express Scribe and some files are clear as a bell, some are muffled...it all depends on the file format, the recording device, etc...in other words not on your end but on the dictator's end.
I don't know for sure if a different player
would make a difference, but I do know that if you use USB headphones versus one that plugs into your speakers or the round outlets on your computer the wound will be better. It won't be a huge difference, but if you try it for a month and then go back to regular phones you'll notice a difference. You can probably get a headset for around $30. There is also a thing called Audio Advantage by Turtle Beach (you can google). It is pretty much the same thing as above, it turns your regular headset in USB ones, but you also have some software on your computer where you can manipulate the sound. It takes a little bit of playing with to get it just right though. I have a company supplied computer and not allowed to be anything on my computer. I'm using the headset part, just can't use the software now, but it is still better than using your sound card. I got it at Best Buy for around $30 a couple of years ago.
Try FTR Player Plus...SM
For the Record player, it plays wav files...you can download it at: http://www.fortherecord.com/page.asp?pageid=222
It is free.
It's just a wav player, that's all. NM

DSS Player
I have been using the DSS Player 2002 for a couple of years. It plays DSS, WMA, and WAV files. I haven't had any trouble with it at all but it is rather expensive.
VF player
HELP!! Is anyone familiar with VF Player from BCB voice systems? My boss sent it to me to load on my PC so that I could pick up some extra work and I can't get it to work. I am running Windows XP, is that why?
Anyone using Gear player?
Sounds like a really good package deal, anyone using it? I am thinking of using the digital recorder and buying the gear player package.
TIA,
Sunny
No you don't have to buy it. If you don't have a compatible player - sm
that can play "PlayAll" files then they will supply the PlayAll XTRA player, though they do ask you send them a CD for it I believe. They supply the WP DOS 5.1, Stedman's Spellcheck via email. That is why I said don't let the question throw you, you don't have to buy anything.....unless you are new of course, then you will need a footpedal. Bytescribe is compatible with the sound files and that is what I use, I also have a copy of the PlayAll which I use to pull up the file information I need to transcribe, but it won't work if you have Bytescribe on your computer. I love my Bytescribe so it stays. They will train in in the use of WP 5.1 and they hire newbies too. I started to work for them with 2 months of experience....it will be 4 years in May since I began working for them. As I said good people, I appreciate them as much as they appreciate me.
That's true but if you already have a player
like Start Stop or something else, and you only need DocShuttle to be able to download files, then you don't need their wav player. You can just open them in your own player and mark them complete (and attach for upload if the company works it that way) when you're done.
I use Olympus Player every day and like it SM
much better Express Scribe!
