What a SICK outlook! Why would she need to...

"suck up," as you so graciously put it??? She likes the software. She said so. Why would you think you are in a position to judge HER?????
Perhaps you have done some sucking up yourself, so you are thinking EVERYONE is not sincere with a compliment???? Not everyone is as transparent as you are.  Do you feel better when you slam someone when you think they might be exhibiting a trait you possess??? Counseling may help you.

Does anyone know how to put Outlook Express emails over to Outlook so they can be backed up to CD?
nm
Yes, Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express are different programs
One of my jobs required me to switch from Outlook Express to Microsoft Outlook. It took a little while to get used to, but now I love it. If I keep Outlook open but minimized, new emails pop up on my desktop (you can set how long it stays there) so I know if it is important, like a new voice file, or just spam or something that can wait until later. You can even reply to the email from your desktop without ever opening Outlook. Pretty cool. 
I'm using Outlook and Outlook Express and I've realized
that Outlook (my personal email account through comcast) is not pulling email from server. I can't even get to the Comcast homepage to try to get my email that way. However, my Outlook Express is set up just for my work email... different server, different ports. That's working just fine. Comcast has been changing ports in recent months, and I bet they did something that messed everything up. I hate to go to the techs there. They'll want me to change settings, and then I'll have a mess on my end, too.
Grrrrr. I just want my email and want to be able to get to some key websites that I use. Other websites are completely trouble-free, though. I've never seen this happen before.
I AM SICK, SICK, SICK AND TIRED
Of bad dictators and QA that takes up for them!!!! I am sick to death of:
1. Doc saying paragraph after every sentence.
2. Docs never dictating the first name of doc they are writing to.
3. QA asking us to insert certain sentences in certain places for certain doctors who do not dictate them.
4. Docs wanting their own specific headings but not dictating them.
5. Docs who ramble, never saying period.
6. QA asking us to **fix** their grammer, mistakes, fragmented sentences, and verb tenses and sometimes when we do, we are docked points for **not transcribed as dictated.**
7. QA not wanting anything sent to them, stating **researach medical terms and facilities you are not familiar with.** If they are not there to help us out, what are they doing there????
8. Docs, NPs, and PAs who do not know how to dictate, pronounce, or spell.
9. QA asking us to use BOS, but not knowing it themselves.
10. Doing work I do not get paid for.
Before QA became involved, in years gone by, if a doc's dictation was awful - then that is what he got for transcription and more times than not, they would straighten up and make a better effort. Not now - we or QA has to almost do the dictation for them!! They are the ones with the medical degree - not us. What happened to us just transcribing what is dictated. Why can't they be responsible for what prints out?? If someone could let them know how much trouble their dictation style causes, it would cut my transcription time in half. My list could go on and on. It is a terrible time to be thinking about getting out of the business, but if this crap keeps up - I have to give it some serious consideration. The job just AIN'T what it used to be. 
You have to set up Outlook to do what you think I don't know what
Some versions of Outlook do not have this feature. Mine does. It is located under advanced mail options, tracking. Please do not assume others don't know what they are talking about unless you wrote the program.
Outlook will can this.
Use the calendar option to record your upcoming appointments, etc. With the folders window open, click on Personal Folders and it will show all your appointments for the week as well as tasks and the number of unread email messages. I believe you can change the default either in options or by just closing Outlook with the Personal Folders view and it will reopen in that view. This works VERY well for me!
I don't know about outlook, but on my ISP
I have filters that I can set so that if I get an e-mail with "Viagra" in the subject line it will automatically be deleted. Then they started sending e-mails with odd spellings. I also block senders. Usually they only send once from a particular e-mail address so you won't get another one from that address, though occasionally you will.
There is a program called MailWasher Pro that is pretty good. I used it as a trial, don't know if they have a free version.
Job Outlook?
I worked for Focus Infomatics based in Woburn, MA. Started with them after MT school. They were good, but I was getting paychecks for literally $8.00 because there was NO work. I worked on accounts like MD Anderson Cancer Center...and no work. I switched to Medquist last September and now may find myself without a job because everything seems to be going to India. I checked out Spheris today and they have their corporate HQ in Franklin, TN, but they have 3 HQs in India as well. Not sure if the Americans will eventually lose the work. They are hiring from their website ad today, but not sure if I want to be burned for a third time. Good luck!
Outlook Express does.

Outlook question. Not sure what
version this is, but it's not express. When I write a long email, I like it in letter form with paragraphs and double spaced between paragraphs. However, when I actually send it, it arrives looking, well, "chopped up", not in the paragraphs I inserted. All the text is there, but it looks wrong. Anyone know how to fix this? TIA
Outlook E-mail
Hi. If you go to Yahoo and go into the main mail screen there. You should be able to click on "options." Next look for POP mail. Here they should give you step by step instructions on how to set it up. It has been a while, but this is how I set mine up. I hope this helps. Good luck!!! 
Has the job outlook improved any?
Hey, all. I have been out of touch for a few months, getting some personal stuff out of the way, and have not been keeping up with the job market. Now that I am ready to start looking again, I was curious about how the conditions are right now. I was just wondering if it had improved any since, say January? Is the economy starting to come back as it pertains to MT'ing?
Thanks in advance.

Do you suppose they gave up on that new system?? 
My Norton or my Outlook Express? (sm)
For some reason, for the last 2 or 3 days, when I am sending an email, that little Norton box that pops up is taking a long time to appear, like maybe about 15 seconds or so. It used to be as soon as I hit "send." Is this a problem with my email or my Norton? and is it a big deal? Just wondering why the change. Thanks
How do I get Outlook Express to put up Yahoo
I would like to know what how to set up my Outlook Express to received email from my Yahoo email address so that I can download multiple attachments at once instead of clicking on each individual attachment. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
KC
I just use Outlook Express, so my emails - sm
our stored on my computer (40GB), so in my case it is not an issue. If the OP sends her emails the same, then she can easily save the work emails unless she has a very old computer with no substantial hard drive.
I also use Outlook 2003 with Office, but
your email comes through your ISP into outlook, and your ISP has a storage quota. unless you *save* your emails to your hard drive, mine...two 80GB hard drives, they are not stored on your computer. If you keep them in your email files, your email storage has a quota. by the wording of her email, it sounds like she DID save these files to her hard drive, and that was why it took her so long to find them, put them in email, and return them.
Yes, I understand all that, but in Outlook Express - sm
you have a sent folder. After you send an email it goes into the SENT folder in your "Local Folder". I explained how she can find the emails she sent (if she uses this method)--by clicking on the "To" tab at the top the emails sort by who they were sent to, makes it real easy to find what you were looking for for that particular person--even if she has to send them one at at time (and group them by Shift-arrow; hit forward and send them to MTSO) it would simplify things for her; and there is no "quota" except for what your computer can hold. --I have all my email (minus junk of course) from 2002 without any issues--sent and received. She may not know that she can just hit the "to" tab and have it group all the emails she had sent to that person-- you can also group by subject, date, etc.
yes. outlook 2003 has a sent folder also, but--sm
it is all added in to the quota email set by ISP. sent folder, inbox folder, local folder whatever, it is all a part of the ISP quota for email capacity. I use Time Warner Cable Roadrunner and even with biz class, capacity for email storage, sent, inbox, etc. is 256mb. that is all I am saying about this. I don't want to start a flaming argument..
Yahoo/Outlook Express
If I understand correctly, you have a Yahoo account and an Outlook Express account set up. The reason I am asking is I have Outlook Express, and it was suggested to me that I switch to Yahoo as there are some functions that I cannot do in Outlook Express. I have not switched over to Yahoo yet as I am not sure about the storage space, download/upload storage, etc. is on both to compare. If you have any further information that could help me in deciding, I hope you will share with me. TAA
Do you use Outlook Express for your email?
If so, go to "Tools", then "Options", then click the "Connection" tab. Then click the "Change" button so you can view your current settings and correct them if necessary.
Good luck!
I love your outlook, Brandi..
Thanks, you made my day. 
e-mail and outlook - comcast
You should be able to do exactly what you are saying. I don't know the exact steps, but you should be able to use outlook as I do this and have atlantic broadband as an ISP. I don't like using the ISP home page, I prefer Outlook... it should work.
Open Outlook and type in the address box: sm.
mail.medquistmail.com and press Go or Enter. Anyway, it will take you to the correct page. If you have signed up for Imail, you should have problem; however, there is a tutorial available through QNet. It has been slow going, but I hopeful that they will increase the response time. I have been able to send and receive messages with no problem, just slow, which is extremely frustrating. As well, I have been able to send messages to various people at MedQuist via Outlook. Hope this helps.
I thought I was the only one who used Outlook for personal reasons.
In outlook express you can ask for one. that doesn't mean the recipent sm
well check the box to send a receipt. I never do, and resent them tremendously.
Outlook express problem solved - sm
Had a problem deleting a huge outgoing email. Posted here and many good suggestions came in. However, when I Googled I found www.ITtoolbox, a place to go for technical help.
I was able to finally delete that pesky outgoing email of mine with their help. You may want to keep this site in mind for help if ever you need to.
Thank you all.
Outlook Encryption satisfies HIPAA
(Disclaimer: this is posted by Vann Joe, the publisher of MPWord, MPLite, and MPTools.)
Yes, the encryption built into Outlook would comply with HIPAA.
I note a user has suggested MPLite ($54). If you want to continue working in MS Word, adding MPLite to your work environment will save you much time both in generating the documents and in invoicing. http://www.mpword.com/7mplite.htm
MPWord adds these functions to what you get in MPLite: medical spell check, abbreviation expansion, encryption, zip, unzip, email, fax, ftp.
All our software is available for download and trial. You see, we don't want anyone's money, till you try the software out, finds it meets your needs, and absolutely love the time it saves you.
Outlook reminders and sticky notes, can't function without them.....nm

Cannot send/receive mail in Outlook Express
I am able to connect fine to my dial-up ISP. I have not been able to receive/send any E-mail from Outlook Express today at all. I can receive the mail from that account through my Yahoo web site and am able to go to what is callled Mailstorm, through my ISP, where junk mail is filtered and so everything works fine that way. Any ideas on what the problem could be?
I have contacted my ISP via E-mail but have not received a response yet so that makes me wonder if there is not an issue on their end.
Any suggestions would certainly be appreciated.

Outlook express 2003 email problem
I have a large email in my outbox that will not transmit and I cannot cancel it. It contains pictures from my digital camera.
Embarq could not help, Microsoft wants $49.00 up front to help.
Has anyone had a similar problem and know how to fix it?
Thank you.
I have email on both Comcast and Outlook Express and wondering
if I can go just to Outlook Express with what follows: I opened up Outlook Express yesterday and it said do you want the email to default to Outlook. I did not enter an answer but I was wondering, would it be that simple to where I did not have to change password and everything else, just say I wanted to default and where it comes in on the Comcast now it would just default over? Anyone know? Thanks.
If the recipient does not acknowledge mail receipt, Outlook will not notify you.
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.
Is the tool bar in your internet browser?... is the emial web based or Outlook?

sorry you are sick
You should probably try something orally like Pepto or Imodium, doubt the other would work but if you call pharmacist they would know for sure
Yes, you do seem a bit sick. Maybe you should
Small talk is a bridge that connects us to people, and let in what might be a close relationship, whether it be friends, or mate, or whatever. This is how people break the ice to see whats deeper.
I, like you, became defensive and withdrawn being out of it for so long, and thought everyone was the enemy and out to get me. Once you change your perspective, you'll realize its not them, its you, you're the one who needs to change to become happy.
The world is not negative, dreary, and awful, that is just how you see it because you're isolated and scared. 
I am far from a know it all, just sick of MTs like you who cannot think.
I have some great MTs that take feedback, get their scores up, and go completely off QA. But then there are the ones like you who think your own low scores are the editors fault..you couldn't be at fault oh no!! LEARN YOUR JOB! You are on here arguing with people when you should be figuring out how to be a transcriptionist or better yet, a manager at McDonalds!
I used to do that, cause I was so sick of it, but
supposedly now our company started where they will deduct from your paychecks any reports that are sent back, so I just do them. A lot are still being sent back though, so I doubt if they are enforcing this.
I know what you mean. This is so sick.
How about we discuss too when the world is going to end.
sick cat
Help. Our cat stopped eating about 5 days ago. She will eat maybe 1 bite a day, does drink water. No upper respiratory signs, no vomiting/diarrhea, she just sits very still for long periods. Can't get her into vet for a couple more days. She is getting very thin, not grooming herself. Tried fancy food, things she likes, not interested. Any suggestions?
sick cat
Please see your vet ASAP! My cat, recently deceased, exhibited these same signs and it turned out she had pneumonia. I was lucky and she ended up living for another year and a half. Yes, if your vet will not see you on an emergency basis, get another vet! Good luck to you and Boo!
If you think I'm sick
then why are you on my site. Go elsewhere.
If you think this is sick
you should read my journal.
sick son
Emetrol for nausea. Always worked for me.
Bo sick?
What's wrong with him? I love him. He was my pick on the last AI.
sick of it?
I don't think I will ever get sick of it, and I have been at it for over 20 years! The only thing I regret vocation wise is not sticking with my nursing school. You know the story... got married young... decided I wanted big $ instead of nursing school and there it went! So i guess i get my nursing vicariously through transcription! I do love being at home and being my own boss though!
I am so sick of this!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't help but vent. I was at a family picnic last weekend and YET AGAIN someone approached me about "doing what you do at home". Uh, you mean my JOB?!?!?!?!?!?!
She said she is trying to get some family member of hers to "do what you do at home". I gave her a bit of a blank stare at first and then as NICELY AS I COULD I explained to her that it is a great job but anyone considering it should know that working from home isn't as easy as the advertisements make it sound. (this is someone who I don't know well, picnic was at my sister-in-laws and she had her side of the family there as well). Anyway, I explained to this lady that I have been doing this for 20 years and I went to school first, then worked in doc office 6 years, then hospital 4 years, then home. I told her that companies want people to have at least 2 years hospital experience before working at home. AND, most hospitals want someone to have some MT experience before hiring them. So I told her not to think that it is easy for someone to just starting ~typing at home~ right away 
She then *explained* to me that her sister lives near Cleveland (we are from a small town) and that she would probably have a better chance to work from home being from a bigger city. I then tried to explain that I work for a national company and that is the standard for the entire country. She didn't say a word.
HONESTLY I think people really think that we have a nonskilled job, like anyone can put a desk and computer in their home and sit down and start doing this. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I just wish people would understand that it is a real job!!!!!!
