them in Express Scribe and you can set your footpedal up. I forget where the downloaded files go, can't remember if you can put them where you want them but I would have to search for them to download to Express Scribe - maybe someone else can tell you how. It is much better than what you are doing.

I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
Check out ExpressScribe. There is a way with them and it is free. Microcassettes also.

You can't download it free any more. You have to buy it now. NM

AVG and their free download is as good as anything else out there.
anything else out there.
Download the free AVG from Grisoft.com.
It finds viruses that Norton misses.
You can also download free from Microsoft

I you don't have a zip application, download a free one like 7-Zip. sm
then follow the instructions and compress (zip) the ShortHand file.
Free meditech download..sm
There was a site about 8 months or so ago that we would go to and we were able to download the Meditech program for free. Once you have the meditech, you need your own clients numbers to access the modem, but the program itself was not a security issue. I was just wondering if anyone knew of another site with the download.

to delete this line that says: Buy me so you can get rid of this annoying line (or something like that). It counts your lines for you and then creates an invoice. Looks professional. Hope this helps.
download Malwarebytes....it's free and......
I had something like that too awhile ago. Because of this "thing," I had a hard time staying on any website, let alone trying to download Malwarebytes. But I kept trying and finally, the next day, I was able to get it downloaded and ran. It took the problem away and saved me a huge headache. This "thing" was something like Spyware 2008, I just can't remember exactly. I just know it said something about spyware and everytime I tried to go to a site, it would pop up and I couldn't do anything at all. Somehow, though, I managed to bring up Malwarebytes and inbetween closing the spyware thing and its popping up again, I got Malwarebytes loaded. I also have McAffe, AdAware and Spybot but they didn't stop this thing.
One thing you need to do, if you don't already, is update your antispyware and adware protection. Do it at least once a week because new bugs are coming out constantly. I even run an update on McAffee even though I think it's supposed to do it automatically, just to be safe.
Right now I have some stupid "MywayWebSearch" or something like that and I cannot get rid of no matter what I do. Besides the 3 listed above, I even ran SuperAntispyware and Spyware Blaster and still can't get rid of it! I think I have managed to quarantine it though, cuz it doesn't seem to be causing the havoc anymore. These are all Free, by the way, and they do keep my computer pretty clean for the most part. I run scans every couple of days, and do the other maintenance stuff.
Good luck to you and give these things a try before you spend money. If they don't work, nothing lost, if they do.... money saved!

Download ShortHand for a free trial.
Of all the expanders I've tried, it's been the easiest to learn and use. Good graphic user interface, too. Lots of features. Read the help file and manual because there are a lot of neat features I didn't even know about until I read about them.

You can download the free 30-day trial of Shorthand here.
http://www.pcshorthand.com/dnload.html
Then it's $99.95 to purchase it at the end of the free trial, but it pays for itself and is really easy to use. That'll give you a month to save up the money for it. My stats vary on it anywhere from 26% to 67% depending on my dictator.

You can download Express Scribe for free, but I would
suggest waiting on the foot pedal. If you need to do voice files for testing you can using hot keys - slower, but saves you from buying something that will stay in the closet. You may need a C-phone but I never heard of a company providing one. Sometimes the company will provide a foot pedal too.
Use Abacus. You can download for free. Very accurate. nm

Not sure if it does the files you need but a quick check of their program will tell you. Google it.
You can download Express Scribe for free.
This program has programmed hot keys (the F keys) to do the same things a foot pedal would. A foot pedal does make the going easier. You could try ebay or do a Google search to find a foot pedal that is within your price range.
Anyone know where I can get the old MPCount software that was a free download?
I know that it is now part of MPTools or something like that and you have to pay for it, but I just want the old version.
Download eTrust EZ Antivirus. Free, and it got rid of my spyware.

There's a free utility you can download to add multiple AutoText ... sm
entries at one time, but you have to format the list manually in a Word document before you can run the macro to upload. The utility only works in versions 2000 to 2003. You would create a 2-column table with your entry name in column 1 and your text in column 2, then run the macro. You can take a pre-made list and convert that to a table, but it's still going to take some manual editing on your part to format the list. It's a lot of work either way. You can find the utility here:
autotextloader2.zip Utility for loading a large number of AutoText entries into a template. http://jay-freedman.info/
ABCZ lists you can purchase are made to work with ShortHand and Instant Text only. Google Jon Knowles or ABCZ lists.
I use ShortCut. You can download a free demo version at sylvansoft.com. nm

try express scribe you can download for free. what type file is it?nm
;
Download FTP SERVER software (it can be found free). Then have the docs
upload their files to YOUR server. There is no cost to you or the doc to do this. Someone does have to pay for the recorder, which I have chosen to do for 2 docs. The other one purchases his own when needed (twice in 7 years). One picks up files on FTP server. The other 2 still want theirs printed. Since they are not in same city, I mail them via snail mail and they are happy with that. I also do fax any stat reports to them at no charge simply because I have unlimited long distance.
There is a free download line counter called Abacus and I have used
that program to count my lines, which works real well. I just always used a program to do it. It's pretty user friendly and you can try it for free and see if you like it.
It's an e-zine that you download for free and read. It's still quarterly. Just in case anyon

You can also download (free) a product called Cool Timer from CNet.
You can set it to act like a stopwatch or to countdown time. I use it all the time and it has helped me immensely. I just have it open all the time on my toolbar. http://www.download.com/Cool-Timer/3000-2350_4-10062255.html

ExpressScribe
I too had a problem months ago and it froze up. I spoke to the company. They said it was because I had too many other programs running and using too much RAM, that it did not leave enuf for EXS. to work properly. They even suggested adding more RAM. They said EXS requires a certain amount of RAM, etc., to function appropriately. Could this be part of your problem too?
ExpressScribe
Yes, I have been using it for almost a year now and have never had any problems.
ExpressScribe
I had this problem just after Christmas when I got a new computer and downloaded ExpressScribe. After searching through their forums, I found out that a lot of people were having a problem, there was some glitch in the program, and everyone was going back and downloading the previous version, which resolved the problem. This worked for me as well. Good luck.
Anything other than ExpressScribe?
Am I the only one that doesn't like ExpressScribe? The audio always sounds very digitized to me. Are there any other better programs out there?
ExpressScribe
Hi. Just an opinion, but why don't you try ExpressScribe first and see if that meets your needs? It is free and it is as good, as far as I can tell. You may have to buy a foot pedal that will work with it, or may not. Mine does not. Try the keyboard controls though and see what you think.
An ExpressScribe Question
How do you set the backspace when I lift my foot off the pedal? Mine is not backspacing at all and I can't' figure out how to set it. Thanks.
contact expressscribe..sm
a lot of these programs were not ready for Vista yet. I would have waited at least a year before buying Vista due to just that reason. Personally maybe you should have found out of ExpressScribe was compatible with Vista prior to buying the laptop with it preinstalled. It would have saved a lot of hassle.
You might try downloading ExpressScribe.
I think it has a few test files when you first down load it that you could practice on.
expressScribe/Quicktime sm
I downloaded ExpressScribe for work but I also have QuickTime so I can use ITunes. The QuickTime seems to over-ride the ExpressScribe and play the audio files which are dictation. I want to use the ExpressScribe so I can use my foot pedal. When I uninstall QuickTime ExpressScribe works, when I reinstall QuickTime only QuickTime works. So QuickTime must be set to default or something.
Anybody know how I can get both these to work or is there another player that will work with the USB footpedal to play the dictations but still allow QuickTime on the computer for other stuff?
Thanks
ExpressScribe hot keys
If you open the ExpressScribe and go to control, then hot key set up you can make it work by assigning keys. I work in MS Word and was using F5 to open files, but when I have the ExpressScribe reduced and hit F5 it opens the ExpressScribe window instead of my Word file. I just assigned a different key to open and close the ExpressScribe. You can also create a new one to assign a file to "done" so you don't have to use your mouse.
ExpressScribe question...sm
I am taking a test for a part time job. It is required to download ExpressScribe to take the test. I also had to install some additional files so that ExpressScibe would recognize .sri files. I did this also. Well when I go to play the file on there there is nothing, and it says under duration of file: 00:00 minutes. It is like the file has nothing on it. Did I do something wrong or is that file corrupated or what?
ExpressScribe is locking up my
Has anyone had this happened to you lately? I have been Express Scribe for years and never had any issues with it. About 2 or 3 weeks ago ES started making my computer run really really really slow. I checked the Task Manager and it says that ES is making my computer run at 100%. Why is this? If I close ES everything runs fine. I contactd tech support 3 times but they have never gotten back to me. I even uninstalled it and reinstalled it and that didn't work either. What should I do? Are there other free transcription audio players out there?
Thanks so much in advance
Download antikeylogger from download.com.
I haven't tried it yet, but it's got good reviews and a 10-use trial.
