Perhaps I'm reading this wrong. It is a trial version, costs $49 for the program?

Need a PDF converter to MSWord. Anyone know of a user friendly converter?

Thank you so much.
Anyone out there using a 9-pin to USB converter - sm
for their foot pedal? Do they work? Just got a new computer and when ordering it did not think about the ports (plus they were not mentioned anywhere in the ordering process from what I recall), there is no 9-pin or printer port  (though that does not matter as my newer printer is USB). But my foot pedal is a 9-pin and works well for all 3 of my PT jobs and associated different software and players. Just afraid that they won't work with a converter, guess I will find out for sure in a few days but thought I'd see if any one else had been through this already. 
I know the USB ports but I need a converter.nm

file converter
You can go on the net and find a free file converter to convert regular files to wav files that can be played on Express Scribe.
Then I think you save the files to that converter and choose what kind of file you want to convert it to. Then when it is saved in your documents, you can upload it to ES.
Didn't you get a converter for 9-pin to USB? sm
If so, I think you need to select USB? Try that.
Need help finding a file converter. sm
Unfortunately, I had to bite the proverbial bullet and buy a new computer, which came of course with Vista. One of my accounts uses dvf files and the sony plug-in for that for use with my gearplayer is of course not yet compatible with Vista. (sigh)
Does anyone know a good converter I could download to convert the dvf files to wav or dss and IS compatible with Vista?
Thanks for any help.
I use a Dynex converter with no problems at all.
You might check out CompUSA if you have one near you that is still open, since they are having the big store closing clearance sales.
foot pedal/converter
I know there is a cable with software, where you connect one to the old computer and one to the new computer and then you can just transfer everything on your old computer to your new one, only costs about 35.00, and I know www.worldstart.com sells them. They say it is the easiest and simplest way to transfer files or anything from one to another computer. Also, check your ports, if one does not work, then you have other choices to choose from to use on your computer. Good luck, hope this helps you.
Try using WinAmp. It has a file converter in it.
I've converted mp3 to .wav and they had a great sound! The multiple types of files are found under "encoding format." Hope this helps!
I just bought the opposite serial to usb converter. You would think they would have the other way
too.
I play dvf's with Express Scribe, you don't need a converter
and it's a free download for the Express Scribe voice file player. I think it's at www.nch.com.au
Do google search for Switch Sound File Converter...
and follow instructions - VERY easy!
Abacus is not free. It is $20 but worth it. You can download a trial version free which does not h
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.
Free? As in, free trial? Otherwise, I don't think you'll find a spellcheck software that's

Check out the free demo of MTStars FlashType. It's free for 7 days.
Then, if you like it, you can purchase it for $59.95. See link below.

There are free ones out there. I have been using a free one for 5 years. sm
Just have to research FTP server software.
free? We are not *free* - what planet R U on?
Free? Liberal? You know nothing about me......I'm a 4th generation American so don't get up in my face......
We have a bad bad reputation today....and we do NOT HAVE 60 ALLIES/COUNTRIES BACKING US UP IN IRAQ....you better open up your eyes to the REAL stats. Perhaps in 2003 we had 60 allies/countries backing us up....NAME 60 today. I can name maybe 10 countries.......
You are terribly off-base.........even the soldiers have spoken up stating *unfortunately, this has become OUR vietnam* -

AVG free
I used McAfee, Norton, Panda, etc, all types of viruses and worms slipped through and caused my computer to crash. I now use AVG free edition, free upgrade every day and free check every day of my computer, that I set at at 4:00 a.m. If in doubt try www.worldstart.com, lots of computer geeks there and they will answer your questions about computers, etc on their message board. They have helped me a few times with reliable, good information about many different problems on my computer. Good luck.

Nothing is free!!
My family is in the restaurant business and I can cook like a maniac .. so screw the free meal stuff!! I am over 50 .. look great for my age .. make very good money .. have no bills .. and though my daughter lives here she is 32 and wishes I would meet someone and cut her a break!! I was a nurse in another life. Do I want to take care of someone whose body is in worse shape than mine .. no; do I want to cook for someone who makes a mess I have to clean just because the moron breathes .. no; do I want to hear the constant whining, burping, farting, dribbling, and all that other geezer stuff .. a thousand times no!! So, I find a guy who is 10 years younger than me and he is crazy about me and likes my old body, and we get along great .. but I have issues with the 10 years and I feel I am more than a wild piece of keister and nothing is free .. and that is on a good day!! LOL! Oh, yes, and he is cute as a button too .. I must be over the edge. Maybe not 
Can anyone tell me what the name of the free SM
wav player is? I think it is E something or the other.
Thanks for your help.

Please tell me the name of a FREE
Thanks!
This one is not free. If someone KNOWS of one
Thanks.
I don't think there is another free one
There are different footpedals available though, and not all are interchangeable between transcription modules. I have two pedals, one that I ordered to use with Express Scribe that connects via serial port, and then I got a new computer that did not have the serial port and I also began using the Olympus module, and so I ordered the Olympus pedal, which has two connector ends that you can switch so that you can connect via either serial port or USB.
I am not sure why the pedals are not interchangeable (some of them can be used with more than one module, but I just do not know how to tell the difference other than ordering the pedal based on recommendations from the software manuf. of the transcription module).
I also have had a problem with the Olympus pedal that started after I began loading .wav files into it. It is made to be used with .dss files, but plays .wav and other file types as well, but when I have been away from the computer for a while or when I have closed the programs and reopen them, I often times will have to reach behind my tower and unplug the pedal and then plug it back in. I am not sure what has caused the problem though because for the first couple of months using the Olympus I never had to do that.
AVG is free

...or you can do it for free (sm)
by eating less and exercising more. I'm not being a smarty, but this method had me from 235.5 pounds to the 119 pounds I am now, so I'm just speaking from experience. I even kept it off through a pregnancy because I learned how to eat regular food in an intelligent way.
These weight loss plans do NOT offer the secret code. It's within the person who wants to lose weight!
I'm getting it for free
We bought a couple of new HP computers this fall and we get a a copy for free, which we should get within a couple of weeks. We will probably install in on a spare computer to see what it is like before putting it on our new ones. Hopefully the software that we use for work will be compatible with it!
Do you want to pay for it or want for free?

No fee; it is free
There is no fee; you must have clicked the wrong button. I'm sending the signatures myself (out of my pocket) to DC. Try again; no fee to sign it. It is free. http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/medrecords/
I use AVG Free.
I bought a refurbished hard drive and loaded microsoft office 2003. So many companies are not allowing Vista or 2007, so I felt this was the way to go. I have had good luck so far and a great running system.
I use AVG Free also. I also have several other
programs for adware, malware, and spyware. I usually search Kim Komando's site for things like that. I find that she is pretty much on the mark with her choices, recommendations, etc. When I hear that I "need" to install something, I figure if I don't know what it will do or not do, then I just leave it alone. A good running computer is a happy computer. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Not OP but I have done this for free too
I go in through the IRS's website and select Free E-File and go from there. You can choose from several different software programs. I have used H&R Block for the past 3 years this way and have never paid a dime.
AVG Free
This is an anti-virus program that has been recommended by all my "tech gurus" including Hiwired.com -- its free and comes HIGHLY recommended.
Hey a free one!
I'll check that out too. Thanks!
free
I think it expires in 60 or 90 days. Then you have to pay
Free help
One of the best anti-virus programs out there is AVG 8.0, and you can download it for free. Combined with Spy Sweeper by Webroot, your PC will be completely protected. Ad Aware is another good one.
Today I have been poring over job listing sites looking at the openings posted, and I picked up several viruses. There is so much junk out there....
RE: Free
They will replace it for free. I didn't know that. You just contact them and they will replace it. I just kept buying them.
?? A free AV that did that...sm
..would hardly be likely to sell its "paid" version to anyone. Nothing like that could go unnoticed by the technical community and their reputation would be trashed instantly.
AVG supports its free version through the sales of its paid version and offers the free version as a service to the computing community. In doing so, their free version has a very good reputation. I recommend the paid version simply because it is a much more complete package of protection.
Are you looking for free ones?
Googling found one that's $18 for a CD manual, but I didn't stumble across anything free.
free software....
I guess I'm just ditzy.... but what is all this about the software... how do I access this?? Thanks for your patience!
free software
Oh - gotcha. Thanks.... but what is everyone going on about the new features?? I'm still lost on that -
You can try ShortCuts for free....sm

Since ADVANCE is free, there would
be little immediate impact if we cancel our subscriptions. Contact the advertisers and express your displeasure. They're the ones who provide the income stream for ADVANCE. They need to know that the people they're trying to reach are displeased and that their companies are associated with an extremely unpopular position.
I use Free MP Count
A long time ago I used Sylcount, then I used DocuCount on my old computer but when I upgraded to a new computer/software, I had to find something else. I compared Abacus and MP Count and I, personally, was happier with the consistent counts I got with MP Count. Also, Joe Vann supports his product well - even the free version! It makes for a very professional Invoice/billing statement that I use for my own local account.

Why pay at all? Grisoft's AVG is free.
McAfee was good back in the olden days of computing. I haven't used them since then. Norton is OK. Honestly, I dislike Norton because it's annoying and expensive.
I use Grisoft's AVG for antivirus, Sygate Personal Firewall, and AdAware/Spyboy Search & Destroy for spyware. All free. All work great.
You know -- I'm free to work for however
many companies I want.
If I made $50K a month from 5 companies and you only make but $500 from 1 company -- that's my reward for being resourceful, for working hard, for doing the work that is offered when it is offered.
Nice thing about this country is you are free -- free to be as rich as you want to be or as poor as you want to be!! I love it!!
There is a free 30 day trial you
can download to your computer. But it is missing a couple of features, can't remember which ones
Are there free FTP programs?
