SoftScript shorthand users

I use Shorthand with the new Enterprise system. SH seems really sluggish on ISR reports. Frequently it will not expand the shortcut and needs to be repeated, or I just give up and type it "longhand." I have tried several Preference settings but nothing seems to help. Also deleted all unnecessary programs and do not run any other program with SH and EP, cleared all cookies, keep the computer maintained (defrag, cleanup). Before calling IT about this, thought I would ask here first. Th ...

For example, I have my headings entered in as follows: xpmh = PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: I will type my abbreviation and hit my space bar twice and while the abbreviation is still expanding, I will start my sentence, but if I hit the shift key and the first letter of the first word of my sentence too soon, I will get stuck in caps lock without the caps lock button being pushed. Then if I hit shift and any letter (to capitalize), it will all be in lowercase as if caps lock is on, bu ...

Anybody have a Mac? Do you love it? I've only read positive reviews by Mac owners. and the peoplle i know who are Mac owners really love them as well. Any quirks or downsides to owning one/using one? What are the upsides to owning a Mac? Are they worth the money? What are the positives to owning a Mac? Thanks for any insight. ...

What are your average lines per hour for editing? Acute care. We are transitioning over and most dictations have not gone into editing yet. We are curious as to what your productivity is. So far the drafts are amazingly good. This is all new to us. I have read through the archives but they are not very recent. Thank you to anyone who answers. ...

I started with a company using BayScribe. I have a rather unusual problem. The BayScribe expander will not function in the document. I can bring it up via Control F3 and can add entries, but they will not expand. When my machine is entered remotely, that user IS able to expand, but within the same session, I still cannot expand. I have uninstall, reinstalled, Norton off, IE setting fine. Toggling on and off makes no difference. I have been troubleshootin ...

Having been away from Bayscribe for awhile, I cannot remember the keystroke(s), but can you tell me how, after you highlight a word or phrase, that you can change the case, ie, from lower, to upper, to mixed? Thanks. ...

Hi Everyone - I need some help from the DocQScribe users. I had a little trouble with my computer earlier today. Got it up and running again, but now when I go into DQS, everything works except for Control+J (Jump) and Control+D (to go to demo screen). Is this a problem in a setting for DQS? Is it my computer? My keyboard? I also use Shorthand word expander and have checked all the settings in there they all look good. Anyone have any ideas? I'm switch ...

I'm curious. What is your ASR editing style? 1) Just read and fix, without listening, but listen to certain parts if question. 2) Read against voice everytime and fix, then send. 3) Read against voice everytime and fix, then read against voice again, then send. 4) Read against voice, fix, then just read without a second listen. 5) Other. Explain. I'm tired of ASR, and just curious how others are doing it! ...

Could someone tell me when load and delete voice files into ExpressScribe, how the heck do I get it to save the original date and time stuff was recorded instead of changing it to the date and time I brought it into the program. Frustrated. Thanks all. ...

I'm trying to get a new system set up on my new computer and was just curious about Benchmark. Does anyone currently use it and, if so, do you find it a useful resource? I hate to spend $200 on something that isn't actually helpful and a time-saver. If you use it, can you share which features it offers that you find the most beneficial? And, conversely, if it has any features you find not so helpful? Do you consider it to have been a good investment? Th ...

Hello. I'm wondering if anyone uses a laptop for work and if so any suggestions on the best ones, value and performance. I am starting a new job and was told a laptop would be fine. I would only use it a small amount of time and generally use my desktop computer, but would like the option, without spending a fortune or having it breakdown. Thanks for any thoughts or advice. ...

Has anyone using EditScript 10 in the last few days noticed that it is acting very badly? It is even making my keyboard act up. It is not occuring with versions 9 or 11, only 10. ...

I just have to send out some Monday wishes for all those with XP who woke up to a nice e-mail that they would have to acquire a new computer. Considering it is barely after Christmas, and it just is one thing followed by another, I'm not sure how they expect you to do this on less pay, and I'm sure this created stress for a lot of people. And I just thought some warm wishes and prayers in your direction were warranted this morning. :( ...

When I press L, I would like to get left but get "like" instead. R gives me right immediately. I tried to delete "like" but cannot. Can you tell me if it is possible to make the L give me left? Thank you - :) ...

I am looking for Instant Text users who may be able to get me headed in the right direction in regards to compilations. I have been using Instant Text for quite a while now, only adding things on the fly, or using the enrich feature. I do not understand the compilation feature it seems. Whenever, I try to utilize this feature I come up with phrases that I really will never hear again, odd things within reports. For example, the patient's dog's name - lol!&n ...

Does anyone know a way to get around the lock on copying or printing documents transcribed in EditScript? I do the copying process as a means of building up Dragon document analysis (once it's done the document is destroyed). Doing this would have a huge impact on my production (double or triple it), so I think you can see why I'm hoping this can be done. ...

Does anyone know what the latest edition of internet explorer bayscribe will support? I currently have 6.0 installed but I keep getting messages on other web pages that my browser is too outdated to download/view these web pages. Some pages take forever to open and others won't download at all. Is Bayscribe compatible with IE 7 or 8? ...

It is pretty much a "cake" job BUT I would like to have some sort of manual. Does anyone know where I could get one?? It's a 3 person office, 1 of which, will be out for a while. That's where I come in. I am going in today to get familiar with it. But I would like to have reference material to look at. The woman I am filling in for coud not find it at the time of my interview yesterday. I'd appreciate any help, thanks. ...

I am trying to learn Shorthand and I need the insert key for a combination keystroke. Is the only insert key the imbedded one? My brain is already on overload. If this is the case, can you tell me a quick way to program this to use with the alt key? ...

I now work where outside expanders are not an option and I'm beginning to think I can't even type without my Instant Text. Anybody else out there been through this and is there any hope at the end of the tunnel? I'm just finding it almost impossible to adapt, not to mention remember the shortcuts on a regular expander (AutoCorrect) - ugh! ...

Anyone currently using editscript. My company will be switching over. Just wondering is it easy to use, do you get good line counts? I'm nervous about the switch. ...

Fellow Enterprise platform users, have you ever lost the red box around the text and wondered why? Once it is gone you can no longer move about the report with ease, the facility to go to a particular place by Alt-R or double click no longer works. If anyone has figured out why this happens - i.e., have I inadvertently hit a combination of keystrokes that caused this, have I deleted some bit of ISR that was crucial to the red text box? Very confusing and when you are in a 10 minute long report ...

I am wondering if there any Nuance employees that are on eScription accounts? What is your experience? Is it better/easier/faster than eBtxt? Are you able to make a decent line count? ...

I hope this isn't a silly question. I'm going to ask our graduates this question too, but I want to get a wide range of answers and viewpoints on this. For those of you who are using SR, how much keyboarding is required? In other words, could a person who types 30-40 wpm use it productively? ...

I've been using an old version(4.3) with the OK of the company I transcribe for. But I'm now having so many technical issues that I need to install the upgrade of 4.97.394. A previous upgrade required the use of the InScribe internal player. I tried this, bought 2 different foot pedals, and neither one worked for me, as both interfered with my expansions. One pedal I tried was the Start-Stop. If I was in the process of starting or stopping play at the same time I wa ...

The new 6.1 upgrade would not jive with mine, so am receiving a new pc from MQ soon. Just curious how many others have been unable to work because of this upgrade to 6.1. And for those who currently use a company pc, did it arrive with the software installed? Do you think your keystrokes are being monitored? ...

I just downloaded and started using Express Scribe and am wondering if there's a way to set it so that it automatically backspaces a second or two when you lift up on the pedal? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. ...

The company I work for just switched to the Emdat/Inscribe platform 2 weeks ago and as such we are still adjusting :-)Things have worked fine so far, but when trying to download dictations after logging in, I keep getting the same message..."There was a problem downloading the file. Would you like to retry?" (Of course I have, but it never loads.) The dictation tries to load (I see it in the green bar at the bottom) but never makes it. Other MTs have had the same problem today but a System Rest ...

Hi. My work computer is unstable, freezing up, not able to run programs, etc., so I'll be buying a new one this evening. I currently use Windows XP and MS Office and it seems like I was told that's what I needed for compatibility, but I don't know if I'm rembering that correctly as it's been years ago. Anyway, I'm sure a new computer will not come with Windows XP - and I'm not sure exactly what is compatible with the Emdat program. If you u ...
