The auto backspace cannot be adjusted to an acceptable level so to re-listen to just one word it backs up so far you have to re-listen to a whole sentence over and over on the shortest setting. I don't know if this is an older version of the program (runs on XP). Perhaps they have corrected this in upgrades. It is exasperating and very time consuming. Other that that it is pretty dependable and very easy.

A note on editing: At first you will make less than min. wage. With experience if you can get yourself where you can proof as you go (not possible with really sloppy dictators) then you can make more than min. wage, but not nearly what we made before.

Good luck. I wonder if this account is in WA?

don't you have the little 'feet' icon? - XMT

that is where the setting can be changed...it goes from 1 to 3 I think but you have to right click it.

ExEditor Freezing Up
Jun 02, 2015

Anybody using ExEditor for TT/Imedx having problems with their screen freezing up every minute or so after 6 pm CST? I've been noticing this for a while, and it's really, really getting annoying. My screen will freeze, then the IE icon starts spinning, screen blinks, then everything okay for a little bit more. It doesn't happen when I am doing a typed report or working on my Escription account, just the speech reports for ExEditor. Everything works fine until 6, and then whammo - ...

Dictaphone Won't Rewind All The Way!

I usually work with mp3s, and now this Dictaphone is driving me crazy.  I have no manual. Why does it not rewind all the way?  When I want to review a part of the tape, I push rewind and it will only rewind a little and then beep at me! There is an 'erase' button.  Does that have anything to do with anything? This dictaphone is really old, I think.  Pitney Bowes 3170.   If anybody has any ideas I would be much obliged!! ...
