Ipswitch is a HUGE JOKE - Thanks Amy!


Posted: Apr 24, 2013

I can't get to anything but the first page of my inbox.  Oops, now can't even get that. Maybe I'll sit here and work on my Quality essay.

same here - would love to check my email

We are in that "handful" of people still having issues that she was talking about.

I think she had it backwards. - Silly Amy!

Good thing a mistake on her part doesn't cost her any of her salary! Whew!

You're right! Takes forever to log in. - dnr

Then, many times, when I try to send a message or reply to a message, it won't do it!

I put Thunderbird on my work computer, and that downloads the email quickly and sends my emails quickly. Google Mozilla Thunderbird if you want the program (free) and set up passwords, etc., as instructed in the Windows Live instructions we received (should be available on MM Central).

I don't always want to go to my work computer to check for email, and sometimes I'm not at home and want to check if my TSM approved my makeup time so I know if I have to go home to work. Of course, though, my TSM has not answered this week's makeup time email I sent. I really wonder what the TSM does all day. Back when we had a CCM, my CCM was always timely in answering the emails, and that was when they had to service the hospitals too! My CCM went to the client service aspect when they split up CCM into client and TSM, so I got a new TSM.

Maybe we should flood Remedy with tickets. LOL - will not do any good

We'll either get an email the next day with issue resolved and nothing has been changed, or we'll get an email or a call letting us know it is something wrong with us and not their program.

They are not very good at reinventing the wheel and I wish they would break down and spend the money to get good software ----- LIKE software that can COUNT EVERYTHING. It's lie that they can't count headers. Sylcount can do it, and the document, at one point, is an rtf doc and Word doc, both of which Sylcount can fully count.

Have you tried cleaning out your inbox? Mine use - to do the same thing until I

started deleting messages on a regular basis or organizing them into folders. If you have more than 250 messages in your inbox, it clogs it up and you cant get past the first page let alone the 3rd, 4th, 5th etc.

Once I started deleting emails and adding important ones to folders and kept it below 250 I stopped having problems with it. Even the Windows Live works better now. Before the Windows Live would always freeze up and take forever to log on, then I logged into IP Switch and cleaned out my box and both have worked perfectly ever since.

It's also riddled with spyware! I hate it!! - PC2slow4me

How can you tell there is spyware? Its generic web-based - email system. How can you tell there is spyware?

[ In Reply To ..]

Unless you use it for personal email, there is nothing to spy on. - I get maybe 2 emails per day, sometimes none.

Sometimes supervisor sends regular updates, sometimes she does'nt. QC coach may send stuff regarding changes to accounts, but even she does not email much.

wow, my QC sends multiple every day - do this, no this, no that, i mean this

[ In Reply To ..]
so and so wants this, dont forget this, you didnt do that...
The team I use to work on was like that, lots of emails - but not this one. Hardly ever hear anything.
[ In Reply To ..]
old CCM sent out status emails all the time and QC coach was always sending notes out about stuff pretaining to our accounts, but this team not so much.
Use this to your advantage. If you mess up, say you were looking - for the email with the instructions but
[ In Reply To ..]
you couldnt find it. Use the fact you get +++ emails to explain anything the accuse you of or blame you for. "Oh yea, I thought I saw that email but when I tried to find it to verify what I should do, I couldnt find the darn thing."
If it's not in the CP, too bad. I refuse to sift through emails. - dnr
[ In Reply To ..]
And, I'm not going to keep a binder full of the idiosyncrasies and hope that I remember there is something special to remember.

There have been times when an email has been sent with such information and I have noted that it needs to be in the CP. Ridiculously, it has taken quite a bit of convincing. Heck, if is outside of my usual accounts, how an I supposed to know about the contents of an obscure email not sent to my group. Plus, these days I'm lucky to get a shift of familiar accounts.
I didnt say to actuallyu read the emails. Just use the +++ - emails being sent to your advantage. nm

If they complain you are too slow, blame it on trying to - locate emails. nm

When I get buildup of email, I cant go past 1st page too. - Clear out your inbox and delete any SM

[ In Reply To ..]
you dont need, like the cheerleader emails from Princess Amy. Go over to the left where it says New Folder and make some new folders. Like General, special instructions, Fluency issues, job issues, pay issues, and my fave, useless emails, for those one that you are afraid to dump but that really as useless.

Keep the number of emails down in your inbox and you will be able to see all the pages.

I called helpdesk about it and he said - no work

[ In Reply To ..]
that no one else had a problem with Ipswitch. We checked my internet speeds and they were beyond fast. On the phone with him over a half hour and he told me to call my internet service provider and see what they have to say. Well.... I don't have a problem with anything but the company email!

Nice to know it's not just me...

Of course it is not just you. It is NEVER just you. The 1st pg in the - book of excuses they are given SM

[ In Reply To ..]
is "it's just you, nobody else is having a problem." When you hear that, you know many, many are having the same problem.

Has anyone been able to get in? - still down here nm

[ In Reply To ..]
nm

Having problems again. - no work

[ In Reply To ..]
Can't send email, can't open emails, can't log out. Guess I'll call helpdesk again and sit on the phone with them and collect some downtime/support pay. I have NO JOBS AVAILABLE anyway...

Ipswitch Trouble
Jun 09, 2013

Ipswitch won't send email, just gets stuck in the sending mode.  No error messages, nothing.  Just that circle going around and around. Tech support asked me to send an email to myself while on the phone with him.  I did that, and it worked instantly.  I tried it again after I hung up, and it wouldn't work.  The same thing now. This is so frustrating.  Any advice would really be appreciated...Thanks!! ...

HUGE Laughs......SM

I'm in an HIT program after doing transcription for about 5 years and deciding that I'm tired of being a wandering sheep, and I just read the first chapter in one of my textbooks, which says that "speech recognition software is 95% to 99% accurate."  I'll be pointing out in my class that that is a grievous error. ...

TSM Is A Joke

First, TSM says no changes to accounts. Then without warning main account goes POOF. She then makes up excuse after excuse, blah, blah, blah.

She says she is making conference calls but never have I ever received a single phone call. Too bad she still has a job.  ...

Hospital Pay--is This A JOKE?
Dec 30, 2009

Okay, so halfway out of curiosity, I applied to my local hospital, which is a large regional hospital, for an MT job.  They wanted a "seasoned" MT with CMT, who transcribes 250 lines an hour.  Okay, I thought, they might actually compensate better than I think since they have well-defined high standards.  WRONG!  They are offering $11.35 AN HOUR!  What a slap in the face!  You get a whole extra dollar if you work 2nd shift.  What an insult--they just have ...
