Express Scribe could not load any wav files on the laptop

Hello, I am finally getting my Dr. to move into the 20th century. Have a new Phillips 9600 digital recorder, new foot pedal and headset and downloaded Express Scribe. ExpressScribe will not play any files I try and transfer. I get an error telling me I need to go to their website and get a component file for dss.322.exs yes it says dss.322 not dss.32 LOL THere is NO such file there. Anybody have any suggestions?? I really dont want to have to pay like 30 b ...

I have voice files sent to me that I cannot play in Windows Media or Express Scribe. They will load in ES but show 00:00 duration. I thought possibly it was an encryption error as they possibly they are coming that way to be because they are secure but I sent to a friend and she can open them and play them. Windows Media states something about a missing codecs and I have installed if known codecs to man (I am on Windows XP). They just will not play or show the duration etc.&nbs ...

I recently downloaded the free version of Express Scribe. The "Welcome" message plays with no problem, but any file that I try to load plays super-fast. I am pretty sure I checked all the settings, such as F10 (normal play back speed) and the speed control in the bottom right hand corner. If anyone can help with this I would appreciate it. I did send an email to tech support but will probably never get an answer b/c I didn't purchase it. ...

I am upgrading to a new computer finally with Windows 7 and IE9. I was thrilled when everything was loading up fine-but the new version of Express Scribe will NOT play DSS files!

I have been sent a number of .wav files. Express scribe can't play them, and is opening them as multi-channel files. Windows Media player isn't playing them. VLC isn't. Real Player isn't.

MTSO is able to play them okay on her wave player. & ...

Hello All, I am hoping someone might have some quick help for me. I have just started a new account, did a test file last night, downloaded an MP3 file to Express Scribe.

I have just started having trouble with Express Scribe. Regardless of whether I am using the foot pedal or the function keys, it is as if the program does not recognize what I am doing. Sometimes it takes multiple presses of the stop button or taps on the footpedal to get the dictation to stop. Sometimes when I press reverse on the footpedal I end up playing or fast forwarding. At first, restarting my computer seemed to fix the problem, but now nothing seems to make much difference. Any suggesti ...
