When testing for a job, how do I download dictation to play in Express Scribe?

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 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!

Anyone get this newer version to work w/o buying anything? Thanks in advance! ...

Can anybody help me with installing express scribe etc. I have over 30 years of acute care medical transcription but computer technology drives me nuts. I am use to having an IT department to call.

Now I have a registration number but I don't know where in my computer this downloaded to and where to go to pull up the Expres Scribe software. Can anyone tell me how to do this. I have running on Windows 7. ...

I'm in the process of trying to find a job and need to test for a few companies. I no longer have Express Scribe on my computer, so today went to the site to download it. Webroot (my virus software) blocked the site and told me there is a "known threat" there. I know sometimes virus software gives you bogus warnings, but now I do not feel comfortable downloading it...woe is me :( Has anyone else gotten this message lately...or downloaded it in the last few days ...

One of those MTtest sites. Called their help desk and they said a lot of people have trouble, not to worry and try this. I tried that. Nothing. They said to call back and they would work it out. I don't know if this is worth it. The testing portions were fine, went quickly but just trying to get the transcription part up is time consuming and frustrating. Anyone else have problems with this? ...

Hi, I bought ES Pro in 2012 and have not had any problems with playing dictation. I also have DSS to WAV to convert files.

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 ...
