DNS11 locked by another Windows Log-in session (4 Comments)

Topic by Martin Burrow

In the past I've kept my user profile on an external hard drive. I decided to move it into my documents folder on my SSD drive hoping it would make it start-up faster. Since doing that when I start DNS 11 for the first time but always get the message saying: "Cannot access user profile and that DNS 11 is locked by another Windows login session". But if I quit DNS 11 and then relaunch it everything opens fine and the profile is loaded. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks

Topic by Phill Birch

Hello,

Windows 7 Ultimate / DNS 13 Premium

I am having difficulty with Dragon when waking my computer from Sleep Mode, whilst logged on.

It tells me that the user profile is locked with another session and cannot be accessed. The only solution appears to be to log off and log back on again.

This rather defeats the object of Sleep Mode, in which I can leave my documents, spreadsheets and webpages open when going to sleep, and which are then all immediately available in seconds after waking the computer. 

Does anybody know of a solution to this, other than exiting Dragon before sleep? 

Using Microsoft Word 2010 styles with DNS 12 (3 Comments)

Topic by Gary Morin

 

I like to use styles in Microsoft Word 2010 correctly, i.e..  use preset styles  to define fonts,  text size,  weight etc.
 
I find I can is use some styles but not all,  I've tried a number of methods.
 I know I can change the look of the text   by changing different elements using  DNS 12,  I would prefer to use the correct styles.
 
if I show the home tab I can use click " style name" and it will pick up the styles displayed on the ribbon,  however this does not pick up the additional styles that are on the second or third row accessed by clicking the more button on the ribbon.
 
I need a fast way of to select the styles I want to use.
 
Any suggestions?
 
Thanks

Hi all,

If I were to switch from the Mac running DD4 to Windows running DNS13, would I be able to export my various macros and used them on Windows? The export format a file extension .commandtext, and it is an XML file.

On the Mac I am using all 4 types of macro: keystrokes, URL, BASH script, Applescript. I can convert the AppleScript to BASH scripts pretty easily to make this work.

Cheers

Dragon Professional Individual - Italian

Topic by Liza Diana

Hi! is there anybody out there who has Dragon 14 - Professional Individual Italian? I am having problems with the US English profile Read That command (it does not work and gives the 'TTS Engine could not be initialized' error message) , while the Italian profile and the UK English profile Read That commands work perfectly). I think it must be a bug in the software, but was told by the Italian Nuance helpdesk (even after a cobrowse session) that  it must be an authorization problem with my laptop but would like to hear from other users.

Thanks!

What are GZ files filling up hard drive (located in C:\ProgramData\...\dataarchive folder)? (2 Comments)

Topic by John Hupp

Running Dragon NaturallySpeaking 13 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, I find that the hard drive is filling up with *.GZ files located in the C:\ProgramData\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking13\dataarchive folder.  

These files have names like 322B8F32-CA4D-46A7-83B3-EEC7E440E34B__US_English__BestMatch_V__Southern_US__USA__0159__01D0BE10E1A8082B.gz.  They are 80-250MB apiece, and there are currently 198 of them.  They occupy 26% of the boot drive.

Google searches have not given me any info about these files.

What are these files?  Can I can configure Dragon to put them on a roomier drive?  Or can I delete or manually move many of them?  What would be the consequences of doing so?

Dragon Professional Individual 14 Transcription Training Always Fails (4 Comments)

When I try to add a new transcription source to my profile, for a Sony ICD-PX820 voice recorder (which by the way I have been using successfully for many years with DNS 12), I get the error message "The audio file doesn't contain enough speech. Please choose another recording." It does this for every recording I've tried, and they're all clean voice recordings, in MP3 format, recorded at 192kbps, which I believe is the recorder's default.

Should I just quit trying to use Dragon? Solved - mostly (1 Comment)

Topic by Miriam O'Brien

I have used Dragon once successfully with the latest version. Older versions worked very well, but the latest version doesn't. I'm trying to use Dragon 14 on Windows 10. It worked fine once only, a couple of weeks ago just using the laptop's microphone. Since then I got a message that the profile is damaged. So I set up a new profile, and tried to train it, but didn't get to first base. 

Could it be a conflict with Cortana? I can't remember if I had that operating two weeks ago, though I think I did. Cortana recognises my speech very well, but Dragon doesn't.

I suppose I just have to stop trying. Going by the messages in this forum there's not much hope of getting support. It's a shame and quite frustrating, after forking out for the product. This used to be a good application. I'll not be recommending it unless there's a solution to this.

Update: I fished out an old Plantronics usb headset and am now using that very successfully with Dragon 14. I wish I knew how I got the laptop mike to work, because that's much more convenient. However, the headset works so at least I can use the program again.

Topic by Josh Willis

Again, let me say this *** NUANCE HAS THEE WORST SUPPORT OF ALL TIME*** not only did they outsource their support but they also for over a year have failed to give any legit response regarding why the "check for updates" for version 11 does not work. I've seen people posting on these forums for over a year about this issue, with Nuance telling folks that the update server is down, or that DNS v11 is no longer supported and that upgrading to 12.5 is the only option - what a scam. If there is ever a company that provides a DNS service outside of Nuance then I'll be sure everyone I know switches over... Until Nuance can actually prove they have good support (or any for that matter), I'll not be interested in anymore of their products. This is terrible support - there should at least be someone monitoring the forum boards...

I'm not sure if there has been an update, but I now find that when I open file explorer I can't say the name of the sub folder / file and automatically go to that sub folder / file. This used to work very efficiently. All I get is 'Please say that again'. It's the same in this dialog box as well, I'm having to type this post.

I have a windows 10 machine running gmail in chrome.  If I start Dragon 12 and then open gmail using chrome the email screen is a solid black.  I got the latest extension from the google store with no success.

If I open gmail with chrome and then open Dragon it works fine.  It is a real pain for my user to keep closing dragon to open his email.

Is there a way to change the vocabulary editor's order of preference? For instance, I would like the word respondent to always appear as Respondent as the 1st choice so that I do not repeatedly have to say CAP.  Or is there possibly another workaround?

I have the need to do a lot of serial numbers with long number strings. I have gotten the numbers to display correctly (as digits rather than words) but now if I say "M1234567890" it displays as "M 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0" (with a space between each number). How do I get it to display without the spaces?

Good morning.  I had to reinstall Dragon after a computer virus a week or so ago, so please bear with me. I cannot dictate into MS Word.  I had to install the add in before and remember it was a quick fix, but don't remember how.

Thanks for your assistance.

A number of times I have been unable to start dictation from the "microphone off" position when the program was open overnight.  All parts of the program were unresponsive.  Each time I had to "end task" to close Dragon. When I reload Dragon, it generally works fine.  Lately I have received the error message shown above when I try to reopen it.  Each time, I had to restart my computer and Dragon opened normally and worked fine.  

2 questions...

1) How do I stop the program from freezing.  Is it because the program is open overnight?

2) Is there something I can do if and when the error message appears again?

Thank you

UFC Fight Night 89 Live Stream is here. Frankie Edgar demands Conor McGregor's days contending at featherweight are a distant memory, regardless of the way that he is the division champion with no title protections to talk about.

Keeping in mind "The Answer" likewise trusts "Infamous" is evading him no matter what, he additionally recommends the Irishman hasn't contended at 145 pounds in a while - liking to carry out his specialty at welterweight - in light of the fact that he has everything to lose.

Watch here:

Numerous misfortunes at 170 pounds, be that as it may, won't influence him much.

That is on the grounds that he has worked in reasons in the event that he keeps on battling greater men than him, as Edgar as of late illuminated on The MMA Hour.

Conor was compelled to tap to Diaz at UFC 196 after the accommodation expert secured a back exposed stifle on the 145-pound champion prior this year (see it).

With the two men are set to run it back at UFC 202 on Aug. 20, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada (points of interest), mainstream thinking is that win, lose, or draw, McGregor's next session will be a title unification match against the champ of Jose Aldo versus Frankie Edgar - which will be for the between time division strap at UFC 200 on July 9, additionally in "Wrongdoing City."

For Edgar, the fantasy situation is taking out Aldo, then getting his quite sought title battle against Conor at UFC 205 on Nov. 12, 2016, which is set to pop off at Madison Garden Arena in New York City.

Obviously, "Famous" still needs to consent to a title safeguard, something he has neglected to do in any advancement all through his profession subsequent to winning belts in numerous divisions.

Having conveyed an astounding beating to previous Welterweight champion Johny Hendricks, Karate whiz Stephen Thompson now has his sights set on late title challenger Rory MacDonald, whom he will tackle in unfriendly domain this Saturday evening (June 18, 2016) in UFC Fight Night 89's headliner inside TD Place Arena in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

Likewise, Donald Cerrone and the resurgent Patrick Cote will crash in a 170-pound standoff, in addition to a surefire light heavyweight slugfest that pits previous authority Steve Bosse against regularly diverting artist Sean O'Connell.

The last four "Prelims" undercard matches (look at the initial four on Fight Pass right here) will effortlessness FOX Sports 2, which hasn't seen UFC activity in a long time. In case you're sufficiently fortunate to really have that system on your link package, this is what you must anticipate.
