User questions & answers

Question:	Are they're limitations on what type of headset can be used with this software? I have a Plantronics Bluetooth headset that I would like to use
Answer:	To answer your question, no, there are no limitations on the headset, a good quality Bluetooth headset should work just fine.However, it is important to note that noise levels present in the audio stream will negatively affect the accuracy.If in general, you are using an audio input device that delivers at least "FM" radio level performance, which is 32kHz at 8 or 16 bit, then you can get good performance. Hope that helps.
Question:	I need to write a thesis will Dragon setup reference page and the correct format for the paper
Answer:	Hmmm...I think there might be some misunderstanding on your part as to what Dragon does.Also it would help if you provided some more information, like what program you will be using to type your thesis.Dragon does not control your page setup, you do, Dragon just let's you speak instead of type.Hope that helps.
Question:	Can I install Dragon 13 Premium in several computers? If so, how many
Answer:	When I bought Dragon NaturallySpeaking premium 11 I called them and was told I could install it on as many computers as I used but that I was only one allowed to use it. Also version 11 is much better than version 12.
Question:	Is it worth it to get v13 over v12? Whats the difference? Also, is there an advantage to gettting premium
Answer:	This is a massive difference between v12 & v13. This new version is more stable, quicker, recognizes your words faster and is more accurate. The premium version allows you to use a digital voice recorder and you can than load the files from the recorder into your computer and have it transcribe the files. Some people who already have v12 already installed may need to go to the Nuance/dragon website and download a special uninstall program to completely remove v12. I purchased v13 the day it was released but this issue may already be fixed on later releases of v13.

User questions & answers

Question:	Compatible with tablet and PC? Would like to use for both devices
Answer:	I only use it with my PC in my Mac laptop. Don’t know if it is can be used with your tablet I’m sure there’s a way to do it though.
Question:	Does it works on surface pro because its on a table? I have learning disblility
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Does this have blue tooth capability
Answer:	You can use Dragon with a Bluetooth microphone. This recorder does not have Bluetooth compatibility, however we gave some recorders with Bluetooth option. Or you can use a smartphone with the Philips SpeechLive App and record with a Bluetooth headset.
Question:	As Secretary for an organization, if I use the digital recorder to record the meeting can Dragon Naturally Speaking transcribe the notes directly
Answer:	In my experience this would produce a mess. Dragon is intended to be used by *one* person. You train it to recognize what you mean by what you say. Dragon 13 is said to be excellent (I use an earlier model that's very good), but can't really be used to catch several voices. And don't forget some people will be interrupting each other, talking over one another, and so on! Dragon has no way to sort that out.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the benefit for getting disc versus download
Answer:	On multiple installs we have found the wire headset works much better than the bluetooth.
Question:	Does this work with Word
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Does this only work with Apple Pages 4.3, or does it also work with Microsoft Word on my Mac
Answer:	No, I do not believe it works like that. You have to download the software to the computer and it only opens up on the computer that it is downloaded to. I can tell you that one disk gives you the ability to download the software to 2 separate computers though.
Question:	Is this an upgrade, or stand alone software
Answer:	This is for our Windows and this includes a Bluetooth headset. We have a different model for a Mac. For any question or for more information feel free to contact us at 1-877-503-8844
