If you receive files through a network, you will be notified that a file is ready to be transcribed by the file Delivery Notification speaker in the top left hand corner of the Quikscribe Player interface.  A green, red, or purple speaker indicates that a file is waiting to be transcribed.  A yellow speaker indicates that no files are waiting to be transcribed.

If you receive files through email, you may open the iaf file attached to the email or save the iaf file to the location from which you transcribe files.
You may use either your headset or your speakers to listen to an audio file.  To open and transcribe an audio file that you have received:

1. Open Quikscribe Player.

2. Click the Open a New Audio File icon.
