Dragon Dictate for iPad2 in New Zealand ?

I would really appreciate feedback, confirmation and assistance with the following query.
I have recently just got an iPad 2 and live here in New Zealand and really want to get Dragon Dictate, however, when I go to any link on the Internet and then go to the iTunes Store, I am told that my request could not be completed ?
Is Dragon Dictate available in New Zealand for iPad 2 users ?
If it is I would really appreciate some assistance locating this product that I greatly need as I am unable to use my right arm for continuous typing.
I look forward very much to hearing people's feedback and assistance on this matter.

Open the app store link on your iPad.
See the icon on the bottom, the one of a magnifying glass that says "search" under it, press it.
In the text box type "dragon dictate" and press the blue search button.
If the app does not show in the results, it's not available.

  • Problems using Dragon Dictate for Mac.

    I used Dragon Naturally Speaking for years on my PC.  Switched to an IMac.  Dragon for Mac leaves a lot to be desired - training, recognizing, editing.  Any suggestions about how to improve performance or other voice recognition software for Mac users?  I dictate a lot of reports using MS Word.

    First of all I have no expertise in installing programs if they are problematic, I can only pass on my experience which relates to trying to purchase and install an Upgrade from MacSpeech Dictate 1.5 to Dragon Dictate 2.5 and the past experience I have had with MacSpeech, the company before Nuance.
    The 800-number doesn't get you to Technical Support and I think I was hung up on as well.  The wait for technical support was about 10 minutes.  If you are paying for the phone call by the minute that could be costly.
    Technical Support
    781-565-4960
    The tech was patient and his directions were easy to follow.  He logged into my screen using Join Me and if you find that too invasive, it may also be a reason not to continue with Dictate.
    Do I understand that you purchased a physical copy of the program on disk? Was it as an Upgrade that Nuance shipped to you?  And it wouldn't let you register the product?  The other criticism I had of MacSpeech and it seems to have carried on to Nuance was that the matter of accounts and registration accounts can be a forest. 
    The website to register the program is www.macspeech.com/licenses/. (There is another site for registering other Nuance products but it doesn't recognize your account for products that have been registered on the MaSspeech site.).To register the product you will need to set up an account (not an uncommon process) but that account will not be the way you access the download if you purchase the product by digital copy.If you purchase the program as a physical copy, I would suggest you register the product before you start installing but it really shouldn't be necessary because the program will prompt you to register if the install goes well.
    I can't recall which identification they asked for when I called technical services - the product code, the order number, or my registration account but I was prepared with all of them.
    Once you do register a program, the code can be accessed in the future if you keep track of the account and website on which you registered it.  I see there is also an option which downloads the code to your computer but heaven-knows-where it is stored.  On some other programs the code is stored in the application icon menu. My account on the Macspeech registration website stores the codes for 3 programs I have had since Nuance took over from MacSpeech.
    If you have purchased a physical copy and the registration site I listed above won't let you register it, I would call the 800-number which is
    Customer Service
    800-654-1187
    What I was trying to do was purchase the Upgrade of Dragon Dictate 2.5 as the result of an email offer because I was a previous customer of MacSpeech Dictate 1.5.  The website only seemed to offer to send me a physical copy with shipping of either $24 or $30 to Canada. When I decided I wouldn't buy the Upgrade because of the shipping cost, I found that I couldn't remove the item from the shopping cart and eventually couldn't even access the shopping cart.  When I called the 800-number to complain they told me there was a problem on the website which wasn't offering the download which was my preference.  They offered to sell me the digital download over the phone which I could then retrieve from the website www.findmyorder.com with the login which asks for the order number and a password (which I think was assigned when I placed the order, but as I said, registration, download access, etc can be a forest and I was very confused by this time.)
    At the www.findmyorder.com website, there were two files to download, the program for 2.5 and the data disk. When I tried to install the program and the data, the process started going around in circles asking for things over and over again.I wondered what I was doing wrong (a common reaction) so I tried to install the program on another computer.  The install on the second computer was easy and although I hadn't yet registered the product the program prompted me to register it. It also updated to 2.5.1 (although I only am aware of that in retrospect.)  So I went back to the first computer and tried to install again. The same problem happened.  At one point I exceeded the number of downloads which is 5 because I was trying to get rid of downloads that didn't seem to be working.  I called the 800-number and without too much difficulty, the person reset the downloads.  But the same thing happened, with the program asking for the data disk.  That is when I called Tech Support.
    After the tech showed me where to retrieve 2.5.1 from their website (because he said 2.5 was buggy) and I reinstalled the data disk from the www.findmyorder.com website, the install worked well.  BTW I found it hard to understand on the www.findmyorder.com download website which file was which.  I got very confused and ended up not getting the data disk.  The program disk image which is listed second is called Dragon_Dictate_Englishes.2.5.dmg.  The data file listed first is Dragon_English_Data2.5dmg.  You need both files normally but if you are getting the 2.5.1 file, I don't believe you have to have installed 2.5 first.
    In retrospect I may have not understood how to install the two files - the program file and the data file but I can't remember exactly what was happening. By that time I was pretty lost.
    Back to MacSpeech Dictate 1 or 1.5, I assumed that I would have to have this installed on my computer in order to install the Upgrade of Dragon Dictate 2.5. Remember, I was trying to install 2.5 on a new computer. Although I had done this before I tried to purchase the Upgrade 2.5 (because the computer was new and MacSpeech 1.5 hadn't been installed on it yet), I am not sure it was necessary.
    There didn't seem to be any "secret codes" that hadn't to be removed first.  You may be talking about old or corrupted plist files which sometimes interfere with applications.  The tech just told me to drag any 2.5 applications to the trash after we got off the phone, of which by now I had about 5 on the computer.  I have had old versions on a previous computer and they never seemed to interfere with one another. I think I still have iListen 1.0 on a very old computer as well as every fresh version and upgrade.
    I hope this reply wasn't too long and didn't add to the confusion.  As I said in the first message, the criticisms are well founded.  Installing MacSpeech iListen and accessing services has been a minefield from the beginning and it isn't improving.  For someone interested in easy-to-use voice recognition I would suggest the Dragon Dictate app for an iPad or iPod Touch.  Works wonderfully but it has very limited features.
    My husband, who has physical disabilities but until recently could type better than MacSpeech Dictate was working for him and didn't have a computer that would work with MacSpeech Dictate, has been using Dragon Dictate 2.5.1 on his new computer without a microphone for a couple of days.  He believes there is hope, although with past versions he was frustrated after an hour and quit.  One new thing in Dragon Dictate 2.5 is that editing on the keyboard before you finish the document does not mess up further voice input.  He continues to struggle with voice control (a good exercise for the voice) and his tendency to talk as if there he has a secretary taking shorthand.  You really do have to talk to the computer in a conversational way, speaking in full sentences or full phrases if possible, not in separate words.
    From iListen 1.0 I kept saying that voice recognition would work well for everyone.  It has been a long road but I can see on the horizon that it will be available for everyone.  The iPad/iPod app is close.

  • Why no Clementine Orange 11s for Australia or New Zealand?

    Hello
    I'm happy with my 11s - first new laptop for some time; but a big selling point was the Clementine Orange colouring.
    I was told by my retailer that orange was only available online and wasn't available in NZ or Australia by retail outlet.
    I want to support local jobs, so I went ahead with the retail purchase and decided to buy at least the lower outer case in Clementine Orange, which appears to be something I can replace myself pretty easily.  The upper lid I am having painted by an artist.
    I see from Lenovo's site pages that it doesn't make the orange cases available (specifically?) in our two countries and don't understand the cause of this discrimination. It doesn't help that the box the laptop comes in shows the much more enticing Clementine Orange version, which if it is banned here, rubs salt into the wound...
    I get that ordering new outer cases is moderately unusual, however, surely it's good for business if I am willing to lash out extra cash to get what should be readily available anyway and I'm guessing from posts elsewhere I'm not alone.
    Thanks,
    Zoom

    63 views and no answer. I expect that at least some of these views will be from Lenovo people, so I'll ask that question again:
    Why are customers in Australia and New Zealand excluded from being able to purchase a Clementine Orange Yoga?
    My money should be as good as anyone's.

  • Q10 APN settings for 2degrees in New Zealand

    Hello I've just purchased a new Q10 and I've been able to get everything working fine on WiFi, however I've not been able to get the data to work when using my 2degrees (GSM.EDGE/3G-UMTS) carrier in New Zealand. I can make and recieve calls and txt but the data won't work for browsing or Activesync emails. My SIM card has a 1 GB data plan and used to work fine on my Windows 8 phone and previous Andriod handsets. I 've alos tried the usual APN settings = "internet" Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi.  Good question and to be honest I don't know the answer as I'm not a user of BBM. The only other suggestion I can make is to update to a later firmware leak.  I'm currently running 10.2.1.176 on a Z10 and Q5 and Q10 which seems to work fine however I can't say I use BBM.  I do know that when using a Vodafone NZ sim (prepay and on-account) that BBM does work.  This may not help your 2degrees issue though.
    Try a later version of firmware first and see how that goes.  Make sure you do a full backup to a PC/laptop in the first instance.

  • Ipad2 in New Zealand

    if you buy ipad2 wifi+3g in USA and bring it to New Zealand, can you be able to use it with the network in NZ? or do I have to unlock it somehow?

    If you buy the AT&T version in the USA it should be fine on the 3G network in NZ.
    iPad are not locked to any networks, but make sure you DON'T buy the Verizon version as that will NOT work in NZ.

  • Can I get Siri to search for places in new zealand

    Can I set up Siri to search for places in nz when using maps

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Has anyone tried running Dragon NaturallySpeaking (for Windows) on Mac Mavericks?

    Has anyone tried running Dragon NaturallySpeaking (for Windows) on Mac Mavericks? I have finally given up on Dragon Dictate for Mac, which alas, after years of buying every new updated version, is still exceedingly buggy and does not begin to compare in quality to the PC version. I love my Mac, and don't like my PC at all, but the third-party  voice  dictation software for Mac is so pathetic, that I have wound up dictating on my PC, and then sending it to my Mac: an truly annoying and Baroque process. I was able to train over 120 words in Sanskrit word perfect on Dragon NaturallySpeaking, but on Dragon Dictate for Mac, I can't even get it to train my name. I know this is not an Apple problem, but I'm trying to find a way around by possibly running the DNS version on Windows on my iMac.
    I have a hand disability, so I really do need to use voice dictation, both for dictating and navigating on my computer.
    If anyone is doing this, are you using Boot Camp, VM fusion, or Parallels? How well does it work? Has anyone discovered anything else I ought to be considering, before giving this a try? I had tried running this on an old on 2008 iMac (with much less power), using Parallels, but it was incredibly slow. Now that I have a much more powerful iMac, I'm wondering whether it would be worth another try. As it will be quite an investment to purchase all this third-party software to get Dragon up and running, I was hoping to get a sense of how well it works, before plunking down the cash. I would be extremely grateful for helpful feedback.

    You cannot run a Windows application on a Mac unless you run Windows on the Mac.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
         1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows
             XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  For Boot Camp
             4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
             instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
             installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
             installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the
             computer into OS X or Windows.
         2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
             Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software
             virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
             with OS X.
         3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
             or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that
             enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
         4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
             applications without having to install Windows.  The
             Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
         5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
             as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
             It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
             Fusion.
    Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Mid Year Go Live-Australia and New Zealand

    Hi,
    We are implementing Mid Year Go Live for payroll for Australia and New Zealand.
    In case of India, we have schema INLK and list of technical wage types that need to be uploaded to T558B and T558C.
    SAP has delivered a note for Payroll India which gives the list of Technical wage types.
    Pls suggest what are the technical wage types to be uploaded for Australia and New Zealand and the schema to be used for Mid Year Go Live.
    Regards
    Yashika

    Hi,
    as far as i know, there is no such schema or special wage types except the ones that are used for LSMW before go live.
    In india, they might need the schema or technical wagetypes for the taxation purposes i guess which is different from AU or NZ.
    but australia/newzealand have simplified the taxation for software provides.

  • Maverick Dictation-  or Dragon dictate-Which is better?

    I've used Dragon dictate products since 2005 on PC's and then Macs. I want to know any advantages in switching to Maverick Dictation. Please advise.

    I have been using Dragon Dictate for some time.  The initial training took about half an hour, after which it had a very high accuracy rate in recognizing my own voice.  I appreciated being able to specify the accent of which English I was speaking -- North American mid north continent -- or something like that.  It got pretty close to the general accent of English as spoken in Manitoba, and the voice training seemed to round out the fine details.  It did not train for slang expressions, such as our habit of ending many phrases with "eh?", but I suppose I could train it to do so, eh?
    I liked that Dragon Dictate did not have to go back to a central server somewhere every time I wanted to use it.  As I recall, it gave me an 'enhanced" option similar to the Mavericks option. 
    I am still learning how to enter the command mode and easily switch back and forth between dictate mode and command mode.  The dictation is very easy.  The commands take a significant learning curve.
    I appreciate also that I can dictate text into almost any app, document, spreadsheet, web page, and so on.  I had a lot of typing to do (and I type about 80 words a minute), and decided that I needed to learn to use my voice to dictate text, in addition to simply typing.  I talk slightly faster than I can type.  Being naturally long-winded, dictating text fills up more space than typing words. 
    I will be testing Mavericks Dictate in the near future to get a better idea of how the two compare.

  • How can I set up my iPad to work wirelessly in New Zealand?

    We are going to stay at our parent's place in New Zealand, and they have only a very slow dial-up connection to the internet. 
    We want to take our Apple iPad 4, MacBook 4.1.1 and iPhone 4 and use them wirelessly while we are there.
    Last time we used the macBook to connect, but it was so maddeningly slow and we had to disconnect their phone, and  feel there must be a better way. 
    Does anyone know how we can log on via the ipad without having to go up to the local library?

    You need the first Internet connection in order to share another connection with the other devices. If you use the Mac and Internet Sharing, then the connection is only going to be as fast as that connection and maybe a little slower since you are all sharing that connection.
    You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear as the saying goes, you cannot speed up the connection by any magical means.
    You should be able to use the personal hotspot feature on the phone if the carriers there support it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4517
    You might want to look into a MIFI hotspot as well but once again, you would need some sort of plan for it in New Zealand.

    I want to crossgrade my Photoshop from my PC to my Mac, however in the instructions on the Adobe site, it says to go to the support portal, however there is not an option for my country (New Zealand) and so none of the links work. This tends to suggest that I cannot crossgrade my product. Can anyone offer an insight into whether I can or can't crossgrade - and if I can, how?

    Currently only perpetual CS6 can get a platform switch from Adobe.  Subscription applications can be used on either platform. Only current version of perpetual Adobe product can be platform switched as far as I know the only link I have is Order product | Platform, language swap
    Don't know if there is a different link for New Zealand.

  • Why can't I get Dragon Dictation app in New Zealand?

    I have read in many publications about the app Dragon Dictation which I would like to have but it does not seem to exist here in New Zealand. I think it is available in Australia. Can someone please tell me how I can get it in New Zealand? Thank you.

    Thanks for that, however there is no Apps store in N.Z. we get all our apps from the U.S. I think. Can get all other apps I have wanted just not Dragon Dictation.

  • I purchased an iPad2 in the US. What do I need to charge & use it in Australia & New Zealand?

    I purchased an iPad2 in the US. What do I need to use it & charge it while traveling in Australia & New Zealand?

    If it's 3G, and the AT&T version, then you will need local micro-sims in those 2 countries if you want to be able to use 3G whilst there (and avoid potenial roaming costs with AT&T).
    For charging you should just need plug adapters - my UK charger has 100 to 240 v (50 and 60hz) in faint grey writing on it, and I believe both NZ and Australia are 230 V  50 hz so you shouldn't need a converter.
