Here is information for setting up Connection Magic and Bridge Mobile if anyone is interested:

I am using the newest update of Bridge Mobile and Version 6.0.0.7.  Go into your user settings in Eclipse, to the realtime tab, then click Add output format.  Select Bridge/LawBridge/Teleview.  For Comm Device, select Connection Magic.  Deselect the box for apply edits.  I have had issues with the realtime output freezing when applying edits, and I've read that others have too.  It works great with that option deselected. 

When you translate a file, in your Translate Notes window, select Realtime and Share Document with Connection Magic.  (It's right under Phonetic Untranslates.)  Once you have selected the name of your file and hit OK to start the translation, a window will pop up with Session Settings.  It will have Session Name, BR-(file name)-(date).  Enter a password that you will supply to attorneys or you will use on your loaner iPads to view the realtime session.  Select the box for Publicy Visible.  You will also have another window pop up for the Connection Magic edit file (if a scopist was to log on.)  I haven't been making the ED file publicly visible since I haven't started working with scopists on Connection Magic yet.    On your iPads, go to the Bridge Mobile site,

http://connect.eclipsecat.com/test/BridgeMobile.html. 

Select the lightning bolt to bring up the list of files and select your BR file, enter the password you created, then connect.

Anybody ever close out a case and have it just disappear?  I haven't got a clue what happened, but I went to back up the job before I left and the only thing there was my .wav file (Thank Buddha!!!)  I thought that maybe I'd somehow managed to move it somewhere inadvertently when I was backing it up -- nowhere.

I called tech support, and they were very nonchalant about it:  You've got 9 backup files, what are you worried about?  And the backup worked like a charm, plus I had the Diamante file and I knew I could recreate it.  But I lost all my job defines -- and it's just plain weird!

I don't think I closed the file without stopping the translation because I don't think you can, for one thing.  And secondly, I think I'd remember getting that "Do you want to stop the translation?" window that pops up when you try to do that.  But closing the file without stopping the RT is all I can think of.

Any ideas what could cause this?  I'd rather not do it again, even with a bazillion backups.

If you go to the Help section of Eclipse and type in "literal case," then click on the choices, you'll see the whole shebang.

Kelli, I just tried defining eBay at the beginning of a sentence and the only way I could get the e to stay lower case was by using the Sh+Ctrl+C command.  Typing in the bracket info didn't work for me (tried it using both lower case L and pipes).

French (or curly) braces are used in globaling and are understood by Eclipse as commands to do a certain thing, in this case keeping everything between the two {} expressions lowercase no matter where in the sentence it begins.  The first {} turns it on, the {} turns it off.  In {I1)e{10}Bay, the lowercase L stands for "literal."  The zero in the second expression turns the literal case off.

If you wanted to italicize something, you would do something similar:  {i)The Kelli Diaries{n} where the {i} turns italics on and {n} returns text to normal font thereafter.  That's a lowercase I (for italics)

Pipe symbol, the straight up-and-down |, is a programming command to do a different kind of operation, often acting on the word before or after the |.

Hmm.  Well, they are Ls in my version.  Here's the help text:

Literal Case and Dictionary Entries

The above steps pertain only to text files that are used as scripts. You can also insert literal case commands into dictionary entries.

To do this, use {l1} to turn Literal Case on, and {l0} to turn it off. That is a lower-case L, followed by a one or zero, in braces. For example, if the dictionary entry is for the word MacDonald and you want the AC to be lower case, the dictionary entry syntax would be: M{l1}ac{l0}Donald

Good to know.  Thanks soooo much!

Actually those are pipes, not Ls.  It explains literal case in the help menu.  Literal case is one of the special commands (or use Shift+Ctrl+C) when defining words.

{l1}e{l0}Bay

In case it's hard to make out, those are brackets, lower case letter L and the numerals one and zero.  I think it's L for literal case.  You just surround whatever letter with those symbols, and you're good to go.

Also useful for iPhone, iPad, iPod--all things i.
