when my TM stopped working.

What did stop working on the TM?

Is the TM attached to the Project Settings? Could you please post a screenshot, something like this?

Hi Jesús

Thanks a lot for replying!

Let me try to explain the "TM stopped working" thing.

The field that used to show translation results (from the TM) went blank. All it showed was this message "no matches found or no lookup performed" (in the print below). I mean the place above the source and target segment columns.

Now, yesterday I created another project to translate documents from the same material. For this new project, I used  the same TM and termbase as in the previous one in the print, and also NMT, like the previous. The results field now shows results normally. But it's not suggesting translations that I had confirmed in the previous project. AND in windows explorer, the latest change shown for this TM is 11/21/2023. So it's not saving when I confirm segments, I guess...

I'm still at a loss. I'm being able to use Trados and the termbase, and that helps, but apparently the TM is still not in its normal use.

After this print, I'm including one from 'project settings'.

Hope this provides some clue. And thanks a lot for the reply!

Do you see the Update checkbox on the right hand side unticked? It should be tick in order for that TM to get updated every time you confirm a segment.

Tick it, then confirm again segment #1, and I guess the Translation Results window will show something when segment #2 is selected (because it’s the same contect as segment #1).

Jesús Prieto,

Yes, it worked! Thank you so much!

Now, it must have unticked itself off, I never touch this checkbox when I'm setting up a project or in any other time. But now I think I know what to do if it happens again.

Thanks a lot, Jesús!

Best,

Fernando
