Post title: Confirm vs Commit
Hi Susanne,
Confirm/Unconfirm in Wordfast does not write translation to TM, it merely marks the segment don't add it to TM
Use Commit/Commit All to add translation to TM or use Next Segment while going segment by segment. Before committing if you have unconfirmed segments (see asterisk on Outline) then do Confirm all from Translation Memory menu. Once this is done your segment should commit to TM using Commit or Next Segment actions.
Let us know if this helped or you can email me at [email removed]
Thank you,
John

I recently bought a new laptop (because my old one broke) and I have installed Wordfast Pro 3 an relicensed it. The licensing seems to have gone OK but I'm still not able to use Wordfast because I can't confirm segments. I can type in a translation but it is impossible to save it to a TM or use a TM/glossary for that matter. I have Wordfast installed on one other machine and my broken laptop (which I don't have access to anymore) so I assume that me trying to use it on a third computer is the issue.
Does anybody have any experience with this and do I need to apply for relicensing and if so how? The Hotline doesn't seem to respond to any queries.
Many thanks! [/quote]
