I'm a bit lost knowing what you are trying to log into.

when I try to open the Trados Help, the same username and password do not work.

You don't need to login to get to the Trados help documentation.  Where are you trying this from?  The help link in the ribbon should tae you here:

https://docs.rws.com/980998/346547/trados-studio-2022/getting-started-with-------------trados-studio

Does that link work for you?

when I select the Help > Forums button, I get an error message saying something like "The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure"

This may be related to the version of Studio you are using as we switched to https at some point and older versions of Studio won't have this fix.  What version are you using?  It should just open up the forums in Studio so you can post directly from there:

When I try the Tutorial button, I am immediately logged in. 

The tutorial links take you to a youtube site, again another site altogether and one that doesn't require a login:

https://www.youtube.com/user/sdltrados

The only one that requires credentials is the forums since this needs you to be logged in if you wish to post.

Thanks, Paul, for your swift efforts to help. (As usual.) 

However, you say:

"You don't need to login to get to the Trados help documentation.  Where are you trying this from?  The help link in the ribbon should take you here"

This the button I click:

and this is where I arrive:

with this image:

where my usual username and password are rejected. Strange, isn't it? (The URL you quote works fine, only the button doesn't take me there.)

My Studio version is 2022 - 17.0.0.11594.

All other links on the Help ribbon work fine (except, as I said, the Forums button), as far as I have tried them. So I have no problem reaching either the Help texts or the Forums or the Community, it's just that these two glitches I have described are irritating (and might affect other users too).

Try updating Studio.  The current production releases are Trados Studio 2022 - 17.0.4.13209, and MultiTerm 2022 - 17.0.0.1685.

It may be that some changes since the release you have resolved these things, or were changed to accommodate changes that occurred since the original release.

I should add that the Tridion Docs login pane above appears also when I click the Help button in any Studio dialog, which is really irritating.

Points towards you needing to upgrade I think.

Have updated. The Help > Forums link now works. Unfortunately, the Help > Help Topics button and the Help button in the dialogs still lead to the same Tridion Docs login panel shown above.
