Hi Katariina,

When you installed Studio, which profile did you choose? Trados or Default? If Default then your shortcuts should work. If Trados then you'll have shortcuts as they used to be with Trados 2007 ;-)

To check or change this, go to File>Setup>Manage user profiles:

If the current user profile isn't 'Default' then click 'Change user profile' and change it.

If this doesn't work or it is already set to 'Default', try going to File>Options>Keyboard Shortcuts then click 'Reset to Defaults'. If the installation process went wrong for some reason, this may sort things out.

Another possibility is to do a Windows repair on Studio. Shouldn't be necessary straight after installation but here's how:

1. Close all SDL applications.
2. Open the Control Panel:
   • Windows Vista/7: Start > Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features.
   • Windows 8: Right-click on the screen at bottom-left corner and choose Control Panel > Uninstall a Program.
   • Windows 10: Right-click on Start > Control Panel > Select View by: Small Icons > Programs and Features.
3. Click/highlight SDL Trados Studio 2014 and click Repair on the top toolbar or in the dropdown if you right-click.
4. Restart Studio.

I hope some of this helps!

All the best,

Alison

Hi Jerzy,

Ah, OK, I understand you were suggesting what logically could cause F3 not to work.

I think Katariina is having problems with more than just the one shortcut. Would resetting the window layout make a difference, do you think?

Also, Katariina, are you sure that your keyboard is working OK? Do your shortcut keys work in other programs?

All the best,

Ali :)
