Hello,

I understand that you're experiencing an issue with saving new abbreviations in your TM settings. I'm sorry to hear that you're facing this problem. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:

Step 1: Make sure you're using the latest version of Trados Studio. Check for updates within the application and install any available updates.

Step 2: Create a backup of your current TM before making any changes.

Step 3: Try exporting your TM as a TMX file, then create a new TM and import the TMX file into the new TM. This may help resolve any potential issues with the original TM.

Step 4: If the issue persists, consider using the "Apply TM Template" plugin available in the RWS AppStore. This plugin allows you to export and import abbreviation lists, which might help you manage your abbreviations more effectively.

Step 5: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you may want to consider reaching out to RWS Support for further assistance.

I hope these steps help you resolve the issue with saving new abbreviations in your TM settings. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.

Best regards,

steps 2 and 3 are time-consuming. Simply the actual problem must to be solved, but not a way out found.

I apologize if the previous suggestions were not helpful. Let's try a different approach to address the issue with saving new abbreviations in your TM settings:

Step 1: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to modify the TM. If you're working with a shared TM or a TM located on a network drive, make sure you have write access to the TM file.

Step 2: Check if there are any issues with the TM file itself. You can do this by creating a new TM and adding abbreviations to it. If the new TM works as expected, there might be an issue with the original TM file.

Step 3: If you're using Trados Studio 2021, you can export and import the Abbreviations list from the Language Resources of your Translation Memory (TM). This can help you manage your abbreviations more effectively. For more information, refer to the Trados Studio documentation on editing the Abbreviations list.

Step 4: If you're using Trados Studio 2017 or 2019, consider using the "Apply TM Template" plugin available in the RWS AppStore. This plugin allows you to export and import abbreviation lists, which might help you manage your abbreviations more effectively.

Step 5: If the issue persists, it might be a bug in the software. In this case, you should report the issue to RWS Support for further investigation and assistance.

I hope these steps help you resolve the issue with saving new abbreviations in your TM settings. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.
